Michael is not just a photographer. He is an amazing, fun, life of the party, bring people together…read moretype of photographer. I could not have made a better choice for my wedding. He came to the bridal suite ahead of the wedding and we had a great time preparing. He made sure to get all of the photos I wanted while also doing it quickly and efficiently. Even my relatives who hate standing for photos couldn't complain! He saved the day when the DJ showed 5 hours late, he worked with my bridesmaids for best positions to stand, and he made everyone smile. I am still getting compliments from those who attended the wedding saying he was incredible and so FUN! He encouraged people to get on the dance floor while also enjoying himself. Do yourself a favor a book Michael for your wedding, or really any event. I only have some sneak peak highlights and I'm already in love. He is incredibly talented and a wonderful, down to earth good person. We love you Michael!

Amanda is the dream wedding photographer to work with. She's professional and so incredibly gifted…read more Her creativity and skills are unparalleled. This past weekend we got married, and before we even woke up, she sent us a preview of our pictures. I've never seen more stunning photographs of us. I cannot believe how well she captures the moment. I can't wait to see the rest of the pictures but I have full confidence that she captured all of the big moments perfectly. Not only are her pictures gorgeous, but she's a great person to work with. She's kind, hilarious and passionate. It felt like having another friend get ready with us. We were laughing and having fun every time we were around her. She evokes true smiles. When you hire Amanda, you can feel comfortable knowing you'll get STUNNING pictures. I feel so incredibly lucky that she wasn't already booked for our wedding. If you have the opportunity to book her, don't wait!!!

Family photos , senior pictures , headshots , she can do them all and very well at that! Go with her you won't be disappointed! From the second our family walked through her studio door for our photo shoot , we felt welcomed and comfortable. She communicated well to us and had a delious batch of chocolate chip cookies and ice water waiting. (for the extremely warm newborn room) Her booklet for us to browse through was sitting there too. Very professional , yet warm and inviting. She got our baby boy ready and kept him comfortable as he dozed. She captured some really amazing shots of our little , yet 9lb baby. She suggested poses for all of us , yet I felt comfortable requesting my own thoughts to get her opinion on. She knew her lighting , what would work and turn out well , before putting her eye on the camera. Being a post partum mom , swollen and tired (and showing it too!!) she captured angles that were flattering for me, which I appreciated greatly. Overall, I was very happy with how each picture turned out, precious. We also did our family photo shoot (with Baby reveal to other kids) and maternity shoot. Despite dealing with multiple people , outfit changes, kids attitudes, etc she handled us very well! She was open to my ideas and willing to give hers. She paid attention to detail. Correcting hair, dresses , shoulder placement if anything was not to her standard. I appreciate this as well! I was thrilled with the beginning to end results in all three of our shoots with Jenny. Truly a blessing to have such a gift, as she does.

She is an absolute magician with lighting and the sun! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera! Her eye for detail is incredible: the lighting, the candid moments, the emotions -- everything was captured so beautifully and naturally. She didn't just take photos; they told our story. She goes above and beyond for her clients; even meeting us on her family vacation to take our engagment photos closer to us. On the wedding day, Virginia was professional, organized, and somehow everywhere at once without ever being intrusive. She kept things fun and relaxed while still keeping us on schedule. Our family and friends can't stop raving about how stunning the pictures are! If you're looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also genuinely kind, creative, and passionate about their work, Virginia is the one. We'll treasure these photos forever.

As a recently fired fed, I needed to hit reset on my 20+ year career. First step - getting…read moreprofessional headshots. I'd had some done before, but they turned out terrible and I never used them - I looked awkward and uncomfortable, and they just weren't that flattering. This experience was 1000% different. John took the time to chat with me ahead of the photos, making me feel comfortable, and then proceeded to capture dozens of poses, all the while providing helpful commentary to make me feel relaxed to give natural looks to reflect me, but professional. I cannot recommend him enough!

