"As a mom herself, Elena has a gift for working with children and made what could have been a tough experience for our cautious and photo averse toddler super fun and low key. She put us all at ease and captured beautiful and special moments of our family that we will always cherish. She was efficient, communicative, and quick with sharing the final photos. We loved working with her and will absolutely do it again!"— Emily

“Working with Elena was so comfortable and I truly felt beautiful while getting my picture taken. I’m usually afraid of the camera but she made me feel happy and confident throughout the session! I love my headshots and I’m glad I could actually get them done at an affordable price! Please run, don’t walk to get your pictures done by her. You won’t regret it!”— Bethany

“ELENA ROCKS. My first and only fear was my hair, skin, and complexion being captured in a way that was authentic to me. I've had horror stories of being lightened, smoothed over to where I don't look like me anymore. You don't EVER have to worry about that with Elena. She created and curated a safe space, and even educated me on parts of me I'm insecure about (my eyes!) I reccomend that everyone works with Elena and especially performers of color with any insecurities about this process. Now I know more about myself, have fabulous headshots, and they look like ME. Thank you queen!”

"Our family hired Elena to shoot our first family photos with a toddler. We couldn't have asked for a better experience with a more talented photographer! Elena made things extremely easy in so many ways. She brings her humor, empathy, and incredible nature with children to elicit truly fun experiences that lead to great photos. On top of being easy to work with, she brings tremendous technical know-how to capture both candid moments and poses with the best lighting and overall composition. We had a blast and know that you will too!"— Meg and Ben
