We hired this photography for our daughter's birthday party in Chevy Chase, MD. It is unbelievable…read morethat the photographer just did not show up at our event. This website seems to be like a scam. We hired them online for our daughter's birthday. Their website asked us to pay fully in advance(!!) and sent a confirmation email for the payment and date of the event. Their photographer didn't show up at our event and they never called us back although we left them voicemail that we and our guests were waiting for the photographer. This is a very very bad look for MacroHype Photography, as every guest shockingly asked us the name of this company. We reversed our credit card payment easily but we also will review them on every single possible website and social media to let people know they need to avoid hiring this photographer(s) or have a back up photographer in case they don't show up. Very rude, unprofessional and irresponsible photography.

Anna was a delight to work with and made it very easy to schedule our newborn photo shoot, which…read morecan be challenging given that nobody really knows when baby will come and most say photos are best before baby hits 10 days old--at which time they can be more fussy and less sleepy. :) Scheduling and filling out the release and contract was easy--I was able to sign everything on my phone in advance--very convenient when you are recovering and don't want to get on a computer. When we arrived, Anna was all set up, the space was warmed, outfits we discussed and props were ready to go, and she met us with hand sanitizer and was double masked. Anna asked that we wait to feed baby until we arrived so we would have a big sleepy window. We did and she was patient for this, and the needed diaper change! We also learned that she is a doula and extremely experienced with babies in all aspects of her life. Once baby drifted to sleep, Anna began getting her changed and into different scenes quickly. We had only planned for 1-2 hours (to get baby home and back in bed--but I was also still tired and recovering) and in just shy of two hours we did seven different outfits/backgrounds. Overall, this was an excellent experience and we were also allowed to take photos while she took some--which I appreciated because I could give family a preview...and I can't stop swiping through them! Looking forward to receiving the gallery from Anna and to our next session with her!

We hired Anna Isaiko and Olena Nykytovych as a photographers for our wedding that took place on…read moreOctober 22nd. Unfortunately, my husband and I are very disappointed with a quality of their job. We paid for 5 hours of their work: ceremony at the church, and reception afterwards. The pictures from the church turned out to be okay - there are nice pictures of two of us and a pastor during the ceremony, however there is no good group pictures with families and friends after the ceremony. When we were posing together with families, photographers did not make any comments regarding the postures and how everyone looked - we ended to have zero photos were all people are (at least) looking in one camera. We thought that if they don't make any comments, then everything looks good. However it turned out to be the opposite.. We'd think that professional photographers would want to take the best shot they could, but unfortunately, not in this case. The reception was in beautiful barn at Clyde's Willow Creek in Ashburn. The lighting in the barn is intimate and warm, also there was a fire place. Absolutely ALL pictures from the reception are low quality, grainy, and out of focus. We were posing in front of the fire place with the guests who wanted pictures with the couple, and were planning on printing out these pictures and sending them along with the 'thank you' cards. However, the quality of these pictures ruined our plans. We had only 35 guests on our wedding, everyone who was there is valuable and important person to us. As any couple at their wedding day we wanted to capture the priceless moments in pictures and share them with our friends and family. However, the poor job of photographers ruined this. Instead of apologizing and trying to resolve this situation the photographers said that the lighting on the reception was dull and tried to blame our guests that they were complaining about the flash that photographers used (they had only one small flash with them). Also, they were taking video and made a short (2-minutes) one for us as a present and tried to sell us longer video for $900. We did not hire them to take videos, and it seems that they put more efforts in taking the video than the pictures and now trying to upsell us the long video to get more profit (on top of the price that we paid for 5 hours of their work). The topping in this situation is that after I tried to talk to Anna and send her texts I was blocked without any response. When my husband and I called her from a different number she replied but then hung up on us while we were still talking. This disrespectful and rude behavior shocked us! I never leave bad reviews, but in this situation I do not have another choice. We paid 100% upfront, were easy to work with, and got bad pictures and unacceptable customer service as a result. Please don't work with this photographer if you don't want low-quality event pictures, poor customer service, and if you don't like to be treated in absolutely disgraceful, disrespectful manner.

We felt like we got three individual family photoshoots with group pictures all in one session! Hassan was very professional and thoughtful of the light and how we looked throughout.

