This is a new price range according to her website, but what she sent me was 1/3 of that price.
Melody N.

Hi all, I was referred to Amber by my sister since she took beautiful pictures of my nieces couple years ago. So, I reached out to her to book for my maternity and newborn sessions. ( I saw her amazing work and fully trusted my sister) - so in my mind thought it would be a simple and smooth process and absolutely nothing to worry about. I reached out to her to see her availabilities and price range/ packages for maternity and newborn. She replied back vary nicely and provided detailed price range for each package. I picked the package I wanted and she told me she will be setting up a quick talk over the phone to know each other and coming up with date for maternity photography. (I attached a picture to prove that) She then rescheduled twice and when I reached out to her she was ignoring me. I went ahead and checked out her page again and saw she Triple the price for maternity packages. (Are you seriously!! I couldn't believe it- that's why she never replied back to me) I do have pictures to prove that !!!!! Then, again I contacted her but she never got back to me since she jumped the price. As I mentioned, she was referred to me by my own sister and took pictures of my nieces but I can't believe she done that. She raised the price as soon as I talked to her. (She could have said the price are raising or here is a new price range rather than ignoring a customer) I ended up taking my maternity pictures with someone else who I truly honest. Ladies and gentlemen please look around before booking with her and have writing prove of her words. Wish you all the best

We had an absolutely amazing experience. The selection of clothing and styles was just perfect for my maternity shoot. Ambers professionalism and kind etiquette made me feel right at ease the entire time!

Amber is such a talented photographer. We brought our toddler in for a holiday mini session and I was stressed that we wouldn't get any good shots since her attention span is so short and she moves so fast. Amber was able to get so many beautiful shots in like ten minutes I was AMAZED. Definitely want to come back for my next maternity sessions and next newborn when we have another child. I only wish I had found her sooner!

Amber won us over with this image from our first mini session.

So... after my maternity/newborn photographer went on hiatus, I was on a mission to find a new photographer for my daugher's 1 year photos. I wish I could say I found Amber right away... it took a year and a half until our paths crossed. We were at Back Bay one afternoon with our daughter when I saw the most beautiful maternity session taking place. I couldn't take my eyes off of them. It looked so peaceful and ethereal. The mother looked like a model (BTW all of Amber's clients are simply STUNNING) and the photographer looked super professional with her good looking videographer by her side ;) and all her accessories/props for her session. I had never come across a session like this. EVER. At the end of our "hike"... as we were walking to our car, I saw everyone standing and talking nearby in the parking lot. I walked up and asked her if she also did toddler sessions. To my delight, she said YES! She gave me one of her cards and I walked back to my car. Her business card was perfect... if it was an indication of the kind of work she was capable of, I knew I couldn't be disappointed. As soon as we got home, hubby and I went on her site. Each picture we saw was simply amazing. Each better than the last (if that was even possible). I emailed her immediately... told her I was the weird gawker from Back Bay. Warned her about my very feisty/squirmy/not so cooperative 2 1/2 yr old. And if she was up for the challenge, I would love to book a session with her. She fearlessly accepted. We started with a mini. The way my daughter was running around/away from Amber, I gave up any hope of getting a decent photo. When she sent me the gallery... I was SHOCKED. HOW did she manage to capture such images? Hubby received pictures for his birthday... to say it was his FAVORITE present ever is the understatement of the year. BTW... parts of this mini session ended up on her video. If you haven't seen it... you MUST. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBc7ucoXwG4 (Doesn't it just warm your heart?) Fast forward a few months later... Amber posts on her Facebook about this ridiculously adorable dress. Would anyone buy it and let her photograph the "model". I accepted this challenge as we needed to book our daughter's 3 year pictures. This time, I was smart enough to book a full session instead of a mini. And this session would be no less challenging for Amber... just having woken up from a nap, we had a very cranky (and still tired) 3 year old. (*sigh) I prayed that Amber would be able to work her magic despite the uncooperative "model". When the gallery arrived... I almost cried it was so beautiful. Every picture was so angelic. Since our first encounter... we have not only built a lasting business relationship, but a friendly one as well. So, when she informed me that she would be opening a new studio... I was thrilled for her (both as a client and friend). When we went to her open house, you could tell that blood, sweat and tears went into creating such a warm and inviting studio for her clients. The organization of all her props... the play area for the kiddos (my 3 yo definitely approved) and just the coziness of the studio itself, despite it's huge space. Overall... There aren't words to describe the kind of pictures she captures. The mood that takes over when viewing her photos. The images that we will treasure FOREVER. We truly believe that Amber is WORTH. EVERY. PENNY. You will NOT be disappointed.

