Reviews

So, I’ve been meaning to do this for awhile but when I got asked (again) whether I can share any referrals or reviews, I decided that I’d better have a page ready to direct people to! A few are ‘formal’ reviews, and others are cut & pastes of e-mails, FB messages I’ve been sent. So…here it is, ta daaaah…my Love Letters page. ?

“I had this idea in my head of exactly how I wanted my wedding pictures to look yet when finding a wedding photographer I had the hardest time putting my vision into words…. I searched and searched for a photographer yet every one I found one, there was always that something I didn’t like. So one Sunday at church this incredibly sweet woman came up to say hi and to let us know she was a photographer and new to the area! Now mind you I am incredibly anal at times so I was hesitant at first until I found her on Facebook and saw her pictures…. They were so close to my vision! So long story short Shipra was hired in a heart beat! the process was amazing, we would chat on the phone and I would hang up feeling such joy and peace! Looking at these pictures I feel like Shipra had VIP access to my vision of the perfect wedding pictures. She literally captured our deep and passionate love for one another as well as our fun, love to laugh personalities. I can’t stop looking at the pictures and getting goosebumps and having a HUGE smile on my face when I see all that she captured. Shipra you made my dream come true…. our wedding pictures were the one thing I wanted to be perfect but honey you gave my perfect a brand new meaning. No lie we feel as though we robbed you! What we paid you was chump change compared to how awe struck we are by what you captured! You are SO talented and God has truly blessed you with an amazing gift! We love you and are so grateful God granted us not only an amazing friend but a talented and beautiful photographer! LOVE YOU!”

Shipra is not only a photagrapher, she is an artist. Her photos reflect the moment in all its intensity. She captures pure happiness in a flash ( no pun intended!) Most important she has an empathy with her clients that helps her to show their souls and not only their images. Shipra and her sister were enthusiastic , extremely professional, but above all had an attitude of joy around them ,making all of the party comfortable around them. They enjoy their work which translates directly into the final photos. We waited with enthusiasm for the album and we were not disappointed.
Thank You, Shipra for capturing such and important moment of Sole and Nico’s lives.

Beautiful Amazing Fabulous Shipra!
Your work has exceeded our wildest expectations. We feel so blessed and honored to have experienced your wonderful talent and skill. You really captured the joy of the evening and we could not have asked for more. It was so fantastic to see all those moments and all our friends and family. You were so right about the First Look, it was my favorite part of that day- so special.
Love!
Heidi and Gary
p.s. I hope we can work together again!

Hi Shipra!
The photos that you already posted are AMAZING and I can’t wait to see the rest. You truly captured the day and all the emotion! I love every single one.

These are absolutely amazing! Shipra, you are the greatest photographer of all time! Thank you for everything!
~ Adam (groom)

My mom called me today “you have got to get to some internet tonight!, Shipra has posted pictures!!” So here I am, sitting in Panera Bread blown away! I may be a little partial but I think these are the best pictures you have ever taken!! Ahhh I can’t get this cheesy grin off my face!
Your work is so amazing, I could not be more thrilled. I have to get home to Tim to show him these pictures.
Thank you so much for being so wonderful!!

Dear Shipra,  It was so nice meeting you.  It felt as if you were a daughter in the house.  Looking at you just made my day.  Everyone is talking about you that you were so bubbly and superb.  I tell you, you made my day just wonderful and my daughter was on top of the world.  I have no words to say how you made my feel.  You are number one in my book.  You were everywhere I turned and each time I was delighted to see you.  I shall tell everyone how wonderful you are and love to see you again sometime.  Wishing you all the best, God bless you and keep you happy and smiling.
With love, Sneha Patel (mom)

I’ve never looked at a photo of myself before, and said “yes! that’s exactly how it felt.” Thank you for crafting poetry out of the remarkable day. You’re the best photographer this camera-shy girl could have.’ ….Thanks so much to you and your sister for being such a wonderful presence on our wedding day. One of my favorite memories of the night is watching my nieces and new daughter dance around you in a wildly joyful circle. It was a pleasure to meet you both! I love the photos you added to the blog and look forward to seeing more of the magic you work.
……I just watched the slide show, and I just have to say — you fill my heart, Shipra! Thank you for capturing the day so beautifully and allowing us to relive it I will cherish these images forever.”

