We didn't have to prepare much and Mily worked us through everything. It was exactly the experience we expected -- a breezy fun entertaining photographing experience, which itself is also as important as the final delivery. Mily gave us a wonderful time! Final results also look awesome. We had many choices to choose from and she set up a very nice digital tool to let us select what we want and pick ones we want to use for final deliverable. It has been great and I cannot be more grateful for Mily! Will work with her again after the baby is born!

Not only does Erica take breathtaking pictures (we were just speechless with the results of what…read moreshe sent us). But, she puts the subject/subjects at ease . I've had the luck of getting to do a few shoots with her and I have never had so much taking photos!! For me , getting my photo taken is daunting and stressful... Erica is so down to earth with the right amount of funny and just made the experience so fun. If you are reluctant about pictures or who to choose .... look no further. I'm serious . Her work should be hanging in museums . I'm not just a "yelper" I'm also a client ;) Thanks for such great memories and the portraits that will last a lifetime

When you see her photos you feel like you're a part of that particular moment in time. We were fortunate enough to have her for a newborn shoot and family shoot and could not be happier. She captured the sweetest moments in the newborn shoot and she captured all the crazy life we brought to the family shoot. On a personal level, she is the easiest person to love. She makes you laugh and feel at ease when the camera is in your face and she is not afraid to do what it takes to get the perfect shot. We look forward to working with her in the years to come.

If ever I remarry I will DEFINITELY call Jim Jordan. Thank You So Much It was my pleasure watching you work Sir.

She is easy to work with, has great ideas for photos, and was open to our very random and odd suggestions and requests lol In addition to being kind and fun to work with, she was professional and prompt. We received a link to our photos in only a couple of days! We got married in July in a courthouse wedding. Francesca took photos at the ceremony, at a small dinner we had with friends and then we had a photoshoot afterwards. I will definitely hire Francesca in the future for other photo shoots and we definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

Chasing Pleasures is the place to go to make that happen, but I had no idea just how much they'd come through for us. Imagine this: you're trying to remember every last detail - outfits, snacks, wipes, you name it - while gathering up your kids, yourself, and your husband, all dressed and ready to get out the door. After all that, we barely made it to the studio on time, and of course, it wasn't until we walked in that I realized I'd forgotten to check if my all-black shirt was free of lint. That's when Andy, without skipping a beat, pulled out a lint roller and saved my day. It was such a small thing, but in that moment, it meant everything. Chasing Pleasures is a family company, and they get it - they know what families need before we even realize we need it. Thanks to them, what felt like a monumental task turned out to be a breeze. Thank you, Chasing Pleasures, for making something that seemed so hard feel so simple.

She took all the money before the session started and totally dumped our rare, once-in-a-lifetime family gathering, including our daughter's first photo shoot. The photographer promised delivery within three weeks but has since ignored all calls and emails. It's been 40 days, and we've received nothing. This unprofessional behavior has caused us to lose invaluable memories. Absolutely unacceptable.

Marisa and her husband photographed our intimate wedding in Malibu in November of 2017. This review…read moreis long overdue... Marisa went above and beyond all expectations we had in a wedding photographer. Our wedding was nontraditional - it was a small, intimate beach wedding and my wife and I had not extensively planned the timing and details of the ceremony itself until speaking with Marisa. Aside from planning the right timing for the events to happen so that the lighting was just right, she gave us so much direction and advice on other aspects of our evening that we had not even thought of, and it paid off. Her and her husband have an amazing energy - they are very calming, fun and organized, knowing exactly how to resolve potential issues and help coordinate on the fly. Our families later commented to us on how awesome they were. Of course, the photos were absolutely incredible. The lighting, edits, it all looks so natural and perfect. She is a true artist in that her photos do not look overly-shopped, they just look amazing. She is truly great at her craft and I could not recommend her more highly.

Her communication throughout the process was amazing, and she guided us with poses that looked beautiful in photos. I truly cannot express how much I love every single photo! Her editing style is absolutely stunning the colors are dreamy, soft, and timeless. My husband and I did two maternity shoots with her, one at a tulip field and another in the almond blossoms and both sessions turned out even better than we imagined. She also has a beautiful client closet, which made the whole experience so much easier. On top of that, she provides styling guides, which I loved because it made planning easy especially since I was pregnant. 10/10 would absolutely recommend Megan!

Megan brings such an inviting, warm, and comfortable environment; that is especially important for me since I am not very comfortable being in front of the camera. I am so happy and so lucky to have had Megan as our photographer, I LOVE a professional whose communication since day one was superb, she gave me all the information we needed, and the day of the photoshoot she told me exactly what to do which is the kind of direction I needed and that took soooo much weight off my shoulders. We all had so much fun during the shoot as well, she made sure I was comfortable and even brought an extra coat in case I got cold. I cannot recommend Megan enough! We are so incredibly grateful for her and the energy she brings! Truly a delight to be around and so so kind. She is truly talented and we are forever filled with gratitude. So happy that we can see her work through her photos for the rest of our lives

Where do I even begin?! Emily and her team have far exceeded my expectations of what a photography…read moreand videography service should be! Emily has gone above and beyond to capture the special moments of my now husband and I. I remember the first moment when I spoke with her, and from that one phone conversation, I knew that she and I would not only share the same vision for photography (how I would like my pictures to be captured and how she captures photographs), but also become friends!! our first phone conversation was about four months prior to the wedding, and I had not done anything to plan for it! I am a busy resident physician, and I also wanted to plan my own wedding, but I didn't know where to start! So on that day, in between me seeing patients, Emily and I had a really brief phone conversation, where she said three simple words, "I got you!" Since that fateful day, she has not given us a dream engagement photo shoot (at the very beach in which my husband, and I fell in love with in Malibu, the El Matador state Beach!) but also our very special moments on our special wedding day! In the middle of me getting pulled in different directions even on that wedding day... the minute she walked in with her team, I felt sense of calm and comfort, knowing that she was there to make sure that even though I couldn't remember everything that was happening that day because it was so busy, I trusted that she would be able to make sure I could remember those details later on in photographs! Aside from her warm heart and truly genuine personality, her work is fantastic! My husband and I have a very particular vision and preference for the type of photographs that we would like, and she fits that and more! If you look through her portfolio on her website or on her Instagram, you can see the brightness that she exuberance in her own personality onto her art. The way she captures the light is so unique, and she truly is the most talented photographer that I've ever come across. Therefore, I follow my gut and knew that she is the best of the best! I cannot wait until she continues to capture more delicate moments of our lives as I hope to continue to get to know her as well personally because she truly is one of the most special people on this universe!
