I moved to Chicago at the end of last year, and this is my first pregnancy. At first, I wasn't sure…read moreif I wanted to do a maternity photoshoot. It felt out of my comfort zone, something I had never done before. But after hearing from friends that I might regret not capturing this moment, I decided to start searching for a photographer. I came across many different artists online, but Sri's portfolio immediately stood out. His photography style is artistic, natural, and unique--nothing felt overly posed or awkward. I was already approaching my third trimester, so time was limited. Thankfully, Sri responded quickly and guided me through the entire process. He explained what to bring, what to expect, and assured me that most of the wardrobe and accessories would be available at the studio. We scheduled the shoot two weeks later with Sri and his talented makeup artist, Laura. When I arrived, I was nervous and unsure, but those feelings quickly disappeared. Both Sri and Laura made me feel completely at ease. Laura styled my hair into soft waves and gave my skin a beautiful, radiant glow, while Sri patiently walked me through the session step-by-step. Sri has an incredible eye for detail and a clear passion for his craft. He was attentive, energetic, and never rushed the process. Even when I needed time to find the right pose, he remained patient and encouraging, always focused on capturing the perfect shot. The final photos exceeded all my expectations--they are stunning and filled with emotion. I'm so grateful I stepped out of my comfort zone and trusted Sri with this experience. He even made sure I had a beautifully edited photo ready in time for my baby shower just one week later. This photoshoot has become one of the most meaningful memories of my pregnancy, and I wholeheartedly recommend Sri to anyone looking for a photographer. He not only incredibly talented but also kind, professional, and deeply passionate about what he does.

She hadn't planned on doing a shoot for herself and I wanted to make sure she had something beautiful to look back on to remember the moment. It was important to find someone who would make her feel comfortable while also delivering truly stunning maternity pictures-- and Sri exceeded all expectations. From my first call with him, Sri was warm, professional, and incredibly straightforward about pricing, deliverables, and the entire process. He made everything seamless, even arranging hair and makeup. When I introduced Sri to my sister, he was just as kind and reassuring, which instantly put her at ease. The maternity photo shoot itself was an amazing experience. Sri's studio is in a great location and offers the privacy that was important for my sister to feel relaxed. Throughout the session, Sri brought great energy and took the time to understand how my sister wanted to see herself in the photos. His expertise in artistic photography really came through-- his use of light is masterful, creating simple yet powerful images that perfectly capture this special moment. I found Sri by searching online for photographers in Chicago, and I'm so grateful I did. If you're looking for a talented, professional, and thoughtful Chicago maternity photographer, Sri is the one to book!

My husband and I were looking for a natural light photographer to take maternity pictures. I did a lot of online research and stumbled upon Byrdhouse Photography. After falling in love with the artistic and classy photos on the website I called and set up and appointment with Becky, the photographer for Byrdhouse. The photo shoot in one word was AMAZING. Becky was a true professional. She arrived on time, came with ideas, props, and most importantly, her skill. The photos were utterly gorgeous. We got the photos in a viewing gallery in no time. Once we ordered the photos we received them within the week. Not a detail of the photography, pictures, or service was overlooked. We loved the experience and the product so much that we had Becky come back and do our newborn pictures. They were gorgeous. We are already planning on having her do more photography for us in the future!

I even sent her pictures so she could know what I was looking for my sons special first photo shoot. But instead I got a dark barn wood I told her I did not want. I was surprised to see it when we arrived for the shoot. I hated it but I was afraid to tell her since she was already set up, I only had half an hour, my son was getting impatient and I felt very rushed. The photos turned out as we thought--odd. Our son smiled in all of them so we at least have that, but we were extremely disappointed. I had one simple request--a white background. I don't know why she would not use it if I requested it and she had it. She knew I did not want the dark barn wood. Theres $300 down the drain. But worse, we can't get this memory back.
