Maternity photos session Simi Valley
Ashley P.

We had a maternity photo session with Holly Castillo which exceeded all expectations. Holly was thoughtful about our poses, professionally directed us and was open to our requests. She was encouraging and understanding when our 3 year old daughter started melting down during the photoshoot. Overall our experience with Holly was enjoyable, light-hearted and on point. Then the photos came...Holly delivers! Not only did she have the photos completed and in my inbox a few days later, but they were stunning! I loved the lighting, the moments Holly captured and the overall style of her photography. Her skill level and work melted my heart, brought me to tears and offered our family priceless photos we'll treasure for a lifetime.

Holly's photos are amazing! I first saw Holly's work on Instagram and fell in love with it. She is wonderful to work with and is very chill and so sweet. When we did our engagement photos, Holly made sure that my then fiance and I were comfortable. She accommodated our request to have a very short engagement shoot but we still got photos we loved. We just received a sneak peek of wedding photos and they are absolutely beautiful. I have already printed out some of our photos and the prints are literally gorgeous. When I got her photos printed, the person working at the photo lab complimented her work.

Beach, kiss

We met Holly at a venue expo and immediately fell in love with her bright, vibrant style that captured the joy of weddings. When we postponed our wedding twice due to the pandemic, Holly postponed with us! When we finally got to take our engagement pictures, almost 3 years after we hired her, Holly was amazing! She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and suggested places and poses but incorporated all our ideas too. Our session at the beach still feels like one of the best dates my husband and I have ever been on, and the pictures came out beautifully! At our wedding, we encountered some challenges with timing and transportation and Holly was so flexible and sweet! She was always present but never obtrusive and a true joy to work with! I cannot wait to see our wedding photos, which I know will be fabulous! I wouldn't hesitate to hire Holly if I had to do it all over again!

Update: we got our wedding photos and we thought we were blown away with engagement photos!! Our wedding photos are AMAZING. We couldn't be happier! Holly was also about 2 weeks from her due date with her son and she STILL came to shoot our wedding. She worked with us to create a backup plan just in case she couldn't be there due to giving birth. We felt completely comfortable with her and trusted her judgment. We are very thankful that she was able to be there though because the photos are breathtaking. Thank you so much, Holly! We couldn't have picked a better photographer to work with and we hope to work with you in the future!

Holly Castillo has done it again! She is the best family photographer! We have her take our family photos every year and we thank her for the wonderful memories we now have! Holly is very talented, is reasonably priced, and very easy to work with. I would recommend Holly 100% for family photos, engagements, weddings, etc.

Emily has gone above and beyond to capture the special moments of my now husband and I. I remember the first moment when I spoke with her, and from that one phone conversation, I knew that she and I would not only share the same vision for photography (how I would like my pictures to be captured and how she captures photographs), but also become friends!! our first phone conversation was about four months prior to the wedding, and I had not done anything to plan for it! I am a busy resident physician, and I also wanted to plan my own wedding, but I didn't know where to start! So on that day, in between me seeing patients, Emily and I had a really brief phone conversation, where she said three simple words, "I got you!" Since that fateful day, she has not given us a dream engagement photo shoot (at the very beach in which my husband, and I fell in love with in Malibu, the El Matador state Beach!) but also our very special moments on our special wedding day! In the middle of me getting pulled in different directions even on that wedding day... the minute she walked in with her team, I felt sense of calm and comfort, knowing that she was there to make sure that even though I couldn't remember everything that was happening that day because it was so busy, I trusted that she would be able to make sure I could remember those details later on in photographs! Aside from her warm heart and truly genuine personality, her work is fantastic! My husband and I have a very particular vision and preference for the type of photographs that we would like, and she fits that and more! If you look through her portfolio on her website or on her Instagram, you can see the brightness that she exuberance in her own personality onto her art. The way she captures the light is so unique, and she truly is the most talented photographer that I've ever come across. Therefore, I follow my gut and knew that she is the best of the best! I cannot wait until she continues to capture more delicate moments of our lives as I hope to continue to get to know her as well personally because she truly is one of the most special people on this universe!

She knew exactly how to swaddle and pose him, while Steve was a true artisan with the camera. Steve captured the most expressive shots at all the right angles. Beverly and Steve were also very receptive to our requests! My husband is a rock climber, so we wanted to create a couple of newborn pictures that included his climbing gear. Beverly made it come together so beautifully! Steve and Beverly were also patient and kind about newborn messes (spraying during diaper changes, spit up after feeding, etc.). They've seen it all (they are parents themselves), and the mess doesn't faze them. In addition, they gave some great advice to ease my anxieties as a first-time mom. We are so pleased with our experience here. The final photos are beautiful and we'll cherish them for a lifetime. I can't recommend this studio highly enough.

They gave us plenty of time to settle and feed the baby, and even when she spit up all over their couch, they were nothing but kind and reassuring. Their home studio was warm and welcoming, and they went the extra mile--at one point, their daughter even played with my toddler so we could focus on photos. As any parent knows, getting a toddler and a newborn to cooperate is no small task, but they made it feel easy. The final photos were beautiful and captured our kids perfectly. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a thoughtful, talented, and genuinely kind photography team!

From the beginning, Victoria was highly responsive, answered all my questions and even set up a call to walk through shoot day so we were prepared. She has a detailed preparation guide on her website which was extremely helpful as a new parent. The photo shoot took place at her in-home studio and it was a very comfortable, relaxing environment with everything you need for a newborn photo shoot. She has an abundance of props and the cutest outfits and accessories to choose from for each photo. Unfortunately, my baby wasn't happy this day, but despite the chaos Victoria was so kind and understanding and she worked her magic (and patience) to capture some amazing photos of our little one in between all the fussiness. She really went out of her way and even extended the session time to allow us time to calm, feed and change our baby so we could get the best photos possible. She was also so meticulous and detailed - from the props to the lighting to the baby, she made sure each element was in just the right position and orientation for the best photos. I highly recommend Victoria, and I will definitely recommend her to all my friends and family. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to take our baby's 1st photos.
