We used Shoott for my son’s Senior portraits. It was a great experience, we will totally use Shoott again in the future! So easy to schedule, great photographer, fast turn on the photos and a super-simple website to navigate.

Hoboken @ Pier 13, New Jersey

Shoott was incredibly easy to use. It took no more than 30 seconds to book a session and then day of our photographer texted us exactly where to meet. Not only did she fully understand the vibe of our photos but was able to wrangle a baby and a dog to get fantastic photos!

Booking was simple and convenient, especially being that there is no charge up front... We loved so many of our photos that we essentially had no option but to purchase the whole gallery!

Easy and simple booking. Our photographer was wonderful and so understanding of taking photos with three young kids. Quality of photos and editing was excellent. Definitely plan to book again with Shoott again!

We are incredibly awkward people, but our photographer made us feel pretty comfortable for our shoot. The process and the low-pressure of not needing to purchase anything until we saw the shots was just what we were looking for!
