Valeria is very experienced with City Hall - she knew all of the best photo spots, guided us through everything efficiently, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. We really appreciated the direction she gave us with posing while still keeping everything feeling natural and relaxed. Most importantly, the photos were absolutely beautiful and exactly what we were hoping for. We are so happy with how they turned out! Valeria was professional, warm, experienced, and incredibly talented, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

I anticipated it could be challenging to do pictures with a toddler but boy it was even harder than I thought lol. Our toddler gets shy sometimes, but Valeria was so gentle with her, at the end of the session, our toddler even gave Valeria a random leaf, it means "I like you" in toddler language. Everyone in my family commented how kind and professional Valeria was. The pictures also turned out beautiful, she was able to capture those beautiful moments when my toddler was smiling and laughing. I totally recommend Valeria as your photographer.

My family and I just finished up a family/sibling/newborn session with Lori, and without even…read morehaving seen the photos yet, the experience alone was amazing! Lori has such a fun, friendly, and upbeat personality, which greeted us upon entrance to her adorable studio. She even had our newborn baby's name written on the sign outside to welcome us, which I regrettably forgot to take a picture of. :( We knew to plan for about a three hour session, as all of the information we needed to prepare was sent by Lori via email as well as conveniently available on her website. Lori was so patient and really took her time in order to get the best shots- immediately recommending that the baby be fed so she would be sleepy for photos. Watching Lori at work was inspiring- so meticulous in her posing of the family and baby, making sure that every last hair was in place and every little detail was captured. She was also great about ensuring adequate time for diaper changes and nursing, understanding that these elements are critical in the ability to capture a beautiful photograph. I'm beyond excited to see the final resulting images, and overall extremely happy with our decision to work with Lori in capturing such a precious time in our lives- the welcoming of our newborn daughter. It's no wonder that she was voted Pleasanton's Best Photographer for two years in a row! She is deserving of both awards and so much more! Thank you, Lori!

This review has been a long time coming. Lori is phenomenal! She captured my wedding in June of…read morethis year and I was so grateful to have found her through my venue's list of preferred vendors. She was shocked that I hired her having only looked at her portfolio, but I knew from the photos she had of another wedding at my venue that she would do a great job. And after our initial conversation I knew she would be perfect! She's a professional through and through. I appreciate her working with my husband who is camera shy and managing to document beautiful moments with our chaotic (but sweet) families. I know we made her nervous because we were pretty laid back and I am so appreciative she kindly made us take certain photos even though we said they were not important. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

We reached out to Dani when our baby girl was 12 days old and she was able to squeeze us in 4 days later! She was very flexible in the scheduling process, which we very much appreciated being brand new first time parents. She was also very professional and her studio had everything we could need! From all the props, swaddles, costumes, baby accessories ... to a changing table and extra diapers in the restroom for baby! Her photographs were also beyond what I could have expected. She even made me look refreshed despite how I was feeling at the time, having had very little sleep. Overall, would highly recommend!! We will for sure be returning for our girl's future milestone sessions! Thank you, Dani!

I definitely recommend coming to Dani for your baby photos and family photos!…read more When it came to booking these photo shoots she was very quick to respond. Prices vary on the photo shoot that you would like and all of her prices are posted right on her website. I love the transparency! So far I have done my maternity shoot, my baby's new born, and my baby's 1 year photo shoot! Dani is patient and kind which is definitely helpful when working with little one! She has plenty of wraps and baby outfits to choose from. She has her own studio in downtown Nile's but is also willing to shoot outdoors which is nice. Her style of photography is definitely what drew me to her and I wasn't let down.

I was looking for a photographer in the Brentwood area as a graduation gift for my niece. She was…read moregraduating high school, and I wanted to make this moment extra special for her. I came across Kree's Yelp page because of how close she was, but what really stood out was her website--the caliber and vibrancy of her photos were incredible. I knew right away she'd be a perfect fit for capturing my niece, both in her cap and gown and in her super colorful prom dress (which I was confident Kree could do justice!). From the moment I reached out, Kree was super responsive and easy to communicate with. The contract was simple and straightforward, pricing was fair and the breakdown of her packages were awesome. and she helped us agree on a time and location that worked perfectly, not far from our house either, which was a huge plus. On the day of the shoot, Kree arrived right on time and immediately made my niece feel comfortable. Since it was my niece's first time being professionally photographed, I appreciated how Kree guided her with poses and gave her direction to bring out her best angles. She was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience fun. We received the edited photos about two weeks later, and they were amazing, better than I could have imagined. Kree truly captured my niece's personality and the significance of the moment. Highlights for me: super responsive communication, an easy-to-understand contract, a convenient location, her friendly demeanor, and of course, the beautiful final photos. Thanks so much Kree!!!

Radhika is probably the best wedding/event photographer in the Bay Area we have come across. Her…read moreartistic sense of capturing delicate and memorable moments is excellent and she has a keen sense of composition which makes the pictures come to life. Radhika started working with us 4 months before our wedding day and took everything that we wanted from our wedding photos into consideration. She was thorough with the location and time of the day of every event and planned in advance for which poses and captures would work. Her punctuality, dedication and flexibility to take the perfect picture is commendable and she wouldn't hesitate to roll on the grass or climb a tree/roof to capture your precious moment. We shot with Radhika for three days straight and she made us comfortable in front of the camera from the first moment to the last. She not only made us comfortable but also our guests comfortable which resulted in beautiful candid moments throughout the events. Radhika delivered the final images and slideshows very quickly as well with keen editing to enhance the images beautifully. It was our immense pleasure to have our wedding shot by Radhika and would recommend her to everyone who want their special memories captured with love and care.

We came across Radhika's page randomly and instantly loved her work. After our first conversation,…read morewe clicked with her right away--she made us feel super comfortable and had so many fun, creative ideas for the shoot. She was involved in even the tiniest details, from choosing themes and coordinating outfits to helping me pick my nail color, which honestly made me feel like I could completely trust her. She even spent an entire day on calls with us while we were shopping and sent over links for things we might need. We told her we wanted a natural, candid shoot--nothing too posed or cliché--and she totally got it. She found some beautiful fall-themed spots and captured exactly the vibe we were going for. On the day of the shoot, she made sure we felt relaxed and comfortable the whole time. Radhika truly goes above and beyond, and her passion for what she does really shows. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Our pictures turned out amazing! We have since purchased the First Year Reflections Package for our daughter and have had the newborn shots taken so far. My daughter was not cooperative, but Cheryl was accommodating, patient, and creative (with tons of cute props and outfits). We got some wonderful memories and pictures to share with friends and family. Cheryl is the perfect blend of perfessionalism and personality! She's sassy and patient. I am a picky customer and I was pleased with all aspects of the process. Cheryl was open to using pose ideas I had pinned on Pinterest as well as her own, based on my taste and style. When you leave the session, you feel like you've spent the afternoon hanging out with a friend. Her photographs are great quality! She is familiar with the Bay Area and has some great locations for whatever your style may be. She captures the light perfectly and spends quality time editing for a fantastic final image. The prints--except for the wallets--are a classy linen finish (they look and feel like canvas!). I will continue to book Cheryl for all my future family photography. And I am happy to recommend her to anyone looking for a professional and personable photographer with a great artistic eye!
