She had lots of suggestions and ideas on location and the timing to optimize the sunlight during the winter that we really appreciated. Rachel also directed us on how to pose without making it seem awkward, and we loved how the pictures turned out. She is very responsive to emails and got our pictures back to us way quicker than we anticipated. You can tell Rachel has a passion for what she does and all the people she works with, we loved working with her and highly recommend!

I was very lucky to have Rachel recommended to me - she is quite literally the BEST professional I've ever had the pleasure to work with. I could tell from the first response from her that she was the person I wanted to work with. I'm someone who is extremely detail oriented and she still managed to blow me away - her style guide of tips and tricks for the shoot for starters - and she was extremely flexible in my pushing my shoot back a few days so I could set up hair, makeup, the right outfits etc. once I had a chance to read her guide! She truly makes sure you are the best version of prepared before the shoot. She even recommended Carolyn Thombs (and other makeup/hair stylists etc.) in her guide, she was also amazing. There was a chance of rain the day of my shoot and she proactively reached out to offer an alternative location or a rebook. Thankfully the weather cleared and we didn't need either. I was nervous when I arrived but Rachel was calm, cool, collected and fun! She walked me through all the kinds of poses, walks, facial expressions etc. She has this down to a SCIENCE!! She even managed to make Union Station look glamorous and had so many amazing ideas that I never would have thought of. When she sent me the photos I actually got tears in my eyes I loved them so much. I told everyone I know that I've found my photographer for life - I quite simply will never work with someone else. If Rachel can be your photographer for your special moment consider yourself lucky!!!

We hired Gabriele to photograph our family in DC and she did a great job!…read more She arrived early, caught candid moments as well as posed shots, and got our online gallery sent to us within 24 hours. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer, with reasonable prices, that doesn't do the typical up-sell of making you buy images from her... the gallery is ours to download and print as we wish. Big bonus.

She is a gifted artist, and captured the emotions we were feeling, in all of the pictures. I am SO happy to have such a treasure chest of memories from our day.

First, we were late (I still haven't figured out how to account for DC traffic) - Erin was very nice/gracious about it. Then, each of my siblings and I had specific ideas in mind and were fairly demanding about what we wanted (4 adults who all have their own taste/thoughts = a lot of discussion about what to do or not do). Erin stayed up-beat and had great recommendations when people got stuck for poses or couldn't agree on what to do. Finally, she did a great job touching up the photographs for small errors such a bra strap showing or puffy under-eyes in the close-up photographs. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get a family photo-shoot. She has the perfect attitude for handling demanding people and she gets great shots.

She also agreed to actually reveal our gender to us and get our reaction which was so great and a very beautiful moment! We received the pictures SO fast! That meant a lot to me because we were still so excited from that moment so it felt good to be able to share with family and friends so quickly. I'd def recommend her services, and will use her again for sure! She's professional, friendly, and the pictures we took turned out so well!

If you are on the fence about whether spending more for higher quality photo and video is worth it, this is the voice telling you that it is -- at least when it comes to having Mari and George capture your events. Mari was a dream to work with. She matched our vibes perfectly, making us feel comfortable and beautiful, so our genuine joy radiates through the photos. And George is exceptionally skilled at cinematography. He captured both the high-energy moments and the sweet intimate moments with equal finesse, and put it all together in a way that transports us back to those incredible days. We cannot emphasize enough how amazing their photos and videos are and how much we recommend their team.

Both Jeremiah and Gwyneth were extremely professional and talented. They were easy to work with from the very beginning. They answered all of our questions with detail and made us feel comfortable. On top of that, their rates were affordable! (Not like some of the other photographers that we had initially comparison shopped) After we chose to hire them, they noted every detail we wanted and asked us more questions that we didn't even originally think of! These two are professionals that actually know what they are doing! They coordinated everything with our venue, planning out specific spots beforehand. When our Big Day came, they were there bright and early, ready to go! They were energetic and friendly. They surpassed my expectations of how well they captured our special day! They captured all of the specifics that we had requested beforehand, and on top of that, Gwyneth came up with some beautiful shots on the spot that day. She even captured some requests that we had slipped in that day! Gwyneth has such a great eye for detail and composition. The final photos were breathtaking- the color and quality were exactly what we had wanted! She had so much positive energy- running around in a very professional and incognito way making sure not to disturb any big moments! We are extremely happy that we chose to go with Sheepdog Productions as our Wedding Photographer! We are so grateful for the amazing experience that we had, and that we will be able to cherish our wedding photos for the rest of our lives!

We hired Sheepdog Productions as wedding photographers, and could not possibly have been happier…read morewith the result. Bottom line: the results were amazing. To start, Jeremiah and Gwyneth were both very professional and easy to work with. When we contacted them, they quickly made us feel at ease as they took us through the variety of options. We had been doing lots of comparison shopping and had preliminary conversations with photographers before, but not only did the price ranges include flexibility and affordability, but Sheepdog made us feel comfortable. Right away. That's important, and hard to come by in a competitive market. Once we formally selected them, they got the job done. They coordinated with the Planners and venue, and played an integral role in ushering us through our Big Day (and capturing every moment). They were a hit with the guests, performing their duties with the utmost professionalism, but also providing a warm and welcome energy that tied the proceedings together beautifully. Kudos to Gwen for sustaining such a high energy level. She rocked AND rolled, zipping from vantage point to vantage point, remaining unobtrusive while being ever present to capture the perfect moment. And that they did. The color, composition, and quality are of the highest order. They captured the feeling and tone perfectly, while making us look better than we've ever seen in a mirror. The smiles, tears, and love were on full display, recorded with a steady hand and expert eye. Thank you, Sheepdog. You allowed us to transport ourselves back to a whirlwind of our special day. As we move forward together, we have the rest of our lives to look back at these many perfect, preserved moments in time. The snapshot of bliss and love that we have forever, thanks to you. 10/10; of course we recommend. We certainly will be saving their number.

We knew…read morewe didn't want cookie-cutter, off the shelf photography and we were amazed by the range of emotion and interactions between ourselves, our friends and family that Michelle was able to document. Everyone who's seen the photographs has commented at how artistically composed they are. The work is truly impressive and none of it is staged. We were actually able to enjoy our wedding day because Michelle works so quietly and unobtrusively, we forgot she was even there. We later hired Michelle to take pictures of our daughter when she turned two. We absolutely love the photos!

Michelle met us at our apartment, which is very convenient for our little family with a 4-month old baby, and she was patient, kind and professional throughout the shoot. Of course, all that means nothing if the pictures aren't good, but the pictures were fantastic. The photos were in the naturalistic style that we love, and the resolution was amazing. We've got several instant classics out of the shoot, and Michelle allowed us to keep all the digital files. We can't wait to use her again!
