“Emily is the absolute BEST family photographer we’ve ever encountered. She photographed our young family both before and after the birth of our second child and every picture was a gift, a beautifully captured representation of our personalities, relationships, and love for each other. Emily has an incredible way of helping others to feel comfortable while on the opposite side of her lens (including our toddler and puppy!) and a true talent for capturing candid moments in just the right light and focus. Emily’s photos are ones that we will treasure forever, and we very much look forward to our next family photography session with her!”

“I have used Emily twice now for family photos and couldn’t recommend her enough! She was extremely patient with our two year old, and captured our family perfectly. The pictures are fun and light. Will use her again.”

Oh my gosh, what a fabulous shoot I had with Emily!  I had spent months doing the branding and preparation and knew from the moment I met her that she was the one - that she had the heart and vision to capture me and how I wanted to present my brand. The day of the shoot was perfect. She and her team were organized and efficient with the many outfits and setups. She just brought all I had envisioned to life seamlessly. And then I couldn't stop smiling when I saw all the images! I highly recommend Emily O'Brien Photography!

We have had 4 family photo shoots with Emily over the years and every one of them has been amazing! It is impossible NOT to get all the images because they are all amazing. Emily is an amazingly skilled photographer/artist. We have always been highly satisfied by her work. She is also incredibly patient and thoughtful navigating young children - we just love her and look forward to her photographing our family for years to come! Thank you Emily!

Emily is absolutely wonderful to work with -- she's a talented photographer, professional, and will get beautiful pictures to you right on schedule. She took professional headshots for my colleague and me and they are by far the best headshots we've ever had! Highly recommend.

Emily is over the top professional and extremely talented behind the lens. She did branding photos for me and captured the essence of who I am and what I wanted my new brand to represent. She is kind, fun and made me feel comfortable in front the the camera. I loved working with Emily so much that I recently hired her again to do a family photo shoot with us. She somehow got my teenage boys to laugh, smile, have fun AND enjoy taking pictures with their parents! Emily YOU are pure magic! I can't wait to see what you create for us and know the only difficulty will be trying to choose from all of your amazing photos. Keep rocking it!
