I cannot RAVE enough about this wonderful photographer. We asked for a high fashion shoot, and she MORE than delivered. She made us feel so comfortable, and was not only professional, but also recommended a reliable (and incredibly talented) hair and makeup artist as well. She was great about directing us for shots that she knew featured us, and knew how to bring out our personalities with her photography eye. It helped to have someone who had such professional work represented in the public, so I knew her work would showcase what I was looking for in a first maternity shoot for our child, but I am so grateful for how the photos turned out to remember our firstborn!Thank you again Ella Bar! We hope to use your services again in the very near future! Highly recommended for all your maternity, family portrait, and high fashion needs!

Wow, thank you so much for your incredibly kind and enthusiastic words! I am truly touched by your appreciation and satisfaction with the high fashion maternity shoot. It was a joy to work with you and capture such a special moment in your journey. I'm thrilled to hear that you found the experience comfortable and that my recommendations for a hair and makeup artist were helpful. Your compliments about my photography eye and ability to bring out personalities mean the world to me. Knowing that the photos will hold cherished memories of your firstborn is a privilege beyond words. I am genuinely grateful for your trust in my work. I would be absolutely delighted to work with you again in the near future for any of your photography needs. Thank you for considering me highly recommended for maternity, family portraits, and high fashion shoots. Sending my warmest wishes to you and your growing family! - Ella

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ellas for the 2nd time, and I can't express how thrilled we are with the results! Her creativity and attention to detail truly shine through in every shot. Ella captured moments I didn't even realize were happening, making the final collection of photos a delightful surprise. Her ability to make everyone feel comfortable during the shoot was remarkable, resulting in such artistic, modern, classy and sophisticated shots that truly went beyond expectations once again. I'm beyond impressed with her professionalism and the way she effortlessly turned fleeting moments into timeless memories. If you're looking for a photographer who can transform any occasion or your family into a visual masterpiece, look no further!

I will start by saying, dont think twice Ella is the best photographer for your photo shoot !Its my 4th pregnancy and I never done maternity shoot before, I always felt insecure while pregnant and thought that I will not enjoy the experience.This time I know I have to capture the moment. with my 3 kids and husband it was important for me to create a lasting reminder of this special time in our family.I was very scared. That the kids will not Cooperate , that I will feel uncomfortable and ugly, and many more negative thoughts.But I know Ella does incredible work!I saw her website and I got so many recommendations so I know Im in good hands.At the session she made me feel so comfortable and her vibe was so calm it affected the kids. We all had so much fun! The kids wanted to go overtime and so do I.Ella captured so many beautiful shoots of me and my family and I'm so thankful for her!This is how it feels like when a photographer really loves his job!!Cant wait for our next session with our baby girl !

During the shoot, I provide full posing and creative direction so you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. After the session, your images are delivered through a private online gallery where you can view and select your favorites for professional retouching.
