From the start, working with her was extremely professional. She was very timely with her email responses and was even able to fit us in on short notice. Her studio is attached to her home, and has a ton of props and outfits for newborns. She was so great with our newborn, she was able to soothe him and keep him calm between the outfit changes. Her patience was unbelievable! She accommodated all our requests for poses and props, with no hesitation. I will recommend H. Lane photography to all my friends and family. I can not wait to come back to get 1 year photos of my baby !

The Best Doula and Photographer -- Natalie Made My VBAC Dream Come True!…read more I cannot say enough about Natalie -- she was truly the reason my VBAC was such a success. She stayed by my side for over 24 hours, never once losing patience or energy. She guided me through every contraction, changed my position constantly, and did everything possible to help me stay strong and focused. Her calm, knowledgeable presence gave me confidence when I doubted myself, and I'll forever be grateful for her support and expertise. On top of being an incredible doula, Natalie is also an amazing newborn photographer. She came to our home just days after the birth and spent extra time making sure every shot was perfect -- never rushing, always so gentle with our baby. She went above and beyond by giving us additional photos and getting them back to us in only a few days. The images are absolutely stunning and capture this precious time so beautifully. Natalie is one of a kind -- dedicated, compassionate, and unbelievably talented. I can't imagine my birth or these first memories without her. If you're considering a doula or newborn photographer, Natalie is the one you want by your side.

I've lost track of how many times we've shared our photos and heard back 'these are the best wedding pictures we've ever seen taken'. All we had to do was browse some of their work and we were certain they were best to capture our special day. (Seriously, first vendor we booked!) They capture true emotions of the day, raw details, seemingly innocuous 'nothing' moments made spectacular by this team's expertise of knowing exactly when to snap that pic! You'll get all the standard family/wedding party/cake cutting photos you can imagine, sure...but SO. MUCH. MORE. with Roni and David! And it's those unassuming, unposed, real-time moments captured that you'll keep going back to again and again, reliving your day in a way that feels so REAL and alive and anything but posed. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! Get on their calendar now, you will not be disappointed.

We couldn't be happier with our newborn session with Shannon! Her home studio was warm, cozy,…read moreclean, and bright - all components that really matter when it comes to newborn photography. Shannon has an impressive artistic flair that really shines through in her work. Her calm demeanor and quick-reflexes were an integral part of what made for a successful shoot. She even managed to coax some really great photos out of our temperamental toddler! The turnaround time was also super quick. Shannon really works hard to make sure each photo is professional grade stuff. It was, by far, the best photo session we've done in regards to how well she was at putting us at ease and also how the photos turned out. I am very much looking forward to working with her again!

Looking for a photographer? Look no further than Chantel Ferraro at Dream2Be Image Photography…read more I've used her not once, but twice! If you have the chance to do something a second time, and you go back and use the same provider again, it speaks volumes as to the talent demonstrated and the results produced. She has a real "eye" for perfection and coaches you on how to pose to produce the best possible photographs. Her talent as a photographer grows with each passing day. I really liked her studio and the services she provided. If you want your make-up professionally done, she brings in the best to do it. I was very pleased with her work and felt her prices were appropriate. You get what you paid for and more!

When Chrissy showed up, talked to us, and took us around Chicago she took all those nerves away. Everything went so smooth and it felt so easy and we couldn't thank Chrissy enough for providing such a warm and light environment. Our families even commented on how sweet and helpful she was.

She is so sweet and never makes you feel uncomfortable. She is so knowledgeable about what looks good and improvises if things don't quite work out how they were planned. We had planned to get sunset pictures during our reception, but it down poured and was storming the entire night. Instead of just not getting any pictures outside, Chrissy had the great idea to get pics outside with an umbrella (after the storms were gone) and these turned out to be some of our favorites!! She also has an eye for capturing the most meaningful candid pictures. I could go on and on! She's the best!!

When looking for a photographer for our wedding, my criteria were that the photographer takes…read morebeautiful shots and that they are reliable. After looking through Brian's impressive portfolio and sitting down with him to talk, we decided to hire him for our wedding and engagement shoot. Brian completely exceeded my expectations in every way possible. Brian is not only very reliable, but he is also extremely dedicated to his work. Brian drove over 90 miles to get to our engagement photo shoot and on the way he stopped at a gas station on the south side of Chicago where he stepped on two nails, which punctured his foot. Although we insisted that we reschedule so he could take care of himself, he still arrived (early, as his style) ready to shoot our session. He carried his equipment on his back on his injured foot for miles around Chicago, and took some of the most breathtaking photos I have ever seen. Brian helped us to feel completely comfortable the entire time. I remember being impressed with how he can walk backwards, get to know us better by carrying on a conversation, assess the lighting of the area around him, all while shooting pictures that made our families cry and that we will treasure forever. We are happier than ever that we chose Brian and his assistant Greg to shoot our wedding on July 13, 2013. On the day of my wedding, I didn't have time to notice all of the details that I previously spent so much time planning. Brian perfectly captured all of these details in his photographs. There were many shots that I would have never thought to ask him to take, but because of his professionalism and experience he provided these pictures for us. Most importantly, Brian captured the moments that happen so quickly.. but that I will remember forever. Because of his talent, I have photos of my mom trying not to cry as I step into my dress, my grandmother giggling with the woman who was doing her make up, my groom's first teary look at me, and so much more. You are a lucky couple if you get to book Brian for your wedding!