This was a present for my Wife. Sugar Free was chosen because of the previous allotment of pictures we had gone through to choose the right photographer. Every picture you see, you can tell they took pain staking time to do correctly. No double chins, perfect lighting, and incredible facial expressions caught at just the right time. Anyone can take a picture, but Sugar Free Photography has talent. So, this is a step by step rating of Sugar Photography. We have already done the first 2 steps and have been thrilled with the way things have worked out so far. Step 1; The Consultation: An introduction to you and your photographer and crew. You know, most people will actually try to up-sell you on product. Amber and Tabetha listened to our needs and became creative with our budget, this made us feel comfortable with what we were getting, as they had a lot of options available. Then they showed us around the studio , the dressing room, the kids room, and the adult lounge room. Both are incredibly nice and you can tell they love what they do. Step 2; Day of the Shoot: PREPARATION We had Elfie Simon as the make-up artist. She did an amazing job with not only make-up , but hair as well. She left my wife feeling like a princess, and she couldn't help but takes a few selfies with her new look. When it came time for dresses, Tabetha, Amber and my wife went through their inventory of dresses to find just the right ones... They picked a couple I thought would look horrible, but they were right they looked incredible. INDOOR SHOOT They had a setup designed and ready for my wife. It was easy to work with. They positioned her into some weird positions, that ended up with her at one point almost tipping over which was pretty funny... but the positioning is key to get the best shots. OUTDOOR SHOOT We had selected to do the beach photography. We followed them to the beach and made our way down to the shoreline. The dresses there flowed beautifully with the breeze and you could tell that the photo's they were taking were going to be gorgeous. If Tabetha hadn't been there, my wife would have fallen a couple of times. They moved her location around a bit to get different angled shots. They were great to work with. Now we are just waiting for the photo's.

I knew I would be booking the newborn session and I never ever imagined doing a maternity shoot until I saw Ambers work. She's so easy to work with and makes you feel comfortable, even at the beach with a bunch of other photo sessions going on. Can't wait for our newborn shoot!!

Molly M.

Our family is still absolutely in love with the photos that Amber shot of our daughters in December. Everything about our experience was perfect, from her interactions with the girls, the studio, and the final product. We are so grateful!

Amber captured my daughter and I perfectly. She was teething terribly the whole time but you would have never even guessed it.

See all

From maternity sessions to newborn shoots and first birthdays for both of my children, she has beautifully documented every milestone. Each photo she delivers is stunning, and they only become more meaningful as my children grow. Looking back at them always brings me so much joy. Truly, once you experience Cathy's work, it's hard to imagine working with anyone else What sets Cathy apart is her incredible attention to detail and organization. She takes the time--before, during, and after each session--to ensure everything turns out perfectly. She's easy to communicate with, genuinely listens to what you want, and goes above and beyond to make it happen. Her studio is also spotless and welcoming, making the entire experience comfortable for everyone. Highly, highly recommend!

We had a hard time selecting outfits so she even looked for some outfits for us on Amazon. She took a family portrait of us with 7 adults, 1 baby, and 1 dog - amazing! Also we requested Chinese Zhua Zhou (brought our own props) in the photos to honor my culture, she accommodated that. Lastly, she's very honest about what's recommended and what's not based on the baby's attention span. I really appreciated that as a first time parent. In conclusion, highly recommend!!

