She responded very quickly and was able to book soon, which is what we were hoping for. In getting ready for the photo shoot, I messaged back and forth with her about what we should wear, to include sending pictures of our outfits. She gave good feedback and recommendations. I was nervous about making sure we looked good together, but not matching TOO well and looking cheesy. I felt really good about the outfit decisions after working with her, which made me confident in the shoot. We booked an hour long shoot and decided to start in our home and then transition outside. Now my family consists of my husband and me, plus our dog and two cats. Though our pets were not the most cooperative during the shoot, Marina was very patient and happy to work with us to get decent photos with all the pets (yep, even the cats). We ended up spending about 45 min in our home and then drove to a nearby park to take photos outside. Marina found a great spot to start and after taking several shots there, we walked around and went to a spot my husband and I frequented. We spent about 45 min there too, so the total time we had with her was about 1.5 hrs. She did not even mention the extra time and before we were done, wanted to make very sure there weren't any other locations or shots we wanted. We really appreciate the fact that she cared and wanted to make sure we were satisfied. The pictures turned out beautifully. We are very happy with the final product and even the unedited photos are worth printing!

Kari knew exactly what my requirements were and she took very professional photos. She has an office up front and a nice cozy studio setup at the back.

She only takes cash or cheques so be prepared ( but there are plenty of ATMs around so that shouldn't be a problem). Definitely recommend! Support local Waltham businesses and go to Albert's studio.

Are you looking for a funny, fabulous, feisty, and professional photographer to capture your…read moreperfect portrait? If so, I recommend Tara Jones to you with my highest confidence. If you're looking for hum-drum, definitely don't pick her. Tara did a portrait shoot with me and my wife which I needed for my professional profile. She picked the location, gave us some tips on what to wear, and put us at ease about the process before we even showed up. But Tara in person was even better. She made us laugh and relax and forget, in the best way, that we were having our photos taken. We had a great time, laughed a lot, and all the while she was capturing all sorts of hidden gems. And that's probably what sets Tara apart. Granted, I haven't ever had a professional portrait shot before, but what she captured from our time together was something I couldn't have anticipated. I feel like she captured my "best self" on the camera. I was thrilled with the results and I use the photos she took of me on all my most important profession online profiles. And I feel proud of it. I know that might sound a little weird. Since I rarely feel really great about photos of myself. But she really delivered the goods. And the best part was that I had many options to choose from. She gives you a whole gallery of photos from which you can choose the ones you like best. Then she does subtle touching up to bring it all to another level. I couldn't be happier with the end product. In fact, the whole process, which I imagined would be kind of awkward and painful, turned out to be fun and enjoyable. Personally, I think It's natural to be on the fence about something like a portrait. You're not sure if it's really worth the money, time, and effort. So maybe like you, I was on the fence with it for a while. But let me say now, if you are on the fence like I was, jump off. Tara will deliver the goods. Why, because every time I look online and see the picture of myself that she took, I feel great about it. I don't feel ambivalent at all. In my opinion, that's the kind of confidence and satisfaction that's worth the money. Because think about it, we all judge each other on first appearances. It's human nature. And now, I feel like whenever I make an important connection online, I've already put my best foot forward. In my opinion, that's priceless.

It's important for my online presence to be distinctive and unique, while maintaining a cool professional tone. Tara gets this right. I love Tara's work because she has this amazing balance of style and naturalness. So many posed portrait shots look cheesy and staged, like a high school yearbook photo. Tara's gift is to get you to be unselfconscious so the best of you comes out. And she does with a beautiful command of light and texture. I couldn't recommend her more highly!!

IIn the immediate after-glow of wedded bliss, I gave Ashley a 5 star review. Now, almost 4 years…read morelater, I can see things more clearly and I was way too generous. To be honest, I'm pretty disappointed in my wedding photos. They're artistic and there are a lot of candids of wedding guests (like we wanted) but there are pretty much no good pictures of my husband and I where you can actually see both of our faces clearly, with no heads cut off (she cut his head off in 90% of the photos and he's not abnormally tall or anything). We decided recently to maybe frame a few of our wedding photos since we spent all that $ and when we were looking for options, we realized we had none. If I looked great in one, his head was cut off. If he looked great in one, I was sort of blurred out and fuzzy (intentionally I guess). Like I said, they're creative. But there are basically NONE that captured us looking terrific on our wedding day. Terrific scenery, terrific flowers, pretty cupcakes, nice shots of my dress or me having makeup applied, cute flower girl shots, some distant full length shots of us, a nice picture of me dancing with my dad etc. But not one good , close-up picture of me and my husband together. it makes me sad.

Nicole was such a pleasure to work with, from our initial phone conversations to meeting in person to design our wedding album. We were so fortunate to have Nicole and her team photograph our special day. Nicole, Karen, and Phoebe arrived promptly to our hotel and immediately went to work photographing our day. They were all incredibly professional, friendly, and organized. I have never met anyone that was as organized as Nicole. She really spends time planning everything out so that the day runs smoothly. Nicole and her crew also worked very well with our videographer. They complemented each other well. Not only is Nicole invested in quality photographs, but she is invested in getting to know the couple. Nicole called us several times before the wedding to talk about how we met and to share our story. We really appreciated this because not only did it allow Nicole to learn more about us, but she was somehow able to capture the essence of our relationship in her photographs. Nicole pays great attention to detail. She has extraordinary vision. You can tell she has a true talent for this. We joked with Nicole that we are awkward in photos, but Nicole eased our nerves and miraculously overcame our photo-awkwardness! We also want to thank Nicole for her patience with photographing our dogs, Dallas and Bradley, on our wedding day. They even brought a squeaky ball to get the attention of our pups during photoshoots (and even doggy bags for any stops along the way--superb service!). Nicole works with you and goes through a detailed plan on who you would like her to focus on whether it be friends, family, wedding party, etc. She is also open to all your ideas about the types of photographs you would like. When it was time to design our photo album, Nicole invited us to her studio to watch a slideshow of our photos on a projector. This was truly an experience, and it really brought back such wonderful memories. We designed a high-quality photo album and it is truly breathtaking. Nicole, thank you and your crew for such an amazing job on our wedding. We can't thank you enough for all you have done for us. The pictures came out better than we could have ever imagined. Thank you for being so fun to work with and for allowing us to share with you our love story. We highly recommend Nicole Chan Photography.

We don't take a lot of photos and are pretty camera-shy, but Nicole was very helpful and gently guided us on what to do and made us feel free to try out different things. She was very gracious during our session and even went a little over time because we had to feed the baby in the middle of it. Photos came back within two weeks and we're very happy with them.
