the KINDEST WORDS
that make me cry all the happy tears
I’ve worked with Lisa for 4 different photoshoots now, and she’s nothing short of amazing. I’ve had multiple professional shoots throughout my life from different talented photographers, but she’s by far the best- not only because her photos are stunning, but because of how she makes you FEEL.
If you’re someone who doesn’t naturally feel comfortable in front of a camera, Lisa has this effortless way of bringing out your best self. She makes you feel relaxed, confident, and genuinely you. Her creativity and energy are so inspiring-every shoot feels more like hanging out with a friend than posing for photos.
And the best part? The pictures are absolutely incredible, every single time. 💫

"We had Hemlock House do our engagement and wedding photos and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. Lisa was amazing not only in her photo creativity (creative shots and editing) but also in her professionalism, support, kindness, and generosity. I would and have been recommending her to anyone! In fact, we loved working with Lisa and our photos so much we booked her for a family session for the holidays! Thank you so much for all the amazing work you did and for capturing these precious moments for us! 10/10 recommend and 100% will be using Hemlock House Photography for all our future photography needs! Thank you Lisa for everything! You are beyond amazing!!"

"If I could give 10 stars I would. Lisa is AMAZING. She is fun, personable, kind and extremely creative. I for one find it very awkward to have my picture taken, but Lisa took all the awkwardness out of it. Within 5 minutes I felt like I was hanging out with a friend. One of the things I adored was how personalized the experience was. Lisa took the time to listen to my disjointed ideas to bring a vision to life. You can tell she truly loves what she does and takes the time to capture your memories, milestones, and any other need you may have. Practically, Lisa is so organized it's amazing. She sent a pamphlet online with instructions of makeup tips and recommendations that accommodate her astheric and those small touches really matter! I have found my photo person! If I ever get married, have children or just want copious photos of myself, I will ALWAYS choose Hemlock House."

"Working with Lisa has been an absolute thrill! She is creative, innovative and wildly talented. She really took the time to listen to our vision for our engagement and wedding photos and she blew us out of the water with the results. Lisa is a true professional, clearly loves what she does, has the most infectious positive energy and is genuinely one of the best people I know. You could not find a better person for any photography needs. Lisa will be my go to for photos forever and always."

"When it comes to Miss Lisa, she is a one of a kind photographer. She not only makes the kids feel comfortable, she treats everyone like family. Lisa has been doing our family photographs for years now along with boudoir ones for myself. Lisa goes above and beyond to get the "perfect" shot and helps create memories that will last a lifetime."

The absolute best photographer and person around. Lisa is so talented and she works tirelessly to get shots that are creative and flattering. I wanted my whole wedding to be captured in a golden glow and she absolutely nailed it. I’m excited to use her for future projects, family portraits, etc. as everything she does is stunning.

"Lisa of Hemlock is utterly and endlessly amazing in every aspect of the photography process. From her introductory emails to feel the vibe you're wanting to achieve, the actual shoot where it's just incredible that the simplest ideas she has will produce images with the best details & most genuine feelings and then the WOW factor of receiving your gallery is honestly the best feeling ever.
My home is filled with her images and they bring such a feeling of happiness & pride that I can not put into words. If you have children she will honestly make them smile and giggle effortlessly, even the stubborn ones! Her timing is one of the fastest I've ever experienced & once you get those images you're already dying to book another session. I wish I could give more stars but I will just gush over her work here instead. Book a session now! You wont regret it. And honestly, she will make you feel like you've been best friends for decades so theres no awkward vibes."

"BEST PHOTOGRAPHER with killer personality and vision. My wedding day was amazing, however I married into an amazing family and wanted to honor their family business and take photos on the family property. (Plus who doesn't want to put on their wedding gear again). Lisa and her crew is AMAZING, she made the day more than just about the STUNNING photos which were better than I could ever ask for, but a memorable day full of laughter and memories. Even my husband had fun who hates doing pictures with me. I cannot wait to use her again!!"

Oh the magic she captures!
Lisa has worked with us in creating dreamy memories for our maternity shoot and again a year later celebrating our one year old little man. She is always full of the best energy and captures the perfect candid interactions or through helpful directions. We are always giddy to open her final gallery knowing it will be hard to choose which ones for the walls. Her style is unmatched in the area and so unique. Cannot recommend anyone more highly.

Lisa is without doubt one of the best creatives I have ever worked with. She went above and beyond to understand my vision for this project, and we connected immediately. She stayed committed to all I wanted to accomplish, and also made me feel so at ease. I was so nervous doing this project, and before you knew it, we were firing on all cylinders and the hours flew by without me even thinking about my nerves. Lisa isn’t just a photographer, she is a mind-blowing, heart-warming experience.

"There are not enough words to properly convey the magnitude of amazingness that is Hemlock House! Lisa is hands down, the best photographer that you could/would ever have the privilege of working with. She has the ability to make you feel calm, confident, and excited. Her pictures are unique, creative, and breathtaking! It's rare that you will find a photographer that makes you genuinely laugh and then captures the pure essence of that feeling. Lisa photographed my wedding and I still cry anytime that I pass a picture in my house. What a treat to relive the happiest day of my life and have all of those feelings come rushing back anytime that I glance at a single photo. I would HIGHLY rec commend Hemlock House and Lisa to anyone that wants to look their best, feel their happiest, and then capture it for eternity. Thank you Hemlock House!!"

Wow. Where do I even begin on writing a review for Lisa…
We met Lisa at my best friends wedding that I was a bridesmaid in around 4 years ago. Her vibes and interactions with the entire group were unmatched. I remember running up to her at the end of the night asking if she would please shoot my wedding whenever that day came (I wasn’t even engaged to my now husband at the time). There may have been a few cocktails involved on my end haha. Fast forward to present day, Lisa has captured some of the most amazing moments of my life. Engagement photos in Tahoe, wedding photos in Maui and maternity photos!! And soon enough she will be shooting our newborn photos with our future baby girl. Lisa makes every person feel like family and so incredibly comfortable in front the camera. Because of this, she really is able to capture the essence of who you REALLY are and the true connections with your loved ones!
My husband and I are so thankful to have found Lisa and we cannot wait to continue to make memories with her and growing family. THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU LISA. WE LOVE YOU!
