From the beginning of the process, he was excellent at communication and allowed us the freedom to choose our location. We went with Ghirardelli Square, which is notoriously crowded on weekends. Nonetheless, Dawid was willing to accommodate our wishes and find the shots despite the crowd. We really had fun shooting with Dawid. He gave direction with posing which was a huge relief for me and my fiance. At the end of the session, we were both in such a great mood, and could not wait to see what he had captured. About a week later, we received our photographs and were blown away. We could not believe that was us. The way he composed the shots was so artistic. His editing style brought vibrant color to each image. There was diversity within the set of images: some wide-angle, some with movement, some fixed. The photographs have been unanimously loved by our families, friends, and ourselves. Thank you Dawid! You have a gift so we hope you continue to share it with the world.

Absolutely amazing!…read more We had a rough night and morning the day of our photo shoot but from the second we walked into Starla's studio her professionalism and calming vibes wiped all that away. The session was more than we expected we sat back on the comfy couch while she worked her baby whispering magic. She had all the sets we had discussed prepared so no time was wasted from one background/set to the next. She took such care and detail to capture the perfect pose every time. We just saw our gallery and the photographs she captured are absolutely breathtaking. Every single one better than I could've imagined!

If you've ever tried capturing 5 people, including 3 toddlers, in a photograph for your holiday…read morecards, you will feel my pain. Especially if you have a crappy point and shoot digital camera with a 4 second delay. So, this year, we decided to hire a professional family photographer. We found someone who lives nearby, has kids of her own, has a natural/organic style to her photos, and is pretty inexpensive to come to our home and take some pictures in our natural setting. No dragging kids to the mall and praying they don't melt down! She was fine with clothing and setting changes if desired, and provided 2 hours of unobtrusive, interactive photography. We were hoping that Nicole would get at least one decent photo of us all with our eyes open -- that was all. Well, she got more beautiful shots than we could afford to purchase! She was super sweet and great with the kids. It went as smoothly as it possibly could have, given our configuration of personalities. I'd highly recommend her for photos of families and/or kids!

Pros: - prompt response through email…read more- had my digital photos stored from 2009 - professional photography skills Cons: - hard to reach over the phone - suggested the problem was my fault - not personable - poor customer service - unprofessional looking web design - lots of typos on their site - poor programming on site In 2009, I had family portraits done with Pro Image Studios when it was located in the San Jose, CA area. The family was finally united with my brother just returned from having been deployed to Iraq, and I was about to leave the state for school. Overall, we were pleased with our experience initially with our photographer, the shooting experience and the photos. The 2 stars are for the service I experienced in the present time. Fast forward to 2017, our house has been destroyed in a fire and everything was lost. Naturally, we wanted to get our photos back, and I discover that Pro Image Studios migrated elsewhere. On their web site, I find that they've changed their name to "Creative Imaging." For several weeks, calling the establishment was of little or no avail. I decide to email them which was encouraged on their site. It is acknowledged and appreciated that my correspondent typically replied by the next morning to my emails if not shortly thereafter. My family was strongly interested in buying digital copies of our photos as well as prints since these mattered so much to us. I made a rather large purchase to get a direct download of my digital photos. Their site seemed very disjointed, and sometimes it didn't feel very intuitive to navigate. Every page they sent me looked different from the initial layout. When I purchased a package to directly download, the confirmation page gave no instructions on how to receive my product. I felt I had to bother my correspondent to clarify this, and she said they would be available within a week. Then came several days of confusion and frustration reaching out to this person that the photos were inaccessible. She insisted that there was nothing wrong. I got the impression she was blaming me for the trouble rather than troubleshooting the problem properly. After entertaining her by trying and re-trying, then re-trying again on 2 computers and 5 different browsers for several days, she finally decided to burn the photos onto a CD to be mailed. I believe their photography skills are professional. But their inability to admit fault, to apologize for the inconvenience of not being able to receive my product in a timely manner, or to troubleshoot adequately the problem without placing blame on the customer's end is the reason why I gave two stars. Further, this was the first time sharing with a professional establishment that no one expressed sympathy for having lost our belongings to a house fire. Not that that particularly means anything, but it's just an observation of indifference in stark contrast to other businesses where we've had to re-order something to replace whatever was lost to a fire. My encounter with Pro Image Studios/Creative Imaging was overall a negative experience. We were not impressed with the way it was handled over email, and we chose not to get prints from them. I also found it unprofessional that their site was visually unappealing with numerous typos. At end of these encounters, I did get my photos. I am grateful that my business with them is done.

The prices are expensive and the package options are not great. We took pictures in March 2014.
