She was very responsive and was willing to work with us on dates. Nicole always kept us informed from when we first reached out to her through the delivery of photos and followed through after to ensure we were satisfied. Nicole was a pleasure to work with. She captured excellent photos that we'll always continue to cherish. It's often difficult for photos to capture the vibrant colors that you see in person, but Nicole's photos were really effective at doing so. Given the quality of her work, her contract rates are much better than the industry rates which was great for our small budget elopement. In fact her photos were at par if not far better than many other photographers we had researched throughout the internet. The final photos were sent via USB in a neatly and thoughtful decorated package which also included a few physical prints. The package was very beautiful and was a great touch. The quality of the photos and the moments that were captured positively exceeded our expectations. The next time we're looking to capture a life-changing moment, we'll definitely reach out to Nicole Ryan Photography!

She was so sweet and easy to work with through the whole process. We met with her on a call before the wedding to discuss our vision and she was able to help me narrow down our packed shot list and schedule for the day. Of course things don't go as planned on the day of and she was flexible when we had a few changes during get ready photos. My husband has captured many of our moments on film so it was important to us that we found a photographer who shot film for our wedding photos. Megan did offer to shoot a mix of film and digital but we both agreed that the feel of film was what we were looking for. Within a couple weeks Megan delivered over 500 images to us in a digital photo album for us to download. We are overjoyed to have these beautiful images to look back onto for the rest of our lives

It was through another referral's IG that we came across her account and loved her stunning images. We were planning a small vow renewal for our 20th anniversary with our kids and immediate family. It was really important to us to capture all the candid moments with our family. When we met her over Zoom, it really sealed the deal. She was so warm and kind, seemed truly interested in getting to know us and our story. She was super helpful in providing additional local vendor referrals.

Megan was recommended to us by a friend and when we saw her work and reviewed her website, we were instantly drawn with her passion for photography and her honesty with her approach. Absolutely loved how she outright mentioned that she is not one who does orange skin tones and "trendy" edits. We were looking for a photographer whose portfolio included images that were timeless and clean, while also evoking genuine emotion, and that was truly evident in her online galleries! We met online via zoom for an initial meeting and felt immediately at ease that everything that's advertised in her website is an accurate reflection of who she is as a person and photographer-- kind, honest, talented, and funny! Megan was also so considerate and accommodating, as she took some family portraits for our best friends as well. We wanted to show off her amazing work to our loved ones and we are so glad she was able to get some great shots of everyone. It's a cliche-- but my fiance and are were really worried about being behind camera because we are awkward with our bodies and are nervous about our smiles, but Megan provided the best and most natural guidance throughout the photoshoot and you really cannot tell how awkward we are the way our photos came out! We are already so in love and imagine we will fall deeper in love with our wedding photos. If you are still trying to decide on a family, engagement, wedding, or brand photographer, we 1,000% without a doubt recommend booking with Megan.

When my husband and I were looking for a photographer, we stumbled upon Erin's website and we…read moreimmediately knew we wanted to hire her. We loved the style of her photography and how it was so different from other photographers we looked at. The months before the wedding, we kept in contact with her through phone and email. We loved how enthusiastic she was while speaking to her and the thought she puts into capturing wedding photos. It was lovely to finally meet her on the day of our wedding, she was amazing and full of energy. She made us feel so comfortable during the wedding process and the day of. We were so excited and eager to receive our photos after the wedding. When we received them, they were everything and more than we expected!

I would absolutely recommend Erin to those who are looking for a wedding photographer!

After our spectacular experience with Erin shooting our engagement photos, we had no doubt that we…read morewanted to fly her to Kansas for our wedding day. Erin worked with me tirelessly in the months ahead of the wedding to understand my vision and help me piece together a design that would photograph beautifully. As someone with little artistic inclination, I was so grateful for all of her input. The day of the wedding, Erin arrived with everyone at 9am. She participated in the rehearsal to make sure that everyone would be positioned well to be photographed. She then immediately went inside the venue and got to work designing the reception space. Few people know this, but Erin is an aspiring floral designer. She took the DIY florals we purchased and created a design that was more beautiful than I ever could've pictured. When I finally saw the finished reception space, I was so thrilled I cried. We didn't pay extra for Erin to provide these services - she simply cared about us and wanted to make sure that our pictures were as beautiful as possible. I cannot possibly say enough good things about this amazing woman. Having her photograph our day was like hanging out with an old friend on the happiest day of our lives. Thank you, Erin, for everything you do! P.S. I will share more photos when she's done with her magic.

Tiani captured moments from the rehearsal all the way up to the end of the wedding. She did such an amazing job at capturing key moments. The angles and shots she was able to get made the wedding looking even more beautiful than we already thought. We allowed her to do as she pleased and she exceeded our expectations and delivered an incredible outcome. For a one person crew we were surprised at how much she was able to do, this girl was all over the place and she was non-stop. It was comforting to know that she wouldn't miss a moment. She balanced professionalism with fun effortlessly. My wife and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. Thank you so much TKI Photography! -Your Friendly Neighborhood Yelp'er

Tiani was even better than we could have hoped for our engagement photos. We are so THANKFUL that…read moreshe was referred to us by my makeup artist Chantel Fonseca. Tiani completely hit the mark in her recommendation for the beach location that we shot at. It was EVERYTHING that I was looking for for our engagement shoot locale: beautiful beach, amazing scenery, not crowded and a lovely view of the sunset. Even though the sunset was really "MIA" that day; the colors that came through were so poignantly pretty. Tiani's demeanor is VERY calming and relaxing. I felt instantly comfortable with her. For someone who never takes professional photos, I quickly warmed up to her directions and didn't feel awkward at all. Tiani even turned our photos around in THREE days! I was pleasantly surprised to find them in my in-box. We were even able to use one of the shots for our Christmas cards. BOOK TIANI for ANY of your professional photo needs and you won't be disappointed AT ALL, I PROMISE. Especially if you're a bride in planning mode, take a load off of yourself and just go with Tiani!

We didn't really know what to do and I was able to give the idea I had in mind and he was able to make it happen. We have only gotten to see a few of the pictures so far, but from what we have seen we are very excited to see the rest. The pictures were even better than I had planned mentally for! HAHA... We are a private couple and are quit shy around someone we don't know but he made us feel very comfortable and was willing to go the extra mile to make out photos unique to our personalities. It was such a great experience I can't wait to do another photo shoot! I would totally recommend EMQII Photography to friends and family. And we will definitely use his service again in the future!! I CANT WAIT FOR THE PICTURES!!!

EMQII photography listened to some ideas we had in mind and made them better. We even got some smiles out of our baby boy.

Leah and her fiancé were very accommodating and like I said very professional. I would recommend them to family & friends! :)

She proved to be beyond my expectations! Heather helped us choose two locations (a park and downtown Wilmington) for our 3.5 hour engagement photography in April 2015 that helped showcase who we are a couple. From the very beginning of our shoot, Heather allowed us to provide input into poses while ensuring the best possible light (no shadows on our faces) & flattering postures (kissing photos can turn out really strange if you don't use the right facial expressions!). Her assistant ensured my hair was neatly placed, no grass on our shoes, & filtered the harsh sunlight off of our faces without being intrusive. One of the hardest shots was inside Blue Post Bar which was pretty dark - somehow she made these images look like they were out of a fashion magazine - no harsh flash marks, perfect skin tones - that's hard to do without excellent manual photography skills & white balancing knowledge! I would recommend Heather for any engagement, wedding & family photography sessions - she is the type of professional photographer that makes the session fun, enjoyable & the results are stunning!
