The…read morecommunication between the photographer and us was mediocre and the photos themselves took almost 3 months to get which felt like an insane amount of time for some pictures. I had to keep asking for them and eventually got a link to the photos with no apology or explanation what took so long (contract says they will be ready in 14 days- this was definitely not my experience).

Planning to ask a woman to spend the rest of her life with you isn't simple. Planning it from over…read more4,000 miles away has its own set of challenges. After successfully using the internet to find about a dozen photographers (no hits, all misses) in the Anchorage area, I knew I needed more direction. Finding Lauren Roberts (the brains, talent, and amazingness behind Beauty Board Media) was the answer to my questions. Even while on a work-trip outside of Alaska, Lauren fielded my call and took some time to sit in a quiet place and chat with me about what exactly I was looking to do. I wanted my proposal to my girlfriend to be caught on camera so we could share that special moment with our friends and family all over the world. No big deal. Lauren and I spoke for days before she even started talking about the cost of this cross-country production I was planning. A couple from Texas celebrating the 4th of July in Anchorage with a proposal under the fireworks at a small college summer league baseball game. She was almost as excited about this as I was! The words "swoon" and "romantic" were thrown around excessively. Lauren promises, Lauren delivers. She brought along a second shooter to catch the moment in photos while she masterfully shot our video. At the time of writing this review the video has not yet been completed; we asked Lauren to take extra time and provided her recently with some other home video "gems" to work with. Like I said, her promise of a keepsake production cannot be ignored. It's amazing what Beauty Board Media has done for past clients (check out the website) and what she's done for Priscilla and me. The photos are outrageous. We can't stop looking at them. A few are being printed and framed once we decide which of them we like more than the others. It's a difficult task when each picture is a masterpiece. Our friends and family love the pictures. Our only regret is that Lauren is in Alaska and we're in Texas! We can't thank her enough. Her talent and passion captured our engagement; something no amount of money could recreate or duplicate. And now we have a way to revisit it forever. If you have any questions just message me. I'll always be a fan.

Amanda made time for me in her busy schedule to do so. Normally I'm an anxious girly but she made me feel so comfortable and had so many photos from our engagement photos to pick from! Like I mean a work of ART! I can't say it enough she's super worth it! She's easy to work with! She makes me feel super comfortable and confident even though I'm always anxious lol. Since I booked her as my wedding photographer, she met up with me to go over the important moments and things I wanted captured for our upcoming wedding. Let me tell you she was super insightful and really listened to me and what I wanted. If you're booking with a photographer hands down she's perfect! 10/10 would recommend.

When we decided to get married we knew it would have to be in downtown Anchorage, you know we had…read moreto pay homage to where we met, so I wanted a photographer who loved downtown as much as we did. Sonja is amazing! I cannot stop gushing over her dedication to her clients or the beautiful quality of photos we received. In our first meeting with Sonja we clicked. She is such a bright and vibrant soul. Her passion for her work, clients and downtown Anchorage can't be matched. Our wedding was Memorial Day weekend 2018 and Sonja provided us with a phenomenal service. She is so down to earth, so easy to work with and has the patience of an saint because I know we were annoying lol! Her packages are reasonably priced and she was super flexible working with our budget and customizing our photo package to our needs. Her style is very editorial, clean and classic. I have been so happy with the photos I've received so far. She now offers her photo studio to brides, which can be added on to your packages. YOU MUST RENT HER STUDIO FOR YOUR GETTING READY PHOTOS!! It's much nicer than a hotel, she has a gorgeous vanity set up, it's very roomy, styles well with great furniture but most importantly is has the most beautiful abundance of natural light. Which makes for amazing photos, but even better selfies. I'm so glad I chose this add on over getting a hotel room downtown. First of all it's cheaper than getting a hotel room because it has more than enough space for 12+ people; the space is divided. I got ready in the back room and my groom showed up later and got ready in the front room. It was perfect in every aspect. I cannot thank Sonja and her husband enough for the amazing experience they provided us on our wedding day. She also does amazing boudoir and senior photos too!

She told me about her website so I went online and looked around. I purchased a couple of her calanders for Christmas gifts which I recieved right on time and my family loves. I wish we lived closer to do a portrait session but we'll be booking one the next time we're in the area. I saw her invitations and hair ornments but the ideas I had for our wedding weren't on her site. I asked her what she'd suggest because our wedding was a very untraditional destination wedding. She went above and beyond my expectations working with me to create our wedding invitations and bridesmaids' hair ornments to make sure they were just as one of a kind as our wedding was. She's communicated every step of the way to make sure my order would be perfect and sent to me in plenty of time. She's very courteous and was quick to respond to my questions. She made me feel very valued and that my opinions truly mattered to her. Her prices are very reasonable and I will definitly be a repeat buyer and highly reccomend purchasing her one of a kind made in the USA items
