I couldn't be more impressed with what Zebra Gallerie has to offer and Kelly's exceptional photographic talent. I participate in some of her photo shoots, bringing my llamas to set. Kelly has also done professional photos of me, and I couldn't be happier with all outcomes. I see some of the best photos of both children and animals, which can be exceedingly challenging. The sets are over the top, with a great deal of forethought, and there are so many to choose from! Kelly's communication has always been concise. I really can't say enough. read more

How you get to the place might be tricky if you are coming here for the first time, but if you just follow the marker in the maps you should be good. There is a board for the establishment near the entrance from Old 41 Hwy NW. We came to know about this place through our friend. It was a maternity photoshoot gift. They have a wardrobe for women and girls mostly. There are different sets in the property that fit perfectly for our maternity photoshoot. Both Kelly and James helped us in every way in our shoot. They made sure that we were comfortable. Our overall experience was great. A picture is indeed worth more than 1000 words and their work speaks for itself. read more

My daughter had a KSU grad pics done and she was SO happy with how they turned out. My sister had previously had family pics done, and we were impressed with those, so when we saw a KSU grad special, we jumped on it. Yes, they are a bit pricey - for $99 my daughter was supposed to get a 10 min session and 2 digital images. No one else was booked for more than 30 minutes after us, so my daughter got about 30 min worth of poses and had SO many shots to choose from. She did end up paying to get three additional images, but felt it was well worth it. The greenhouses are such a unique backdrop that can't be replicated elsewhere. The results speak for themselves. read more

Photographers did a great job with our family. Sets were beautiful and they did a great job helping our you children feel comfortable. Thanks again looking forward to another great holiday card! read more

Zebra Gallerie offered a contest for Valentine's Day highlighting seniors with a love story. I spent time perfecting the essay for my nominees. There was no follow up, no announcement of winners. I tried commenting on the post, messaging, and emailing - all no response. read more

Her work speaks for itself. I love it!! But I'm giving this a 4 star relative for the price relative to the results/overall user experience. But here's a few things to consider to determine if this photoshoot is right for you. The fee that you pay upfront is just the sitting fee. She has listed the digital fees online. It was clear to me her fee structure. But I guess it could be confusing for others. Or maybe she didn't use to list it. Sitting fee + all 40ish digitals will run about $400. You get 40 pics but really only use 5-8. The session is 10 mins. That leaves very little room for error or child meltdown. Only sign up if you're sure you kid can perform well on a photoshoot. She's not the best about communicating with the child/client. You put your child there and she just shoots. Not the most charismatic. But if the results are good, does it really matter? Maybe. If your child is is naturally photogenic then it doesn't matter. If your child needs more coaching to get the best pic, then I guess it might matter. As the parent, you'll want to do the lifting on communicating with your child to get your kid to smile, make sure hair is right, etc. Our session was on a weekday evening far far away in Acworth. You really have to make plans for this and take time off from work. But if you're the kind of person that's willing to spend half a grand on a couple of photos, this is a sacrifice you'll be willing to make. I really like the collection of props and dresses that are available for your child to pick from. Props and storyline are definitely the photographer's strength. 10 mins Just seems too quick. There weren't that many poses to do, but I felt pressure that we have to quickly move through all the poses. read more

DO NOT and I repeat, DO NOT use this place for you photos. 1. You will pay one price for only a 10 minute session (my session was only 5 minutes). She rushed us to get it done. 2. That is ONLY for 10 minutes. You will NOT get your pictures. 3. You will pay extra for any digital file. If you found her by an ad, it's not true. She misleads you by telling you that it will cost a certain amount, but you will not get your pictures unless you pay over $100 for one digital photo. Unless you want a rip off and a waste of money, than this is for you. This is a dirty business and she goes off of the fact that you "clicked agree" when booking that you understood that you are only paying for 10 minutes. But you have to agree in order to book. But there are no prices on the "consent". That is the only thing she will use against you if you try to get an explanation or a refund. If you want to comment or rate her,she took it off her Facebook... I wonder why?.. . This is the only place with reviews. DO NOT book with her. Save your money and find someone who isn't money hungry and misleads you just to pocket all the money. read more

