Dorothy S. says, "Kai was very professional but still made the entire experience very fun!! He played our favorite music during the shoot and even took some extra candids of me tying my Dads tie which is now one of my favorite pictures. I'm sure I will cherish these pictures for years to come! Thank you Kai!"See more

I loved working with Hoag Studio's. Claudia was very professional and punctual. She was also flexible and suggested things that boosted my look for my photos. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for great headshots! Her studio is equipped with fancy lights, high tech equipment, and wonderful décor for prompts.

I'm not photogenic and haven't taken a photo of myself in 7 years. I was dreading getting headshots but I needed them. I just wanted to "get it over with". Key Captures is at the top of his game. He made me feel comfortable and at ease immediately, I thoroughly enjoyed the photoshoot and loved the results. I highly recommend Key Captures and will be using them as my only photographer.

Can't say it enough- Adam is FANTASTIC! His studio is at his home, which cuts down costs- and he has great equipment. He understands light and he made me look my absolute best. He was super friendly and easy-going and made me feel at ease. What is usually an awkward experience for me turned out to be easy and fun! And, they're the best headshots I've ever had done. Thanks, Adam!

I first met Adam in 2015, and have worked with him another time this past year. The fact that I am still in touch with him should tell you how much I appreciate his work. ;) My review from 2015: Here is what I needed before connecting with Adam: 1. Professional head-shot for career-related opportunities 2. Reasonable price (I am on a budget as a student!) 3. Somewhere close to where I live Here is how Adam met all of these needs: 1. Adam offered a perfect package option 2. ...at a great price.... 3. ...right by where I live! Here is how Adam went above and beyond: 1. Rather than touching up one headshot (which is all I need at this point), he offered to touch up two. 2. He is a responsive professional (he got all the photos to me the same day of the photo shoot) 3. Quality was great!

I hired Anisha a couple of weeks ago for a set of professional headshots. She was very efficient at contacting me with details and confirming our appointment, and within a week after the shoot I had already received my CD of photos from her in the mail. She sent me many photos from our shoot, for the price that other Thumbtack photographers were charging for one single photo, which I really appreciated. It was important to me to be able to select the right look when all was said and done, not just end up with the photo that she thought was best. So, thumbs up for that. She was kind enough to offer me some water when I got to her house as well as some time to double-check my makeup and hair before we got started. During the shoot, she adjusted my hair slightly to help get a better shot at various times, which I thought was good of her to do. My one complaint about that was that I thought my hair looked unlike me in most of the photos; I would have liked some coaching from her asking for a little bit of natural movement or the occasional head toss to make both my hair and my facial expressions seem more real and relaxed. She works very quietly; I would have appreciated more direction and more friendly banter to help put me at ease. I didn't know that I should have asked for this, but I did not receive any guidance from her ahead of time about what to wear (solid colors or not, nice pants or not, change of clothes or not), and it turned out that the photos showed far more of my shirt and my pants than I had planned on, and I didn't know what color the backdrop was going to be -- if I had known I would probably have chosen a different outfit. The photos turned out somewhat darker than I would have liked, but there were two or three that I really loved. And that's all I needed. She seemed to do a nice job with the editing, as well. The best part of the whole experience was that Anisha knew that I am a therapist, and so she suggested that we take some shots on her very chic-looking couch, to better reflect the look I was going for. I appreciated the thoughtfulness and personal attention that went into that idea. Overall, I have some nice photos, but was a little bummed with the experience itself, and I left feeling self-conscious. If you've gotten professional photos taken before, though, and know what questions to ask, you may be more satisfied with the process.
