The process couldn’t have been easier. I was a little concerned how the result might turn out, primarily due to the session being shot at dusk in my shady back yard.  I needn’t have worried.  We couldn’t have been happier with the process or the result.

Lara is a great photographer! Lara’s so easy to work with, fun, professional, creative and gets the job done—no matter what it takes! I highly recommend her.

You’ve been fabulous every single time! My favorite thing has been your flexibility with the whole picture taking process.  If the kids are feeling shy, you are able to draw them out and get fabulous pics. I also loved the time you asked what they were interested in, and told me to bring their bikes. I never would have thought of that! You have a really great style and you put the kids at ease. My favorite pics of my kids are the ones you have taken-honest!

Our family highly recommends Lara Grauer Photography. Lara is an extremely talented, professional and wonderful person to work with. We have used many photographers in the past (before finding Lara) for our family pictures. We found many other photographers seemed rushed, pushed their own ideas on us and sometimes made for a stressful photo shoot. Lara, on the other hand, takes her time while striking a nice balance between giving ideas of her own while listening to and following through with her clients’ wants. She is a pleasure to work with and is a photographer I highly recommend.

When we first hired Lara to photograph our young child, our main concern (like most parents) was that our son would not cooperate.  Our concerns were immediately put to rest, and not because our child was overly-cooperative.  Lara encourages the children to be themselves, and manages to capture their true personalities while doing it.  We have hired Lara several additional times and have always been completely thrilled with the results.  When hiring Lara, the only problem you will have is running out of wall space.

What a treasure! Working with Lara is a treat. To have someone dedicated to your family’s photos for a few hours is very special and well worth it compared to a trip to a mall portrait studio. Lara was interested in creating beautiful photos and cared about the results. She was flexible with my two-year-old son, who was very worried when Lara walked into the surf to take our picture!
