Kind words

Three years later, and I'm still amazed by Joanna. Every session, she somehow tops the last one. She creates a laid-back and fun atmosphere that helps my chaotic family settle down, no easy feat with little kids! As the photographer in our family, I'm rarely in photos, but with Joanna, it's hard to choose just one to frame. Her attention to detail shows she truly cares.

Joanna photographed our family of 12 during a vacation in Florida and did a wonderful job capturing everyone's personalities. The candid shots turned out to be some of our favorites. I highly recommend Joanna if you're looking for a photographer, she was a pleasure to work with!
