In August I was looking for a photographer around Lake Tahoe to do family pictures after Christmas…read more I received a few recommendations for Rachel on Facebook. She contacted me immediately after my inquiry. I told her what I wanted (I was born in Tahoe and lived there until I was 17). She recommended where and I knew right then she was meant to be my photographer because she named a place my grandpa was part owner in and I spent a lot of my childhood there. We had a great session and she made it fun! I just got our pictures back and could not be more pleased! They are fabulous!! If you are looking for a photographer who listens to what you want, is enjoyable to be around and takes great pics in the most beautiful place on earth - Rachel Lomeli is the right person! You won't be disappointed!!! Thank you Rachel!!

We found Michael on Thumbtack and went out on a limb and hired him for our wedding (we hadn't used…read moreThumbtack before). We were glad we found him - everything was professional and timely. He delivered on all of his promises and wasn't the most expensive option (not the least expensive, though...). He was able to meet the special photography rules that the church had asked us to follow and he coached us throughout the reception on when and where to get great shots. He doesn't list his physical address, but he is licensed in Nevada: Business License - NV20151215225 A very pleasant and professional man to work with. I will hire him again if needed.

I didn't know how long it would take to get all the photos I wanted, so I hired him for up to 4 hours. We were done in 1 1/2. He was so reasonable! He had all the pics to us by that same night and we were able to review them as a family before the kids went back to their own worlds. We were so grateful and had so much fun with him! We have called him to do the wedding for one of the 4 in January 2017. I'll be back to write another review. It's nice when someone does a great job to take the time and review them... especially when there aren't very many reviews out.

The biggest challenge for our wedding (3 months ago) was finding the right photographer. This was…read moredue in large part to me being a *former* professional photographer, having spent several years as a wedding photographer myself, and being represented by the world's top agency, Getty Images. My standards were such that I probably wouldn't even be pleased if I shot the wedding myself!! My search for perfection frustrated my wife to no end... until a friend introduced us to Tim Halberg. Tim is relatively new to the Bay Area, having moved up from Santa Barbara where he started his business after attending the prestigious Brooks Institute of Photography. His work was an instant match for our wedding: Timeless, classy and, true to his brand, "Adventurous, Playful, Indulgent." Tim was an absolute delight to "work" with, and his photography is just perfect for helping us share and remember our wedding for the rest of our lives. Thanks Tim!

We cannot thank Tim and Cheryl enough for the most amazing photos from our wedding day…read more Planning an intimate destination wedding in Santa Barbara (Sept 2012) we knew we wanted a photographer who could capture the memories for us to share with our family and friends back home. Being a bit OCD, I interviewed over 70 photographers (seriously) and words cannot even begin to express how happy we are that Tim and Cheryl were there on our special day!! Tim and Cheryl are fun and professional they quickly put us at ease on our wedding day. They captured so many incredible moments and surprised us with some priceless ones of our families that we cannot even thank them enough for the brilliant photography!! Tim's photos not only captured the day but shared the memories and story of our wedding. Nearly a year later we still get comments on how beautiful our photos are. A close friend shared she still keeps our thank you card at her desk because the photos are so captivating and showcase our personalities and love for each other. We will forever be indebted to Tim and Cheryl. Thank you! I cannot recommend their talent enough they are phenomenal!!

I grew up in a large Mexican-American family in Northern Nevada and have been exposed to two things since a young age - nature and a whole lotta love. This influence translated into my work when I picked up my first camera. I specialize in providing bold, beautiful backdrops and genuine emotions inspire me. That's the feel and style I pursue in my work; if our visions align, let's connect and create beautiful art together.

They are good photographers, but when I called for a new appointment they said you can just walk in…read morewith no appointment. So the next day (Wednesday) I walk in as instructed. Well, as it turns out, they are not open Wednesday unless you have an appointment. I am not a mind reader, and you would think that by calling in advance I would be told what to do by the owner. I drove 25 minutes to get there and had to go to another location that actually was open instead. That sort of inconsideration is not acceptable.

The one thing we would recommend would be listing out and confirming groupings and pairings with the photographers for family/bridal portraits, especially for bigger families. We felt that we missed out on some opportunities to capture specific groupings of family and bridal party which turned out to be a bit of a bummer. We would highly recommend Melanie and Andrew to anyone in the Grass Valley area.

We originally wanted to have our pictures taken at Lake Tahoe, but weather didn't permit so we got creative and took pictures in her studio. It was quite fun taking so many pictures under her guidance. The studio is cozy and welcoming. She also has a good number of beautiful props and many dresses to choose from. I borrowed 3 of her dresses and also used one of my own. She has quite a collection! They are not your typical flashy maternity gowns but very classy and very much timeless. Definitely consider Christie if you're thinking about maternity photoshoot!

This was definitely the right decision for us!! Daniel knows the area very well & knew exactly where to meet for her pictures. He arrived on time, the meadow was an amazing choice! He captured the light beautifully setting behind the trees but keeping my daughter the spotlight. He was great with hand placement & we were very comfortable with him. And the pictures turned out FANTASTIC! He delivered the sneak peak just as he said he would, followed up with the edited pictures for us in a timely manner. If he were closer to us (we are in Illinois), we would use him for all of our pictures.
