We couldn't have been happier to have Betsy and Justin capture our engagement and wedding photos…read more I had really high standards (thanks to Pinterest), and Essence Photography far exceeded them. After experiencing engagement/wedding photography, I would actually have to say that the pictures are NOT the most important part. The most important part is how well the photographers and the subjects (us as a couple) work together. We totally dug Betsy and Justin. They are both so low key and relaxed, but at the same time, they get stuff done. They pose you and also take your suggestions for what you'd like to see. They are open to suggestions, but are also professionals, so they know what works and what doesn't work. They have such great personalities and are so good at what they do that my whole family was so appreciative of them on our wedding day. Having photographers with a good personality and disposition is so important, because they help you feel at ease, and therefore, take more beautiful pictures! I also have to say that Betsy is so kind for working with me. I have a pretty direct personality, and sometimes that doesn't always go over well. She was very patient in working with me and always listened to what I was looking for and did her best to accommodate me. I was very appreciative of that! The pictures they took for us will last us a lifetime. They are so beautiful and are also backed by good memories of working with Betsy and Justin. Thank you, Essence Photography!!

To me...the most important part of a wedding comes after, it is the photos. The most important…read morething in life, is photos. That is largely due to the fact that I only remember bad things, and I struggle to keep any memories that are joyful. Life is nothing but moment after moment and I needed someone who would help me always remember. I knew that I would search and search and I would find a way to get the money together to pay for my photographer, whoever they may be. I searched every photographer in California and Nevada. But it is was always Essence. As soon as I saw their site, I knew. Everything about their photos are timeless and quiet, and lovely. If photographer soulmates was a thing, I swear they would be mine! My husband and I were never able to meet Betsy or Justin till the wedding. While Betsy was nothing but kind and wonderful in her emails, I was still a little apprehensive. Mostly, because my husband hates taking photos and I get anxiety from photographer appendage placement instructions! Haha Our wedding, originally in Georgetown, CA, switched to Foresthill, CA, both locations hours from their home, but they didn't mind! Betsy was so understanding and reassuring when I told her of the venue change 4 days before the wedding! (Yeah some madness happened LOL) Come the day of the wedding and Justin and Betsy are sweet, relaxed, fun, and totally in control of the situation! They both provided polite helpful instruction and kept us laughing and smiling the whole time. They really became part of our wedding. They mingled with all of our guests! And all of our guests had nothing but the nicest things to say about them! I don't want to say how quickly we received our photos, in case they can't always achieve that, but holy cow, it was fast! I have heard horror stories of brides getting photos 6-12 months later, but not Essence! :) I didn't cry on my wedding day (hubby didn't want me to and kept making funny faces), but looking back at our beautiful photos I finally get a chance to reflect all the love we have for one another and get a good cry going! I have never encountered a business that I wanted to keep for the rest of my life! We cannot wait for maternity photos and family photos later down the road! So, in short...hire Betsy and Justin, the dream team! They will not disappoint!

I purchased a Groupon deal for the portrait studio in Redding, CA on 3/26/25 which expires on…read more7/25/25. I tried to make an appointment and found I couldn't, so I called the store number and found that all JCPenney Portrait Studios anywhere near where I live are permanently closed. Groupon doesn't want to refund my money because I waited more than three days. I obviously didn't know they were closed since my Groupon stated "Redding CA" in the search bar. Now, after dealing with customer service through Groupon, they are going to get back to my in 4-6 days. Don't buy any coupon services for JCPenney's.

Went in to get baby portraits of my 7 month old. Pictures were OK, not super-awesome but decent…read more One of the shots I otherwise liked had a motion blur. But, DO NOT buy the "high res" digital pics! They are NOT high res! They decrease the resolution to 2400x3000 pixels, which is barely printable at 8x10 size and that means you can't crop or enlarge much of anything. We were not informed of this when we bought the (very expensive) digital package, even though we specifically asked about the resolution of the images we were getting- the lady working there was "not really good at all that technical stuff" (per her own words). When we called to try to resolve the issue, not only were they unable to get us any higher resolution, they also only refunded half in spite of us being given incorrect info for the purchase. The lady who took our pictures was nice enough, but did not have any idea how the software worked or proper knowledge about the products she was selling us. She claimed the motion blur was the way the monitor displayed (it was subtle), and that the pic should be sharp when we got the final version. It was not. Find someone else- these guys are not the kind of business that should get your money.

Diana is such a talented photographer!! We are always so amazed and utterly awestruck by the images…read moreshe captures. She offers mini sessions which are a quick 20 minutes and in such a short time she truly makes magic happen. Her shoots a breeze and just the right amount of time! Diana makes you feel at ease and comfortable, and she's so good at keeping the mood lighthearted and fun. This has really paid off because we've seen her work wonders with a fussy, camera shy toddler and our impatient dog. Without fail, Diana has somehow managed to capture such beautiful moments of our family time and again. Our family photos will be treasured for years to come.

Our photos turned out amazing!!!!! Diana made the whole process so easy. She scouted out locations…read moreahead of time and told us where to meet her and at what time. She had everything needed for the shoot, had a plan, and executed it to perfection while simultaneously implemented all the things we had told her we wanted before the shoot as well. Diana is such a genuine person and made the experience so much fun. She was great with my 4 year old daughter and made her feel extra special during our session. When we received the photos we were blown away by how fantastic they turned out, but not surprised as we had seen her work before and know how talented she truly is. Diana, thank you once again for the overall 10 out of 10 experience, and providing our family photographs that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

Jamie is a fantastic photographer!! I had the greatest experience with her for a boudoir photo…read moreshoot. Before the shoot, I was super nervous - I'd never met Jamie & I was going to be wearing lingerie in front of a camera... what did I get myself into?! However, once I arrived at her studio & talked with her, I felt so comfortable. It wasn't awkward & I am kind of awkward lol. She helped me understand certain poses and was encouraging throughout it. She also helped me pick out what to wear, that would look the best with her different studio sets. I felt so relaxed because of how she talked me thru everything. She followed up after sharing the photos with me & was very helpful during that process as well. Even thou I got them as an anniversary gift for my husband, I feel like it was also for me as it boosted my self-esteem. I usually don't like the way I look in photos, but she was able to capture my beauty in a way that made me feel confident & sexy, just the way I am. The quality of her work is stunning. She knows how to work with angles, light & shadow to flatter you. She is so creative. Now my husband & I have a cherished gift & we couldn't be more happy with the photos.

Jamie's talents know no boundaries! She took SO many…read morebeautiful pictures of my daughter for her Senior Portrait Session. She captured images that show my daughters personality and soul. By the time I was done reviewing the photos, I ended up with happy tears in my eyes. They were so moving and full of feeling!

Jamie Solorio has a gift that Redding, CA is lucky to have! I will never go elsewhere for my photography needs!

We had interesting conversation, he made me feel relaxed, and--dang--his photographs came out amazing. I get constant compliments: They're very real, authentic, and look like me. But cooler. He listened to me, was very open to any suggestions, and he has this way of getting to the exact right facial expression (which with me is hard). I feel I have the perfect professional photos showing me relaxed and as I am, authentically. It's a huge, huge help.
