A year later, she took our family's pictures for our son's one year birthday (cake smash) as well as for the holiday cards. She has a studio at her home with plenty of snacks while you do your sessions. It's also heated for those chillier winter months. The props she has are amazing and add a lovely style to her photos. She has a natural talent for finding perfect poses and the experience to get great angles. She also does locations other than her studio for photo shoots. For our maternity pictures we were at the beach and for our family pics we went to a hiking trail. She's able to taylor yo meet your needs. Her turnover to get pictures back to you is always quicker than she stated which is so lovely (especially when you want to get out holiday cards!) I highly recommend Jessica for her stellar services!

We were so pleasantly surprised when we saw the photos, ha! Jessica was fantastic to work with from the very beginning, offering lots of help with wardrobe choices, location choices, etc. We couldn't be happier with the outcome of our photoshoot and can't wait to hire Jessica again for more photos :) Thank you, Jessica!!!!

We set a date and time (my choosing) and she was able to be flexible with the time for me because you know how unpredictable newborns are. She arrived on time and prepared, and had several backdrops/props for me to choose from, and had a few ideas of her own since I didn't really know what I wanted. The results were fantastic, I got the images when she said I would (3 weeks, which I thought was a really fast turn around time) and I loved the pictures. I've already got 3 of them up on the wall! I won't be having any more newborns - but I would definitely recommend her for your newborn shoot.

She took the time to meet with me and my Husband before the shoot to get a feel for our personalities and style. She listened to our ideas and, on the day of the shoot, she collaborated with us to capture the types of shots we wanted. We got the pictures back and loved every single one! The day of the newborn shoot I was a little nervous because our daughter was so small, but Deanna was amazing with her! She was at our house for hours (I fed her twice) - she made sure to get the perfect shots. Any time our baby got fussy, she was able to comfort her and help sooth her back to sleep. The pictures are absolutely breathtaking!!! Everyone who sees them dies over how sweet they are and asks for her information. Not only is Deanna a great photographer, she is a genuinely sweet person who truly cares about her clients and is passionate about what she does. We have since used her for our Christmas photos and will never use anyone else! She has gone above and beyond to capture the perfect shots for us and her work has filled our home with special memories. I highly recommend Deanna to anyone who is looking for a family photographer. AMAZING!

The "journey" Carrie Anne set me on leading up to the actual boudoir session was arguably a bigger part of the photo shoot for me. ;) Carrie had a time line of to-do's for me, websites for garments I might want to buy, soooo much I wasn't expecting. And on the way, I found a new comfort with myself. By the time I got to Carrie Anne's for the photography... I was ready for this! I brought extra outfits and accessories and Carrie Anne helped me dial it in for an unforgettable experience. It's been about 3 years since my session and I still recall it like yesterday. I am close to 60 and have never felt so good about myself - not in a vain way. I was absolutely comfortable with me. Carrie Anne has a beautiful way about her. She'll set you at ease, and make this moment an unforgettable and personal experience. DO IT - you'll be happy you did. (Thank you, Carrie Anne!)

From the moment you book, she listens to what you want and guides you every step of the way. And during the shoot? Her posing direction is everything. You never feel awkward. She is insanely talented. Even the unedited photos are unreal. Honestly, the hardest part is narrowing down your favorites because you will want them all. If you are even thinking about booking, just do it. Trust.

There aren't enough words of praise in the English language for Shaun of Top Shelf Photo! We were…read morelucky enough to find him on Yelp for our engagement photos, and in mid-November of 2024 he braved the chill of Palomar Mountain to take spectacular photos of us. Nonstop compliments from friends and family, and received much quicker than anticipated. Once we got into wedding planning, Shaun was the obvious choice for our photography needs. Along with his second shooter Jess (Jessica Christie Photography), he again knocked it out of the park. Couldn't have asked for more perfect photos. On a more personal note, Shaun is the above-and-beyond type of person to take the absolute best shots possible. Like, fixing the boutonniere on my suit himself for the exact right angle, or gently shoo'ing away stinkbugs while helping my wife to re-tie her wedding shoes type of person. His passion and dedication for his craft are inspiring, and I guarantee if you don't love being in photos as a general rule (like myself) he will absolutely put you at ease and make it look like you've been modeling all your life. Thank you for everything Shaun, from the bottom of our hearts.
