I regretted this decision as my husband passed away two months after our boy was born. They were both so apologetic and kind and invited me back when I was ready to take baby pictures for me. I reached out again when I had reached a safe point in my grief when he was 9 months old. They even took some photos of him with his grandmothers as a combined grandmothers, baby, and mommy and me shoot. Not only did they capture one of my favorite times in his babyhood, they we so sweet with all the grandmas. They navigated a grumpy baby and were so understanding. With it still being 90+ degrees in fall you can only imagine. Thank you again for your empathy and kindness it cannot be duplicated.

We had so much fun she made the whole process feel easy and enjoyable. She was incredibly courteous, friendly, and very accommodating to everything I needed. What I really appreciated is that she took her time and never rushed me, making sure every detail was just right. She asked the right questions prior meeting to understand my vision. Her work is truly appreciated, and I highly recommend giving her a try she's humble and amazing at what she does! Sara Elias

0 Stars Absolutely the worst experience I've had with a…read morephotographer. My appointment was on August 11, and I was told I'd get my photos in about a week. Instead, it took over a month. I didn't receive the final pictures until September 15. I reached out several times asking for updates and was completely ignored. The lack of communication and professionalism was unacceptable. I would never recommend her to anyone do yourself a favor save yourself the stress and go somewhere else.

I took maternity photos, the shoot went well. I expected more options for what I paid. Once the…read moreshoot was done she promised me she would have my photos back in enough time to display them at my baby shower. She wrote the day down that I needed them by and told me to text her a day before to remind her. When I texted her I heard nothing back from her. She ignored me for several days then responded saying her "computer broke" and she was waiting for a new one. Her computer breaking had nothing to do with her phone and texting me back. If her computer really broke I feel like she would have said that when I initially texted her. Anywho, she then texted me stating I could pick out 3 backdrops to add to my photos free of charge because she didn't get my photos back to me on time. I sent her the backdrops I wanted with the pictures I wanted them on and still have not heard from her. This was over two moths ago! She is kind of unprofessional in my opinion for the price she charges. If you want someone honest with good quality and communication, I would recommend going elsewhere. My photos were just okay, I've had better, but wanted to give someone new a chance. She was also late to the studio for the session. I don't recommend this photographer.

My husband and I are expecting our first child, a boy, and since we couldn't have a gender reveal…read moreparty or a baby shower we still wanted to do something memorable to remember these precious times of our pregnancy. So my great husband surprised me by taking me to Santa Barbara for the day and then the cherry on top was that he hired a photographer, Mike, for a private photo shoot by the beach. Mike was extremely professional. He showed up on time and suggested a few locations along the coast, one of which was the Butterfly Beach and it was the perfect spot. He had all of his gear with him, and got right down to business. He is such a visionary and we immediately knew he's a true pro because he would see a rock and would guide us in positioning ourselves in a way that the pose looks both nice and natural at the same time. Photo shoots can sometimes feel a bit forced and a drag but not with Mike. He was talking to us and sharing stories with us the whole time. It was both entertaining and made the whole experience a lot more relaxed and natural. And the cherry on top was that we got all of our photos back within days so the thrill of that experience was still fresh and we were so delighted once we saw the finished photos. He captures amazing and authentic moments. I highly highly recommend Mike to anyone that wants a photo shoot for literary anything. We already know that Mike will do our baby's photo shoot once he's born and all the other previous times in our lives we would like to be captured.

Just over two years ago, I produced and directed a music video for a Bakersfield artist. Given the…read moreskeleton crew and overall budget, the music video shoot was somewhat quick and dirty, but I was happy with the final product. At the behest of the executive producer, MKC Photography was hired by the production to provide behind-the-scenes photography. First and foremost, the quality of images we received is second to none. Edited images were delivered in a timely manner. In fact, the photos were finished way before the music video! In regards to our specific collaboration, what really set Michael apart (i.e. what makes him beyond invaluable) was his kind and generous spirit. He was very patient with us, the production. Personally, I deeply appreciated that behavior. In this current landscape where just about anyone can pick up a camera and call themselves a photographer, MKC is a consummate professional. Oh and his replies are typically very fast, which I also appreciate! Our needs for his services were rather specific; this is true. However, I have seen his other work, namely event photography of say live concerts. It too, is just great. MKC Photography is really that damn good. FVE

*Hard to get in touch with. Cat and mouse communication…read more *Photos look as if they were captured in the dark of night rather than the morning - being that my daughter was wearing dark colored uniform, and is herself a young woman of color, this poor lighting made for a dark, dim image of her. She appears darker skin tone than she actually is. If this was human error, than checking his own work and refusing to produce anything less than optimal quality should've prompted him to redo or touch up, but he churned out this poor poor product nonetheless, so I have to deduce that he is too busy making money and lean on professional integrity. Yes, Im very disappointed in this work. I will NOT ever utilize his services again.

But I also believe that every woman is immensely beautiful in their own amazing way. We all have a fire within us and many times it just needs a little help and friendly reminder to bring that fire out and show others around you, and prove to YOURSELF that you are amazing. From the moment I started communicating with Stephanie I felt at ease. She was organized, reassuring and helped guide me before I ever even stepped foot in her Downtown Studio. The morning of the shoot I met her and instantly felt her passion and could see it in her eyes that she believed in my own inner beauty. The studio is beautiful and classy, soft and elegant. She brought out a great side of me- strong, fierce and just beautiful. Then to see the results, the photos... I just couldn't believe that was me! The entire session was wonderful. Her professionalism carried through the entire shoot and she was so relaxed and "go with the flow". I strongly recommend that you book with her, she will help inspire your own fire within and help remind you of how beautiful you truly are! Don't forget to follow her on Instagram too, she runs limited booking specials at time. Book a session, I guarantee you (and your partner if your gifting photos to) wont be sorry!
