Dana was prefect for our newborn shoot. I would like to outline my experience with her:
-This was my first experience having a family and newborn shoot. I spoke with several photographers in order to pick the one that would suit my family the best. We spoke first over email to discuss what I am looking for in a photo shoot: look, pricing, timing, etc. I was clear in what I was looking for and she was concise on what she could deliver. (Her website is a true representation of her work, its exactly the type of work I received.) Because it was a newborn she booked several dates for us, just in case our daughter came early! She also gave us a document with helpful hints of a shoot. (I totally needed this) All emails were answered within 24 hours.
- She arrived on time and with everything needed in toe. It was absolutely amazing even props, different blankets and bows, and even had soothing music on for the baby! Dana booked two hours, and I was thinking 'no way will we need that time.' Well of course with two children, we needed that time and we used it. She never seemed in a rush, and she was so patience with the kids and was able to keep them calm throughout the day.
- Dana got my photos back to me within two weeks. I picked out some of them for announcements and she designed them, and had them to me within three days of finalizing them! She was able to show me some photos in different lights, black and white, etc. It never seemed like I was hassling her for her time. I am extremely happy with the quality.
I picked Dana based on a few attributes I was looking for. She could capture 'moments.' With two littles, this was so important to me. I didn't want the photos to all feel posed. She was snapping photos when I wasn't thinking she would, and those shots are some of my favorites! Also, she is very prompt. With responding to questions and getting photos back when she stated they would be done. We really could not have been happier and had a more enjoyable experience with Dana. I would recommend her to everyone. If you are looking for a newborn session, book it with Dana! read more
