We had to come back in a few days to view the pictures and pick out the ones we wanted. Our pictures came out so good. My baby (11 months) wasn't really able to get the best pictures bc he's a baby and doesn't really do well when I'm not near and he's around strangers, but even then we got a couple good pictures of him and his siblings. I would definitely recommend coming here for anyone looking for any kind of studio photography. They have a bunch of different backgrounds and options. I will definitely be back for more pictures.

We laughed through our maternity session and it felt more like hanging out with a friend than just getting photos done. For our newborn session, our baby was colicky really bad and it was more than 2 hours of pure calm that I had not yet experienced with my newborn. She captured photos I'll cherish forever AND helped a new mom on a personal level. Jasmine is a wholesome and genuine person who cares about her work and the people she meets doing it. You will not regret a single penny you spend getting these moments captured and you might even make a new mom friend out of it. I'll never be able to repay her for her kindness during such a tough transition into motherhood.

I couldn't be happier with our experience with Rachelle. The photos of my newborn daughter are stunning, and I mean ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. The pictures are truly timeless treasures and I will cherish them forever. Her attention to detail was incredible and she handled my 9 day old baby with such care! Additionally, she was accommodating to our every request. I asked for a specific pose to match my son's newborn photos (taken by a different photographer when we lived out of state), and she nailed it perfectly. As a bonus, the studio is conveniently located next to an amazing deli, which was perfect for grabbing a bite during the session. There is plenty of parking and the studio vibe is chill. I cannot say enough good things about her and we'll definitely be return customers for family portraits. Thank you Rachelle for capturing these precious moments so beautifully!

We went with Candor for our engagement shoots and wedding photos/videos. These 2 people are not…read moreonly the best photographers but the best people to have around. These 2 have the full package when it comes to what you need from a photographer; Their photos/videos taking skills are top shelf, know how to make people feel comfortable, and are true professionals. Particularly for a wedding, there was something special about them being an in love husband and wife themselves that made them blend in for their shots just a bit more. For our engagement shoot and our wedding, they sent us sneak peak photos and video real within days which we were not asking for or expecting. Those photos, along with the final, could not have been any better! My wife is more of a natural when it comes to getting her photo/video taken but as the groom, J&R gave me and my groomsman a bunch of smiling/posing tips for the wedding day that elevated the photos. So much so, that a lot of our friends were naturally asking for their contact. Lastly, we like J&R so much as humans that we are still texting with them post honeymoon because we legitimately miss hanging out with them. That's how awesome these 2 are. Cannot stress enough that it doesn't get better than Candor for your big day.

Recently I had some newborn photos done by Julia Bender Photography. I knew I was going to choose…read moreher for these photos since mid-pregnancy. Julie comes to your home (or location I suppose) and shoots real people using "natural light". You look like you, but softer and nicer. There's nothing gimmicky or staged about her work and after looking at a million photos on Pinterest, I decided that's exactly what I wanted. You can get cheaper shots done at JCP or the like, but people always look a little pastey and you only have a 15 minute window, so you'd better hope your little one isn't crying (for all new moms out there-- that's all infants do). You can also get much pricer photographers, if you're a Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes kind of couple and that's important to you. But I figure, kids change fast and I'll need her to do this annually. For that kind of budget, she's the right pick. It was easy enough to get ahold of her to book the appointment and she was flexible with her dates and times. Fast forward to day of: the little rascal was a crying mess, but Julia wasn't fazed, she was willing to stay as long as it took to get the photos we wanted. Admittedly, baby, husband and I were tired before she was...I probably should have waited until he was a few weeks older to do this. Nevertheless, we shot in different rooms of the house and I didn't feel rushed at all. You can choose a sitting fee (which is comparable to professional photographer' stuido fees, but less than their "on site" fees) and then buy photos a la carte (which is what I did) or you can purchase packages where you will own the rights to the digital prints (prolific facebookers will love these options). Also, I saved 10% for paying the sitting fee in cash. I used it toward the purchase of prints. Full disclosure: I know Julia's husband through work circles and that's how I discovered her work.
