I've been lucky enough to know, and call Gerardo a friend for years. When it came to selecting a…read morewedding photographer, only one name was on our list. Even having to postpone our big day because of Covid, Gerardo remained the consummate professional. When the day finally came, he and Jessica were prompt, friendly, and got so many great shots. After the fact, we received our whole album exactly 3 weeks after. If you need someone who knows angles, lighting, all of that stuff that I have no eye for, and someone who will make you feel comfortable and calm on your big day, just hire Gerardo. You've got too many other things to worry about as a bride, he was literally one vendor I didn't have to stress over AT ALL. Also, all of your family and guests will love him just as much as you do.

The photographer is incredibly patient and professional, yet makes the session feel fun and natural -- no stiff poses, no "say cheese" nonsense. The photos themselves are amazing. Every shot captures genuine smiles and personality, whether it's a family session, a beach backdrop, or just everyday moments. You leave with images that look effortless but feel full of character. From start to finish, the experience is smooth and enjoyable. The staff make you feel comfortable, guide you through poses naturally, and ensure the end result is something you'll actually want to display. Highly recommend for anyone wanting professional photos without the awkwardness of a traditional studio.

I cannot emphasize enough the photographic skill and creativity of Richel Lavette. I recently…read morehosted a once-in-a-lifetime fraternity "Chartering" event that included both an early afternoon initiation, as well as a 190 person celebratory banquet including dinner, numerous guest speakers and awards to be presented. She handled both events professionally and with a great eye for framing, lighting and spontaneity. Richel Lavette is the consummate professional photographer. Her skill set includes image set up, proper lighting, images that tell a story, taking charge of large group photos with incredible tact, and looking for the small details that make a good image even better. Ms. Lavette can see what others do not. Her experience, and speed in finding the right images tell an unparalleled story. She requires initial input from the client, and once she understands the priorities, Richel can work independently with little to no supervision. But, beyond her obvious skills as a photographer, she has a strong work ethic and is always ready to capture a spontaneous moment that some photographers simply do not see. Her people skills are outstanding, and is always encouraging people to smile, and have fun while being photographed. Her greatest skills? The ability to listen, interpret, and deliver spectacular results. Lavette Photo Studios is an excellent photo studio, and I give Richel, and her studio my highest recommendations. She earned it.

Reagan is the best photographer that I have come across - look at the photos that I uploaded here…read moreto see some examples of her skills. Not only is she incredibly skilled at her work, but she is also very enthusiastic and upbeat. Her personality helped my husband and me instantly feel at ease in our elopement photoshoot, which is noticeable in the photos. I also appreciate that she welcomed our ideas for the photos and she was very open to exploring different poses. She also delivered a funny photo to us in the photo gallery that I really wanted, which I appreciate a lot. It shows that she listens and also has a good sense of humor too! Overall - Reagan ended up taking photos for an additional amount of time, delivering all of the photos early, and providing many more photos than the range that was originally stated in the contract. She did all of this without us asking and without extra charge! It's clear that Reagan has a true passion for photography and she's an extremely hard worker. I'm really so thankful that we found her and that she was available to do our elopement photoshoot. I highly recommend Reagan - you will have so much fun and will love her photos!!!

We had our own ideas, and although Stephanie was willing to accommodate, she strongly suggested an alternate, yet very beautiful, location which turned out to be much cooler, excellent lighting, and truly just wonderful back drop.

We definitely would consider her for our next photo shoot needs. Maybe the fall, in our alternate location. Thank you Stephanie for your wonderful communication, patience, and fun shoot.

Driving from Miami to Tampa for a maternity session was absolutely worth every mile. From the…read moremoment I arrived, it was clear how much care and thought goes into every detail. She doesn't just take beautiful photos--she creates an experience that feels personal, meaningful, and completely tailored to you. The images she captured are unlike anything I've ever received before: unique, artistic, and filled with genuine emotion. Every photo tells a story, and she has an incredible ability to capture special moments in a way that feels both natural and timeless. You can tell that she thoughtfully curates the space specifically for your session, making it feel warm, welcoming, and customized just for you. Her attention to detail, creativity, and passion for her craft shine through in every aspect of the experience. If you're considering booking a session, I cannot recommend her highly enough. I would gladly make the drive from Tampa to Miami again for photos this special.

My friend, Grace, used her and highly recommended her. I reached out and within a couple days we scheduled a session for my son's one year photos. Unfortunately, he was sick the day of his photos so we were able to reschedule for the week after. I really like how she has a list of places that she would recommend and pictures she has taken at each location. That's how we ended up at USF Marshall Center which wasn't on my radar at all for pictures. She sends information about parking, etc. ahead of time so I felt very prepared for the day. Her pricing is extremely reasonable. Photos can be expensive, we've done photos for every major milestone so I've seen prices that are all over the place. Kimberly has an array of pricing options that fit many different price points. Our session was 20 minutes, which is perfect for young children. I really appreciate that she has the couple take photos alone as well. When you have children, it's easy to lose yourself as part of a family. I really treasure the photos of just myself and my husband. The gallery was ready for view within a couple days and after we picked our favorites her turnaround time was extremely speedy as well. I love the end results. We will be blowing them up and framing them. These pictures bring me so much happiness. Five stars all around.

An Absolutely Magical Experience!…read more We had such a wonderful experience with Cece! My two children are usually very shy, especially around new people--and I was a little nervous about how a photo session with Santa would go. But from the moment we arrived, Cece made them feel completely at ease. They were incredibly patient, gentle, and warm, creating a calm and inviting atmosphere that helped my kids open up naturally. The results truly speak for themselves. The photos are amazing--beautifully lit, thoughtfully composed, and full of genuine smiles and sweet moments. I was honestly surprised at how much joy and personality they were able to capture, especially considering how reserved my children can be. These pictures are more than just holiday keepsakes--they're treasured memories of a truly special moment. I can't recommend Cece enough. If you're looking for someone who knows how to work magic with a camera and with children, this is the person to book. Thank you again for everything!

He's a total original, and each time I look at my photos, I am grateful we had such a talented photographer at our wedding!

Unlike other photographer who charges you a lot and gives you selected 20-50 picutes, Djamel gave me all the great shots he took (about 138). He spent lot of his time on texting and giving his insights on a week long shopping I did for the photoshoot. The picutres are so beautiful that touches my heart. He went beyond his professional responsibilities and bought bunch of dresses and accessories for my finace and bunch of jackets for me when we failed to buy great stuff. He went back and returned once those were not used on his own. I mean who does that without charging? He did it because he wanted the picture to turn out great. He cares for the outcome of his work. I am super picky and I found him after vigorous online research. Look nowhere else if you need a professional photographer for your events.
