“Emily is so wonderful to work with! She is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable, and takes as much time as needed to get the perfect shot (constantly catering to the dancer’s needs). I had a wonderful time working with her and am blown away by the results. I am in love with the portraits and would recommend her to everyone!”

“Emily was very easy to work with and had great suggestions for the photos, I am very happy with the results.”

“Emily took senior portraits of my daughter and I could not be happier with the pictures. She made a wide range of suggestions for the session location and we were able to pick one that suited my daughter’s personality. My daughter is shy, and she was a little nervous about the portrait session, but Emily made her feel very comfortable, and her personality came through beautifully in the pictures. I loved that Emily wanted to chat with both of us to get to know my daughter better, and she was always very prompt in responding to questions. She was very professional during the session, but also very laid back and easy to work with, which helped my daughter not feel so nervous. We loved the prints, and she helped us narrow down our choices. We had them arranged in a beautiful album which we will always treasure.

I highly recommend Emily for any type of portrait session. The senior portraits were definitely worth the cost. I figured this is the only time I will do a session for just my daughter so it was totally worth it. I will use her again for family portraits and my two sons when they graduate. Thank you Emily!”

“We had such a great experience working with Emily for our son’s senior photos. She was flexible in working with us on our preferred date and location. She was in frequent communication and watched the weather closely, which was good as we had to change the plan due to the forecast. She made it so easy to choose photos and provided a slide show that we could enjoy and share. We were so happy with how the portraits turned out! She hand delivered the prints in a lovely box and the quality is excellent. I highly recommend Emily for your portrait needs.”

“We had Emily out to our studio for a day of photographing our Performance Company dancers. She was an absolute expert working with dancers! The photos are amazing (every. single. one.) and I know many of them she got in one click. We are having her back to photograph our Nutcracker in December and hope to be on her schedule each spring to photograph our dancers in the studio. Artists in Motion Performing Arts in Schuylkill Haven, PA highly recommends Emily Brunner Photography!”

“I would highly recommend Emily if you are looking for a dance photographer. I could not have asked for a better experience with my daughters photos. Emily was both highly professional and personal at the same time. Even when I dropped the ball communicating on my end , Emily helped to make sure we stayed on track with this whole process. From setting up the initial Zoom consultation, helping me find hair and makeup, and even accommodations in the area.

I am so happy and thankful to have these wonderful photos to remember this phase of my daughters life.”

“Emily was wonderful to work with! She made the whole process so easy and exciting. It was my first photo shoot, but I didn’t feel overwhelmed at all. She walked me through process and made it so easy for me to understand. She offered suggestions when I wasn’t sure on what poses I liked and really made sure to focus on my legs and proportions. We ended up with some really amazing photos. Thank you!”

“Emily did a fantastic job for us. I had her do several headshots for us that we will use in promotion. She also did many photos of our lab to use instead of stock photos. She did a fantastic job of capturing the look and feel of our lab by ensuring she had the right fore and backgrounds to enhance the photos. The composition of the photos was phenomenal. The shots were back to me in no time, and then she retouched the headshots very quickly.

She also pays attention to detail. She ensured lab coats were buttoned, hair was just so, knew where the south side of the building was, etc. She also had the foresight to ask if I wanted any branded items included in the photos.

Finally, I had a few unexpected requests. She executed on them immediately and without extra charge.

She arrived on time, took excellent pictures, was very flexible and helpful throughout the process. When I need additional headshots, I will be calling Emily. I highly recommend her.”

“Emily shot my daughters dance pictures and did an amazing job. She was so patient and really knew how to get the best shots. I would definitely use her again!”

“Emily is fantastic! She is very personal in her approach and making sure the photo session delivers the outcome you desire. The photos were great and everything was handled professionally and timely throughout the entire process.”

“Great experience working with Emily. She went through my options and shot and reshot the pic until I found what I was looking for. She made it very comfortable and I really did enjoy the experience. I had a very tight deadline, and she exceeded my expectations in every measurable way. She delivered the end product to me days before it was due. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Emily was such a pleasure to work with from the moment we connected and we were immediately honored to be able to work with her. We appreciated her time and preparation leading up to the session that made the day go smoothly. Emily has an exceptional knowledge for dance along with effective ways to bring the best poses out of a dancer. My ten year old daughter, Riley, had a great day working with her and felt extremely comfortable, which allowed for an amazing final set of photos. Emily has a true gift and her use of lighting for each pose was the best I’ve seen in the photography industry. I would highly recommend working with her to anyone.”

“My daughters used Emily for headshots. It was a wonderful experience. Emily made sure they felt comfortable during the entire time. She assisted us in choosing the best shots for our purposes. Retouching was excellent. We will definitely be back!”

“My 13-year old daughter had a wonderful experience with Emily during her dance audition photoshoot. Emily worked directly with her to perfect each pose until she was happy with the results. Emily had her pick all her photos at the end which she loved. She said it was so much fun and the photos turned out amazing. These photos are exactly what we needed for her Summer Intensive audition registration. We will definitely use Emily again when we need other dance photos. Such a pleasure.”

“Emily was amazing to work with on professional dance photos! I love my new portraits, and she was super thorough with her directions and work environment. It was truly a lovely experience. Thank you Emily!”

“The picture quality, service and product were amazing. Emily was a joy to work with. She paid attention to all the details I described during our initial meeting. She also provided helpful tips. She is very patient and good with kids. I would recommend Emily for family pictures, portraits or any event.”

“I love Emily and her work. I love our family pictures it turned out exactly the way I wanted it. Emily made it happen because she took the time to listen to my request making sure she understood how I wanted our family picture look like. She also gave me feedback on what would look best etc. She is very easy to work with and a wonderful person. Thank you Emily!”

