I'm not shy, I'm a pretty outgoing woman and my BF is pretty reserved. Howard did great with easing into the session and making my BF feel comfortable. The photos blew us away. They are amazing and far exceeded our expectations. It was incredibly hard not to buy every single photo. You can't go wrong with booking a session with this photographer. Thank you Howard,

I first met Howard a decade or so ago when I read a review in a local Fort Lauderdale paper about…read morethis photographer whose photos changed the lives of the individuals he photographed -- Men who felt they had no self-esteem, but after seeing the photographs taken by Howard, realized they were someone of value. The photo session had a huge impact on their lives! I was in my 60's when I did my first session with Howard. And two months ago, I turned 75 and was feeling old and unattractive so I booked my third shoot with Howard. I was not disappointed. I went from someone feeling down -- to someone re-invigorated with life -- seeing that I was a vital engaging, even hot gay man. Howard intuitively senses who you are and works with you to relax and exude your natural self. He immediately makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera -- as he gently coaches every pose. I am always sorry when the shoot ends. Are you really satisfied with that selfie? Or do you want to have Howard capture the multi-faceted nature of who you really are and have the photos project that to the world. Howard's photo shoots have been both fun and life altering. I recommend that anyone do a session and be amazed at how positive you can feel about yourself!

We had an amazing experience working with Tess and Ryan at Hourglass Arts. Ryan came out to our…read morehome with his Canon R3 to photograph an indoor baby naming ceremony for our twin daughters, and the photos are truly some of the highest-quality pictures we have as a family. We had about 20 friends and family over and wanted a mix of candid shots, family portraits, and photos of the ceremony itself. Ryan captured everything beautifully -- the big moments, the small emotional details, and the natural energy of the day. Tess and Ryan were also incredibly communicative from our early conversations through the final edits and delivery. They made the whole process easy, professional, and stress-free. We'll definitely be reaching out to them again next time we're in the area!

My only regret is not booking her for a bit longer--because even with limited time, she delivered the most beautiful photos, and the video she created was so special. We were married at the W South Beach in a penthouse room. The room itself wasn't anything particularly impressive, nor was the balcony, but Shay worked magic. She captured us in the reflection of the Miami skyline, and those images were *stunning*--truly some of our favorite photos ever. I compared several wedding photographers, and her pricing is incredibly fair, especially for the quality and artistry she brings. If you hire her, you will be so happy you did. You're going to love your photos! Her photography team was on time, professional, and full of creative ideas for capturing amazing shots.

I had bought some of Stephanie's photos from her Etsy store over the years and was very excited to…read morehear she was coming to the Bay Area last year. I booked her right away to take pictures of my year old granddaughter. My shy granddaughter took to her right away, and so did my dog. Stephanie arrived to my home on time and took some prep photos of Holly and my pets. Then we went to the park with a variety of outfits and props. It seemed like Stephanie took hundreds of photos and never tired of following Holly around taking candid pictures of her and my daughter. I knew she was just staying in the area with friends so I wasn't expecting to see any pictures until she went home to Florida, but photos started trickling in that very night. The photos she gave us are gorgeous and bring tears to my eyes. A couple months before she came I had taken my daughter to Sears for portraits; they went out of business a couple weeks later taking our pictures and my money with them. As awful as that was, I don't miss those pictures at all now that I have my photos from Stephanie. What she gave us weren't simple portraits, they are family heirlooms. I will cherish them forever. She is worth every single penny and more.

UPDATE AFTER WEDDING: I still can't believe how perfect and…read morewonderful and supportive and chill Stephanie was on our wedding day -- amid the chaos behind the scenes and sheer joy all around, she was a calm presence celebrating us, our love, and our people. She went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed, and captured all sorts of things we were so happy to see after the fact. She was also AMAZING with our pup and flower children. : ) We are thrilled with our sneak peek photos, can't wait to see the full set in a few weeks, and honestly just want Steph to come visit us in Brooklyn to hang out. Thank you, Steph, and can't wait to see you again sometime soon! REVIEW FROM ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS: My partner and I are so so excited to be working with Stephanie for our wedding next year, and she gifted us an hour of engagement photos. We happened to be in town for one day this week, and she moved mountains to be able to meet us for a session. And y'all, she was AMAZING -- she took us from awkward-giggly to having a blast just hanging out together. We just got the sneak peek preview, and they're so great...we look like us, but the very best, happiest, and prettiest versions of us. She was triple prepared with backups on backups in case of surprise weather, made us feel so comfortable (especially important for us as a queer couple) and -- get this -- she even brought us coffee when we rolled up. Hero status. PSA: Book Stephanie for your wedding or literally anything else (headshots, engagement pics, etc.) -- she's the best decision we made in wedding planning and we're so excited to see her again!

Hiring Shane was the best last minute decision I could have made!…read more My daughter, a shy 9th grader in JROTC, had her Military Ball and after planning everything else I realized I forgot to book a photographer. I reached out to several people on Yelp and Shane immediately stood out with his quick responses, professionalism, and beautiful work. He arrived early, came fully prepared, and brought such a calm and positive energy. He even played music to help everyone relax, which helped my daughter come out of her shell. Even though the day was not going exactly as planned, Shane captured absolutely stunning photos that truly reflect who she is. I went in feeling nervous about hiring someone new and walked away so grateful to have found an amazing photographer. Highly recommend and we will definitely be working with him again!

Erin had scouted the location ahead of time, so she had a great sense of purpose and was really creative and flexible in her shots; she was especially interested in what we wanted and in getting the right "feel" for our family. They were also excellent with the small (and not always cooperative!) children in our group. In addition, Erin was super communicative ahead of time and had great suggestions for our pre-shoot questions (wardrobe, locations, etc.). Of course, best of all, the pictures were amazing! We are so grateful to have worked with such generous and incredibly talented photographers; they are worth every single penny. We will treasure these precious memories for the rest of our lives, and the Donners will absolutely be our first choice for any future photo sessions!

She answers e-mails promptly, arrives ahead of time, and stays until the job is done. I thought so much of her that I enlisted her to do a photo shoot of my family. She had a lot of unique and fun ideas for our photos! She also asked us if we had any ideas we'd like for her to use - she used one that my teenaged daughter asked for and made it look amazing. I also think so much of her work that I recommend her to every bride & groom I meet with. My reputation is also on the line when I recommend someone, so I don't take that lightly. She exceeds expectations in every possible way. Last item to note: Bianca posted our family photos on a secure site within a week of having taken the photos. That's an incredibly fast turnaround time when you consider the 100+ photos she took and then edited before posting them online! I can't recommend Bianca enough! Don't waste your time with anyone else!
