A year later, she took our family's pictures for our son's one year birthday (cake smash) as well as for the holiday cards. She has a studio at her home with plenty of snacks while you do your sessions. It's also heated for those chillier winter months. The props she has are amazing and add a lovely style to her photos. She has a natural talent for finding perfect poses and the experience to get great angles. She also does locations other than her studio for photo shoots. For our maternity pictures we were at the beach and for our family pics we went to a hiking trail. She's able to taylor yo meet your needs. Her turnover to get pictures back to you is always quicker than she stated which is so lovely (especially when you want to get out holiday cards!) I highly recommend Jessica for her stellar services! You won't be disappointed! Loop

We were quite nervous, as our son isn't exactly always cooperative, but Jessica wasn't frazzled in the least, and just totally put our minds at ease. Even though it seemed like our son cried for most of the shoot (toddlers!), Jessica promised she got tons of great shots of him smiling, and she DID! We were so pleasantly surprised when we saw the photos, ha! Jessica was fantastic to work with from the very beginning, offering lots of help with wardrobe choices, location choices, etc. We couldn't be happier with the outcome of our photoshoot and can't wait to hire Jessica again for more photos :) Thank you, Jessica!!!!

There aren't enough words of praise in the English language for Shaun of Top Shelf Photo! We were…read morelucky enough to find him on Yelp for our engagement photos, and in mid-November of 2024 he braved the chill of Palomar Mountain to take spectacular photos of us. Nonstop compliments from friends and family, and received much quicker than anticipated. Once we got into wedding planning, Shaun was the obvious choice for our photography needs. Along with his second shooter Jess (Jessica Christie Photography), he again knocked it out of the park. Couldn't have asked for more perfect photos. On a more personal note, Shaun is the above-and-beyond type of person to take the absolute best shots possible. Like, fixing the boutonniere on my suit himself for the exact right angle, or gently shoo'ing away stinkbugs while helping my wife to re-tie her wedding shoes type of person. His passion and dedication for his craft are inspiring, and I guarantee if you don't love being in photos as a general rule (like myself) he will absolutely put you at ease and make it look like you've been modeling all your life. Thank you for everything Shaun, from the bottom of our hearts.

Working with Ashley was amazing. I've know Ashley for years and seeing her vision and creative…read moretalent come to life was beyond what I envisioned. My husband and I met Ashley in Oceanside beach for our session. Ashley was very flexible with time and was prompt with responses. Ashley took time to create a vision for what we wanted. And more importantly, she wanted our engagement shoot to tell our story. That's so important in photography and intimate photos that will last. She had a few suggestions for us as far as attire and poses. We have never taken professional photos before but Ashley made it seem no natural for us. Ashley didn't end when the allotted what suppose to end. She showed her true art by making sure I was happy with the photos and took a few extras to my benefit. I can not remember specifically but I think we went an hour past our time without Ashley even reminding us our time was over. At the time Ashley was seven months pregnant and still climbing rocks to make sure we have the best angles and sun. Ashley takes her work personal and puts her finest details into the expression of the photos. We recommend her to anyone looking for awesome engagement photos :) Thanks again Ashley!

So this is a very long over due review..... the first time my husband and I shot with Ashley was…read moreback in October of 2016. I came to Ashley with not your typical request, I was pregnant and wanted her to capture the moment I told my husband he was going to be a daddy. Ashley's excitement about my request warmed my heart. I will forever be grateful to her for not only agreeing to be part of my surprise but also keeping my big secret. I couldn't be happier with the photos Ashely captured. Fast forward to June 2018 and we had the opportunity to shoot with Ashley again. She did a mini session with us for our little girls first birthday and also documenting my second pregnancy. Anyone who has a one year old knows how hard it can be to get them to sit still for anything especially photos but Ashley handled it like a champ. She got some amazing photos of our little girl that I'll cherish forever. We look forward to working with Ashley again!

The "journey" Carrie Anne set me on leading up to the actual boudoir session was arguably a bigger part of the photo shoot for me. ;) Carrie had a time line of to-do's for me, websites for garments I might want to buy, soooo much I wasn't expecting. And on the way, I found a new comfort with myself. By the time I got to Carrie Anne's for the photography... I was ready for this! I brought extra outfits and accessories and Carrie Anne helped me dial it in for an unforgettable experience. It's been about 3 years since my session and I still recall it like yesterday. I am close to 60 and have never felt so good about myself - not in a vain way. I was absolutely comfortable with me. Carrie Anne has a beautiful way about her. She'll set you at ease, and make this moment an unforgettable and personal experience. DO IT - you'll be happy you did. (Thank you, Carrie Anne!)

Carrie Anne is an absolute gem…read more I had wanted to do a boudoir shoot for years but kept putting it off because I was nervous. She made the entire experience feel so safe, fun, and empowering. From the moment you book, she listens to what you want and guides you every step of the way. And during the shoot? Her posing direction is everything. You never feel awkward. She is insanely talented. Even the unedited photos are unreal. Honestly, the hardest part is narrowing down your favorites because you will want them all. If you are even thinking about booking, just do it. Trust.

I found Tiffany on linked in. I had spoken to about four other photographers. I wanted professional…read moreand branding photos that were not stuffy or boring. The first thing I noticed about Tiffany was her speed of response and how accurate she was in describing what she did, how long it took, where to do it and what it cost. Then came the emails and the texts with examples and a to-do list. I was to send her pictures of myself in outfits - and she commented on each one with her professional eye and we chose three. She was also incredibly flexible on where to shoot. On the day of the shoot, I was incredibly surprised at her eye to detail, willingness to take a million shots, constant change in her own positions and the ease with which she made me feel at home. It did not end there. A week later, I had a zoom apt with her that blew me away. I wanted to buy all of them but decided on five. Just excellent work! Tiffany is amazing - I am hoping soon I can get my entire team's shots with her. Thank you Tiffany!