They just weren't like the other wedding photographers out there! Eric the owner from Modern Frames (such a cool guy) was so easy to work with! Unfortunately, he wasn't available for our wedding date but had a colleague he strongly recommended. We trusted him to set us up with Alex. Even though Alex would be shooting our wedding, Eric would still do the editing portion. So we agreed! We set up a few meetings with both Eric and Alex, and both are such laid back, chill and easy to work with guys. We immediately felt comfortable with them. The wedding day was great. It ended up being extra hot, humid and darker than the usual Spring day we've had in DC. But Alex made it work. He also kept a lot of us calm and comfortable during all the shoots. Alex stayed almost the entire day, even though the agreement was that he could leave earlier. But you could tell he really wanted to capture everything perfectly. All the wedding guests loved him as well! In the end, the photos came out great. BOTH Eric and Alex are very creative and truly skilled artists! We've decided we would continue to use Modern Frames in the future for any other needs we run into! STRONGLY recommend them!!!

Let me tell you, hiring them was one of the best decisions we made, and I would do it again in a heartbeat! Communication/Responsiveness: Eric wrote back to our initial email *ten minutes* after we sent it (!), confirming he and Alisa were free on our date and suggesting we schedule a Skype meeting. They were super responsive to all of our questions and concerns. They got our engagement photos back to us in less than 2 weeks, and our wedding photos in 3 weeks. Personality: Eric and Alisa are really nice people and a ton of fun to be around! They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and they were down for all of my crazy requests (like a giant group shot with every guest at the wedding). The Photos: SO GOOD. We wanted pictures that would capture the feel of the day, rather than looking like a magazine shoot, and that's exactly what we got. My aunt and uncle dancing, grinning ear to ear. My friend's two-year-old stealing the show in his tiny bow tie and suspenders. Us attempting to cut the cake and getting the knife stuck. All of the people we love in one place, smiling, dancing, talking, and having a great time - they captured it perfectly. (We also did formal portraits and family group shots, which turned out great as well.) I'm so glad we chose Eric and Alisa - the process of working with them was great, and the results were phenomenal. I highly recommend them.

He is…read moretruly a skilled photographer and takes time with his artistry to craft the perfect look for you. I've worked with several photographers in NYC and DC in the past, and usually, they will rush you, take a few shots, and deliver ho-hum photos. Not John though, and that's what sets him apart from others. The first headshot from several months ago is amazing and I still get compliments. I came back for the branding package for my website(s), and I'm thoroughly excited by the results. I just got them the photos today, and I could not wait to write a review. The professionalism, the quality, and artistry are impeccable. John is a specialist with lighting and gives you slight direction to get the right pose needed for your photo. The result is a photograph that stands the tests of time and stands out from the crowd. He is an artistic genius, funny, and pleasant to work with. A true superstar if you ask me. I couldn't be more pleased.

Houndstooth participated in a charity event with K-9 Lifesavers Dog Rescue several months ago by…read moreoffering free sitting to anyone attending the event with their dog(s). We took our two dogs (pre-dog 3 and dog 4) into the city for the first time to get some photographs taken of them since they are naturally the best looking dogs around. Bob-O and Bella were very distracted by the new scents, odd sounds, various people, and the cookie table caught Bella's eye the minute we walked in. Bob-O would have probably noticed it, too if he wasn't only two inches off the ground. There were two women helping with the photographs - one with a camera and one with a ball. They were both wonderful with the dogs, trying anything necessary to get them to focus long enough to hold still. They took many pictures while were there regardless of whether or not the kids were actually in position to be photographed. We were hoping that at least we'd get one or two good ones of them before leaving. While we started to feel ourselves getting a little frustrated at Bob-O's and Bella's inability to sit on the white paper rather than sitting every where else, the Houndstooth crew never showed a moment of irritation or frustration at trying to get the dogs to hold still for a few shots. Big plus for us. The pictures were adorable and well worth the trek into the city. We plan on getting pictures taken again once the Dog #4 is full grown - so we have the entire family together. The prices for the sitting are a little expensive - I'd rather pay more for pictures when ordering than pay an upfront fee for the sitting - but they are great at getting good shots. Plus, if you're a client of The Backyard Pack you get 10% off the sitting cost! Now that's a great deal.

Many of the photos were literally breath-taking and everyone who's seen them loves them. I'm having so much trouble deciding which ones to buy as prints since they're all amazing!

This was my very 3rd time doing a photo shoot, and I'm beyond grateful that I pushed myself to do it here. There was absolutely no judgment, and she gave clear guidance and direction while also making me feel comfortable enough to freestyle and be creative. There was no rushing at all, and a lot of time and care were spent making sure we captured the right shots. You can really tell that she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about her clients. I will definitely be coming back many times. The entire experience was so much fun, and even the unedited photos already looked amazing, so I can't even imagine how incredible the final images will be.

They truly look like something straight out of a magazine.
