Sebastian is a very thoughtful skilled photographer. I gave him the challenging task of repairing a…read more47 year old 3" x 3" double exposure color snapshot. I wanted to eliminate one of the exposures and have the repaired photograph made into a 12" x 12" print. Sebastian was able to remove the double exposure and had to actually recreate parts of the picture where in had been completely obscured by the double exposure. Sebastian's skills and dedication to the task has yielded a historically invaluable one of a kind photo of a Fresnel lens in service in a lighthouse back in 1971. This photo will go on permanent display in the lighthouse for generations of visitors to enjoy.

She's also very very affordable and is very aware of what angles and looks make people look the best. She is very friendly and approachable. I have referred her services to 2 other people and they are just as impressed. Last year my son was terrified of Santa and she was able to make it a comfortable and fun experience for him and he didn't cry at all. Our pictures were fantastic and everyone asked me where we got them done. We even got a cute family picture too that I still have on my living room end table. Not to be outdone from the previous year Lisa managed to capture the best photos for our session. I don't know how she does it. What's so great is that all photos she takes she puts on a CD along with a release allowing you to print the photos however you wish. If you are considering getting professional pictures done just go here. Seriously, go now, you won't be sorry. It's the best quality at the best price. Plain and simple.

Ages ranging from 22 months to 80, we were NOT an easy group to work with I assure you. Yet, with Sara's skillful direction, artistic eye, professional expertise, positive attitude, and calm manner, over 100 shots were taken in an hour. Sara created a natural and as stress-free as possible experience for our family. She directed us quickly on posing with her expert eye and overcame the short attention spans of the children. She made us feel comfortable with her good direction and patience to get the best results. Thank you, Sara! We highly recommend Sara Zarrella Photography, an award-winning, nationally published studio. I am grateful that my daughter did the research to find her.

Amanda was our second shooter for our wedding and was such a sweetheart, always checking in on me, helping with my train or holding my bouquet when I needed a break.

Laurie Brandt ended up being my first pick for my first born son's newborn photographer. I LOVE…read morenewborn photography but Laurie's work was hands down the best. She had so many ideas I loved I did my best not to torture her in regards to themes, ideas, & props. She also had done newborn photography with several acquaintances of mine. The long winding country road I drove that November that leads to her studio should be on the cover of a New England Postcard. The falling leaves and trees I passed set the scene or privacy, nature & serenity! She has a gorgeous home photography studio- set on a picturesque property with 360 degree lake views. Just being there brought a sense of calm over you! Laurie asked me what I wanted and introduced me to her daughter Tiffany who would be assisting her during the Newborn Photography shoot. Laurie immediately got to work & I could tell she was a naturally creative spirit. She has an amazing energy and aura about her that transcends into her work! She took my ideas and transformed them into beautiful art. I wanted to incorporate a "Prince Theme" since that was my sons baby shower as well as a "Peter Rabbit Theme" since that was my sons Nursery as well as those quintessential newborn pictures & a few Christmas pictures since it was next month I could use a few of these for Christmas Cards as well as whatever she suggested which was a "Mother & Me" Picture & some other things I Loved. I loved and wished I could have kept them all (including the proofs)! Most important about Laurie in addition to her spirit was how great and accommodating she was to me and my son. I had no qualms about her holding, posing, or adjusting him. She also gave me plenty of time for feeding/changing throughout the session. You could tell she was a Mom with an amazing maternal side that translates into her photography. My son slept through the ENTIRE photo shoot except for when he peed on Laurie- which she handled- LIKE A CHAMP. She quickly let me know and we got him cleaned up and she just kept rolling! That in and of itself- was amazing! Naturally- I felt bad and apologized and she was like "Don't worry about it" she Shook it Off enduring "it happens all the time"! She also has an amazing room dedicated to Newborns/Kids & Their Mom's/Caretakers in which she has a changing table with all supplies, wipes/toys/etc. Newborn Props & Newborn Outfits as well as an area to breastfeed -which I personally thought was amazing!! She made me feel immediately comfortable and I'm a pretty shy individual! Her young daughter Tiffany was also naturally gifted with photography and newborn posing and appeared to be just as creative as her experienced mother! They made a great team and made me feel great about being a First Time Mom and observed I was very natural tending to my son and stopping to breastfeed in between our 3 hour session. The studio grounds are absolutely beautiful & her backdrops are amazing. I know she also does "themes" and offers full scale sets for some of these I believe such as Fairy Sets (unless that's just an example of her beautiful editing). I've seen her do newborn photography with: Disney Movies, Where the Wild Things Are, Rainbow Baby Tributes, Police Officer Tributes, and really anything you want. WHAT TO KNOW: Laurie is extremely talented and creative and is amazing with both newborns AND parents. She comes highly recommended by many friends and individuals in RI! She is very easy to work with, down to earth and extremely approachable and works with what YOU want! CONTACT HER ASAP to schedule an appointment- because you don't want her to be booked when going into labor and she usually doesn't like to take newborns over 14 days old. The first time you meet her you can tell that she gets inspired by each and every shoot- which is refreshing to work with and see! She is also an amazing and FAST editor- as well! She is my absolute favorite newborn photographer in the State of Rhode Island & I would recommend her to any Mom - especially nervous first time Mom's like I was because she put me at ease instantly and she made the whole process a breeze! Anyone looking to do something Creative or One of a Kind with your child or newborn you have to schedule with Laurie and first time Mom's have to do the Mommy & Me Picture!! I'll love and cherish all these pictures forever! A fun and memorable experience (as it should be) opposed to the horror shows I've gone through at Target & JC Penny.

What can I say about Laurie other than the fact that she is phenomenal!? Her energy and spirit is…read moreamazing - I am a firm believer that others impact your mood and energy, each and every time we have been to her studio it's been a positive experience. And the results are another amazing story. I heard about her through the grapevine and did maternity photos with her. Let me tell you, the last thing an expectant mom who resembles the Goodyear blimp would like to do is pose for photos. I already felt beautiful and glowing, just didn't want to capture the physical gains on camera; however, Laurie made me feel comfortable and brought out gorgeous gowns, utilized some of the beautiful nature on her property, & and took some pretty damn good photos too! Next visit was the newborn session and she handled my 10 day old peanut with such care, she never woke, not until the end! Laurie kept the studio warm and gave ample time for feedings and changes. Most recently, we did the 6 month shoot - once again, Laurie had that magic that resulted int daughters personality shining through. Positive energy reinforces positive results! Looking forward to the 1 year and holiday photos!