“My daughter had a wonderful experience working with Emily for photos she needed for an upcoming dance audition. Emily is so talented, and was very patient and knowledgeable, ensuring that the photos captured the poses just right. They turned out beautifully, were provided to us in a short time frame, and we had a great experience!”

“My daughter’s senior portraits arrived today in a beautiful box, tied with a bow….such an elegant and classy presentation! The portraits are even more spectacular than I imagined, and I am absolutely thrilled with them! Emily did such an amazing job, and she truly captured Meghan’s spirit. I really can’t wait to work with her again… she has such a gift! Thank you again … and again, Emily!!”

“Emily was wonderful to work with! She made the process easy and exciting. She walked me through step by step from planning the photo shoot, including clothing and location, all the way through dropping off our final product. We had regular information sessions so I always felt prepared and never overwhelmed. She made the day fun and even my teenager had a good time! She was very patient with our 5 year who does not follow instructions well. Emily is a professional but she is also warm and friendly, and all my children responded to her. But most of all, she captured beautiful photos that truly reflect everyone’s personality. They are a real work of art! Thank you Emily!”

“I’m late writing this review - but hopefully the fact that I am writing one after all this time will show just how much I enjoyed and appreciated Emily’s work. Emily took both my law school graduation photos and my professional headshots in April of 2021. From the moment I called her with an inquiry, she conducted her business so professionally. We discussed pricing, scheduling, and even possible printing and framing options all at the outset. My photos were taken over two sessions. Emily had thought of every detail - from suggesting lipstick to cover any dry lips to researching and obtaining the permit required to shoot at my chosen outdoor location. On the day of the outdoor session, she arrived to scope the area for the best places to photograph. Practically all the photos Emily took were so beautiful that I had a hard time narrowing down which I would keep. She is skilled at posing her subjects so that she captures the most natural and authentic versions of them. I’m so glad I came to Emily to capture this momentous occasion in my life. Most importantly, Emily is a truly charming person. It was a joy to be photographed by her. I will certainly be returning to Emily for more photos in the future.”

“My family couldn’t be happier with the portrait and collection of photos we had done with Emily. She is tremendous to work with and the end results exceeded all expectations.”

“Emily was so kind, warm and welcoming but also extremely efficient and communicative. She was such a pleasure to work with and very open to working with us to capture each family members individual personality! These gorgeous photos are something my family and I will treasure for many years to come!!! Thank you Emily!!!”

“Emily was great to work with. I needed professional headshots and wanted to find someone who could help me strike the balance between professionalism and letting my personality shine through. Emily pulled it off! I’ve received multiple complements on my headshots since posting them and I feel so much more confident about my presence on professional networking sites. I would absolutely work with her again.”

“Emily was terrific and very smart working with a large group, both adults and children. Our family portrait is perfect- just what we hoped for. I highly recommend Emily!!!!”

“My son had a wonderful experience working with Emily! She made him feel so at ease and he really had a great time. She was able to really capture who he is! Emily was wonderful to work with. She was fantastic at communicating and getting the kinds of shots we were looking for! She took time to talk with us beforehand and get to know him and how he wanted his pictures to be. She did a beautiful job and we received our prints and digital photos in a very reasonable amount of time. We ordered prints and a book and they are beautiful! HIGHLY recommend!!”

“Emily met every aspect of what we needed. Emily was extremely responsive and flexible - quickly providing reasonable options for pricing and scheduling. Emily communicated professionally and knowledgeably with our NYC web design (vendor) - before and after the photo shoot. Emily was friendly and thorough during the photo shoot - she really put the staff at ease. The process moved along quickly - Emily stayed organized from start to finish. All of our stakeholders agree that the end results - new staff headshots - are a great quality and we highly recommend Emily Brunner Photography.”

“I needed professional headshots, school photos, and assets for a website. I really enjoyed Ms. Brunner’s process, from initial contact, contract, sitting in her studio, and final photographs. She made it fun and took her time to get the best shots. I felt like I was taken care of throughout my experience. I would highly recommend!”

“Emily is a thorough professional. I loved my headshot session with her. She takes multiple pictures and let’s you choose your favorite one’s. The pictures were fantastic. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a photo session.”

“We are absolutely thrilled with our son’s senior portraits! Emily was fabulous—she quickly made our son feel comfortable and confident. Emily perfectly captured the essence of our son in an amazing setting (Washington’s Headquarters at Valley Forge National Historic Park) where she knew many places for a variety of settings and backdrops all in the same location. Emily knew the exact time to arrive to ensure perfect use of the daylight. As a result, the session was both streamlined and enjoyable. The resulting photographs were simply stunning and exceeded our expectations! The album she made for us is of such a high quality—we will cherish it always. I highly recommend Emily, and plan to use her again.”

“Emily takes absolutely amazing pictures! I have had Emily take my oldest sons’ senior pictures (an entire portfolio). They were beyond amazing! Emily has taken my younger sons’ pictures for the past two years. I use Emily instead of the dreaded school pictures. My youngest son is extremely active and it is very challenging to get his picture let alone one that is a good one. Emily, time and time again, has taken such amazing pictures of him. She knows just how to work with him to get him to be natural and have an authentic smile EACH TIME. Working with Emily is such a fun and pleasant experience for both me and my kids. She takes her time to show you the pictures and walks you through all the options for them (size, cropping, framing, beautiful books, etc.). Production and delivery is fast! She not only takes portraits, family photos, & special occasions but also professional portraits for business needs. My friends, family and even strangers have commented on what wonderful photographs of my family she has taken. I highly recommend Emily for all of your photography needs. I will continue to have Emily work with me on all of my photography needs!!”

“What a wonderful experience. Emily was so professional, my guest loved that they didn’t even realize she was there but got incredible pictures.
