My wife and I had the much anticipated pleasure of having Daniel Frasier as our Wedding…read morephotographer. We say "much anticipated" because he was recommended to us by our wedding planner, "The Event Loft". And we were very happy for the recommendation. Daniel's photography captured the essence of our wedding day. He did so with sensitivity, insight and artistic interpretations of many of the important moments of our Wedding and Reception. His use of the natural, evening atmosphere illuminated with the scores of table candles and overhead market lights was spectacular! He brought even more energy to the day with the facial photographs of our family and friends. His photography artistically painted the true happiness of the day! Ultimately, Daniel delivered the finished photographs by a flash drive that was elegantly placed in a small, wooden box wrapped with a silk ribbon. We were so impressed by Daniel's simple presentation and creative capturing of the precious, fleeting moments of our Wedding and Reception. We thank Daniel for his artistic interpretations and thoughtful photography in keeping the happiest day of our lives with us forever. Recommending Daniel will always be a pleasure and an honor. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Ringo

He is fantastic at getting his clients to relax in front of the camera so that he can capture genuine moments between you and your loved one. My husband and I both don't feel "natural" in front of the camera, but luckily for us, Daniel is a talented photographer and pose coach rolled into one! We had an amazing time on our engagement shoot - way more fun than we thought possible. Daniel is hardworking, understanding, and very generous with his time and expertise, and even gave us feedback on other aspects of the wedding planning process. We love our wedding photos and can't wait to receive our album! Bottom line: if you're like us (what do we do with our hands??), do yourself a big favor and give Daniel a call!

We had a Palm Springs engagement shoot with her after booking and she absolutely killed it! Those will forever be some of my favorite photos! On our wedding day, Ashley got every. single. detail.

Savannah took our engagement photos in Lake Tahoe (pictured) and will also be our wedding…read morephotographer next year. There are so many things I can say about how wonderful and talented she is (and the photos truly speak for themselves), but I will break down a few of my favorite qualities in the following categories: Communication: Savannah prides herself on being an excellent communicator, and I can see why! She is super responsive to email and answered all of our questions so quickly and thoroughly. We gave Savannah a few pointers about what our vision was for the location of our shoot (expansive views, nature, forest, etc.), and she came through with amazing, well-researched and thoughtful recommendations. We ultimately chose Lake Tahoe based on her suggestion! She also kept us apprised of the timeline for our photoshoot day and what to expect. After our photoshoot, she sent us sneak peaks almost immediately. We were so impressed, and obsessed over our photos for weeks! Photography: Her skills are off the charts. She captures the best, most natural moments and makes you feel incredibly comfortable while doing it (even in freezing cold weather!). If you think you or your partner may be awkward, you have nothing to worry about. She has poses ready to go so you don't have to think too much. You just get to enjoy the day while she captures the magic. She is also very receptive to your own suggestions! If there is a pose you want to try or a specific picture you want to capture, she welcomes it. Personality: Savannah is the sweetest person. We had so much fun hanging out with her leading up to, during, and after our shoot. She is extremely easy to get along with and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and making this the best experience for them. Her work ethic is amazing to see: she puts an enormous amount of time and effort into making your photoshoot come out perfectly, and she does this on top of her super busy schedule. She also goes above and beyond. From the beginning, she answered my millions of questions and even researched dress options for me! We honestly had so much fun during our engagement shoot that we regularly reminisce and want to go back and redo it! :) TL;DR - If you are researching adventure photographers and you don't know what to do, book Savannah ASAP! We literally could not be happier with our experience and CANNOT WAIT for her to shoot our wedding!

After seeing just a few sneak peeks so far, we are even more excited to see the whole album! They turned out exactly how we envisioned. Booking with Amie was extremely easy as well. Her response time was quick and she was very helpful in preparing us for what to expect. We asked her for recommendations on where to shoot and she was very knowledgable about the area and type of setting we were interested in. We genuinely are happy with our experience working with Amie and will be back for more photos in the future with our little one!

