We had the pleasure of working with Jeff for both of our children's senior portraits our son last year and our daughter, Lily, this year. We couldn't be happier with the experience. Jeff is incredibly talented. His wife, Carolle, was so helpful throughout the session. Together, they made Lily feel completely welcome and at ease, which really shines through in her portraits. Carolle was also wonderful at keeping Lily's hair looking perfect while we were shooting outside on their beautiful property, paying attention to every little detail so each photo looked its best. Jeff has a gift for capturing each person's personality and creating portraits that are both beautiful and timeless. The quality of the photographs, the attention to detail, and the care they put into every aspect of the session are exceptional, making it truly worth the investment. These aren't just senior pictures, they're keepsakes our family will treasure for years to come. If you're looking for an exceptional senior portrait experience, I highly recommend Jeff Dachowski. We are so grateful for the beautiful memories Jeff and Carolle captured for both of our children.

Came to my house the day after Thanksgiving to photograph 9 adults and 9 children under 12 years old. Everything was done efficiently and with fun, including outside pictures in the snow and wind. Jeff and Carol were both especially good with the children.

Wonderful experience with Jeff coaching to get my business and branding on track. Very personalized agenda based on my goals which is unlike any other training I have received in the past. He isn't trying to have me follow his successful business model. He listens to what I am saying and is helping me tailor a plan to bring my business goals to fruition.

Kelly! I am so excited to see where your business grows to in the next few years!
