I really didn't want to get new headshots but had to per my agent who recommended Arthur. I hadn't…read morehad new headshots done in years and was so reluctant - not feeling very good about myself: aging, weight, sorrow, life. I have to tell you, and I know it sounds wild, but my session with Arthur healed something in me. Arthur was so graceful. So kind. So professional and yet so personal. His photos and his love made me like the way I look again. The shots are wonderful and abundant it was actually very hard to choose! Quality is amazing. Lots of clothing and lighting changes. Lots of play. And the proofs were back to me super timely. Thoughtfulness, respect, and love were in every second Arthur took with me and I am so grateful and so pleased.

I got my actor headshots with ABM Photography and working with them was amazing from start to…read morefinish! Arthur made it really easy to prepare for the shoot by providing a list of picture references for different actor types you might want to consider for your headshots. He also sent a detailed example video on what clothing options you can pull from your wardrobe to bring a specific look to life! (Tip: watch that video and bring LOTS of clothing options to your shoot!) Arthur is talented, kind, and made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the whole shoot. Arthur's pictures are ALWAYS such great quality and he's an actor as well so he understands the industry and how to properly market your brand. You can tell he puts a lot of care into his craft. The HMUA I worked with for my shoot was Raychill James and I loved working with her as well! She was really sweet, understood how to portray each character type, and made me feel really beautiful! I am so so pleased with my final shots and can't wait to work with ABM Photography again soon!

I want to preface this review by saying I had to search really hard for a photographer that had…read moreexperience photographing people of color in a flattering manner. I interviewed other photographers before Ash and some stated they photographed darker skin tones before but had ZERO evidence of that in their portfolios. As you can imagine, this was a frustrating process because I do not want to pay a photographer to be their guinea pig on my special day! The photographer that could show me a person of color even stated that the photos were kind of gray and washed out because he usually uses a gray filter for paler tones and that's what people typically request!! I asked if he could take the SINGLE photo back to the drawing board and edit it so that the color is more saturated and he told me he wasn't interested. There's a really good buzzfeed video about this very issue from the videographers of the show Insecure. In short, regardless of your skin tone, if you want to spend your hard earned cash on someone that truly cares about your appearance on your special day, Ash is for you. She is very bubbly and friendly. She is a great listener and remembers everything. She even wore my wedding colors. She was early to the site (two hours away from Austin) and left late. I'm not expecting anyone to do this but I'm just telling you what happened. I did my own makeup and she took shots of my face multiple times to ensure I wasn't making any terrible mistakes. We discussed ahead of time that I am a fan of candid shots and she caught plenty of those!! Poor Ash had to jump in the very very back of my cousin's SUV to ride with me to the altar due to the setup of the venue. She even traipsed through the woods with us to get those important wilderness shots. And best of all, the sunset photos. The sunset photos brought out so many colors that were actually there but barely visible during our November wedding. I don't have a single complaint about Ash! I have been thinking for a month now for something critical to say. I have asked my partner and she can't come up with anything either. All I can say is that the pictures were amazing, the color saturation was there, we weren't faded and washed out and the pictures were crystal clear. I hate posed photos and even those where we are posing do not look staged. We received the photos before the date on our contract and she was super patient with my random text messages stating "where are my pics??". Her website is super cute and accessible and our family loves it. She was professional but nice enough to get along with my family and chat with them during the wedding to make them feel comfortable. She got my mom to take off her perpetual sunglasses so I finally have good pictures of my mom! If you like her photos, then book her. If you are looking for something a little different, whatever that is, then talk to her about it and I'm sure she can make it happen.

I would highly recommend Ash. She was very professional and made us feel comfortable throughout the…read moreshoot. She did such a fantastic job editing and capturing all of the special moments. I will certainly use her again in the future.
