Fran is an amazing photographer and goes the extra mile. She is very organized and easy to work with. She was great at making us feel comfortable and gave us great tips on how to pose in certain ways (or where to put our hands) to make the photographs look better. She also coached us on what to do as she was taking the pictures to give some variation in the photos and to make them look natural and not staged. The pictures were beautiful!

Our recent decision to book our daughter's Senior photo shoot was a no brainer after working with Fran back in 2020. It was another wonderful and fun experience. Fran is so engaging and easy-going, she immediately put my daughter at ease and the photo shoot was effortless and so enjoyable. The dilemma is choosing our favorites because they are all SO AWESOME! Fran delivers a high-quality product and is so easy to work with. We will continue to recommend Fran and we will use her again in the future. SHE IS FABULOUS!!!

Fran was a pleasure to work with! Her work is beautiful, and her back office support is top notch! We are so pleased with our son’s senior pictures- and will cherish them always. I hope to work with Fran again in the years to come.

Fran was wonderful to work with. She was friendly and kind, paid attention to details, and we didn’t feel rushed at all. Best of all, the photos from my daughter’s session came out beautiful!
