I have never met anyone more dedicated to their work and craft than Kellie. After getting engaged,…read moreall I really knew was the vibe my now-husband and I wanted, and I spent countless days searching near and far for the right photographer - in a nutshell, my love language is quality time and I really wanted a photographer who could capture everything unique about my fiancé and I as a couple and our love. I found Kellie on Instagram and her photos just really spoke to me. When I reached out to inquire with Kellie directly, I already knew that she was the right person for us, but the cherry on top was Kellie's genuineness and warmth via her prompt reply. And the best part was how immediately comfortable and at ease Kellie made us feel, especially because my husband and I went into our engagement session feeling a little nervous because we are not the type of people who can 'pose' or be serious in photos. Kellie gave us great guidance and made us feel confident throughout our engagement session, and we were completely blown away when we got our engagement photo gallery back. We got so many photos in the gallery but more importantly, Kellie captured us perfectly! I was so in love with our engagement session photos that I asked Kellie if she was also available to photograph our intimate rehearsal dinner. Leading up to our wedding weekend, Kellie kept in touch about all of the details. Our rehearsal dinner guests (immediate family members and our wedding party and their +1's) kept telling us how lovely Kellie was. The next morning (wedding day!), Kellie and the second photographer, Meghan, arrived at the venue where I was getting ready with my mom and my 3 best friends. Kellie and Meghan made us all feel at ease and so comfortable - it felt like we have all been friends for years! And our guests loved them so much, which really meant a lot to me - my husband and I wanted everything about our wedding to feel intentional and that included the vendors we selected. We chose our vendors, and specifically Kellie, with the intent to give full creative freedom. Kellie DELIVERED. Two days after our wedding, Kellie sent us ~50 sneak peak photos and I'm literally not kidding when I saw our jaws were on the floor - the photos are SO good (I attached a few of our favorites). I didn't think it could get better than our engagement session photos (also attached)... well, it got 10x better! I didn't think it could get better than our engagement session photos... it got 10x better. We loved getting to know Kellie and while we did get the most amazing photos, we also gained a great friend. Kellie is a true talent and we highly recommend her to anyone and everyone! Thank you, Kellie - can't wait to work with you again!

Kellie was so awesome to work with! My fiancé hates having his picture taken and was dreading our…read moreshoot. Kellie talked to us on the phone prior to the photo date and put us both at ease. She was flexible with locations and met us at a perfect spot she had recommended. Kellie has a great eye for photo composition and most importantly made the whole shoot super smooth and painless. She had us comfortable and laughing the whole time! We highly recommend Kellie for your moody, magazine style photos!

