Sheila Irene Photography

I am super shy when it comes to having my picture taken. Sheila was so friendly and blended so well that I felt completely comfortable and had fun! We loved all the pictures! She is easy to work with as well. Totally one of the best decisions we made!

Sheila is an incredibly low key, easy to talk to photographer. She will make everyone comfortable, is easy to communicate with, responsive and clear with her business needs and expectations. She is also flexible and fun onsite and is able to deal with all of your crazy family (yes, you have a crazy family, too). Low drama and great talent! Sheila's best ability as a photographer is her how she can capture the warmth of your romance with your partner. Her work makes you feel like you are on the cover of a romance novel! If you have an intimate family style wedding she is the perfect choice. She will capture the love you have with a vibrancy and tenderness that makes everything else fall away.

Sheila gave us a sense that we were working with someone that had the same attitude as the rest of our vendors. Looking back, that was not the case. What we found out were normal things a photographer would do never happened. She didn't mention a pre-wedding consultation, never sent a price list for the photobook options(she said she would at least 3 times), and took 2 months to get the photos to us and had to ask for our address before she sent them. The packaging was very nice, an engraved wooden box with an engraved usb stick with a number of pictures, at least the 100 on the contract. What we found were many pictures that could have been taken from a different angle, lots of cell phones in our first dance pictures. Many people would think that a picture that would be taken would be of the groom when his bride comes into view, we did not get it. Our first kiss was the back of her head, a family member got a much better picture. A photographer has the right to go where ever they need to be to get the best pictures, it seemed like Sheila went where it was convenient for her. I believe this is something she does as a hobby, not to be a professional that does everything to capture the big moments.

We cannot say enough fantastic things about Sheila as our wedding photographer! Not only is she incredibly talented behind the camera, but she's an honestly sweet, down-to-earth person. You'll feel like you're being photographed by a friend that cares about making your wedding photos the most beautiful and flattering as possible! In addition to her skill, Sheila was very flexible with her schedule as our wedding ceremony was moved 3 hours earlier than planned in the 2 weeks before our event. She was more familiar with the Camden area than my husband and I were, so she already had some excellent ideas for where the best shots could be taken. With the 4-hour package, Sheila was able to take her time, never rushed us, and ultimately produced some of the best photos of us we've ever seen. Thank you, Sheila, and if you are in the market for a photographer in the mid-coast area of Maine - hire her immediately!!
