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.

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!

I was honestly shocked by how good of an experience we had. No booking fee? Only paying for the photos you want? Sounds WAY too good to be true... We are SUPER impressed, and were so, so happy with our photographer!

Flawless process and I absolutely love our pictures. Our photographer made the shooting experience really care-free and easy and we had such a variety of shots--way more than I was expecting for a 30-minute session. Overall a great experience!
