You should be aware that the owner (Mary) is not the photographer. She has no knowledge of, or…read morecontrol over, the photographer's work. I cannot recommend this photographer. I paid $450 for professional photography for my daughter's first birthday, a once-in-a-lifetime celebration that cost over $7,000. I trusted this photographer to capture such a special occasion, but the final gallery was extremely disappointing. Many of the photos were taken from low, unflattering angles, had poor composition, or were unnecessarily repetitive. Several important moments were either missed or not captured well. What was even more disappointing was the response afterward. When I raised my concerns, the photographer claimed that the angles had been "edited to eye level." That explanation made little sense. While editing can adjust exposure, color, and cropping, it generally cannot change the original camera angle or perspective. A photo taken from a low angle cannot realistically be transformed into an eye-level shot through editing alone. The photographer also failed to avoid obvious reflections in people's eyeglasses. Can you imagine paying $450 for professional photos, only to receive images in which bright white glare obscures people's eyes and faces? Instead of acknowledging the problems or offering a reasonable solution, Mary, the owner, refused to take responsibility or provide a refund. This was my daughter's once-in-a-lifetime first birthday, and after spending over $7,000 on the celebration, I expected professional-quality photographs that would preserve those memories. Unfortunately, both the quality of the photographs and the customer service fell far below my expectations.

I highly recommend Nicole Harkin! She took some great headshots for me last week to update the…read more20-year-old photo on my LinkedIn account and I couldn't be more pleased. I was nervous and had no clue, but Nicole has a great camera and made me feel comfortable. She helped me choose two different outfits and asked me to sit/stand in three different spots in her cute backyard -- we chatted as she snapped away. I really prefer the outdoor background -- it doesn't look like you are sitting in front of a boring screen in the high school gym or empty office down the hall. She told me how to sit and brushed away stray hairs (my brother did not do that!). She is really terrific and made it affordable and fun. I have been working online (and hope to continue doing so with my next job) and it will be nice to have a professional looking photo to add to my various media platforms. Sorry to gush, but I like to thank good work and support local small businesses. Chris.

Nicole is a natural at capturing precious moments of your family life without being posed and intrusive. Kids respond easily to Nicole's friendly, casual approach. And as soon as the kids are happy, the parents relax a little. But the best part is seeing the images we got back! A TON of great shots of each of the kids, the kids together, all of us together, and just my husband and me. Nicole is able to capture natural smiles, sweet moments for each child, and bits of all of our personalities melding together! She photographs in natural light, outside, where everyone seems comfortable, and the lighting is great! Nicole offers a variety of packages to fit all of her customers' schedules and budgets. She is kind, organized, thoughtful, and efficient... and has a great eye for capturing the best pics in the moment!

Bottom Line: Best photographer in the Annapolis area for headshots and family photos!…read more If you are thinking about booking an appointment with Heather Crowder for photography just do it! The glowing reviews on Google and the gorgeous images on her website unequivocally speak to the talent and professionalism of Heather Crowder and her photography. Additionally, she is a beautiful and delightful person. Earlier this year I needed new professional headshots. I fumbled around the internet trying to find the right photographer for me and then I received a graduation announcement in the mail that included a stunning photo of the graduate taken by Heather Crowder. At that point I was positive that Heather Crowder was my photographer of choice. I subsequently looked at her website and the Google reviews which further bolstered my confidence in her abilities and my choice. I had several email exchanges and phone calls with Heather in advance of my session and all of them were warmhearted and beneficial. I felt well prepared and at ease with Heather when picture day rolled around! I also used the professional hair and makeup artist provided by Heather and she was top notch! Generally, I would much rather go to the dentist or jury duty than get my picture taken but Heather made it a comfortable experience and my images turned out better than I could have imagined! Heather knows how to give directions for the perfect, flattering pose. She also reads body language well and could tell when a pose felt unnatural for me or I was getting tired or too warm. Heather's talent goes beyond the camera. On the day of my session Heather helped me pick out my outfits and assisted me with getting jewelry on, rolling cuffs, etc. I really appreciated having her help me with these details. I also appreciate that she understands branding and knows how to create photos that represent one's person brand. She wants everyone to look and feel like the best version of themselves and she was instrumental in helping me achieve that. I had my photos taken at the lovely Lightbox Studio in the Annapolis Arts District on West Street. The studio place is bright, contemporary and inspiring but for those who prefer another location, Heather can accommodate that as well. Regarding the Lightbox Studio, there is some nearby street parking and a garage about a block away so that was convenient. I love my portraits taken by Heather and I hightly recommend her!
