“What an amazing group of professional people and Photographers. The Classes I just took were over the top. They were very informative, enhanced my creativity, and my ability to use the camera in so many ways. I learned about so very many parts of good photography. I thought I was good , little did I now there was so much I was missing. Thank you all .... Cleveland Photographic Society“
“My mentality going into our wedding was "I want one photo that to hang on my wall." Well, let me just say, I ended up buying at least half a dozen prints to hang on my wall. The photos Larry took are absolutely incredible. So incredible, in fact, that I sometimes can't believe they're pictures of us. I really appreciated Larry's attitude, helpfulness, and responsiveness throughout the entire planning process. We had NO idea what we were doing, and Larry patiently answered all of our questions and helped create a seamless day-of photo plan. Importantly, he was flexible and listened to what we wanted for our day. He has an exquisite eye for light and shadow and for unusual shots. I can't recommend him or his work enough.“
“She did our newborn photoshoot November 2023. The photos came out gorgeous and I can’t thank her enough. She went above and beyond and was a pleasure to work with. She was very patient and skilled at working with our baby to position him for the photos. I would highly recommend her for newborn photos!“
“Wow! Really great service all around, she helped me pick outfits and backdrops for my daughter, she has all the props, so many backdrops to choose from and oh.so.many. outfits! The website the gallery was sent over on is very easy to use and I love the feature to be able to sort favorite into different folders [grandma's favorites, favorite profile shots etc].<br>The shots she got are fantastic, the quality of the photos is even better, there isn't a bad one in the lot. Even when my daughter was making a weird face or not at all interested in the task at hand Teri managed to squeeze gold out of it. I wish I could go back in time to do this with my older kid. My house is going to look weirdly unbalanced with how many baby photos I have hung up!“
“I loved all my photos they truned out great and we had fun !! love her she so friendly ♡“
“Did two photo shoots with Omar. Professional headshots were excellent and came out as well as I expected. Family photos during the holiday was also a pleasant experience. I have three little girls under 5 years old and he was very patient, creative and made the overall experience fun for my family. Will be going back for more family photos.“
“I met Darren and Erin about 5 years ago and a previous family wedding. Then a few years ago, we used them for a family party. They made a lasting impression on me that I knew when I got engaged, I needed to use them. And I am so glad I did! We did our engagement photos with them and we had a few shots with our son. We were nervous on how he would be (he was 7 months at the time), but they were so welcoming and so much fun. Fast forward to the wedding, they were so patient and provided wonderful suggestions for photo spots. If you are looking for photographers that are fun, easy to work with, and extremely knowledgeable, go with Rising Star!!“
“They say its who you know not what you know. Since becoming very close friends with the esteemed photographer Richard Durrah my life has been on a upward trajectory from day one. Because of his kindness and willingness to share his love for the craft of photography my life has never been the same. My career has been reignited and my confidence level restored because Richard has devoted his time and experience to ensure my success. #RDP.GS3.us“
“My family had photos done with Lana last week, I have not even received the retouched pictures yet, just the rough copies and I am blown away, my husband and I literally said wow numerous times while looking at them. If you're looking for a photographer for a wedding, event or your family look no further, simply amazing.“
