Other Testimonials
“I have been coming to Lifestyle Photography for 21 years. My daughter was just 3 months old when I discovered Carol Leo; she had her photo studio in East Aurora at the time. I brought along 3 different outfits and a feather boa; Carol encouraged me to change outfits and we even did a little nude photo with the feather boa (changing outfits wasn’t allowed at the other studios I had gone to). Needless to say my daughters photographs turned out amazing – Carol was kind, patient, funny, loving in her touch and positioned the baby so she was just perfect. Since that first encounter I “fell in love” with Carol and her photography. We have had family portraits, first communion portraits, portraits with bunny rabbits and lambs and Teddy Bear Tea – this portrait is one that people have marveled over and asked where I purchased the “picture”; I point out that the little girl in the portrait is my daughter and people are amazed that it’s a photograph. That’s the kind of quality portrait that Dawn and Carol produce. As my children have grown over the years, so has my collection of Lifestyle Photography portraits. Carol moved to the Village of Orchard Park and Dawn joined the studio years ago making my access to Carol and Dawn much easier! We’ve had high school senior portraits taken by both Carol and Dawn, and these are treasures close to my heart. I found out that sometimes a quick click of the camera when least expected, can produce a beautiful photo that becomes a favorite, or capturing a quiet moment between a new mommy and daddy holding their newborn with the light just right (thank you Dawn! – on both counts) can really capture the love in that moment. Most recently Carol came to my home and took a family portrait (during a light rain, in the middle of winter while everyone was a bit cold and concerned about their hair! Well I was concerned about my hair!); we had tea, hot cocoa and Christmas cookies to warm up once inside but truly Carol’s warmth and professional attitude towards us gave us a much cherished family portrait including my daughters-in-law and 4 dogs! Everyone looks great in the portraits we chose and Carol even took photographs of my sons dogs and framed them for him. And finally, Dawn did a session with our new grandson! Baby and parents; baby and parents and grandparents; and baby and grandparents! So our tradition is now being handed down to the next generation in our family. We just love Carol and Dawn and the quality portraits we receive from Lifestyle Photography. We don’t consider Carol and Dawn our photographers, we consider them family and we cherish our relationship with both of them. We love you ladies!”

“Two family portraits, Four Communion pictures and two High School graduation shoots later, we are still huge fans of Lifestyle Photography. Over the past 12 years Lifestyle Photography has been all the things you’d expect from a top notch professional photography studio. The added bonus is they’ve gotten to know our family and captured the individual spirit of our children in their portraits. We are lucky enough to not only call Lifestyle our photographers but also our friends.”
-Denise Williams, Mom of Cort Williams, Williamsville East High School

There are no words for the portrait and mini collage we brought home – they are stunning! lit up both rooms. I couldn’t have asked for more! You are all lovely people – Thank you so, so much. The Mortimer Family
I just wanted to say thank you for the portrait of my sons, Luke and Aidan. It brought tears to the eyes of both grandmothers. The girls at the office loved it as well and even had me showing some patients when they came in! You are all so wonderful! thanks again. Jennifer Wallace
“I’ve been looking at the pictures (which are already hanging on our wall) since Tom brought them home. They are beautiful. It was a very special time when we brought our angel to your studio. I’ll never forget how she was that day. Karana was one in a million and thanks to you, we have our beautiful memories for all to admire.” Thank you.

“Lifestyle Photography is amazing!! They understand the dynamics of working with small children in any situation. Pregnancy photos, Family photos, and now pictures with my kids together. I have used them several times now to capture the most important moments in our family life so far.
I would highly suggest letting this business be your go to for any time period that you want captured effectively! Their artistic delivery is incredible and it is obvious that they love what they do!”