This review is long over due ! I had my son in March & throughout my pregnancy I had everything…read morethought out from our gender reveal to his going home outfit, to a maternity photoshoot to everything else in between... EXCEPT a newborn session !! IDK why that never crossed my mind, but apparently those are scheduled MONTHS in advance to ensure there is a spot reserved when the time comes ! I had no idea the window for a newborn is so small (it's like a 12 day window or something like that) so they must be done right away. Timing is critical ! After a few tries of reaching out to photographers, I was referred by Holly Heine to Julie Irene ! & I am SO glad she pointed me in her direction !! Right off the bat I was amazed at her work (I am a photographer myself, so I am very picky !!!!). Julie's work does not scream tacky JCPenny photo session. You can tell right away that every session is unique & catered to ones individual style ~ I just LOVE that !!! I felt very confident upon booking the session with her & was excited. We ended up doing a family session & I added the make up artist onto the package (worth it in my opinion, when you're a new mom getting ready is an impossible task sleep deprived !). The clothing she provides from her prop room for your little one are all hand made by herself & so adorable & timeless. When it was time to go take a look at the photos (a couple weeks later), I was amazed. She had so many options, it was a bit overwhelming but she made it easy to help narrow it down. Our package included a folio box which is an awesome investment ! It is sitting in our living room today. She also sends high res jpegs so you can get those printed on your own at a lab which is awesome. Photos are so important to me, they solidify the memories making them eternal. So yes Julie Irene I'd 10000% recommend. The fact she took me in last minute is amazing !!! She was so patient with scheduling us, the first day we couldn't make it & she could of charged some sort of fee but didn't. She is very patient, & understanding ! She is very gentle & is a baby whisperer with your newborn ! If you are looking for a newborn photographer, book your session here. The next round I will be booking her again !

While pregnant with my 2nd son I was in search of a photographer to do a newborn session since I…read morehad done one for my 1st son. For my 1st son we went through a different company as it was during the peak Covid-19 pandemic so I had opted for an in home session. I found Julie after a lot of researching online. Immediately fell in love with her work. Reached out to her to see if I could get more info regarding the newborn session. Her assistant called, left me a voicemail along with a follow up email. Unfortunately, I was unable to get back to her for about 2 months because I was still working full time and had a toddler to take care of so time got the best of me. When I did reach back out to her assistant I did not get a response after leaving a voicemail and email. I was still very interested in working with Julie so tried one last time to get in contact via her website. Julie herself immediately responded to me and apologized. Was so glad to hear from her. We were able to get a date/time for us to go to her studio for a quick meeting so she could go over the process, available packages and give us a tour of her studio. Love her studio and loved meeting her as well! She is super sweet and her studio is so spacious. One of the rooms also has bins of toys to keep toddlers preoccupied while she works with the newborn(s). After the meeting I knew I wanted her to do the newborn session for my 2nd son so I signed the contract. After my son was born I let her know our expected go home date and we scheduled for the session about 10 days out. Everything went smoothly day of the session. I had paid a small extra fee to have her hair & makeup girl doll me up as well. She made me look pretty as I was already sleep deprived with a newborn lol. Julie also has boppy and breastfeeding pillows so you can comfortably nurse your newborn to sleep for the photo session. Julie and her assistant were great with both our newborn and toddler. The photos came out amazing and the album we purchased is absolutely beautiful. We are so happy to have had Julie do our 2nd son's newborn session.

It didn't turn out how I envisioned the seamstress completely messed it up, and there was no time to fix it. I didn't feel like myself, and honestly, I dreaded how I'd look in my photos. But somehow... she changed everything. She saw beauty where I couldn't. Through her lens, she captured the love, the joy, the quiet in-between moments, and the emotion of the day in a way that made me cry when I saw the pictures. She reminded me that my wedding wasn't about the dress it was about the love, the people, and the memories. And she preserved those memories so beautifully. Every photo radiates warmth and magic, and I'll cherish them for the rest of my life. She didn't just take pictures -- she gave me back a part of the day I thought was lost. For that, I am forever thankful. If you're looking for someone who captures not just images, but feeling, look no further.

If you want to re-live your big day over and over again years later, James is your guy! My wife and I had never done a professional photoshoot. Neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera. After interviewing 5 different photographers, we knew from our first conversation that James was the one. He is incredibly friendly, easy going, and knowledgeable. We agreed to do an engagement session, 1 location for 90mins to see if we'd be comfortable working with James. It couldn't have gone better. Initially, we were a bit stiff, but James gave us tips on how to act naturally, suggested poses and hand positions that made us feel and look relaxed. The time flew by and we actually ended up going to a second location with a wardrobe change. Overall, it was about 2 hours. James did not mind at all. In fact, he probably could've gone longer if the sun hadn't set on us! Our photos were edited and received in less than 2 weeks! James was kind enough to print a large poster and sign that shipped to our house in just a few days. He price matched any package/prints from other photographers. Having gone through our engagement session seamlessly, we hired James to shoot our wedding as well. He and an assistant were on site for 10 hours, tending to our every need and keeping us on our timeline. After our planned family/wedding party photos, we hardly even noticed them working as we proceeded with wedding events. After the wedding, we received many compliments on how great James was and several guests asked for his contact information. Within a couple of days, we received a preview of about 20 photos highlighting our big day. We were thrilled! Every important moment was captured so elegantly! The full magazine of photos was available for download in about 1 month. James then worked with us to print a high quality photo book for our coffee table. You can't go wrong with James--his high quality work and work ethic speak for themselves. There is no substitute for how easy and stress free he made us feel, so that we could truly enjoy ourselves knowing that he would capture every single moment candidly. Do not hesitate to hire James, it will be the best decision you will ever make.
