I can't say enough good things about my experience with Opie! She is professional, fun to talk to, and SO talented. My photo shoot was a breeze- she talked me through poses and made sure to ask what types of shots I wanted. My photos turned out amazing : I would book her again in a heartbeat!

I can't describe enough how wonderful my experience was working with this photographer. We did a full maternity shoot and I was blown away by the beauty and variety of the gown selection. Every outfit made me feel more like a Queen; I wish I could wear those gowns everyday! Opie is a pro, makes you feel comfortable and knows what to do with the camera. I highly recommend this photographer along with the partnering makeup artist who made me look flawless!

Such a great experience, especially being pregnant and feeling vulnerable, Opie showered me with compliments and made me feel super confident while shooting the photos. From our very first communication, I could tell this was a photographer I could trust and rely on to be on time, honest with their work and someone who would put forth their best effort! 10/10!

Amazing! Opie is an absolute pro and an artist. She provides so much info ahead of time to help you prepare, the studio is amazing, and everything runs really smoothly. The pictures turned out even better than I'd hoped. They're gorgeous! I shopped around a lot prior to booking and I'm so glad that I did. If you want a 5 star experience, classy and beautiful photos, Opie is your girl!

The best photographer that I have ever been with. The makeup artist was very professional and detail-oriented; she was there for me and willing to satisfy my wish during the makeup processing - Thank you, Tori, for making me look gorgeous! And Opie, the photographer, was incredibly talented. She knew what she was doing, was very aware of details, and was kind in posing me for the best shots. The photos were ready in a lightning-fast way. I do recommend and may go back there again.

What an amazing experience everything from beginning to end was so easy. I loved that prior to the shoot I received several incredibly helpful YouTube tutorials on what to expect, what to bring, how to find the studio etc. Once there I was put right at ease by the excellent make up artist. I was a little nervous and she chit-chatted me right out of my nerves and put me at ease while giving me a flawless look.

The experience of the shoot itself was everything I would have wanted! Opie showed me exactly what to do for every single shot and walked me through each shot step by step. The dressing room was complete with snacks, bottled water, and everything! I basically left the studio feeling like a super model. I'm 43 and I wanted to do this for years. Growing up my mom always had a beautiful boudoir photo of herself hanging in her master bedroom and I loved it. Sometimes we just need to see ourselves through someone else's eyes and when I look at the photos I feel beautiful!
