We had such a wonderful experience with our photographer...We ended up purchasing the entire gallery (we loved them all!), but we like that there was an option to just select ones we wanted. We will definitely be using this service again. Thank you Shoott Team!

We had a very wonderful time with our photographer! She made us feel so comfortable during the session... She assisted us for the posture, the location, and overall, it was a great experience. Thanks to her and Shoott to make this possible.

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!