No! Absolutely no! Take your money somewhere else. After paying for the session and showing up to the shoot, I found out AFTER in an email that if I wanted even one photo it would cost an additional $60 per image. It's a horrible pyramid scheme. read more

Drove 2 hours for a session and it felt like we were being herded like cattle. Rushed through getting dressed, rushed to the photographer. She barely communicated and quickly shot poses, not engaging with our child at all. Seems like they try to squeeze as many sessions as the can into one day. Won't return. read more

This was not a great experience. I paid $155 for both of my daughters. It was agreed for only a 10 minute session, which I understood. I felt completely rushed and the photographer did not help at all with trying to make my girls feel comfortable (it was 90 degrees out and I had a cranky 1 year old). I was under the assumption that $155 for 10 MINUTES would include at least a couple of the images. WRONG! She sends me packages to order digital images. $99 for 1 image and $199 for 5 images! Completely insane! I sucked it up and paid my $199 for 5 pictures. (Which totals me at $355). Aside from the ridiculous pricing, the lack of communication with the photographer was more than poor. This will be my first AND last session with this photographer. I'll also add that after I scheduled my pictures, (paid $155) she makes a fb post advertising the same session at $15. Complete scam. read more

Don't let the $$$$ confuse you on a high end experience. I have never been so disappointed in my life. I booked 1hr custom session for my Daughters 1st Birthday and drove over an hour to get there. My appointment was changed twice; once without my knowledge. I got my 1 week prior appointment reminder for 5pm instead of 10am. I immediately contacted ZG. For the next week literally until the evening before my daughter's session was spent going back in forth with ZG trying to get it straightened out (I booked 4/5 at 10am, agreed to move to 4/4 at 10am, moved to 5pm without my permission, finally settled on 4/4 at 11am) I was completely stressed out. They apparently moved my appointment for better lighting to do outside photos, they just failed to notify me of the change or why it was needed. I was unable to do 5pm so I agreed to move the entire shoot inside, which would "limit" things. The day of the session, it was a high of 63 but had only reach mid 50's with an overcast and chance of rain. We arrived early and parked in the designated area and wait to walk up. It was a private residence and when we round the corner to go to the main house we were met by Kelly and her assistant and directed us to a side stand alone garage. All that money and they had no indoor studio!!! They seriously had moved some storage props out of the garage into the driveway all stacked up to make room and set up a back drop inside. The provided wardrobe was 1 rack of clothes with about 6 outfits for her age. I had only brought the smash cake outfit with me as instructed. It was cold and the space was not inviting at all. They had 1 small personal heater and had to leave the garage door up for lighting. I had to change my baby in open cold garage. She cried the entire time and wanted me to hold her. She was scared and uncomfortable. We didn't even use up the whole hour. I just wanted to get her out of there. My whole purpose in booking was to get some beautiful over the top glam photos with a small cake smashing photos at the end just for the experience. The only photos that even turned out from out session were some of the smash cake. Things you should definitely know before booking: 1- I think mini sessions are the way to go...she can herd you in like cattle and spend 5-10 minutes with you in a pre-set theme so there is no confusion or expectation with words like custom or personal experience 2- Don't overpay...she has sales all the time on the sitting fees and she gets you with the digital prints. Your option to buy is 1,5, or all and the price points just lead you to buy them all anyway 3- Zebra presents as high end and exclusive. This is all just marketing. She only releases certain themes for certain days and limited slots. She creates the illusion of demand 4- They only communicate via email and social media. I gave her my number twice since there was so much confusion so she could just call, but they never did...what they did do was avoid direct questions...like is the studio in your home? Was my 10am appointment given to someone else or is it still available? 7 days to have a conversation that would have taken 5 minutes. 5- I received 116 digital images and literally about 10 were good. 6- When your images are ready you'll get an email to your online gallery. You have 3 days to purchase or you have to $25 to reactivate. Once you pay it take 24-48 hours to process and they will send you an email with link to download and take water mark off photo gallery. You have 3 days download onto your computer or disk or pay a $25 reactivation fee. This was also a horrible experience after doing as instructed it downloaded empty files. Contacted them and it was resent and tried again. Same thing happened again. She finally agreed to send a disk. Over a week went by no word, no disc. Contacted them again and she sent that day 7- When booking you enter a contract that completely benefits ZB--- ZB reserves all rights to the photos to use however they want and you are only issued copy rights. I somehow missed that fine print and my daughter was plastered all over FB 8- Bring your own outfits...saying she has a complete provided wardrobe is a far fetch I am sure in the perfect setting and happy baby/child she can produce beautiful work. This whole was a disaster and honestly with better communication, her being upfront with her facilities, and just rescheduling maybe some of this could have been prevented. read more

