Elise creates photo magic. She did a photo shoot of my dog and me and was absolutely amazing. My six year old dog has always moved away from a camera. I had told Elise this even before the shoot. But she somehow brought out the very best in the dog and got her to "ham it up" in front of the camera. It was like she wanted to perform for this lady who instantly connected with the dog and kept her attention during the entire shoot. The photos she got were amazing and I have proudly shared them with many friends. I can offer only the highest praise for her talent, professionalism and amazing ability to catch "great moments" on film. Elise is a true professional. Thank you, Elise. Russ Dowd

Russ, thank you so much for such a great review. It was great to work with Hayden. She is so beautiful and when an animal trusts someone like that I know it's a big deal. I felt an instant connection with her and the images reflect that. Hope to see you both again!

Ms. Capillo while doing a photo shoot under her direction put me at ease from start to finish. Her use of words while giving direction was key for how my photos turned out. Elises eye for the use of background, lighting. Body language, facial expressions and the right clothing believe it or not played a critical role in the creation of the moment. Looking at my photos I couldn't even believe it was me I was looking at. My business and career benefitted greatly in the use of my photos in brochures, business cards, website and more. Thank you again Elise for your gift of photography, my life has been enhanced in an incredible way. Robert Bethea RJB Sports Consulting

Elise did my first photo shoot I ever did for my Blog, www.KristiMcGrath.com, I felt so comfortable with her shooting me, she taught me the basics of modeling and couldn't have been happier with the photos! I also hired her to do my son's senior portraits this year, those pictures came out so fabulous I actually cried viewing them! Well, Elise and I cried, bunch of softies!

Any photographer can just take a picture; Elise on the other hand makes her pictures come alive. She has an eye for making breathtaking images. She made me feel comfortable and gives excellent directions for the perfect shot. As they say, “a picture is worth a thousand words”. Elise made me look and feel live a million bucks!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Reasonable rates that typically include shoot time plus images, also a print option.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to schedule a call to learn more about what your needs and ideas are for your photos and will follow up with a final quote based on the project. The shoot then gets booked and there is a photography agreement emailed for e-signature and a 50% retainer to book the shoot with link sent via Paypal.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My education started very young with my photographer father, but my education continued later where I studied photography at Worcester State College. My education continues to this day where I collaborate with and learn from other photographers in photography groups and also online workshops. I am trained in Lightroom, Portrait Pro and Portrait Pro Body.
