Connie and her team were amazing! Everything from preparing for the portrait session to purchasing was easy. I was provided with lots of information and help to make sure our clothing, hair, makeup etc would look great. The day was perfect. Connie was amazing with my three kids. They felt so comfortable with her and she got the most amazing photos of the kids and family. The process to preview the photos was a ton of fun. We got to go through all the photos and narrow them down to our favorites and discuss any edits. The entire process was easy, stress free, and a lot of fun. You will not be disappointed! – Shannon |
Connie’s work is unique, vivid and beautiful. Our favorite part of our experience was to see our daughter blossom before our eyes. She grew in her beauty and grew in her confidence with Connie’s coaching throughout the entire session. –Mary O |
Connie’s work is of exceptionally high quality. She is aware of so many extra details that make her portraits beautiful and unique. Connie was focused on bringing out my personality. I loved having the professional hair and makeup done! Connie is a master at giving clear instructions on how to pose so that the photos look great. Her lighting was perfect. Connie is genuinely interested in you and who you are, so she can capture your real personality. –Deb |
I highly recommend Mintz Portrait Studio. Connie took our family portraits outdoors and spent time before the appointment scouting out the best spot and time of day to do the photo shoot. She also offered suggestions for coordinating our wardrobe and showed us some examples. During the photo shoot, she came up with some posing options that made the best of the light and location. Connie did a great job engaging my sons so they were relaxed in the pictures. I am very happy with our session and prints and recommend Connie for any of your portrait needs. – Kari F. |