If you want to re-live your big day over and over again years later, James is your guy! My wife and I had never done a professional photoshoot. Neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera. After interviewing 5 different photographers, we knew from our first conversation that James was the one. He is incredibly friendly, easy going, and knowledgeable. We agreed to do an engagement session, 1 location for 90mins to see if we'd be comfortable working with James. It couldn't have gone better. Initially, we were a bit stiff, but James gave us tips on how to act naturally, suggested poses and hand positions that made us feel and look relaxed. The time flew by and we actually ended up going to a second location with a wardrobe change. Overall, it was about 2 hours. James did not mind at all. In fact, he probably could've gone longer if the sun hadn't set on us! Our photos were edited and received in less than 2 weeks! James was kind enough to print a large poster and sign that shipped to our house in just a few days. He price matched any package/prints from other photographers. Having gone through our engagement session seamlessly, we hired James to shoot our wedding as well. He and an assistant were on site for 10 hours, tending to our every need and keeping us on our timeline. After our planned family/wedding party photos, we hardly even noticed them working as we proceeded with wedding events. After the wedding, we received many compliments on how great James was and several guests asked for his contact information. Within a couple of days, we received a preview of about 20 photos highlighting our big day. We were thrilled! Every important moment was captured so elegantly! The full magazine of photos was available for download in about 1 month. James then worked with us to print a high quality photo book for our coffee table. You can't go wrong with James--his high quality work and work ethic speak for themselves. There is no substitute for how easy and stress free he made us feel, so that we could truly enjoy ourselves knowing that he would capture every single moment candidly. Do not hesitate to hire James, it will be the best decision you will ever make.

An unforgettable experience captured perfectly -- thank you, James!…read more I had the honor of graduating from both LACC and UCLA Extension, and I'm so grateful that James was there to capture every important moment. From our first communication, he was extremely professional, flexible, and kind, always making sure he understood what I wanted and adapting to each location, timeline, and change with ease. He photographed both ceremonies with incredible attention to detail -- from candid moments of me with my husband, family, and friends, to emotional highlights like walking across the stage, and even the quiet, heartfelt moments in between. His eye for storytelling brought every part of the day to life. James made everyone feel comfortable, and his warm presence truly added to the celebration. He treated both graduations with care and dedication, and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to help preserve these milestones. If you're looking for someone reliable, talented, and genuinely passionate about their work -- James is the one. Thank you again for capturing these beautiful memories that my loved ones and I will treasure forever!

My wife gave me this boudoir shoot as a birthday gift, and wow, what a gift it turned out to be…read more From my perspective as the husband on the receiving end, the photos came out incredible. Let's just say... she absolutely understood the assignment. What I really appreciated was how much class the studio brought to the entire experience. The images were sexy without being too much, elegant without losing that playful and intimate feel. They clearly knew how to highlight her beauty in a tasteful, flattering, and polished way. You can tell this studio knows exactly what they're doing. The photos definitely had plenty of heat, but just as important, my wife seemed comfortable throughout the process, and that showed in the final results. As her husband, I'll just say I probably spent longer admiring the photos than I should admit in a Yelp review. This was absolutely a home run of a birthday gift. If you're looking for a boudoir studio that can create something sexy, polished, and genuinely classy, I would absolutely recommend them. To respect my wife's privacy, I attached AI-generated recreations inspired by the actual shots.

To put this into perspective, she did my mom's boudoir shoot over 15 years ago, and then my aunt's. I guess true to what's starting to look like a family tradition (lol), I came to Beth for my own boudoir shoot to surprise my husband on our wedding day. Beth is incredibly talented, warm, and is a master at making her clients feel comfortable and confident. For those who're worried about what to do or who generally don't think they look good in pictures, don't sweat it. She'll tell you exactly how to pose, where to look, and overall hold your hand throughout the entire process. I didn't worry about a thing during my shoot. When she showed me the sneak peeks afterward, I couldn't believe the results! And this was before editing. The final product--a high-quality, heavy-duty book--took my breath away. Beth is worth every penny and is truly a gift to women. She cares deeply about her clients and her work, and it shows.
