5 Stars - Absolutely Amazing Experience!…read more Firstly, I do not think I have ever written a yelp review but yall should know about this photographer! I couldn't be happier with our experience with Rachelle. The photos of my newborn daughter are stunning, and I mean ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. The pictures are truly timeless treasures and I will cherish them forever. Her attention to detail was incredible and she handled my 9 day old baby with such care! Additionally, she was accommodating to our every request. I asked for a specific pose to match my son's newborn photos (taken by a different photographer when we lived out of state), and she nailed it perfectly. As a bonus, the studio is conveniently located next to an amazing deli, which was perfect for grabbing a bite during the session. There is plenty of parking and the studio vibe is chill. I cannot say enough good things about her and we'll definitely be return customers for family portraits. Thank you Rachelle for capturing these precious moments so beautifully!

We heard of Rachelle through our friends and we were not disappointed! It is clear that she has…read moreclocked many years in this industry as how effortless the shoot was despite needing to capture our toddler and two rowdy dogs. I was hesitant about doing an outdoor shoot with our dogs and toddler, but it went very smoothly. Rachelle was great interacting with our toddler and our dogs. Our toddler gave her best smiles and poses (something she never does for any other photographer!). The final photos were beautiful and exceeded our expectations. There is a true magic to Rachelle. We can't wait to work with her again!

The day of the wedding was raining, so we had to make adjustments, and Andrea and her assistant had no problem working around whatever we needed. The one thing that stood out was during the entire day, while Andrea captured so many candid moments, you never felt like she was there, she was so professional. The pictures are amazing and the wedding photo book she put together captures the day perfectly. If you have a chance to work with Andrea, you need to because you won't be disappointed!

From…read morerecommendations of ceremony site and planning photo locations at our ranch wedding, she was instrumental leading up to our day. When the day came, she was pure fun, joyful, and so clearly has an eye for the moment. We got our photos in today on our one-month anniversary and are blown away. We are experiencing all of the emotions... crying at the beauty, dying laughing at the candids. She captured moments that I, as the bride, had no idea about, and it makes me feel like I experienced our day all over again from every angle and perspective. The quality of her photos is fantastic, she is a magician and I could not recommend her more. She knew exactly where to go and what to capture, we could trust her instinct and timing with everything. We actually did not ave a day-of-coordinator, but between her and our videographer, we were completely taken care of and the timing of events worked out perfectly. She knows exactly what photos to get- talk about organized and efficient. She is the unsung hero of our perfect night, and made us feel beautiful/ special the entire time. I will attach some of the unique photos she took that have blown me away. We will be faithful to Andrea for our future photography needs, no doubt about that!!! Working with her is the best decision you'll make about your big day/ family moments!

Elizabeth is so personable, receptive, and easy to work with. I knew from my initial meeting with Elizabeth, that if I went with her as my photographer I wouldn't have anything to worry about. She went above and beyond and did so well dealing with last minute changes. Day of I changed the timeline and she ran with it. We are so glad we had Elizabeth as our photographer. We got a picture taken with almost every guest at the wedding. Elizabeth and Colby (2nd shooter) were on top of everything, and always with a smile. We are excited to go with Elizabeth with any future photography needs, and to recommend her to friends and family. If you want to have a worry free wedding in terms of photography, hire Elizabeth.

I cannot say enough great things about Westfall Visuals! They handled both the photography and…read morevideography for my wedding this month, and the entire experience has been incredible from start to finish. First off, the team that showed up on the day of our wedding was amazing. They arrived early, were professional, and immediately got to work. They made sure we captured every shot I had envisioned, while also bringing their own creative ideas to the table--and those ended up being some of my favorite moments from the day! Even though I've only received my sneak peeks so far, I am already blown away. The quality, the vision, and the attention to detail are all exactly what I was hoping for and more. Knowing that everything is then edited by Isabelle Westfall herself gives me even more confidence that the final product is going to be something we'll treasure forever. If you're looking for a wedding photography and videography team that is professional, creative, and truly invested in your day, I highly recommend Westfall Visuals. I cannot wait to see the full gallery and video!

From out first contact (through yelp), she was extremely easy to work with, including when we had a last-day venue change due to weather. Izzy arrived early and made recommendations on where to place our arch for best lighting. She was easygoing, fun, and fit right in with our family. Since we are not used to being center of photos, Izzy provided great direction in terms of posing. The photos that came back were perfect. They also came back very quickly... I believe our whole gallery was available in 4 days. We could not have been happier with the photos. Thanks so much, Izzy!

From the beginning, we were incredibly impressed by his professionalism, talent, and personal approach. Colby took the time to get to know us both as individuals and as a couple before the wedding, which made a huge difference on the big day. Even though he wasn't our photographer, we were so impressed with his work and how comfortable he made us feel that we knew we'd want to work with him again for future events--and boy, are we glad we did! On the wedding day, Colby brought such a relaxed yet focused energy, which made everything seamless. He made the experience fun, capturing all of our most cherished moments in a breathtaking video. We still watch it regularly to reminisce! He also provided us with a fully edited video very quickly after the wedding, along with the most adorable keepsake--a wooden box with a handheld video display inside. It's a memory we'll treasure forever and something we're excited to share with our family for years to come. Fast forward a year, and my husband and I are now expecting our first child. Knowing how amazing Colby was at our wedding, we immediately thought of him for our maternity photoshoot, even though he hadn't done our photography on our wedding day. My husband reached out to Colby last minute to organize a surprise shoot, and Colby was so accommodating--he fit us in that same week! Once again, he brought his A-game, and the photo session was just as effortless and enjoyable as our wedding day. Colby captured this special moment in our lives beautifully, and we received the photos promptly after the shoot. We're absolutely in love with how they turned out, and it's clear that Colby is not only an incredible videographer but also a phenomenal photographer. We can't recommend Colby enough! Whether you need a videographer, a photographer, or both, Colby is the person you want by your side to capture life's most precious moments. We would 100% work with him again and recommend him to everyone we know!
