PHOTOGRAPHER TESTIMONIALS

What the Pros Say

A Photographer's Eye Knows Quality

When professional photographers step in front of my camera, they expect more than just a great portrait. They expect exceptional lighting, expert posing, and a level of artistry that stands out. I'm honored to have captured fellow creatives who trust my vision, experience, and dedication to delivering nothing but the best.

Words from Industry Professionals: 

Brandy Moton, M.Photog., Cr.Photog., CPP

Working with Denise was an unforgettable experience. She brought an incredible level of professionalism, creativity, and heart to my Craftsman ceremony portraits. From the moment we began, she made me feel seen, celebrated, and completely comfortable in front of the camera. Denise has a true gift for finding beauty in every moment. She chose unique, stunning locations that perfectly captured the spirit of the day and brought my portraits to life. Her posing direction was thoughtful and flattering, and somehow, she knew exactly how to highlight my personality and style in every frame. I walked away from our session feeling confident, radiant, and truly beautiful. What sets Denise apart is her ability to not just take a photo, but to tell a story. She captured more than just images—she captured emotion, pride, and joy. Her passion for her craft and care for her clients shine through in everything she does. If you want a photographer who will honor your moment and elevate your memories, Denise is that person. I couldn’t be more grateful.

Molly Beale, C.P.P.

Denise was so agreeable to getting up at the crack of dawn so she could photograph me doing what I love most…shooting sunrise! I’m SO glad I have these portraits, and can’t wait to use them on my marketing materials! After sunrise on the beach, we headed to a super cute candy shop that we had all to ourselves! To say I’m in LOVE with the portraits she made of me there would be an understatement! She knew just how to pose and light me to make me look my very best! I also felt extremely comfortable with how we decided, pre-session, for me to dress. I’m not fancy, and am pretty basic. Denise picked out just the thing that looked like me and I was comfortable in! I could go on and on, but will just say, if you’re considering portraits with Denise, DO IT! You won’t regret it!

Sarah Lindsay, Photographer

Working with Denise is a one of a kind experience! Walking into her studio, she immediately makes you feel at ease and like you’ve been best friends for decades. She is also an expert at lighting and posing you in the most flattering ways. Getting headshots done by Denise was the best decision and I use the headshots she took on literally everything!

Bertha Bishop, C.P.P.

Denise is such a professional. All you need to do is show up. She will take care of the rest and make you feel and look like a million bucks! From lighting to posing and everything in between, the results speak for themselves. Having her take my portrait was truly an awesome experience!
