Melissa did a maternity photo shoot and a newborn photo shoot for our new family and both…read moreexperiences and outcomes were really wonderful. We did the maternity shoot in a beautiful park setting in Sacramento. She knew the location really well (we came up from the bay area) and composed some really lovely shots. I'm so happy that we made the effort to do that shoot (at 8+ months pregnant it was an effort!). Melissa is doing a park photo shoot special through the summer and it's a really great deal (http://www.melissarighero.com/2013/07/summer-portrait-park-special.html). I've never done any kind of photo shoot before so I was pretty nervous and thought I'd end up being really awkward but Melissa is so nice and wonderful and helpful that it ended up being really fun. For the newborn shoot Melissa came to our apartment and we ended up with the most stunning photos of our baby son and the whole family. Again, when you have a newborn you don't necessarily feel like being photographed or having people come over, but Melissa is so wonderful and the experience was really enjoyable and she delivered the most beautiful results. I'm so happy we captured both of these really special moments and definitely plan on using her again for the next big event in our lives.

As evidenced by her portfolio, she is capable of doing a variety of work, which makes her quite versatile. What truly sets her apart, however, is her dedication to seeing her clients happy with the work. She will go the extra mile to make sure she understands what you're looking for and how to get there. Would highly recommend her for any of your photography projects- You won't be disappointed!

He was an absolute joy to work with and was really just so much fun! He made us laugh, kept up with the timeline, utilized the lighting and landscape and just kept things flowing really smoothly. I got so many compliments from guests and the wedding party about how great he was. I've only seen a sneak peak of photos, but from what I've seen already, they just look stunning. We will be using Dan for all of our family photos in the future. Highly, highly recommend him! He was the best!!!

He gave me a few venue ideas, which was used for my family photo's. We had a group of 12 and Dan maybe the shoot not awkward at all. We all enjoyed the creative shoots that Dan took.

If you are looking for someone friendly, professional and overall just a good guy, look no further Dan Rice is your guy.

Not being from the area, I didn't have a great idea of locations that would be best for photos. James was kind enough to suggest some beautiful places for photos nearby. I am not a photogenic person, but James did a great job helping us look natural and feel relaxed. I can't say enough how much we love the photos. The editing was fantastic as well. James was kind enough to stay with us for more time than we had originally booked to make sure we captured everything we wanted. I can't recommend him highly enough!

Don's availability and flexibility with the ever-changing spring weather made it happen. He chose a few great spots to shoot me at and made me feel at ease during the session. I highly recommend Don to photograph your family reunions and gatherings and those special events you share with family and friends when you're at the beach on holiday! Lexie H.

I loved that the photos were not posed, but more natural. She had some fun ideas and really worked with the landscape and scenery around us to make our photos even better! We not only used the photos for our Save the Dates, but also on some custom wine bottles for the wedding day! She's so creative and fun to work with and I hope we can use her again sometime soon!

What a fun experience! Mom and I decided to give this a go and we both were really happy with how…read morethe photos turned out! Right now they are only allowing one group at a time inside which I appreciated. After one group is done, they sanitize the high traffic touch spots on the various set pieces and all the employees wear masks. I believe there are 8 different sets with my favorites being the promenade scene holding the light post, the inverted saloon, and the seaside sand castle! Brittany R. guided us through the various poses and she was so kind and made the experience so much more comfortable and fun! I'm really glad we got her! With almost every "scene" you'll end up doing two different poses. You give the employee your cell phone so they take every photo using your phone as well as theirs. That way you have all the photos on your phone and then you can pick the ones you'd like to print out from theirs after you finish! After looking at all our photos, there is a slight learning curve to your body position. Also be mindful of making sure everyone in your group is doing the same thing (all looking away from camera or all looking at camera). Even with the employee guiding you on where to put your hands and feet, be mindful of your body position in general and try to keep everything at the same angle/in a straight line. I'm really happy with how the photos turned out, with just 2 photos looking just slightly 'off', one of my solo photos holding the make up chair, and the other was my moms body angle holding the 2 seat bike. Otherwise, the rest were great! This was a really enjoyable activity and great to do solo, with someone else, or as a family/group! It was $25 dollars for a group of two and that came with getting all the photos taken on your phone and then being able to print out an 8x10 of your favorite shot. They also offer additional printing options in smaller sizes like 5x7 for a little extra money if you want to print more out. Worth stopping by!
