We booked a photography session for our twin boys with Michael Kronos Photography, and it was…read morehands-down one of the best experiences we've ever had. From start to finish, everything was organized to perfection. Weeks before the session, we received an incredibly thoughtful email with every detail we need--outfit suggestions, what to expect, and even questions about what our boys love so they could personalize the experience. That level of care and communication already set them apart. On the day of the shoot, everything was seamless. We were warmly greeted by Sophie, who is truly one of the most wonderful photographers we've ever worked with. She immediately helped us settle in and made the boys feel comfortable from the first moment. They had a little setup for the kids with small toys, treats, and water--simple touches that made a huge difference. The session lasted about 30 minutes, and we were amazed by how many beautiful photos we received. Even more surprising was how much our boys enjoyed the experience; they jumped right in with ideas for poses and stayed fully engaged the whole time. We've never seen them warm up to a new activity that quickly, and that speaks volumes about Sophie and the entire team. The proof gallery was delivered quickly, and within a week, we had our final edited images, which were absolutely stunning. We truly cannot recommend Michael Kronos Photography enough. Their professionalism, warmth, creativity, and incredible attention to detail make them the best of the best in NYC. We left extremely happy and will definitely be returning for future sessions!

Very highly recommend…read more Excellent experience. I am very excited and happy with the results. I needed to update professional headshots and got the package with makeup (well-worth it and a must-have I think) with Janelle as the make-up artist and Samantha as the photographer- a superstar team. Samantha was excellent, experienced, fast, and knew exactly what would look good on camera and captured everything I could ask for. Janelle did amazing makeup and was exceptional, making me feel very comfortable and listening closely to what I was hoping for and helped a lot with optimal styling of hair, makeup, etc. This is my third time to return to City Headshots...with the first two times working with Martin about 10 years ago. They have been really excellent all three times, and I would definitely go back again. The booking process and early communications are automated and streamlined. The experience in person is very tailored and personalized and the studio space in Midtown is easy to get to and has a nice comfortable waiting room. I feel like the photos really captured my authentic sense of self in a way that was both elevated and natural. So appreciative. I would return again without hesitation. Thank you!

I wish I could give more than 5 stars for these amazing artists!…read more I was initially a bit hesitant about whether it would be worth it to spend the time and money to take maternity portraits; a dear friend encouraged me to take the leap, and I am so so glad I decided to and even more delighted that I found Glow Portraits. If you are considering it and can budget for it, let me be the one to encourage you to DO IT. Thank me later :) Communication was superb. Sophie responds very quickly to questions via phone and email from before booking to session prep to post shoot follow up. Anabella, our photographer, was incredible. She made the experience a complete pleasure, and gave very precise directions that made for simply stunning shots. I often feel a bit awkward on camera, but somehow she got both me and my love posing like pros. The makeup artist also did a truly beautiful job. The proofs and finished images are beyond gorgeous. It was so tough to choose our favorites (we ended up buying some extra images because there were too many we loved). If you're looking at the galleries on their site (like I was) and wondering whether your images can possibly come out as ethereal and magical, the answer is YES. 6/5 stars for the amazing team at Glow Portraits. Thank you for everything!!!

WOW, what an incredible experience from start to finish…read more I booked a maternity session, but unfortunately, my daughter arrived two months early and I had to cancel it. I was heartbroken -- not just because I missed the chance to document my pregnancy, but because everything felt so overwhelming at the time. But what truly blew me away was the kindness and care Sophie showed. She continued to check in on me and my baby as time went on including throughout our NICU journey. A year later, I reached back out to book a baby session -- and it turned out to be even more special. Not only did I finally get the experience and memories that I'd dreamed of, but I got to share it with my daughter who is now healthy, thriving, and full of life. The final photos are absolutely breathtaking, and I will be forever grateful to Sophie and the team at glow portraits for turning such a difficult chapter in my life into beautiful memories that we can cherish forever.

The service was great, they warned me when time was almost up and helped me with some props. Also printed 3 photos for me which i loved. I will def be back and recommending it to friends.

Her fun, upbeat personality to keeping the pace lively as she made sure we and our son were comfortable throughout the whole process made the four hours we spent in her apartment fly by as we chatted like old friends. She never broke her rhythm of keeping our son cozy and us entertained with coffee and her large screen TV in her living room where she works out of. The end product? Breathtaking! Everyone is biased with seeing pictures of their own kids, but I have never heard so many compliments over photos--and rightfully so--they are amazing! I'd also highly recommend getting the metal portraits that hang on the wall; they are everything she said they'd be--light, easy to clean and no worries about tearing the canvas when you have to move them. My husband and our extended family are so happy with what Emily did, I'd recommend her to anyone with a 1000% guarantee. I'm so glad we will have these pictures to treasure for the rest of our lives! .
