Working with Thally was an incredible experience. The photos came out absolutely beautiful, like something straight out of a movie. She made the entire process so easy by guiding us through each pose in a way that felt natural and effortless. What really stood out was how well she knew both of our angles; every shot highlighted us at our best without us even having to think about it. The whole session felt relaxing because she just knew what to do, there was no awkwardness or uncertainty, just a smooth flow from one moment to the next. Her professionalism and eye for detail made the experience not only stress-free but genuinely enjoyable. We couldn’t be happier with the results and the experience.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Thally for my wedding on July 18, 2025, and I cannot recommend her enough. From start to finish, her communication was clear, consistent, and thoughtful, which made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. She arrived well ahead of time on the day of the wedding and even shared her location with me to ensure we could connect easily. Our ceremony was intimate, with just seven people including myself and my husband, and Thally made every person feel seen and valued. When there was a slight delay before the ceremony began, Thally used that time efficiently by capturing candid and meaningful moments of our guests including myself. One of the highlights for me was seeing how naturally she connected with my husband’s family, especially his 8-year-old brother, speaking to him in Spanish and helping him feel comfortable in front of the camera. Thally is not only a talented photographer but a genuinely kind and professional individual. I would choose her again in a heartbeat for any future photography needs.

Thally was amazing! I hired her to do a secret proposal pic and photo shoot afterwards. She was extremely responsive and went out of her way to do scouting trips and make sure they were in the right location and captured it exactly how I wanted. They made the photo shoot so much fun afterwards and put a lot of care and effort into the entire process. The pictures also came out beautiful!
