Jaimie was also kind enough to recommend a hair & make up place near their studio. That way my wife was able to just relax and enjoy her day.

We'll definitely be booking more sessions with Sugarbaby in the future. Thanks again!

We had our family pics taken in SF with our two little ones, ages 3 and 1. My husband left a nice…read morereview but I also wanted to share my honest feelings as well. We got a few really nice photos and overall had a good experience. He also made us a little video that we weren't expecting, which was a nice extra. I do wish there had just been a little more direction with the kids. With two little ones, it was hard to get them to smile and look at the camera while also trying to do the same myself. He tried calling their names to get their attention, but that doesn't always work with little kids, so I was hoping for a little more playful interaction to help get natural smiles. I think I was just expecting more from someone who specializes in family photography. We did some walking shots that I think turned out the best, and I wish we had done more photos like that. We were hoping for more of those natural, candid moments versus just the posed ones. We probably could have communicated that better beforehand, but I was also hoping to trust him to help guide us and capture how we truly are as a family. Overall, we got some photos we really liked and appreciated the thoughtful video. With a little more interaction and direction with the kids, I think it could have been an even better experience!

Tom and Faye are the best! I worked with them years ago when our preschool used them for photos…read moreand my child was absent on picture day so we had to do a retake t their studio. They were very accommodating and patient and coaxed a sweet smile out of my oldest. Years later now, and we had to miss dance school photos. I called around to try to get an affordable photo session but was met with either exorbitantly high prices or extremely restrictive rules like no wardrobe changes or a limit on poses. On a whim, I called Faye and she worked with me to set up a session for us on a weekend. Our photo shoot today went great and we are very pleased with the results. She customized a package for us so we could get exactly what photos and prints we want. We were also able to see the photos immediately so we won't have to come back for a proof review session. We had multiple costume changes and they were so patient with us as I got the kids photo-ready. Faye also helped with smoothing skirts and making sure everyone was positioned optimally for the best shots. At the end, they even offered to take a photo of the whole family and threw in prints for that shot as well. I wasn't dressed for photos but they made it work and we couldn't be happier with our total experience. Wish I could give more than 5 stars because the deserve it. Will definitely work with them again in the future!
