Working with Studio 823 and Diane was easy and a great experience. She was able to fit us in for a booking within a week and even accommodated to a holiday weekend because of my and my partners busy schedules. She made us extremely comfortable throughout the process, provided an excellent suggestion for venue and the pictures are amazing and affordable. Could not recommend more highly. More...

Working with Diane is always a pleasure. I have 4 small children and they are very energetic. Diane is always patient with them and somehow always gets the perfect candid shots! My kids love her and she has the most beautiful places for backdrops. Highly recommend! More...

Diane was great to work with because she was kind and quick to respond, and quick to get us out photos. She had reasonable prices and did a great job with the photographs! We had a family photo session with a large group, and that can be difficult I’m sure, but Diane did a great job capturing everyone in the photos and managing us! We also had Diane take some senior photos of our daughter up at our cottage and we had a great morning with her taking pictures at different locations. Thank you Diane! More...

My husband and I received a certificate for our photo session with Studio 823. Diane was so helpful from picking out the perfect spot to helping us newbies position for the perfect photos. She was so kind and you could tell she does photography because she loves it and makes everyone feel comfortable. Diane is wonderfully professional and passionate. We would definitely recommend Studio 823 for a photo session! More...

Diane did an amazing job with my son, Case & our family photos. Speaking as someone who isn't always "comfortable" in front of the camera- she did a fantastic job making the whole experience seem easy and natural. Love the results & loved the experience! More...

Diane is fantastic! We've never had a family photoshoot. She exceeded our expectations. We were celebrating my parents 50th wedding anniversary. She captured great candids and group pictures of all 16 of us and each family individually. I highly recommend Diane Budzynowski and Studio 823 TC Photography for anybody in the Traverse City, Michigan area. Thanks for the memorable moments! More...

If you are looking for a photographer who not only knows her craft, but is also one of the nicest people that you will ever meet, then Diane of Studio 823 Traverse City Photography is the one for you.
I have had Diane do the senior pictures for both of my children. She photographed my son three years ago. He is a bit shy and really did not want to get his picture taken, but in a matter of moments, Diane had him relaxed and really enjoying the experience. I couldn't have been happier with the end results.
She photographed my daughter just last fall. Again, she had a way of getting her to relax and really enjoy the session. Diane had us smiling and laughing, while she efficiently went about her work. She encouraged us to pick some locations and then was able to be creative in using the backgrounds in a most interesting way. Once again, the results were beautiful.
I am happy to recommend Diane to photograph your special occasion. She is professional, personable, creative and affordable. I think that you will enjoy the experience and the end results as much as I have.

Diane was fantastic to work with! I booked her to shoot my fall family photos. I had an 8 month old and a 2.5 year old so I wasn't sure how long they would tolerate the photo shoot. Diane worked quickly and efficiently and got some amazing shots in a short amount of time. The photos turned out beautiful! More...
