She has a knack for working with young children and their families. Helena pulled out the most beautiful smile and images of my daughters true self. My daughter, now 8, doesn't always want her picture taken but she connected with Helena immediately. She even asked if we could do another photo session. Helena has a warm, welcoming and calm professional demeanor. She knows how to let the kids be themselves while gently guiding them to make sure she gets the shots that are best. The images we received are priceless. They are gorgeous, and I'm so thankful we met and worked with her. "
Helena creates beautiful images and is a pleasure to work with! She is very easy-going and creative. She took beautiful photos of my daughter and they had such a fun session. She was fantastic at getting a 5 year old to engage with the camera. I would not hesitate to recommend Helena, in fact I already have many times. Several friends have had her take photos of their children and have been thrilled with the results."
We've had Helena take my family's photos three separate times--and she handles it all beautifully and with a smile--including my toddler, baby, and dog--and on one of the times, also my parents, sister's family (with her preschooler and baby). She's even managed the impossible--the most beautiful picture of my then-not-yet-sitting-up six month old being hugged and kissed by my then-almost two year old. "
I've had two photo sessions with Helena and cannot recommend her enough. She is amazing with kids, including my rambunctious 3 year old, wrangled a family of seven for group shots, is quick and efficient with getting proofs back after the session, and is an absolute delight to be around. Everyone who sees her photos comments on them and I just love them! Thanks Helena!"
My sons can be slow to warm up to people, but they immediately took to Helena and were happy to be spending time with her. She blended into the energy of our family with ease, capturing both spontaneous moments as well as setting up some poses, without it ever feeling forced. Even in a short amount of time, Helena got several heirloom quality shots. I know that her skills and passion for photography are going to put her in great demand. I'm so happy to have had the privilege of working with her and look forward to scheduling our next shoot in the coming months."
