I wanted to find a photographer who had photographed children before and was pleased to see she had an extensive portfolio. She was prompt in replying to my inquiries and proving ideas as to what I can expect at the photo session based on what it was I was wanting. Extremely professional and easy to talk to which was super important for me. She arrived on time on the day of the photo shoot and right away my daughter welcomed her. Kelly was patient in making sure my daughter was able to be herself and allowing her to take breaks and have snack time, did not feel rushed. When the pictures came back I was blown away by her work. She managed to capture shots that I hadn't thought she was clicking away when those instances happened and they conveyed the true emotions of that moment in time. I can say I am 100% happy with the work Kelly has done for me and will look forward to her capturing my family through the years.

On photo shoot day, my three kids felt relaxed and enjoyed the process. They got to know Lisa 1:1 when she was doing their individual "school portrait" photos, and we had many opportunities to take family photos. After every shot (or almost every shot), Lisa would show us the preview of the photo in her camera. I highly recommend Portola Valley Town Center, which provides so many backdrops to create memorable photos. My follow-up appointment with Lisa was also very fun and client-centered, the the point I felt bad for getting so much attention. She was very dedicated to sharing her favorites and guiding the process. I am very appreciative of Lisa's expertise, love for photography, and enjoyment with families that made all of this a comfortable experience during a difficult year.

Somehow, she always manages to capture the essence of who we are as a family--those authentic, fleeting moments that are more precious than any posed shot could ever be.

Tiffany is not only a FANTASTIC newborn and family photographer, but she is also an INCREDIBLE…read morewedding and engagement photographer... My obsession with Tiffany started when she captured our engagement photos in Moss Beach.  I had a specific picture I had envisioned and obsessed about, and like a bad client I didn't tell Tiffany.  When I got back my pictures, there it was!  I knew from that day on I would never use another photographer. When it came to us picking a photographer for our destination wedding in Palm Springs, I felt a gravitational pull towards Tiffany, and she didn't disappoint.  She made the booking portion very simple and easy.  I sent her a list of shots we wanted and she pretty much captured everything I could even think of, and more.  She leaned into our moody "old Hollywood" look.  She worked our 200+ wedding like she'd been doing it for decades.  She works with light like a master artist.  What comes out at the end will absolutely blow your mind.  And on top of it all, she's a lot of fun to work with and makes you feel so comfortable.  I honestly wanted her to stay the entire wedding as a guest because I felt so close to her after our journey together. .... And thank God she has a sense of humor because when I wanted to do a funny gender reveal, newborn shoot for our new puppy, Frankie, she was all in!! She was even able to swaddle our 9 week only puppy! My husband actually said, when we were looking to book a photographer for our wedding, that he only wanted to work with Tiffany.  That's when I knew she would be apart of our lives forever.  I'm pretty sure 99.9% of the pictures framed in our house are all taken by Tiffany.  Tiffany captures the stuff that dreams are made of.  Thank you Tiffany for being apart of our big moments and giving us the greatest gifts, our memories live and in living color (or moody and in black and white when the occasion arises).

We used Bianca for newborn photos and were beyond floored with the experience. Her communication from the get go was seamless, professional, and comprehensive. I found booking and working with her on dates a walk in the park. On the actual day of the shoot, Bianca was patient, accommodating, and made sure my husband and I felt comfortable with everything every step of the way. She worked wonders with our son, and it was incredible seeing how well newborns respond to her. We took photos in our house, so Bianca worked quickly and effortlessly to assess a space that she'd never seen before. Last but not least, the pictures came out INCREDIBLE. We continue to thumb through them from time to time and are still so grateful for everything Bianca did for us. They are memories that I know will follow our family for generations.

Three days before the event, I decided to hire a photographer for my Grandma's 100th Birthday Party…read morein San Francisco. My Dad was always the official photographer for all family events, but sadly he passed away a month before the party. Initially I planned to take on the job myself, but I have two young kids and a lot of relatives I haven't seen in several years that I knew would keep me busy. I reached out to a lot of photographers with good reviews on Yelp. I ranked the photographers I contacted and hoped someone from the top of my list would be available and would not be too pricey. There was a fairly wide range of prices as well as different levels of experience. I really liked what I saw on Harry's website, and he was at the top of my list. So I was incredibly excited when Harry said he was available for the exact date and time I needed. Harry is experienced, and he's a good communicator. The agreement was clear, and everything went as smoothly as it could have been. Harry captured so many special moments throughout the 4.5 hour party. Even though I said there was no rush, our family was grateful to have an online link available to download the photos in less than 5 days after the event. We were grateful Harry provided tips on lighting and space to get good shots of multiple families and a big group photo. The photos were beautiful and captured so many memorable moments that evening including my Grandma dancing the night away. We will always treasure these photos from my Grandma's 100th Birthday celebration. Overall I highly recommend working with Harry. When I plan another trip to San Francisco, I will definitely contact him and set up an outdoor family photo session. Harry is dedicated, experienced, and professional, and we are all so pleased with the wonderful photos. I'm still working on an album for my Grandma; I know she'll especially enjoy reliving the 100th Birthday celebration with her family and friends. Thank you, Harry!
