Highly recommend Still Shots to anyone wanting family photos they will truly treasure. I was genuinely amazed by our gallery. We had a 30 minute session with our toddler, who sat still for maybe 35 seconds total, and somehow she still managed to capture absolute magic. She was so patient, calm, and easygoing through the chaos, and the photos feel incredibly natural, beautiful, and full of emotion. read more

We've had two photoshoots with Amanda, and both experiences have been wonderful! She is patient, professional, and incredibly responsive. The photos from both sessions turned out beautiful, and we couldn't be happier with how she captures our family and all of the special moments. She also has such a quick turnaround time, which we really appreciate! We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again! read more

Still Shots - Session Photography Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Amanda nailed it with my most recent lifestyle newborn session! I love how our photos turned out, so natural and capturing the motherhood essence especially with a toddler in tow who often takes a while to warm up to the camera, and strangers. She offers a variety of packages and studio options which was exactly what I was looking for since I felt my home didn't meet the aesthetics/lighting I was looking for. Pricing was so fair and affordable too which I really appreciated. She is a very talented photographer and a great artistic director, helping my family get the best photos and even going above and beyond in asking if there were any specific poses I would like to capture. Would 10/10 use her again for photos in the future. read more

So happy we decided to have Amanda shoot our son's 6 month photos at the studio! It was our first ever studio shoot and Amanda gave us some ideas of what to bring/color schemes to go with the studio decor beforehand. Amanda took pictures at our baby sprinkle last summer so it was fun having her get to meet him earth side. She got such amazing photos of our son and got him to smile (which isn't an easy task). The natural lighting in the studio is so nice for photos. She got our photos back to us in less than a week so that we could have them on his actual birthday. We will cherish these forever.

I had such a great experience with Amanda! I found her on Instagram, and she immediately responded when I asked about a quote for family maternity and newborn pictures. She offered packages and locations that made it so easy, especially since I am a very pregnant mom with a 3 year old, I love that I didn't feel I had to put time and research into the shoots, she took care of it. My maternity pictures turned out beautiful! Exactly what I wanted! She is so easy to work with, I'm so thankful I found her. I can't wait for her to shoot our newborn photos in the coming weeks! read more

I couldn't have asked for a better photographer, and one I can't wait to use for future family milestones! When it was time for my fiancé and I to start researching photographers we were super overwhelmed at first. I found Amanda on Instagram and immediately she sent a DM introducing herself after I followed her account. I never forgot her warm and friendly introduction. When I finally decided to inquiry she was very quick to respond and answered all my questions. I get very nervous reaching out to vendors but she made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire planning process. My fiancé and I wanted to take our engagement photos at Crystal Cove which requires a permit, she did not hesitate to work on filling out the permit and working on the details to ensure we just had to show up. When the day came, I was a bit nervous as there was no proper sunset due to overcast. However Amanda is very skilled and we still ended up with gorgeous photos. We laughed the entire time and it was so much fun. Her turn around time is quick and I got my sneak peeks that same night and the rest of the photos in less than a week! I love that she does a variety of shoots, I can't wait to use her for our future family and newborn shoots when that time comes for us. read more

Amazing photography. She is awesome at helping you feel comfortable in front of the camera and catching the best shots. The pictures turned out lovely- she captured our little moments in every shot. Highly recommend! read more

Amanda is amazing!! She took our newborn pictures and our family pictures this year. I have never worked with a photographer that knew how to work the camera so well in different lightings and angles! She is sooo knowledgeable and she also knows how to get us into the perfect poses for the best pictures. Coming from someone that's not very photogenic, it's a huge help when she can get me into the right position and then I end up loving the pictures after! She is also very fast with her turn around time. She got us sneak peaks within the same night and all of our pictures in less than 24 hours! After we picked from the raw pictures, she edited them in less than a few days!! I cannot recommend her enough, I cannot wait to continue capturing our beautiful life milestones with her! read more

I had the best experience working with Still Shots. She did my in studio maternity photoshoot and then just recently did my extended family photoshoot (15 people!) The pictures for both turned out incredible. And she got them back to us in a timely manner. Her pricing is very fair and she is so responsive and helpful. For the extended family shoot she even helped us come up with a location (which we loved). On the day of the shoot she was on time and shot pix for the whole hour. She helped place everyone in the group which was a big deal so we didn't just have a photo with everyone in a boring line. And then she did a variety of mix and matched family. She is very experienced and knew exactly which locations would give us the best lighting. We will cherish these pix forever and I am so thankful we had Amanda to capture them. read more

The photos turned out beautiful and we appreciated her edits to make sure things looked perfect. She was a pleasure to work with and we would definitely recommend her to any families wanting to capture memories! read more
