Hi ladies,

I am looking for a boudoir photographer in the Sacramento area. Does anyone have any recommendations? If so, please let me know! I'd also like to get an idea of the cost!

Thanks!

If you're looking for a photographer in the Reno/Tahoe area, look no further. Courtney Aaron (http://www.courtneyaaron.com) photographed our August 2012 wedding, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. We had been scoping out photographers in the Tahoe area for a while, and she was the most forthcoming, responsive person we worked with. We loved her style of photography and the flexibility of her pricing options based on email and web information, but we knew we needed to have a photographer that fit us personally.

We had scheduled a week of appointments booked with various vendors, including Courtney, so it was a packed week... but as soon as we met her, we knew we wanted her to be our photographer. We met with her on a Tuesday, got a great feeling from her, but wanted to follow through on our other appointments as well. By the time we called her on Thursday to confirm that we wanted to book her for our wedding date, she had already scouted our location, gotten some feedback about our possible caterer (who was new to wedding catering) from a wedding planner friend, and given us some pricing options that worked for us. This was even before she knew we were going to go with her!

Between booking her and our wedding day (about 10 months), Courtney checked in with us several times, even though we knew from her blog that she was keeping very busy - these were all little touches that made us feel special! Before our wedding day, Courtney made a point to find out who all of our VIPs were, what their relationship to us was, and some fun little stories about us to get to know us better. We were not able to do an engagement session with her, so she found other ways to make us more comfortable with her being around us on a stressful day.

On the day of our wedding, Courtney showed up early, checked in with the wedding party right away, and then went to work! She knew the names of our wedding party and VIPs, and made a point to find out right away who those folks were (and remembered who everyone was!). While photographing the bride getting ready, Courtney noticed that we were struggling a little because we didn't have professionals helping with the details, and she jumped right in with suggestions and bits of non-photography wedding expertise. Throughout the evening, she was always around for the "moments," but was never obtrusive in any way. In fact, most of the time, we didn't even realize she was there! She made sure the wedding moments were being captured without ever making us feel like we were on camera, posing, etc. (except for the purposely posed family photographs, of course!) She was extremely friendly and engaging towards our guests, and a number of people commented to us afterwards about how much they liked her. My dad even asked if we planned to stay friends with her

We have such a rave review of Courtney, and we haven't even talked about her photographs yet... which of course are amazing! We wanted to have the family photographs, of course, but we really wanted her to capture the atmosphere of the party with candid shots--which she definitely did. We love all of the incredible memories she caught on camera, and have loved looking through them and sharing them with our friends and family. Her turnaround time is also pretty quick, which we liked.

All in all, Courtney was our favorite vendor for our wedding, and the easiest choice we made. We have already recommended her to others, and hope/plan to use her services again in the future!