Photographer is combative and rude. Tried to book an appointment after seeing her ad that is misleading about the price. The ad did not specify that the price is only for the "sitting fee," and the actual pictures are not included. While trying to find this information out, she was condescending and defensive. We'll pass. read more

We love her mini sessions. She might seem pricey for a few minutes time, because you have to pay the sitting/booking fee then for the images. BUT, sometimes sitting fees go on sale, plus the way she captures the pictures are worth it. And I really don't need more than 1-2 pics anyway, because realistically that is all I use. read more

I signed up for a session and paid 6 months in advance via Paypal. The session was in a lavender field and apparently the weather was such that the field was not photo worthy. She emailed and said that we could apply our deposit to a future session. Problem is - no other session was the same cost or appealed to me. So I wasn't going to pay more for something I was less interested in. I emailed 7 times. SEVEN TIMES. I contacted via the website, I called the number and left a voice message. NO RESPONSE. ZERO. NOTHING. All I wanted was a refund for a session that was cancelled by the photographer. I tried to dispute my amount with paypal, but unfortunately if its over 6 months you cannot dispute. Horrible customer service and poor business management. I would absolutely NOT recommend this photog. There are many great ones out there and even if her pics are good, the service is horrible. read more

This place is awful! I scheduled my daughter's first birthday photo shoot for February 3rd on 12/23/16 and paid $245 through paypal. Never received a receipt or a confirmation on the photo shoot date! I have been emailing her on several occasions via company's website inquiring information and confirmation and never heard anything. As the last resort, I reached out on her Facebook page and messaged her there and still haven't heard anything there. February 3rd is fast approaching. So someone just took my $245 and never fulfills the service! Don't use this company!!! read more

We used Kelly to do a mini-Christmas session at the end of October and even with a fussy toddler she did an amazing job. The sets were beautiful. She was prepared with props to help get a smile out of a cranky baby that doesn't like her picture taken and they came out beautifully. She was extremely personable and did great with our munchkin! It took a bit longer then I expected to get the photos back but once you see the photographs and her other work it's obvious that she stays busy because her work is phenomenal! Her pricing was reasonable as well, I would recommend her again and again and I WILL be using her again in the future. read more

This photographer is hands down the most creative woman I have ever had the pleasure to use for my family's photos. She has captured some of the most important milestones of our lives in a beautiful, artistic fashion. She is wonderful with children and is magical in the way she can get great shots of sometimes fussy kids. Her editing is the best and her personality can't be beat. I recommend her services to friends all the time. I am so grateful we found her!!! read more

I loved the pictures that I saw online so I made two separate appointments. One for the fireflies picture and th other for the doll cake. The fireflies photo shoot went really well and I was so excited to see the pictures. When I got the link I downloaded it exactly how the instructions tell you to. Sadly my pictures were pixilated. I was using the pictures from the fireflies photo shoot for invitations for my daughters first birthday party. I tried to have the invitations with a picture from the photo shoot printed but they said there was an issue with the quality. I sent the invitation to three other places to be printed and had the same issue. I contacted the owner via Facebook and email multiple times. Every time the response was that I downloaded them wrong and there is nothing wrong with the pictures. So I downloaded them again and even had a friend download them just Incase it was my computer. After everything the quality of the pictures was the same. I contacted the owner again and was told she would send me a flash drive with the pictures on it and asked for my address. I gave her all of my information but never received the flash drive. I ended up canceling the dollcake session and lost my down payment. Oh well better than wasting money on crappy quality pictures after spending hundreds of dollars. read more
