Our maternity + family shoot was an absolute dream! Stephanie made my 2 year old daughter feel so…read morecomfortable- she was smiling and so happy the entire time, our photoshoot of the 3 of us was a dream come true. We have so many incredible options to choose from, I simply gave up trying to narrow them down further. She knew exactly all the style shots and location to make this day absolutely perfect. As someone who has always been a bit aphrenrsive on getting photographed in my pregnant condition and then always been a bit of "eh, we can take these photos ourselves" type of person, I couldn't be more thrilled with this investment and how wonderful it was working with her. We can't wait to see her again when our baby is born!

And has great work for you to have as a keepsake whether it's candids of you chasing your little or graduation to wedding pictures? Then mari is your girl! I've been going to her since Mother's Day 2019 and she's captured all my eldest firsts from our Mother's Day to birthday to Christmas! Her work shows how much she tries to capture you and your little in the moment! She takes her time to get to know you, your life, and to become a friend! She is so patient with Miguel and knows how to capture him in the moment (I have yet found a photographer who can capture Miguel laughing or smiling in a photo like she has). Personally my experience with mari has been nothing but phenomenal! She keeps in touch and sends me updates about my sessions. I've always came back to her even when there's other photographers in Ventura asking when I'd book with them. (Usually try others once just because of friendship but always find myself booking again with mari consistently) her work has improved over the years, her editing style is something I always loved and obsessed over. Her work isn't just meant to be shown on Instagram but printed and frame to be placed above the fireplace or wall for everyone to see! I have so many printed photos up on our wall that was taken by her! I highly recommend mari to anyone that wants photos done because these are memories you'll want later and will never regret! Can't wait to be back in California to book a family session that now includes a new little and a dad! You literally get what you pay for, if not more.

I believe I may have been another victim of this so called photographer. Services were never…read morerendered nor a refund was ever processed. I am looking for other victims who may have been victimized by this person as I will be filing paperwork for fraud. If you would like to include your name in this civil litigation please contact me directly on this app's messaging system. My review is as follows: Personally, I cannot stand when people prey on the vulnerable such as new mothers who are pregnant or in postpartum. It is sick for this woman to feel entitled to such beautiful moments and stripping families of what is supposed to be a joyous time. This woman needs to be stopped immediately. She knows her victims will just file a claim with their banks, but this is not at all ethical. Enough is enough. No more victims.

Would highly recommend!

After the first phone call with Jeff, I knew I was in good hands. He immediately made the entire process feel simple and straightforward. He walked me through everything, answered all my questions, and helped me think through details I hadn't even considered. On the day of the proposal, Jeff was calm, professional, and completely on point. When we received the photos, my fiancé and I were immediately blown away. They turned out way better than I expected. He didn't just take pictures; he captured genuine emotion, raw reactions, and moments we'll treasure forever. The lighting, timing, and angles were all perfect. Looking through them brought us right back to the moment. If you're even slightly stressed about hiring a photographer for a proposal or any special moment, Jeff is your guy.

Being from out-of-town, we didn't know a lot of details on what we needed, and Brian was flexible for our needs. He was also very helpful in making suggestions about what sorts of pictures to take and the timing of the day. Best of all, my parent's were really excited to have their special day recorded, and were thrilled by the pictures that they got! While all of the arranged pose pictures that he took were great, I really think that Brian's greatest strength is in his candid photo shots. We have pictures of some of our nephews smiling and having fun...and I don't think they have ever taken pictures like that before. The cost of our package was totally reasonable, and Brian provided many more pictures than we thought we were actually going to get. He also stayed longer than I had asked him to, so that he could get all of the pictures that we wanted. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone in the area needing special photos for a special day!
