Candy and team were very responsive and answered all of my questions prior to booking. The maternity session was such a treat and so stress-free! I decided at 34 weeks that I wanted maternity photos and Candy made it happen. There are so many dresses to choose from so I didn't have to worry about shopping for dresses. I just showed up with a small bag and Candy and Nicole took care of the rest. They were so kind and made me feel at ease during my session. It was nice get done up after spending most of my pregnancy during the pandemic in loungewear. The newborn session was also fantastic! It's apparent that Candy has a lot of experience with babies and trusted her with my daughter. Similar to the maternity session, Candy thinks of it all and makes the experience exceptional...from the preparation to the props, wraps, and accessories she provides. I am so happy we were able to capture these moments and love the photos and albums. And finally but not least... the makeup and hair!! Not only is Nicole very sweet, she is very talented! She did my makeup both times and I loved it.... so much that I slept in my makeup after the second session (figured it was worth risking any breakouts!) If you are looking for fantastic photos, a great end-to-end experience, with a professional and kind team, I highly recommend Sugashoc. Sugashoc, Candy and Nicole - Thanks so much!

We just received our photos from our wedding on 3/21 and all we could say is WOW. My wife and I…read morewere just in awe of how amazing the photos looked, especially the portraits which looked like a work of art. We were assigned Reena and Roderick as our main photographer and videographer, and Ben and Tuck as the secondary photographer and videographer. They gave such clear direction to ensure the photos came out the way we wanted. All 4 of them were respectful, professional and very accommodating. We had an extensive list of photo combinations we wanted with the bridal party, our parents, wedding sponsors, and extended family and the Dean Michaels team managed to capture every single moment. I'd ask Reena last minute if we could take pictures at different locations and she would be so accommodating and the photos came out perfect. We are so glad we went with Dean Michaels. It's always tough picking through hundreds of wedding photo companies but my wife and I really liked the style of Dean Michaels which provided a good mix of dramatic and traditional photos without being too over the top. We highly recommend Dean Michaels if you're undecided who to go with for your wedding or any other events!

She made us feel completely comfortable, and it shows in every photo. Her work is absolutely stunning. She captured every emotion, every detail, and all the little in-between moments with such artistry and heart. We're in love with our photos. April went above and beyond--she even stepped in to speak with our venue organizer when we were having trouble getting a response. That's just the kind of person she is: thoughtful, proactive, and completely invested in making sure your day is perfect. We truly couldn't have asked for a better photographer or a better person to share our day with. We'll cherish both the memories and the photos forever. Thank you April! Maria & Seth

Booking was easy and she guided us every step of the way. She selected a beautiful location and even happily helped us choose our outfits for the shoot! During the shoot itself, she made us feel comfortable and kept us laughing and smiling as if we were being photographed by an old friend. There were no awkward pauses and you could tell she was genuinely excited and happy to be photographing us, doing what she loves, which made it much easier for us to enjoy being there ourselves. We received our finished photos within a week, much earlier than we expected during the busy holiday season. The photos were stunning and it was obvious that she really paid close attention to detail. I can be difficult to photograph because of how much I blink but you wouldn't be able to tell from the photos that this was even an issue, which was a big plus for me. We received so many compliments on the photos and could not be happier! Overall, great photographer, great customer service and AMAZING photos. Can't wait to hire her for more milestones in the future.