If there was a negative star that I could leave that would definitely be the case here. Raquel was…read morerecommended by The Fandango Banquet Hall and god only knows why. Never have I had this much of a tiring and frustrating experience with a person of business. My daughters Quincenera was on March 12 2022 and I barely got my wallet pictures on August 30th. The hall had also initially recommended her as the choreographer, the week before practice was supposed to begin she tells me that she cannot do the Sunday anymore and I would have to pick a different day. I could not pick a different day because one of the chambelanes would have to drop out. She found me someone else who was also charging $700 but told that lady to only make sure she showed me two songs. The lady thankfully said she did her own methods and actually did about 5 songs since she was very detailed. Throughout the process for the photographer I had to be the one to constantly check in and ask if she needed anything for the slideshow etc. She always seemed so unorganized and on the day of she was even 20 minutes late. She failed to mention that my daughter needed a red dress to coordinate her next to her Quincenera dress, she asked me the day of. She told me she did not have to be dressed just hair and make up done just to be told the day of that she needed the dress. She had told me the pictures would take a few months, I reached out on 4/20 at 7:14 in the morning asking for an update. No answer until I tried to call her which she ignored and responded at 6:37pm stating she was busy and would call me back at 9:30pm. She never called me to which I reached out on 4/21 at 930pm, she did not respond until 4/22 @11:04am. She said she could meet me that week after to deliver my stuff. She said Friday evening worked best but I did schedule her for 5/6 as I would have my daughter with me that day. I asked her if 6pm worked and she said yes. I messaged her that morning on 5/6 at 3:12 asking if we can meet at 5pm, no response. I called her and she told me she forgot we had an appointment. She said that she would call me back. She did not call me back, on 5/9 @7:17 am I reached out asking for a status, to which she responded she worked all weekend and when she went to the lab my pictures were not there. She said she would have them Tuesday 5/10. I asked her if we can do Thursday she said she was busy so I scheduled for Tuesday 5/10, I asked her if we can do 630 to which she said she needed to beat traffic and wanted to meet at 7 or 8pm. I asked her if 7 worked and no response, I text her again at 10 am she did not respond. I text her again at 11:33am and she finally said 7 was fine. She messaged me Tuesday 5/10 at 6:34 pm stating she was barely leaving and she would take an hour and 20 minutes. I was upset and called her to only find out it would not make sense to meet me Tuesday since she actually did not have my daugthers video and "she could see how upset I was." We agreed to meet Thursday (the day she said she was busy). She actually made it on time and she then told me she didnt realize I ordered the bigger package she thought I ordered he basic. She did not realize it came with a big portrait and she also forgot my wallets. She did not tell me how long it would take for my acrylic book on 5/27, no response. I messaged her again 5/31, no response. Finally I had to call her and she told me to text her my email to review pictures. She said she would send me an email I got no email, I messaged her on 6/20 asking her for the email, she was out of the office and said she would resend it. 6/22 I sent her another message because I got no email. I was once again ignored and messaged her on 6/24. She finally sends me the link hours later. I had my daughter review pictures and sent her a message on 6/29 that they were a go. Finally 7/28 pictures were ready but unfortunately my daugthers dad had covid so I scheduled the appointment for 8/11. She arrived but once again did not have my wallets or big portrait. She said she had forgot and had to send me a text for a reminder. She said this would only take a week, I waited patiently and messaged her on 8/26 asking for a status. She said Tuesday at 5pm, she messaged me Tuesday at 4:50 saying she was going to be there at 5:30 pm. I was there on time at 5 and waited, it was 5:30 she had not arrived. I called her and she said she was running late. Not only was she already late to our 5pm appointment she was late to being late. I was furious, she lacked even apologizing upon arrival. I called the hall and let them know and then she finally decided to apologize. This lady should not be in this industry she has no etiquette, no consideration for your time, and thinks time revolves around her. Please do not use her, she also gave me $30 off out of the 2k I paid her which was a slap in the face. The picture is of the screenshot where she finally apologized.

We had a scheduled appointment at Laguna Beach at 12:15, and unfortunately my husband and I were running a bit late, but she made the situation completely stress-free. As soon as we met her on the beach, she helped us lock in, get comfortable, and jump right into shooting so we could make the most of our time. Jamie has such a sweet personality and gives clear, easy-to-follow direction, which made the entire session feel natural and fun rather than awkward. She's also very creative and thoughtful with her shots, and it truly shows in the final photos. We felt comfortable, supported, and genuinely taken care of throughout the session. We're so grateful for her professionalism, patience, and talent, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, authentic photos.

She's incredibly patient, especially with the kids, and somehow always knows exactly how to get them to relax, have fun, and give those genuine smiles that can be so hard to capture. What really stands out is how effortless she makes everything feel. She brings such a calm, positive energy that puts everyone at ease, and it truly shows in the photos. She also shares sneak peeks and asks for your input along the way, which makes you feel involved in the whole process and confident you'll love the final results. The moments she captures don't feel staged, they feel real, natural, and full of personality. The final images are always beautiful and something we'll treasure forever. If you're looking for a family photographer who is talented, reliable, and amazing with kids, we highly recommend her.

There aren't enough words of praise in the English language for Shaun of Top Shelf Photo! We were…read morelucky enough to find him on Yelp for our engagement photos, and in mid-November of 2024 he braved the chill of Palomar Mountain to take spectacular photos of us. Nonstop compliments from friends and family, and received much quicker than anticipated. Once we got into wedding planning, Shaun was the obvious choice for our photography needs. Along with his second shooter Jess (Jessica Christie Photography), he again knocked it out of the park. Couldn't have asked for more perfect photos. On a more personal note, Shaun is the above-and-beyond type of person to take the absolute best shots possible. Like, fixing the boutonniere on my suit himself for the exact right angle, or gently shoo'ing away stinkbugs while helping my wife to re-tie her wedding shoes type of person. His passion and dedication for his craft are inspiring, and I guarantee if you don't love being in photos as a general rule (like myself) he will absolutely put you at ease and make it look like you've been modeling all your life. Thank you for everything Shaun, from the bottom of our hearts.
