Working with Robin was absolutely amazing…read more My (now) husband and I had a civil ceremony at Rochester City Hall, so it was a quick affair, but we wanted to have it well documented, so we reached out to Robin.

We had a great experience with her and highly recommend her for any type of wedding or event you may be having.

We were incredibly lucky to have Jacalyn as our wedding photographer this year! On a hectic and…read moreemotional day, Jacalyn was organized and composed.

I can't say enough about how great it was working with John Schlia Photography. At the time we…read morebegan wedding planning, my wife and I were in the midst of buying a house and working on our respective dissertations, so we had a lot going on, but John was always super responsive, organized, and willing to accommodate our crazy schedules! He often did little things -- like getting us a Java's gift card and encouraging us to use it to relax and take a break from wedding planning -- to show that he appreciated all that we were dealing with...and that he was there to support us however he could. As for the photography itself, John shot both of our engagement sessions as well as our ceremony and reception (which was at Artisanworks). His photography truly captured every aspect of our day and we could not be happier to select John for such an important occasion. Highly recommend!

Let me start by saying if you need a sign to book Loraleah and Courtney Geist for your wedding…read more. this is your sign BOOK THEM. My wife and I got married in the Florida Keys and they traveled down to shoot our wedding for us. They are an absolute killer duo. To start, they were both amazing to work with, super easy to contact, so dang friendly and welcoming. I couldn't think of two better people to capture our big day. Photo and video were such a big thing for us on our wedding day, and even though we've seen so much of their work and loved it, they legit blew us away with their talent and expertise. They kept the energy so light and fun during our newlywed photos after a high stress few hours prior. They put on some of our favorite music so we could feel ourselves and loosen up during our photos. They are also both super LGBT friendly. My wife and I were super worried about who we were going to book since we are gay and we wanted to be comfortable. They were an instant vibe, sooo friendly, supportive, gay friendly and never made us feel weird for a single second (which is huge when you're being photographed)!!! They were there for us through the whole planning process to look out for us and lead us in the right direction with our timeline, etc. The ALSO partied harddddddd with us on the dance floor and made sure to capture the sickest dance floor shots for us which was so important for us to hold onto so we could look back on. Don't skimp out on cheap photography and videography, you will regret it!!! Spend the money and book these two because they are unreal!!!

Five stars are not enough!!! Mary did our engagement & wedding photos and we plan to travel to WNY…read moreto use her for the rest of our family photos - forever. We found Mary by accident from another random photographer I'd reached out to who was unavailable for our dates. She was at the top of his list of recommendations. Mary is so incredibly talented and worth every single penny. The best part of her process is that she really takes the time to get to know her clients, which makes getting those amazing photos easy. My husband is very camera shy and Mary knew exactly how to help us open up and be ourselves. I struggle with body image issues and Mary made me feel very comfortable in my own skin. Our wedding was very intimate (only 75 guests) and by the end of the day Mary fit right in with our whole crew. Book her, and fast!!!

We absolutely love working with Mary!…read more She has done two photo shoots for our family and we couldn't be happier! Mary is super easy to work with and does such a thoughtful job. We spoke about our expectations beforehand and she captured exactly what we had in mind-actually even better than we imagined! She is quick to respond to emails and sent our sneak peaks and edited choices super fast. Her style is dreamy. She keeps our young kids entertained and happy while perfectly capturing their personalities. She always has a great combination of staged and candid shots. Her prices is fair with no hidden costs and well worth the investment. We will cherish these photos forever! We can't wait for our next photoshoot with her. She's simply the best!

I heard good things about One Sharp Joe and decided to give them a go--and I'm so glad that I did. I am not particularly keen on having my picture taken but from the very start, Joe made me feel very much at ease on the other side of the lens. He has a way of quickly building rapport and trust as he draws you into the posing process. I am no professional model, but he made me feel like one. The end result was even better than I had hoped and I really couldn't be happier with the final shots. If you are looking for a portrait that rises far above the mundane, you would do well to give One Sharp Joe a try. Highly recommended!
