Stephanie was so great to work with. At our first shooting location, we hit a few snags - but she was quick on her feet and wasted no time in getting the shots we needed. She is also very attentive to detail and has an eye for capturing the best lighting and backgrounds. Stephanie never made us feel rushed - she took the time to get the shots we asked for. In the end, we got 10 amazing photos (including headshots and duo portraits) that have already made a huge difference for our agency's brand!

We had such a wonderful experience with Stephanie!

From the moment she arrived, Stephanie made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed -- even the baby! The images turned out stunningly beautiful. She has such an eye for light, composition, and genuine emotion. The hardest part was narrowing down which photos to purchase because I wanted them all! I can't recommend her highly enough.

It's a mixture of that deep experience, and his personality, that makes him someone who brings ease and joy to the wedding day itself. Daniel made us and our guests smile and laugh genuinely as he took our portraits.

We absolutely loved working with Daniel and cannot recommend him highly enough as a wedding…read morephotographer. He exceeded our expectations in every possible way. We did both our complimentary engagement session and our wedding photos with him, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience or the results. Because Daniel knows our venue so well, he immediately guided us to the best locations and lighting for our family portraits and couples' shots. He was professional, kind, and genuinely enjoyable to be around. We're usually people who shy away from the camera, but he had this incredible ability to put us at ease and even make the process fun. He also went above and beyond--offering to come to our after-party to capture a few extra moments. Daniel worked seamlessly with all of our other vendors, which helped the entire day run smoothly. He was always prompt and thoughtful in his communication and even shared helpful vendor recommendations and last-minute wedding day tips. He managed to capture every major moment as well as the small, meaningful ones in a way that felt natural and true to the essence of our day. We absolutely adore our photos, and Daniel is a huge reason why our wedding day felt so special.

She made me feel comfortable and confident behind the camera, has a friendly and easygoing demeanor, and I have some of my favorite photos thanks to her. If you are considering booking Hilary, look no further!

We've had annual family photo sessions with Hilary for the past five years (and even two sessions…read morein one year!), and she has been phenomenal every single time. She's wonderful with our kids--whether it was a newborn, a fussy toddler, or now more cooperative school-aged kids, she's been able to capture beautiful moments through every stage. One year my younger daughter was especially shy and grumpy about photos, but you'd never know it from the gorgeous images Hilary delivered. She's also great with pets and even got our dog to "smile" at the camera for a few shots this year! We included my parents in a session one year, and Hilary handled the larger family group seamlessly. She also has a great eye for locations, whether it's a tried-and-true spot or somewhere new, and she always makes the most of the setting. On top of that, her pricing is very reasonable, especially since you get to keep all the images from your session, and she's always prompt with delivery. Hilary makes family photos stress-free and fun, and the results are consistently stunning--we look forward to working with her every year.

I reached out to John for some help updating my default professional headshot, and really enjoyed…read morethe comprehensive experience he provided me. We went to 4 different outdoor spots around his studio with distinct backdrops, and for each one we iterated on poses and expressions, and he even picked up on some of my facial idiosyncracies in the process. We then went back into his studio and essentially conducted a realtime review session - viewing all the recently captured shots, flagging ones we liked, and ultimately discussing them until we settled on 2 winners. He then applied some minor edits within Lightroom and within 40 minutes from my initial arrival, I had 2 really sharp headshots which will serve me well for the next 5-7 years. John is incredibly personable and also immediately put me at ease. It is easy to feel stiff or self-concious during something like this, and he made it feel like a real partnership. Highly recommend him and his services. Plus the guy is just fun to chat with.
