I was tasked with finding a photographer for new corporate head shots for my team and I am confident I made the right choice working with Robert Essel Photography. Robert took the time to discuss our teams needs prior to the shoot, which helped to ensure the session would run smoothly (and more importantly, quickly). Robert and Yoko were very patient and enjoyable to work with and the final products look amazing. We are all very happy with how the photography session ran, as well as with how the photos came out!

I booked Robert to take employee portraits at my company and he was simply amazing. He is incredibly professional, is great at putting his subjects at ease, and has a wonderful artistic eye for capturing everyone's best side. Everyone enjoyed the experience and the fantastic results we got the next morning speak for themselves! Robert went above and beyond by accommodating our price point and even bringing an assistant. He has my most strenuous recommendation. I would choose him again in a heartbeat! More...
