Atsumi is the most skilled and creative photographer we have ever worked with. She took our maternity photos and everyone was asking who did them because they were so perfect!!

Atsumi did an excellent job wrangling our large family for some indoor and outdoor shots. She was kind and lovely to work with, and we ended up with so many beautiful photos. We will absolutely book Atusimi for future family photos, and highly recommend her to others looking to capture special moments.

We’ve had the best experience with Atsumi Sullivan! She photographed Ethan’s newborn session, first-year cake smash, and our family holiday photos, and exceeded our expectations every time. She’s incredibly creative, patient, and truly a baby whisperer. She captured Ethan’s curls, expressions, and tiny details so…

Atsumi is so talented! She recently photographed our 12 year old German Shorthair and captured him perfectly. Her love of animals was evident during the shoot and we absolutely love the photos! Thank you!

A Photographer with Heart and Magic Behind the Lens

Working with Atsumi was a wonderful experience and well worth the time and expense.
She was professional and made me and my family very comfortable in her studio. There was a place for my wife to feed and for us to change my son. She is talented working with infants and I was impressed at how well she was able to calm my 2 week old son during a long shoot.
Our photos turned out better than I could have hoped, I feel lucky to have worked with her and would love to work with her again in the future.
I would recommend Atsumi to anyone.

Atsumi is the most skilled and creative photographer we have ever worked with. She took our maternity photos and everyone was asking who did them because they were so perfect!! She's relaxed, confident and positive throughout so you feel all of those things when you're infront of the camera too. We recently had her do our newborn shoot and she is a baby whisperer. Seriously, she has this down to a science and she treats the parents and baby with such care. Atsumi is a professional through and through whom instantly feels like a life long friend. She is who you want behind the camera!!

We’ve had the best experience with Atsumi Sullivan! She photographed Ethan’s newborn session, first-year cake smash, and our family holiday photos, and exceeded our expectations every time. She’s incredibly creative, patient, and truly a baby whisperer. She captured Ethan’s curls, expressions, and tiny details so beautifully — and even managed to get amazing shots of our whole family, including our energetic golden doodle! The photos are warm, natural, and full of emotion. Highly recommend!

A Photographer with Heart and Magic Behind the Lens
I honestly don’t have the words to express how much these photos mean to me. My dog is already the love of my life, but somehow, through Atsumi’s lens, that love became even more real, more vivid, more permanent. Every shot overflowed with personality, tenderness, and joy—it’s like she captured the soul of my pup.
I’m absolutely over the moon. I can’t stop looking at these images. They made me tear up (in the best way), because they reflect everything I feel about my dog—his quirks, his heart, our bond. These aren’t just pictures. They’re moments I’ll treasure for a lifetime.
If you want more than just pet photography—if you want someone who sees the love you feel and brings it to life—Atsumi is it.
Thank you for this gift. Truly.

We had the BEST experience with Atsumi! Not only was her studio equipped with things to entertain my toddler, she was fully prepared and ready. She is such a kind, and patient person. As you new parents know, having a baby can add so much time to even the simplest task! And Atsumi was so patient and supportive while my baby fed or needed a diaper change. We were so comfortable being there, she welcomed us as if we were family. And I mean come on, you can’t beat the gorgeous photos! She’s a true talent and I cannot recommend enough!

I booked a product photoshoot with Atsumi for the launch of my e-commerce website. We spoke prior to the session about my vision and she provided guidance for the additional pre-work I should do to maximize our time together. During the shoot Atsumi was systematic and efficient in the studio and she partnered with me creatively in helping bring my product shot goals to life—we explored some different ideas together that led to some really unique on-brand photos. Post-session, the review and delivery process went smoothly. In the end, I absolutely got what I wanted from a product photoshoot and even have some additional images to use for content down the road. Would definitely recommend Atsumi for your project!