“An artist with a gift! We have had Shipra take many family pictures for us and we have always been so amazed with her work. She doesn’t try to stage shots that would simply blend into any hairstylist photo book. Shipra is able to capture authentic images that represent who we are as a family, and for that we are so grateful! Shipra is an artist with a gift, not some intern with bills to pay. Hire her, you won’t regret it! “

Shipra,
You worked your magic and did an absolutely phenomenal job! We can’t thank you enough for everything you did for us. We feel so honored to have been able to work with such an amazingly talented photographer, and can’t wait for all that is to come with the wedding! WE LOVE YOU!

“The entire shoot was such fun. Shipra is the most creative person in the world: she wove my themes and precious memories into everything. One of my favorite memories was the way she giggled with excitement every time she took that perfect shot. She kept us laughing and smiling.
Standing in a field of long, golden grass, being photographed with the man you love and plan to spend the rest of your life with, seems like a standard enough engagement shoot. Ours, however, was anything but ordinary and I owe it in large part to all the people that came together and helped make it happen. Without Shipra’s enthusiasm, encouragement, and tenacity, this shoot would not have been the same. It was her vision that took my idea of a piano in a field and turned it into a love story.”…

I couldn’t be more pleased to see my daughter look just as radiantly beautiful in these photos as she does in “real life.” You captured the true beauty of this sweet couple, whom I am proud to call my kids, both inside and out. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Shipra,
Ravi and I would like to thank you so much for being our wedding photographer. We couldn’t have been happier with the photos and your style. There was not one picture that we didn’t love and you captured every special moment. As the bride, I didn’t feel like you were intrusive or in my space and I didn’t even know you were there most of the time!
I was so amazed at the quick turn around time for the pictures and the DVD. As a bride I was dying to see the professional pictures and you got them to us quite fast. You were extremely professional and sweet and when we decide to start a family we will definitely have you do our family portraits.
Thank you again, Amanda

Dearest Shipra,
You are an absolute genius. You did a truly wonderful job and we loved theDVD and the pictures. The music you put for the DVD was amazing and it went really well with all the expressions. We absolutely loved it.
Ganesh kept saying that it was done so professionally and you have
amazing talent. I cried twice, I am just so happy…The albums are GORGEOUS!!!!!!! Love them! You are amazing!!

Incredible Photographer. We have had the honor of having Shipra Panosian take pictures of our family several times over the years. The pictures she takes are so much more than your average photo shoot. She is able to capture the heart and emotion of each person in an extraordinary way. Any picture that I have ever shown to a friend or displayed gets comment after comment of how incredible the picture is, no picture of Shipra’s is just casually browsed over, it is memorable. Shipra’s warm, loving and fun personality puts you so at ease. She will make a lasting impact on your life not only through her photography but through the experience of getting to know her at the shoot. I highly recommend Shipra Panosian photography. You will not be disappointed.

Hi Shipra,
Yahoo, we received the pictures – they are absolutely beautiful – thank you so much. Alyssa was so excited when she received the package, and even more thrilled when she saw the pictures…
Thank you again so much, Shipra, everything went perfectly – I am so glad we “found” you. I am very pleased with everything. Working with you has been great. I’ll keep you in mind for any future photo projects. I wish you and your family the best with everything.
Thanks, Donna

Entirely Unique.
There are few accessible photographers that take pictures in art form, Shipra Panosian is one of them. She brings out that magic twinkle in everyone. She is unparalleled. Look at her work, it speaks for itself.

Amazing! Shipra has taken pictures of my grandchildren, daughter and her family. Outstanding results, service and professional art-work. Her approach to photography is one that I have not experienced before. The photographs literally captured the essence of each subject. Please understand, if you are reading my comments trying to make a decision on finding the best photographer for your children, event, wedding, or business – stop looking and let the pictures of my twin granddaughters speak a thousand words. -Dave, CEO and amazed client of Shipra Panosian’s work!

Photography from the heart – Shipra has only done one photo shoot with my kids (yet!) but I know more are to come. I was thrilled with the beautiful candid photography; especially when you have a 7-yr old boy who only knows how to do “cheesy” smiles! Shipra captured the heart and soul of my two children and a year later, I still sit and gaze at the shots. They are by far the best photos of my children. I can’t wait for her to do a family shoot this summer. Shipra is professional, courteous and knows how to coax that certain smile & look out of your little ones. You won’t regret it and like me, a year later you’ll still be staring at the photos.
