The lighting, the angles, the outfits, the poses, all of that! Conversely, there is nothing worse than a bad photographer, and I have dealt with a few during my time using Yelp; however, Mikki at One of a Kind Photography does an excellent job and is one of the most professional photographers I have worked with. My comedy group (@lpscomedy757) was looking for a photographer to take some official promotion photos for us, and Mikki was 100% supportive of our vision. We gave her reference photos for our ideas and she made them come to life in her studio. She was also very fun and accommodating to shoot with. She always showed us our shots and took our pictures until we got a shot that we were happy with. She also let us see the unedited shots so we could let her know which ones we wanted to be edited, which I also appreciated. When the final shots came back ... baaaaby, they were everything! My group and I were very pleased. We will definitely be using Mikki for all of our photography needs!

I am so thankful that I found Mikki. My now husband and I planned a small wedding ceremony on the…read morebeach with close family and friends and she was able to make time for us the day of. She is so professional and very personable and I look forward to one day working with her again.

If you are looking for a great photographer then look no further than Sarai!…read moreShe was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Professional, efficient, friendly and, most importantly, took the most fabulous photographs of our daughter's sweet 16. Our friends and family loved her. She captured the most precious moments, and was very attentive to our needs. We could not have wished for a better photographer. If a picture is worth a thousand words, you would need a library to describe a great photographer. Thanks so much, Sarai

We hired Vanessa as the photographer for our wedding in October 2022. As of May 2024, all we have…read morereceived is a handful of proofs that we received immediately after the wedding. It has been 20 months and despite multiple attempts to contact Vanessa and provide opportunities to resolve her failure to deliver on our contract (such as the clause regarding selling the services to another contractor in the event she can't deliver), she has not responded to any messages. However, during that same time, she posted numerous times on instagram to all of her clients/followers and has recently been showing posts about new client photo shoots all over the world. Yet here we are, no photos, money gone, and no communication. She is essentially another one of these social media business types, who is all show and does not treat her paying clients, who trusted her with one of life's most precious memories, with the respect or dignity of communication and resolution. Instead she just pretends like we don't exist and moves on. If you care about actually getting your photos and the memories of these special occasions in your life, don't hire her!

I am honestly so sad that I have to write this but I want to share my story with everyone so that…read morehopefully people will learn from my mistake. I was recommended VHP by my wedding planner who had said she'd worked with her multiple times in the past and was great! With the package we got - it even gave us an extra photographer for part of our day. I was ecstatic and after that had an initial call and both my partner and I loved her and hired her within the same week as our call. With our package, we received a free engagement session in LV and she made it to that, however..we did have to bug her to receive the final deliverables (she was a few weeks late past the due date) since we wanted to use it for our wedding guestbook. Red flag #1. On to the wedding day - She was great and helped the day run smoothly trying to capture everything..however, the extra photographer that was promised didn't show (they didn't tell me until after because they figured it was best so fair enough) but now I'm even questioning that even if it was promised that this person even existed in the first place. But, that is my personal opinion. We received 30 sneaks 4 days after the wedding, and then we're supposed to receive the online gallery with final deliverables within 8 weeks. Our wedding was mid August 2022. Since after the expected due date, I have been consistently following up (politely but consistently) via text, email, responding to socials, and now writing a review in hopes of an update or response. It seems that I'm not alone in this situation. She's currently gone on a hiatus due to personal reasons which I respect and I hope she does heal fully and my heart goes out to her - BUT at the end of the day. This is a business, you're expected to communicate and deliver. If you don't have enough time, hire help. If you will miss the due dates due to sickness, personal issues, etc...COMMUNICATE. Clients are understanding (most are), but you need to let us know what's going on with our photos and status updates. You are holding on to our precious memories!!! Our once in a lifetime day. We have given you money in exchange for a service to which has not been competed. So we all need answers. Just COMMUNICATE please. Write us back and let us know that you received our messages. SOMETHING. To this day, now in 2023, I still only have 30 images only and nothing else. It pains me everyday. To end, I want to say that Vanessa is a fun, sweet person with a great personality who also happens to be a very talented photographer. However, listening to other people's horror stories, as well as my own - I cannot and will not ever recommend her to any future clients so please to anyone reading this, if you are planning to use Vanessa for your wedding photos - just keep all of these collective reviews on the back of your mind as she will be photographing one of the most important days of your life.
