First, I want to stress that my experiences are unique to me and I'm not trying to generalize. Over the past 20+ years, I've had the opportunity to work with some great and not so great photographers. As a promotional model in the past, working trade shows, you need to keep an updated portfolio to book gigs. I would shoot with photographers, get a CD lol with 100+ images and hope that 2 or more would work for my portfolio. Most of the time, I could find a few that I really liked and I can still appreciate them today. Then there are those that never did a thing for me, and I discarded. Fast forward about 20 years later.... Now in my professional career, I've needed to get updated corporate photos for quite some time but was ok with silly selfies like the one on my google profile lol. Ok, so it was time to get serious... I then asked my broker for a referral and was given a name and number. Instead of me calling this guy, I googled the agent who he had photographed to see her image on her website, and I have to say that I wasn't impressed. She was very washed out and cloudy almost like a ghost. I then scrolled through all her staff photos assuming it was the same photographer and started to get that Kmarty vibe. Well, that wasn't going to work for me, so I started to search out photographers on google and came across tons of Kmarty JcPennyish photography studio vibes out there. Lots of bad lighting and cheesy poses. OMG! Maybe, I'm just used to better quality than what I was finding in today’s market. Then, I came across Light Images. Scrolled through her corporate images and I was sold! I was also praying that I could afford to work with her because her photography was incredible. Perfect lighting, no cheesy poses. Sign me up! lol I immediately called her, and she was pleasant on the phone, completely professional and I was able to coordinate a shoot that was convenient for me. Everything was as she had said on the phone from my arrival to setup in her studio. She had everything ready to go and the whole process was quick. She had such great energy and I really enjoyed working with her. Then, the moment of truth... After the shoot, sitting with Susan as she pulled up the photos. I was over the moon! Wow! What a relief to see my images in perfect lighting, perfect everything. It was so difficult for me to weed out anything. lol She is AMAZING!!!! In the end, I ended up buying more than I had planned but it was so worth it... Today is Sunday and I didn't expect to hear from Susan, but she texted me to say my images were ready and she needed my email. Shortly after, I checked my email and I have to say that I was moved to tears... I had a good cry, but they were tears of joy, gratitude, and appreciation... I was overwhelmed by the quality of her work. To see myself so beautifully in a way I haven't been able to really see in the mirror, but Susan was able to capture the essence of my beauty through her camera lens. Susan is a gifted artisan and if I didn't share all my thoughts and experience, I would feel greedy! I honestly believe that if you don't trust Susan to take your photos, you're only cheating yourself. Seriously! She is the best and I can't stop raving about her and my experience. I plan to do more shoots with Susan with my family and boyfriend. My only regret is that I didn't find her in my earlier years. Thank you, Susan! You are a miracle worker and I'm so appreciative to of had the opportunity to work...
Read moreSusan Gomez at Light Images brings out the very best of "you." Throughout the years I have had both professional head-shots and family photos taken, and her work is excellent and second to none. Susan is a photographer, and a seasoned professional and not to be confused with pics or snaps. Her approach to every photo she takes is a culmination of expertise and a passion for her craft, and it shows in her work. I have been very blessed to have some of the last photos of a loved one taken in her studio a few years back, and I will always cherish those captured memories of that day we sat in her studio. It was such a fun day, and although he said he wasn't photogenic, Susan was able to bring out the very best of him, and the photos came out brilliant! My daughter who was a model at that time also had her portfolio photos taken by Susan, and with the various backgrounds, it was a WOW factor in the fantastic prints for my daughters Zed Card. I can't say enough about her compassion and craft. If you want the very best professional photos for work, social media, events, special occasions or family portraits Susan Gomez at Light Images is the perfect fit. With location Photography and Boudoir as well, her portfolio is well-rounded and a great value. Thank you, Susan, for all the Happy...
Read moreI don’t even know how to start with how amazing my boudoir photography session was with Susan. First was the booking, she is the only one out of a half a dozen photographers that actually wanted to chat on the phone in advance. This was my first indication that she was the right person, she made me feel at ease with her and the process, which to me is important if I’m going to be naked in front of someone. We communicated via text to confirm and she provided directions. Once I arrived I was welcomed in and immediately felt at ease with her and the studio space. There was a private and very clear area for me to change. Susan assisted in selecting what outfits and shoes to wear, again adding to easing any nerves. We did a few backdrops and outfit changes which gave me a ton of images to chose from. She made me feel beautiful and never self conscious while guiding me in the poses. We had almost 90 images that were amazing. We narrowed it down to 10 which was difficult but Susan helped me make smart decisions, no overselling nothing pushy at all. I will be back again for...
