Caroline was amazing. My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Caroline as our wedding…read morephotographer. When we got married I would have loved to have had a tiny country wedding, but family obligations on my husband's side had us locked into a very large affair. Caroline helped us create and capture the intimate moments I was longing for. She worked with us every step of the way to create a photography package that fit our budget and included exactly what we were looking for and none of the extras a lot of the other companies we spoke with tried to slide in. A wedding day is full of adventures and unknowns, but there was never a moment where I had a single second of anxiety about Caroline and I'm proud to have her work in my home (and would be even if it wasn't our wedding photos). In fact - our venue was so impressed by her they asked if they could display the pictures she took of our wedding in their advertising for their wedding packages. She is simply a joy on all levels. A true professional who is looking to give you the once in a lifetime experience you deserve.

I have to relay my experience at butler studios. Some background, I am a single mother, a nurse,…read moreand I have two rescue dogs. I live paycheck to paycheck and I do not ever treat myself to luxury experiences or expensive items, simply because I do not have the money to do so. I won the promotion for fur baby portraits on instagram and the next day I was contacted by a representative at butler studios. There had been a cancellation on saturday and I was able to get in the same week. Early on Saturday morning I packed up my dogs (a three legged a pitbull and a half blind half dead chihuahua) and my 16 year old daughter and we drove the three hours to Tidewater Virginia. The minute we parked at the waterfront I knew that this was a very elegant place. As we stepped into the building, I was confronted with large oil portraits of different people, children, weddings, graduation, and pets. An associate brought us to a a small waiting room and handed us a leather-bound waiver portfolio that said welcome (last name) family. I have never done a professional photograph before so I was not sure what to expect. Zach the photographer later brought us back and he was incredibly personable, professional, and really good with dogs. He probably took about 50 pictures of different combinations/poses of the four of us. We were then directed to make ourselves comfortable in the building. We sat in the parlor with the floor to ceiling windows looking out of the window while a player piano softly played music. Then we were brought back to a private viewer area where another associate showed us the pictures with a projector on the wall. They turned out SO excellent! The woman who had brought us into the viewing room proceeded to give us a rundown of different options of a portrait being printed. We politely listened and then I told her that I didn't have any extra money to spend on a $5000 dollar oil painting or even a $200 printed canvas. She expressed understanding and let us know that we had an 8 by 10 complimentary coming toys i a. few weeks and that we could choose the photo that we liked the most. I cannot express how special this place made me feel and I would highly recommend it for anyone doing wedding portraits or doing special occasion portraits, and I will probably use them in the future if my daughter ever gets married. Five stars, top of the line, check it out!

In comes Melanie, who I happened to find by accident through a Yelp promo email. She had another shoot earlier in the day, but bc we were doing a later beach elopement ceremony and reception, she could do it! Signing the contract and working out all the details online and via email was easy. She sent me some paperwork to give her details and then we had a phone conversation to discuss and get to know one another. On the day of - she texted me, showed up exactly on time, and was a dream to work with. So friendly, so kind, so helpful. She went above and beyond for me and my family and was so easygoing. She posed us wonderfully and rolled with the punches when a few things didn't go as planned (it's a wedding, it's going to happen!). Absolutely professional. The photos we've been given so far as a preview are stunning and I can't wait to see the others. Everyone raved about how kind she was and how much they liked our photographer afterwards, and when we've sent a few photos, they've all been blown away. I feel lucky to have found Melanie, and her husband Chris, to shoot my day and would recommend her to anyone who asked me for any photos. If we need family portraits or special pics taken in the future, she's our girl!

My kids absolutely ADORED her and my 3.5 year old son remembers her as the lady who loved his dinosaur toys. I booked our fall pictures with her on my birthday for our second photography session with her! Those pictures are soooo good and my kids were so uncooperative! Melanie also was absolutely amazing with my kids that day too! I booked my daughters first birthday pictures and cake smash with her in June! I'm so excited for those pictures because I just know how absolutely beautiful they are going to be!!! Definitely book a photography session with her! It's very worth your money And she's such an amazing photographer and a sweet person!

Our 19-year-old is graduating this year, and we decided to do a few family photos, as well. We chose a scenic local park for the backdrop for our pictures. Rueben was laid back and easy going. As candid shots work best for our family, we gave him free reign to utilize his artistic skills and click away as he saw creative opportunities. Our boys took to Rueben immediately and loved the camera. Talk about photo bombing! Rueben got some great shots of both boys, our whole family, and even a few of just my husband and me. His turn around time for the pictures was SPEEDY! The photos were phenomenal; Rueben has a good eye. Although a handful of our pictures were posed, he was able to capture moments of interaction, emotion, and personality. Thanks so much, Rueben! #highlyrecommend #value #cherishedmoments
