Client Reviews



Mother and baby in matching yellow outfits pose on the beach for their free outdoor photoshoot
Yvonne

Alviso Marina County Park, San Diego

Flawless process and I absolutely love our pictures. Our photographer made the shooting experience really care-free and easy and we had such a variety of shots--way more than I was expecting for a 30-minute session. Overall a great experience!

Shannon

Eastern Market, Detroit-Ann Arbor

Booking was simple and convenient, especially being that there is no charge up front... We loved so many of our photos that we essentially had no option but to purchase the whole gallery!

Mimi

Hoboken @ Pier 13, New Jersey

Shoott was incredibly easy to use. It took no more than 30 seconds to book a session and then day of our photographer texted us exactly where to meet. Not only did she fully understand the vibe of our photos but was able to wrangle a baby and a dog to get fantastic photos!

Harborwalk, Boston

We had such a wonderful experience with our photographer...We ended up purchasing the entire gallery (we loved them all!), but we like that there was an option to just select ones we wanted. We will definitely be using this service again. Thank you Shoott Team!

Leia

East Bay - Piedmont Park, SF Bay

The access to beautiful professional photos that your are providing is amazing. We had a fantastic first experience. The entire process could not have been easier. I was hoping for 1-2 good photos of us with our busy toddlers and we bought the entire gallery. Thank you!

I was honestly shocked by how good of an experience we had. No booking fee? Only paying for the photos you want? Sounds WAY too good to be true... We are SUPER impressed, and were so, so happy with our photographer!