TLDR: If you're looking for a corporate headshot, Armato Photography is 10000% the way to go…read more Yelp's review of "great" is an absolute understatement here --- Armato photography is nothing short of exemplary. I recently transitioned to a new company which required me to update my headshots. It had been a while since I have had headshots done and all I told John was that I needed to look corporate and executive. I notified him of the color scheme my company needed in advance. He made recommendations regarding the colors I should wear and bring and he allowed me to bring multiple outfits to test out which looked best. I am generally a stiff and tense individual and "relaxing" for pictures does not come naturally to me. Not only was John incredibly flexible and understanding of everything, he had this great way of coaching me through the entire experience in a lighthearted, fun and extremely enjoyable way...so much so that nothing about me screamed "tense" or "stiff" in the final headshot. John has a way of connecting to you as a human being, leveraging the few things he knows about you to bring out joy and confidence in your eyes and basically create a masterpiece out of a rock (me, I am the rock). Aside from being so incredibly talented, John is also incredibly patient. I am pretty picky when it comes to my headshots (I always hyperfocus on the smallest details about my appearance which deter me from pictures that may be amazing but from my perspective are lacking or off). I wasn't sure what I would be picky about as it had been a while since I had obtained headshots, so after every few pictures, John would pause and review them with me. He would allow me to express what I liked and didn't like, while also supplying his professional input. We would then take more photos, pause, and repeat. While I was more focused on how random folds in my outfit looked or how certain features of my face looked (my nose has a little curve that is very normal, but throws me off so I am particular RE the angles in which photos are taken of me), John was focused on ensuring he was capturing small details to fit into the big picture. He was not only focusing on the details I was telling him I was picky on, he was also incorporating additional details to make sure every aspect of the picture was ideal. What I appreciated most is the educational component that went into the process - he would guide me through his thoughts and supply recommendations...but would take it one step further and show me the results once I would incorporate a recommendation (instant gratification = fulfilled). Another bonus is that during no part of the process did I feel that John was in a rush or annoyed by my pickiness. I can confidently say this is the first time I have encountered such a photographer when it comes to headshots. Hands down the best way to end 2021 was having John complete my headshots. I will definitely be heading in 2022 with a confident, but approachable, picture to display to the corporate world. Oh, and I will also be recommending John to every family member, friend, colleague, etc that I have who may need headshots updated...he was THAT good. Thank you, Armato Photography, for the incredible experience and amazing photos.

She pays attention to detail and that is MAJOR when it comes to pictures! She even noticed that the park we were shooting at had changed their rules last minute and brought us up to speed on that. We hiked a mountain and crossed a creek to take our pictures and Mary Sarah didn't miss a beat! Did I mention that it was all done IN THE RAIN? Her dedication is immeasurable. During our last shoot, Mary sarah had a bug in her eye and she didn't let that stop her. I don't know about you, but anyone who is willing to continue working with a bug in their eye is alright with me! In a nutshell, Mary Sarah has a great personality and does spectacular work. Her passion for her craft captured those special moments and I can now look at them forever!

My husband and I hired Brad as our photographer for our wedding in March 2019. From the very…read morebeginning it was clear that Brad understood and could articulate our vision better than we could. The conversation was always easy and felt like we were building our vision together - very organic. He was extremely personable and professional throughout the entire process. He added an element of fun to an otherwise stressful activity. Brad also went above and beyond in our engagement photoshoot. Being a gay couple our proposal was unorthodox. My husband had proposed about a year earlier but I wanted to propose to him as well. I told Brad that I wanted to use the engagement photoshoot to surprise my husband with my proposal. Not only was he onboard to take the action shots, but he was just as excited as I was and helped me pull it off without a hitch. He even came up with the code word we would use right before I took a knee! The photos from this shoot blew us away and shattered our expectations. Following the engagement shoot we had full confidence that he was going to get amazing shots, both staged and candid, throughout our wedding. He did not disappoint! Brad is a true artist. He got shots we would have never thought to take in locations we would have never thought to take them. He took one silhouette photo that is so well composed that it would be better to call it a work of art than a wedding photograph. Brad's talents go beyond photography. He even took control to help coordinate the event. He ensured we were where we needed to be when we needed to be there. He wrangled family members and friends to make sure there were where they needed to be so we would get the photos we wanted. There aren't enough words to say how much we enjoyed working with Brad, how impressed we were by him every step of the way, and how much we would recommend him to anyone. You would be a FOOL not to hire Brad.
