He is incredibly friendly, patient, and truly dedicated to getting the perfect shot. You can tell he takes pride in his craft. Steven has a calm, relaxing presence that makes being in front of the camera feel natural instead of intimidating. He chats with you throughout the session so your photos come out genuine and effortless, not stiff or overly posed. His equipment is top-quality, and the results absolutely show it. Hands down one of the best photographers I've ever worked with. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for stunning, professional photos and an amazing overall experience.

However, since he lives thousands of miles away, I can't really rely on him too much. When he recommended Xenia, I knew that she was excellent. Xenia is highly professional, extremely personable, very creative, and the most important thing - she listens to the customer's needs and wishes and then goes above and beyond to fulfill them. Xenia worked tirelessly for a 3 day event and produced absolutely amazing images. It's challenging to make a conference look exciting in the photos and yet she managed to do just that. My only wish is that she was closer to SF Bay Area!!! I'd have her do all of our organization's and personal photos!

TLDR: If you are here trying to figure out whether to book Melissa as your photographer, DO IT NOW…read more Photographs are one of the most important pieces to capturing and remembering memories from a day, event, or a moment. The power a well-taken photo has to bring back nostalgia or invoke a set of emotions cannot be overstated. That being said, Melissa has a wonderful eye for capturing the special moments that showcase the moment and event. We booked Melissa as our engagement photo and wedding photographer for our small COVID mini-elopement. We wanted to find someone that didn't have photos that were too posed or staged as we ourselves don't take many photos to begin with. We wanted more candid shots that still made us look good and captured the essence of our relationship. Suffice to say out of the almost 100 photos we received from our engagement shoot and the 200+ photos from our mini-elopement, I am still having a hard time picking my favorites! Melissa is extremely friendly and personable, but still maintains a high level of professionalism. She is efficient and organized, and very communicative with scheduling, payments, and the vision for the event. Anyone who has planned a wedding knows how chaotic it can be. Having someone like Melissa who communicates well and plans to make sure the photographs go without a hitch is a HUGE positive. Melissa was always early to the events, and scouted out places for photographs ahead of our shoot. She had her speaker and played music while giving us a few prompts here and there. Instead of feeling stressed about how the photos would turn out, we were able to have fun and be ourselves. This definitely showed in the photos as we looked relaxed, happy, and most of all you could see our relationship through the photos she captured. Turn around times for photos were VERY fast, and pricing is reasonable for the time, effort, and quality she puts in. Needless to say, if we have any more events we have found our official photographer (and food-venturing buddy). If you are still reading this review and haven't booked her yet, what are you waiting for?! Thanks to Melissa for the gorgeous photos, fun memories, and unbeatable experience!

It was clear they cared deeply about the photos and were genuinely invested in making each moment perfect--I never felt like just another client.

I am very type-A so I really appreciated the level of responsiveness and accommodation that Alex provided. She was very prompt with her email, I was able to discuss ideas I had months in advance, outfit options, and even shared my Pinterest board with her so she was very aware of what I was looking for and delivered just that! She also accommodated an outfit change and multiple locations. She spent just over two hours with us and did not rush through the photos at all, even offering suggestions or taking extra time to put us in certain poses or locations that would allow her a good shot. Our photos - digital and film style! - were delivered to us within two weeks and we were really happy with the results. She is clearly a talent and very good at what she does. During the shoot, she was so easy to work with and encouraging - always offering her honest opinion and making us feel happy and relaxed throughout. And if you can believe...she did all of that and delivered this level of service while being nine-months pregnant! I wouldn't hesitate to hire Alex again for any of our family shoots in the future! High quality photography and equal level of service! Thanks again, Alex!

From a photographers standpoint she had a great eye for detail. Looked at creating fun angles and spaces to really maximize our small front yard area. Plus! She went the extra mile and brought a few balloons and a sign to complement our little setup. She really went above and beyond! The photos all came out amazing.
