Being a mom herself, she knew exactly how to connect with our toddler (he even started calling her Aunt Jess) and handle our newborn. It was an easy process getting our session set up; she put our minds at ease in preparing; and the session was fun and relaxed. We love our photos and will plan another session in the future.

Her photos…read morestood out for me, because they weren't cookie cutter photos, they are real, unique moments captured. Susan listened to all of our ideas for what we wanted, and came up with more ideas to improve upon our vision. The only problem that we had with our photos with was figuring out which were the best, because there were so many good ones! Susan also took amazing portraits of our three dogs. Wrangling them and getting them all in one photo is no easy feat. She got the photo in much less than an hour and the dogs had a blast. She's very professional but also extremely fun to be around. My husband isn't exactly a picture person, but he never seemed to mind her taking his photo. As quality photographers come, her pricing is also very fair. If you have the chance to book with her, seriously take it.

So, Susan did my maternity photos and I loved them. I didn't think I could love any photo more…read moreuntil she did my family session with my now 6 month old kiddo. We went to Susan's studio, on what I swear was the hottest day of all time and although I felt hot and sweaty and yucky, the pictures turned out fabulous. The ones of my husband and my kid are just PRICELESS and they make me so happy. Susan has a way of capturing the moment so that all the joy and expression and emotion just comes through. If there wasn't a photo to prove it, you'd never know there was a photographer documenting the moment and for me, that's the style I like. Nothing too posed or contrived, just us being us, and Susan coincidentally snapping a few photos in our general direction.

Caroline was amazing. My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Caroline as our wedding…read morephotographer. When we got married I would have loved to have had a tiny country wedding, but family obligations on my husband's side had us locked into a very large affair. Caroline helped us create and capture the intimate moments I was longing for. She worked with us every step of the way to create a photography package that fit our budget and included exactly what we were looking for and none of the extras a lot of the other companies we spoke with tried to slide in. A wedding day is full of adventures and unknowns, but there was never a moment where I had a single second of anxiety about Caroline and I'm proud to have her work in my home (and would be even if it wasn't our wedding photos). In fact - our venue was so impressed by her they asked if they could display the pictures she took of our wedding in their advertising for their wedding packages. She is simply a joy on all levels. A true professional who is looking to give you the once in a lifetime experience you deserve.

So, he just decided that he was relieved from the obligation to get me photos of my wedding. I have ZERO, that's right, absolutely no photos of my wedding. My in-laws are all Turkish and could not attend the wedding due to lack of visas. They have never seen a photo from the event and my father-in-law died not believing we actually got married.

Melanie is amazing. She saved the day for my small, elegant beach elopement…read more I had been speaking to photographers for months and couldn't find anyone that I liked their work enough to hire who was available with less than a year's notice. In comes Melanie, who I happened to find by accident through a Yelp promo email. She had another shoot earlier in the day, but bc we were doing a later beach elopement ceremony and reception, she could do it! Signing the contract and working out all the details online and via email was easy. She sent me some paperwork to give her details and then we had a phone conversation to discuss and get to know one another. On the day of - she texted me, showed up exactly on time, and was a dream to work with. So friendly, so kind, so helpful. She went above and beyond for me and my family and was so easygoing. She posed us wonderfully and rolled with the punches when a few things didn't go as planned (it's a wedding, it's going to happen!). Absolutely professional. The photos we've been given so far as a preview are stunning and I can't wait to see the others. Everyone raved about how kind she was and how much they liked our photographer afterwards, and when we've sent a few photos, they've all been blown away. I feel lucky to have found Melanie, and her husband Chris, to shoot my day and would recommend her to anyone who asked me for any photos.
