I searched high and low for someone who could take heirloom portraits for my little one. I…read morecontacted 3 photographers and Cristal was the only one that contacted me immediately through text. Heirloom portraits are more of a southern thing so I sent her inspiration pictures for reference. She said she could do it so I ended up booking her for a session. She had tons of props and outfits to choose from. We decided to go the simpler route and opted for no props with a simple white background. The session ended up being 15 minutes (she said she got THE shot). After about a week, Cristal sent me a soft proof gallery with about 75 photos to choose from. I picked my 12 and texted her feedback on the ones I wanted more/less cropped. She also nailed the vignette on the heirloom portraits; it was exactly what I was looking for! She sent me a second gallery with my 12 picks, also including them in B&W and different editing styles (34 total). Cristal had great communication, and will go above and beyond to make sure you love your pictures! I would highly recommend her if you live in the IE area. One tiny note, 4 photos have a faint line at the top. It looks like the editing filter wasn't taken all the way up. With that being said, not the end of the world and would gladly book her again.

From start to finish, she was so easy to work with and genuinely excited to help me pull off the surprise. She helped me plan the perfect spot, and stayed completely transparent with our plans until the big moment. When I popped the question, She captured every single emotion, the shock, the tears, the laughter. All without my partner having any idea she was even there! All of our photos felt so natural and full of joy. If you're thinking about hiring someone for a proposal or engagement shoot, stop searching and just go with Sonja. She made one of the most important moments of our lives truly unforgettable.

She went above and beyond for us and even organized a picnic for my fiancé and I, and it was perfect.

Also, the photos are literally so stunning and she got them back to us quicker than I thought was even possible. She is so amazing and you will not regret booking her!!!

Me and my fiancée are more than happy with the pictures we have received. Attached is just one of the many GREAT pictures she captured.

Do Not Hesitate!!! Book your appointment with Diane as soon as you can!!!…read more I found her on Yelp for my grandsons pictures and so glad I chose her. The home studio is small but perfect for new borns. Original we planned on indoor family shots but decided on front yard. The landscape design for her outdoor shots are incredible. We booked our appointment in mid September & although there were little to almost no blooms and the landscape was changing Diane's color choices and style were perfect. What I really liked was the affordability of her packages. Although I believe it is available for one stop shopping she doesn't require you to purchase prints. Which can take the price upwards of $2k not including the sitting fee. Her photos are not cheap by any means. Her eye for posing new borns is impeccable. The mama & daddy pics are beautiful. Her capturing the family at this special moment is a must!!! Start a Baby Photo Fund for the new mom in your family. Everyone can chip in and the new parents will love it. Capturing your newborn in the first couple weeks is a beautiful little memory that everyone should have. Trust Diane Bartoo Studio to make it happen for your new little one.

They don't take multiple shots of one pose either, so if it's a pose you wanted and anything is off that's it. They should be snapping away to get natural shots of young children smiling, but they don't want to waste their time waiting on you to look through the pics. They cut off hair, feet and other parts. How hard is it to stand back and get a full shot. They just have no experience and the only training they get is in upselling photo packages. I really hate that they force you to pick 2 backgrounds, so be prepared. This studio in particular is REALLY dirty. The backgrounds have stains, the baseboard has stains and once you view your photos at home you can tell. You can't tell from their monitor. The TV for kids doesn't work. Why can't they clean and get the tv to work so children can watch a movie while they wait for you to look through the photos. At least remove it and put a chair in its place. Only go here if you are desperate for some cheap shots. Don't believe their sales lines when they say oh this is soo adorable, that's precious, this is a good one. Most of the poses they have kids do suck. Your kid isn't even smiling and they will say it's a good one. Just tell them no. Trust your gut that the pics suck and just get the 1 or 2 you really want.

He took some family pictures for us earlier on in his career and did a beautiful job. He also took pictures for our son's graduation and did a fun video session for him at the gym. We've had pictures taken by a few companies /individuals and have been let down. I recently moved to Nebraska, had family pictures taken at a studio and was very disappointed. Anthony has really set the bar high for us and is our definitely favorite photographer. He will guide you if you don't know what to do and he will travel to any location to get the shot you want. Don't hesitate to book your next event, photo, video or even a casual night out. You won't regret it. Looks like we will have to fly him out to Nebraska for another family photo at our new house.
