Hollywood Photo came up for passport photos so I put in an inquiry on the website. I received a response that yes they did passport photos and to call. I have to admit I was annoyed at having to call but seconds into my call on the phone with Tolga I had a smile on my face. He's just a super pleasant guy! It was easy to schedule an appointment, and the studio is easy to find, just off the 51. There's parking literally in front of the door too! Tolga is just as nice in person and you can tell he really loves his job! I asked him some questions about what he loves about photography and his face was so animated. I love seeing people love what they do! We took a new photo quickly and I gave my approval. Such a better photo than at the drugstore! Better lighting, better camera, and someone who actually knows what they are doing and cares makes a huge difference. Tolga let me know that the digital photo acceptance for passports has been tricky and to let him know if I had an issue. When I tried to submit the next day, I did have an issue and sent him an email. He replied right away with a new image file and that worked great. Not only did I get a photo I was much happier with, it was also a really pleasant experience. I would absolutely recommend Tolga for any photography needs!

Excellent passport photos. Very fair price for exactly the specs required for USA passport photos…read more Highly recommend to anyone who doesn't want to risk submitting your passport file and then getting rejected for shadows etc. Tolga was quick to respond, fit us into his schedule, is knowledgeable of different country passport specifications and a very nice guy.

From the start, Lisa made us feel completely comfortable and natural in front of the camera, which is no small feat! She's kind, professional, and has an incredible eye for capturing genuine connection. The photos turned out beautifully and truly reflect who we are as a couple. We used them throughout our adoption book, and everyone who's seen it comments on how warm and authentic the pictures feel. Lisa's creativity and care really shine through in every image.

I met Michael when he was assisting another fabulous photographer at a portrait shoot in the summer…read moreof 2016. He ended up taking one of my all time favorite pictures of my kids at that shoot! We try to get professional photos taken of my family 1-2 times a year, so when I saw that Michael was available to shoot on a recent Sunday, I booked him without hesitation. He communicated with me about timing and location prior to the shoot, arrived on time, and was super attentive to the requests of both me and my husband and my kids. He even got a handful of shots with our dog, which is not the easiest thing to do. He told me he would have digital proofs to share with me within a few days of our session, and he made good on his word. Michael is super talented. His work speaks for itself. The recent family photo session was a fun experience in itself.. and the bonus is the photos that we will value for years to come. We'll also use some of our favorites on our annual valentine cards, so we can share with friends and family. If you're looking for a professional and talented photographer in the Phoenix area, I highly recommend Michael!

I can not even begin to express how thankful I am that I made this purchase…read more First off Leanna is just incredible!! Honestly the mentor of my dreams. The amount of crazy bad*** energy and creativity in this woman's mind is amazing. Whatever you are worried about going in to the session... being too skinny, too big, too whatever. She's going to prove you wrong in the first shot. You don't have to he worried about not knowing what to do she will tell you trust me. My hair and makeup artist was so sweet and did the best job I have been having a difficult year on my healing journey and needed a pick me up. Omg I got that and so much more! The way I feel when I look at these photos and just knowing they exist is worth every penny and more! This is definitely going to have to be a yearly event. After seeing a bunch of Leanna's other work I will be using her whenever I need a photographer. This is not my first time taking photos like this but this is my first time falling live with the finished product. My only advice is plan on getting extra photos. The choice was way too hard for me. Leanna thank you so much for doing what you are meant to do and continuing to spread magic. Please don't ever stop!

I had a boudoir photo shoot for my 40th birthday and LOVED every second of it. Leanna made me feel…read morevery welcome from the start. Based on the the items I bought for the photo shoot, she was able to get an idea of my personality. Her vision was spot on. She quickly put together ensembles explaining her vision and why. After taking over 100 photos, I was afraid I would be overwhelmed by having to narrow them down but she structured it in a way that made it easy to digest and shockingly, by the end. I was 100% satisfied with the 21 photos I chose. I can't wait to see my album and come back for another shoot! I highly recommend her. She is fun and a true professional! TRUST HER!

If you've considered boudoir and aren't sure where to start, I couldn't recommend Lynn more. I…read morewanted to do a shoot for my husband for our first anniversary (the paper anniversary). Having to reschedule my shoot several times due to a surprise summer job, and later a last minute vacation, Lynn was very accommodating and to say the least, very patient with all the reschedules! We had a consultation early on that laid out how the shoot would work and what my package options were (there's definitely something for everyone). I settled on a special package that included a photo album, digital copies on a usb, and a digital brag book for our phones. I wasn't particularly nervous going into the shoot, as I am already very comfortable with my body, but for anyone having any doubts, I assure you that Lynn makes everything not only comfortable, but fun! Though I did not partake, there is always wine available at the shoot to help ease your nerves too! My hair and makeup was done by Erica and I'd highly recommend doing the same. It makes it so much easier to jump right into the shoot and you don't have to worry about your hair or makeup getting messed up before hand. Besides, Erica does an amazing job and made me feel gorgeous! The shoot is laid out in an apartment and Lynn walks you through all your poses, even facial expressions. She definitely knows what she is doing! It was amazing going through the photos after she was done with them....and SO HARD to choose between them for the book! She had me looking gorgeous! I must have gone over the photos a half dozen times before I settled on my final choices; again Lynn was very patient :) My book took a couple weeks to come in and I couldn't wait. I checked my email compulsively for the message that it had arrived. The book was an amazing quality and Lynn presented it in a pretty, sturdy, gray box with a pink bow. To say that my husband loved it would be an understatement! He was blown away! And knowing that he can carry the digitals on his phone and computer was a bonus! In short, I could not be happier with my experience and have already mentioned it to several of my friends! Even if you don't have a significant other, do it for yourself...you won't regret it!

If you are even considering doing boudoir shots for yourself or your partner, check out Lynn Dao at…read moreBoudoir in Bloom. I just got back from viewing my photos and, wow! I could scarcely believe the gorgeous, sexy woman in the photos was me! Lynn has a real talent for choosing just the right lighting and angles to make her subjects look amazing. Her photos are worthy of a Maxim or Vogue cover. Honestly, they are that good. I went into my viewing session rather skeptical. I mean, I know my body and have never liked being photographed. But, when I saw the quality of Lynn's work, I was amazed. I left her studio even liking my thighs, which is no small thing (neither are they!) Lynn's artistry starts from the time you set up a consultation. You get to see many backgrounds and areas from which Lynn will compose her shots of you. During the shoot, Lynn made me very comfortable. I never had an awkward moment even though I wore only lingerie and swimwear and in some shots, only bubbles. And don't worry about your hair or makeup. Lynn has a professional makeup artist right at the session. My hair and makeup looked AMAZING thanks to Erica. Other photogs may charge less, but they won't do as beautiful a job as Lynn Dao. If you want tasteful, sexy artistry, choose Boudoir in Bloom.
