I took headshots at Butter Studio for my professional licensing application and to update my LinkedIn. I felt instantly comfortable at the studio and she was super efficient. She gave good directions to help me with poses and the finished photos came VERY quickly, even over the weekend. I would 100% go again whenever I need to update my pics!

Great experience with Joyce getting headshots. She has made a very cozy studio set-up, with everything you'd need for pre-shoot prep. I'm camera shy and Joyce was wonderful in helping me pose and loosen up. I would definitely come back for future photos!

As someone who does not like to have their photo taken, I could not be more thrilled with how my headshots came out. Joyce made the experience incredibly comfortable. She truly has an understanding of not only how to capture the perfect image but also on how to provide five start service.

Joyce (the photographer) really takes the time to make sure you not only feel comfortable but also love your photos. She has clothes you can use and makeup for light touch-ups. Best experience!!!
