“George & Eleana are super professional and accommodating. They have so much patience with children. My 2 year old was not too happy to take pictures, George & Eleana worked with us and our schedule to find a time and place that would be more comfortable for my 2 year old. They brought props that made my son smile and get the greatest pictures. Great quality, great service and family oriented. Thank you guys, you guys are awesome!”

“Im currently 8 months pregnant and this past weekend chose Ellies Heartstrings to capture these beautiful moments of my pregnancy and I made the BEST DECISION EVER! This was the first photo shoot my boyfriend and I have ever done so we were kind of nervous at first but as soon as we got there we were instantly welcomed and felt so comfortable. First, they are so professional and answer texts/phones instantly! As soon as we arrived they asked what made us comfortable and I answered music and they turned on my favorite songs for me just so my nerves could go away. Their space was super clean and comfy. Once it was time for pictures they helped me with my poses and always made sure I was okay (because Im 8 months pregnant.) I got my pictures emailed to me super quick and loved how they came out. Will definitely recommend them to anyone who is in need of amazing photographers! Cant wait to go back for my newborn photo shoot once my son is born! Extremely satisfied customer!”

“Ellies Heartstrings were so understanding of my wants to not feel "posey" and took into consideration inspiration that I had found on pinterest. They allowed us to pick the music to set the mood and not feel awkward since this was the first time EVER my fiance and I had done a photoshoot together. They were funny and a blast to be around and generous! I would totally recommend! Great price, great vibes, great all the way around!”
