A friend recommended her to me for boudoir photos and I contacted her and was able to book within a few weeks (though I believe she typically books further out). She answered all of my questions beforehand, gave me her cell phone number, reassured me, and gave me tips for the day of. Her studio is absolutely beautiful and very private. She and her makeup artist Destiny were there to greet me and they immediately made me feel extremely comfortable. Destiny did my makeup while LeZandra and I chatted about what types of images I liked and what I wanted out of my photo shoot. I brought some of my own outfits but she has a whole closet of beautiful lingerie and shoes to choose from as well. LeZandra guided me through poses and made me feel super comfortable but like an absolute supermodel at the same time. She was very encouraging and showed me images along the way to make sure I liked the direction she was going in. We ended up taking a little longer than her usual sessions because she was so easy to talk to and felt like an old friend by the end of our session. The whole experience was a blast and I can't wait to see the images. If you are interested in boudoir photography I can not recommend her enough!

I wasn't Entirely sure because it was definitely something I wasn't sure about because I am not extremely confident in my body. I thought "why would I do this if I don't LOVE LOVE my body right now. It was the BEST decision ever!! This made me fall in love with myself again!! The shoot was so fun! Carla's energy and personality makes the session a blast!! I am Ready to book another! When I left for an hour so she could go through and edit I was So anxious and ready to see them! Her work and editing is amazing!! She made feel so comfortable during the shoot and I loved It!! I can NOT recommend her enough!! I will be telling all of my friends about her!! Not only will my fiancé love this gift but I love This gift for myself!! Thank you so much Carla, I cant Thank you enough!!!

If I could give Sarah ten stars, I would! Choosing her as our wedding photographer was easily the…read morebest decision we made for our big day. From the initial inquiry to the final gallery delivery, the entire experience was flawless. Sarah is the definition of a professional. Her contract was straightforward and easy to understand, and she was incredibly responsive and easy to get a hold of throughout the entire planning process. On the wedding day itself, she was prompt and even arrived early, which immediately put my mind at ease during the morning rush. I'll be the first to admit that I am not "good" at having my picture taken... I usually feel awkward and stiff in front of a camera and my self esteem isn't the highest. However, Sarah made me feel instantly comfortable and relaxed. She has such a gift for direction and used unique, creative poses that felt natural rather than forced. My guests and wedding party haven't stopped talking about how much they absolutely loved her energy; she truly felt like a part of the family while still staying incredibly focused on her craft. I specifically asked for a focus on candids, and Sarah delivered beyond my wildest dreams. She captured the raw emotion and "in-between" moments perfectly, and every single edit was breathtakingly beautiful. Her pricing is amazing for the high level of talent she provides, and to top it all off, she delivered our full gallery ahead of schedule! I had actually hired Sarah previously for a friend's maternity shoot, and after seeing her work there and now at my wedding, I am a customer for life. We are already in talks about my own maternity photos this coming spring! If you want amazing value, exceptional photo quality, and a photographer who makes the day stress free, hire Sarah. I had tears looking through my gallery and I cannot believe how beautiful I look and how well she captured my day. Especially the moments I wasn't able to see for myself. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Since my fiancé isn't a fan of taking photos, I was a bit nervous about how the session would go, worrying it might feel awkward. However, Sarah immediately made us feel comfortable, and the session flowed seamlessly. I'll definitely be booking all my future photos with her. I shared my ideas and inspiration with her, and she brought them to life perfectly. I was a bit self-conscious about my weight and asked her to capture flattering angles--and she did an amazing job! I genuinely love how the photos turned out. If I could give her 10 stars, I would! Sarah is incredibly sweet, talented, and easy to work with. I highly, highly recommend her. I couldn't imagine getting better photos anywhere else. Thank you so so so much!

Then when we had to move the scheduled date because of a change in state playoffs, he was understanding and again accommodating on the next date. He was extra proactive when it looked like our rescheduled date might get rained out. He was extremely professional, worked well with two boys that may not always smile, captured the best angles of our backyard and sunset glow, and posed us all in a way that was natural and flattering. Afterwards, he quickly called to schedule a session to see the photos. I understand why he does not do it over the internet. I know that people may have the knowledge to take screen captures and remove watermarks. While I would not do this, he needs to protect his work. He was patient while we picked from his expertly pre-edited selections, but also let me look over the whole lot to make sure there was nothing I liked better. He may not be the rock bottom cheapest but you get what you pay for. Our last photosession was with such a photographer -not Andrew. It all seemed to be going as all photo sessions in the past. Then weeks later we get photos that were we were not posed well, lightening was not ideal, and the composition of the photo was obviously not considered. These make me sad everytime I look at them because I know I will not get that moment back in our kids' lives. I know Andrew's photos will bring me joy for all my years to come of this last moment before my oldest is technically an adult. I can't wait to get them hung on the wall. Bottom line, if you want visual memory you will cherish forever, then hire Andrew.

I had a very particular type of photo in mind and likely far to many specific requests. She listened to all of my input and made it happen. She is extremely detail oriented and passionate about her photography. The photos are far better than I ever envisioned! Booking and payment was simple, all online. She was in constant communication up to the day of the shoot, providing ideas about locations and details of what was required at various locations (e.g., permits, fees, etc.). She did her homework and scoped out our chosen location in advance. The day of the shoot was a breeze. Lyndsay (and her husband Tony) made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable, as if we had known them for years. My fiancé begrudgingly appeased me with a 2-hour shoot. Lyndsay was so patient with him and still managed to get a ton of great photos! We got our photos so quick! Lyndsay gave us a teaser within a day of the shoot. This was so exciting! She turned around the photos much quicker than I anticipated. All of them were beyond perfect!

I would recommend this location if you don't have a budget. I explained in further detail below. Cons: Extremely overpriced! We received approximately 20 photos on a USB flash drive and a few printed pictures for over 950.00 dollars.Looking back I still can't believe I paid that much for the photos but I wanted each of them because they turned out so beautiful! With that being said to get all of the pictures on a disk drive , the owner makes your purchase a package with printed photos. All the packages with the USB flash drives are over 900+ so be prepared in the financial department !
