Real-Talk Review for Bella Rosa Boudoir…read more Ladies, listen. If you've ever even thought about doing a boudoir shoot, stop overthinking it and book Bella Rosa Boudoir in Auburn. This was one of the most empowering, confidence-boosting experiences of my life. From the second I walked in, Taylor (the photographer) made me feel like an absolute queen. She picked outfits and colors that brought out my eyes and personality perfectly. Whitney, the makeup artist, worked her magic -- soft, natural, and beautiful -- I looked like me, just the "glammed-up goddess" version. Michael and Brittney, the owners, have created such a warm, classy, judgment-free space that celebrates women at every stage of life. The studio is stunning, they have racks of outfits, shoes that would make Lady Gaga jealous, and an atmosphere that just screams self-love. I walked in feeling a little nervous and walked out standing taller, smiling bigger, and feeling proud of who I am. I just picked my photos and I can't wait to see them finished. If you're looking for a sign to do something for you -- this is it. You will not regret it.

Do it! Is it expensive, yep! Is it worth it, also yep! It's an investment you need to make for…read moreyourself. They have everything you will ever need and more, outfits tons, jewelry ton, sets of all kinds, also tons. Make up - check! Hair - check! I just finished looking at my photos for the first time and I'll tell ya, it was one of those realizations that I need to look at myself differently. Self love is hard but sooooo worth it. I learned a lot too. This time I was just along for the ride no real expectations just kind of whatever they said I did. Next time, yes, there will be a next time. I would definitely pick out my own outfits from the 1000 that was available, I would go in with photos of hair and makeup I wanted, and also some ideas of specific photos I wanted. If you read this far, do it. You'll thank yourself later.

I cannot say enough great things about Westfall Visuals! They handled both the photography and…read morevideography for my wedding this month, and the entire experience has been incredible from start to finish. First off, the team that showed up on the day of our wedding was amazing. They arrived early, were professional, and immediately got to work. They made sure we captured every shot I had envisioned, while also bringing their own creative ideas to the table--and those ended up being some of my favorite moments from the day! Even though I've only received my sneak peeks so far, I am already blown away. The quality, the vision, and the attention to detail are all exactly what I was hoping for and more. Knowing that everything is then edited by Isabelle Westfall herself gives me even more confidence that the final product is going to be something we'll treasure forever. If you're looking for a wedding photography and videography team that is professional, creative, and truly invested in your day, I highly recommend Westfall Visuals. I cannot wait to see the full gallery and video!

Izzy was an awesome photographer to work with. She shot our small family-only backyard wedding and…read moredid a wonderful job. From out first contact (through yelp), she was extremely easy to work with, including when we had a last-day venue change due to weather. Izzy arrived early and made recommendations on where to place our arch for best lighting. She was easygoing, fun, and fit right in with our family. Since we are not used to being center of photos, Izzy provided great direction in terms of posing. The photos that came back were perfect. They also came back very quickly... I believe our whole gallery was available in 4 days. We could not have been happier with the photos. Thanks so much, Izzy!

Ann has the ability to capture light so beautifully that every photo looks perfect even when it's candid. I felt very insecure when I gained weight during my pregnancy, and moreso taking newborn photos. But Ann takes time consulting you on best clothes to wear, and using her expertise to capture beauty in all things even when you don't feel your best. She not about getting the shot done, rather, curating an image she knows we will love for an eternity. Thank you Ann for following us through our family's crazy journey. And for putting so much love and commitment into your work. We can't wait for our next session with you!

She made us feel so comfortable and relaxed during the shoot (and I am definitely looking forward to that on our wedding day when I am bound to be stressed out!).

I will update after the wedding to let everyone know how AMAZING our pictures turned out! :)

We had no time limit for our shoot which allowed for nursing breaks as needed. The atmosphere was perfect and comfortable for baby and for parents! The quality of the photos are fantastic. I am so happy to have the beautiful photos that we can look back on years from now.
