"......you do beautiful work...I have spent years locally looking for a great photographer for the kids... someone that can capture more than a picture... capture a feeling ... that is not something everyone can do... you have the unique ability to capture feeling in your photos..."

"...The lighting and shadows that you capture highlight everything so breathtakingly, I couldn't dream of better pictures to choose from. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for seeing through your lens the beauty we see in Chrissy in our hearts... Thank you again,

Lisa,
"First of all, YOU and YOUR STAFF were from heaven; Lisa, if it had not been for YOU in particular, the wedding could very likely been a disaster; you are the most incredible human being I have ever met; Your energy Lisa is so positive and loving; warm and nurturing ...Because of the beautiful images you captured at the wedding, this will be a day to NEVER forget.  "

All our love,
Don and Wendy

I was absolutely taken breathless viewing Miranda and Brians' engagement photos as well as all of your other photos on your web site. You truly have a gift of capturing the beauty of every moment!! 

Fondly,
Heather & Jesse

Hi, Ms. Richmond,
"I saw the url for your website and went there - and spent the next half hour looking at your absolutely wonderful photographs...your pics are a treat not just for the eyes, but for the senses, as any good photograph should be. And of course I recognized some of the "subjects" both young and adult - what fun! "

Dr Ulrich Hacker

We absolutely love the pictures!!!  So does Bethany's family as well as mine!!  Bethany and I were looking at the proofs today, but we're having a hard time deciding which to buy as they are all so great!  You did such an awesome job with the lighting, adapting to the various backgrounds, and capturing us at the best moments.  We're very, very happy with them...  Bethany told me this afternoon she's excited about how the pictures are going to be at the wedding in a year.  Thanks again for your great work and awesome attitude!!  You made the session easy and enjoyable. 
 
Take care,
Tom

A bride referral to another bride:
 
First let me say congratulations to you!  As my now husband and I were deciding on what was really important for our wedding we decided photography was top at the list!  We saw Lisa’s website and were almost immediately sold but decided we should be somewhat rational and meet with her first . From the moment we met with her we were sold!  First she is just an awesome person and extremely accommodating.  She put Brian and me at ease that our day would look and feel like whatever we wanted it to.  Once she showed us some of her work, we were sold – plain and simple.
 
From our engagement session (which we did half of it out on our boat) to the wedding – we could not be any happier with the work Lisa did.  Rest assured – she will pretty much do whatever you ask of her – she simply LOVES what she does and she wants you to love what she does for you. 

All I can say is we love her.  She is professional yet fun.  She knows how to make everyone laugh and she definitely knows how to capture the moment.  I would recommend her to anyone without blinking an eye and I think her work speaks for itself about a million times over.  I spoke to my husband two nights ago about putting the wedding album together and he said “you guys do whatever you want – after the engagement stuff I trust her to make all the decisions” and I feel the exact same way.

If you have any additional questions please don’t hesitate to ask.  Lisa made our day even more special and I can’t wait to get our wedding album put together.  I will cherish it and her for the rest of my life for what she did to capture our day!
 
Best of luck to you!

Hi Lisa,
"...we LOVED our photos - we were THRILLED with so many of them and we were laughing up a storm and just enjoying checking them out. What a fun day! You can see in our faces how relaxed you had us feeling...I notice on your website that many clients make you a part of all of their "special events" in life ~ Dave and I would be honored if you would consider doing the same for us. "

Love, Elizabeth and Dave

Dear Lisa,
"You are beyond words…..Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! ...On behalf of all the families we thank you...you have been so pleasant and delightful to work with...you helped to make our day special. "

Love, Peter and Helen

"I felt instantly at ease and with Lisa's incredible encouragement, within minutes, every picture was a celebration. It was so empowering to feel beautiful and even sexy with my belly. Geoff and I couldn't stop laughing and smiling during the shoot, and for me, it was one of the highlights of the pregnancy--to immortalize just how much we love this baby! Lisa made me glow with pride, and I was a goddess transformed...or at least, a woman giggling at the sheer joy of becoming a mother. Thank you, Lisa!"

Love, Renee

Lisa,
"I really want to thank you for what you did for Nate, it was way above and beyond, and he was thrilled that you were able to do the shoot at Sierra. I have so much to thank you for, mostly bringing his passion home for me to see. I have never watched Nate snowboard so this was really very special for me. I caught myself clicking through them like an old fashion movie, and it really felt like a live experience."
 
Barbara Abel

"What a gift you have for capturing our souls."

Alice Cromer

"Not only were we excited about how well they turned out, we wanted to let you know how wonderfully amazing it was that our true personalities and love for each other came through in each picture. It was a day packed with fun that we will never forget and we look forward to doing it again in the future.

I know my best friend just booked with you!!! She's very excited about it, but then I knew she would be interested when we gave her a picture of us that you did and she started crying!!!"

Laurel, Pete and Corrine

"I just wanted to tell you again how beautiful these pictures are. ... I watch the slideshow all the time and it still makes my heart flutter. Thank you again Lisa."

Tracy and Chris

My Dear Lisa
I have been in television for over 40 years. You are in the right/wrong business. You have a great touch for those slide shows and probably would be a great editor and/or director producer.  As a professional, I admire very much your work and wish you to know that. You did real good girl! I am way impressed....On behalf of my whole family, thank you for being so special. Working with you was a highlight...You were so appreciated and we will recommend you to many.

Michael Dennis, Channel 7

You and Marie worked your tails off that day - We appreciate it, and LOVE the guest book!!  Everyone did - you were right, much better than the normal one...everyone wrote little notes and stuff, we love it!...Everyone is raving to me about your photos - how great they are, how everyone should use you, etc.  Thanks for everything!  You and Marie both - I just loved working with you girls!  You made it so easy - I almost forgot someone was there taking pictures - that's GOOD!!...You made two fools look awesome - you're magic!!!!
 
LOVE YOU!!!
Marie

We love, love, love the job that you did with our wedding; we couldn't be happier with the pictures. We especially love the candid shots that you took, they captured such great moments. Thank you again, so very much, for doing such a great job, and for putting so much into this! We couldn't be happier with it.

Katie Morecraft House

The family ia all a buzz, trying to decide which pics to get... Everyone-- and I mean EVERYONE-- has commented on how great the pictures are and how hard it is to decide. My father just said today, "She's a really good photographer". Yes, she is :)

Amy Stewart

We finally got to see it with the music!!! It was wonderful, so thoughtful. We can't tell you enough how much we love the photo's and the slideshow! I guess that my dad pretty much shows it to all his patients, and he said most of them cry.

Becky(Carter) and Jorden Mingle

I want you to know I appreciate how you captured the wedding in the slideshow. After a couple minutes of emotions I wanted to email you. . .  you are truly gifted!

Karen Mingle

You have made all the couples very happy this year & you deserve all the praise that you receive.
