We combined her services with a luxury picnic. Our mini-session was about 15 minutes long, and she provided simple guidance, rapidly capturing photos of my family.

In all my interactions with her, you can tell she takes great personal pride in her profession and is keen in running a tight ship with the services she provides. I was slow in my part of the process, and Alicia kept regular contact with me to ensure I was satisfied with the photos at every step of the way. She will never drag her clients out on an extended timeline - she's on top of everything. I would totally book her again for more photos in the future.

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.
