Booked somewhat last minute to commemorate our first beach trip as a family. She was amazing, and a…read moregreat value (we were down in Avon, but didn't charge a travel fee like some others). She was very skilled and the photos we got were absolutely what I was hoping for (I wanted a lot of bright photos- taking advantage of the beautiful sunset lighting- plenty of portraits and candids that captured my little guy who tends to get "serious face" in pictures) Took about 3-4 weeks to turn around, and once they did we were able to download instantly (we pre-paid for the digitals and got a free canvas). She also mailed us a Thumbdrive of the photos to keep. Looking forward to using her for future trips- we highly recommend!

While we were here we thought we should get family photos on the beach to commemorate the occasion and our time together. Elizabeth was incredible with the littles in our family, and we were incredibly pleased with how our photos turned out. She was so easy to communicate with. She watched the weather and had us move our day so we would have beautiful backgrounds. I can't say enough about our experience. Don't second guess booking her!

Our family is spread out around the country - but every so often we get together and meet at the…read moreOBX. We figured this would be a great time to get family photos done - especially since a year prior our father had passed. I emailed 10-15 people, but Julie was the only one to call to talk through the details. As a new mom with a young one, this went along way (because yeah, I probably would have missed the email). The pricing was also competitive. Definitely worth more :) We worked directly with Eric, and he was AMAZING. We had two infants and a special needs child in our group (again, it was an occasion memorializing your father's passing so tension was high...OH and a lot of family in one place which is always fun). Eric managed it all flawlessly! Anyway our entire group was BLOWN AWAY by the quality of photos and we all found many photos we absolutely love. Getting pictures done is usually not a "fun" thing to do but with Eric and Julie Dreelin' getting photos turned into the highlight of our trip and will be a lastly wonderful memory!

We were both so nervous as we have never had professional photos done, but she made us feel so comfortable! She even let us reschedule twice because it was too cold for us those days, ha! Also, we brought our horse and she was so patient as we had to work around my horse's agenda too (aka walking in front of the camera and grabbing mouthfuls of grass)! She had our photos to us in less than a week and they are sooooo beautiful. I will cherish them for a lifetime. Would give her 10 stars if I could. Thank you so much Julie!
