TESTIMONIALS

"Chi is the absolute BEST photographer I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. She puts so much heart and soul into her work and is SO patient and accomodating with her customers, especially children. My daughters were 2 and 3 at the time of our first session with Sugar Petunia and were not able to sit still very well, but Chi captured some beautiful candid shots - it's as if her pictures literally come to life. When my 3 year old looked at the photos with me all she kept saying was "awwwww" - I think that says it all. I could not be happier with my experience with Sugar Petunia Photography!" ~ L. Eder

" Chi has an AMAZING talent. She's fabulous, fun to work with and soooo creative! I love the natural settings. She captured some amazing candid moments of my kids and my kids loved her! ~ T. Favre

"Chi made me look so beautiful!" is what my 4 year old daughter said when she saw the amazing pictures Chi took of her the first time she saw them! Chi has a wonderful gift of capturing the innocence and candid moments of anyone she photographs! I was so thrilled with her work, I will call Chi for all of my occasions! She is awesome and I highly recommend her!" ~ K. Stinnett

"I have had pictures taken by Chi in several situations and have also recommended her to several people...friends and family alike...I have seen nothing but wonderful results in every instance. I will continue to return to Sugar Petunia Photography for the occasions in my family that need captured by such a creative eye!" ~ T. Miller

"I would recommend Chi to anyone who is looking to get pictures done! And I have...to many people! She was the first person to take pictures of my newborn and I was not disappointed. She takes amazing pictures inside and outside. She also does amazing work and her prices are very reasonable. I will go to Chi for any pictures I will have done in the future and I look forward to booking with her again!" ~ D. Kalaher

"Chi does such a wonderful job finding the most creative way to look at ANY setting! I love that all of her pictures are candid and not posed. My children were not being cooperative in the least and yet she got amazing shots of both of them! She is incredibly priced and so willing to work with you, and the work she puts into her images is evident, but subtle! I will use Chi for family pictures from now on!" ~ K. Phillips

"FABULOUS!!! EXCELLENT!!! CREATIVE!!! and friendly too!" ~ A. Fortado

"Chi ROCKS...Quality, Creativity, and Caring!!!" ~ L. Fortado

"Chi did such a great job of creating a fun, relaxing, and comfortable environment for a stress-free photography session. My three year old opened right up and her interactions with him inspired some WONDERFUL photos that I treasure! I've received so many compliments on her candid and natural work. She has excellent prices and it is very evident that this is not only her calling, but also her passion! I look forward to working with her again in the future!" ~ M. Curry

"Had family pics with Chi. It was a pleasure to work with her!" ~ C. Sievers

"I get so excited when I schedule a photo session with Chi. I know that no matter how the shoot goes, she will manage to capture some great moments I can hold onto forever. I have two boys and they never sit still or cooperate, but she still gets great photos. Her prices are very low considering how much time she puts into her photos. I look forward to our next session and I just had one last week!" ~ H. Birdsell

"What can I say that hasn't already been said about Chi's pictures? She is AMAZING and I believe that is an understatement. I am so in love with the pictures she has taken of my children, plus the ones I see on her blog. My kids LOVED working with her! I can't wait until the next session!" ~ S. Bealke

"Chi has taken photos for me and my daughter and what an absolutely AMAZING job she does! Not only are they not "studio same-ole" but she captures the personality of each child, family, etc. Great job Chi! And we'll be boooking again really soon!" ~ S. Ridens

"I dont' even know where to begin this review. I suppose I will start with the photography first. I have had Chi of Sugar Petunia take every professional pictures of my son from newborn to date. I do not plan on having any other photographers take any of his pictures, so I hope she plans on doing this for a long time! Not only are the photograhs priceless moments that only a talented, dedicated photographer can capture, but also, edited to perfection. Anyone can take a picture but what Chi captures is so much more than "just a picture". I have recommended her to so many people and they have vallen in love with her talent also! I am and will continue to be a forever customer! She has made every session enjoyable rather than stressful. I know so many people who have been stressed to the max after a photo session with their child. However, Chi doesn't pose and realizes the best photographs are those moments between poses. I leave there literally dying to see my sneak peeks!

Now to comment on Chi, in regards to her as a person. I met her through Sugar Petunia and became instant friends. She is someone that I feel has been a very important person in my family's life, and am so blessed to have met her. Her photography made me call for an appointment, but she is the true reason I am proud to call her a friend. I am so proud of what she has done by following her dream, and wish her much luck with all her business and personal endeavors in the future. We all love you, Chi!' ~ The Klein Family

"Chi took pictures of our son last year and had to do them inside our home since it was so cold. She has an amazing talent! We had so many excellent pictures. She even captured our son with his favorite friend, his dog. We have an appointment this Fall and can't wait to see what she can do with the Autumn scenery!" ~ D. Pritchett

"My fiance and I recently had our engagement pictures done by Chi Pelo - Sugar Petunia Photography. The day we were supposed to have them done it was windy, cloudy and rainy. We were thinking it was a total bust and we would have to reschedule. However, the rain let up for awhile and we got the session in. I was worried about how they might turn out, my eyes were watering, my hair was blowing, Chad had raindrops on his shirt...we were THRILLED with the results!!! You couldn't even tell the weather was less than perfect! We are so excited to have her as our wedding photographer in October! Thanks for capturing some of the most important moments in our lives Chi!!!" - S. Meyer

"Chi took our first pictures of our completed family! She was simply amazing. Having 3 little ones 3 and under, taking them to a portrait studio is not a pleasant experience. I have always had to wait to get our pictures done and by the time it was our time, the kids were crabby and we felt rushed as there were others behind us. We asked Chi to do some outside photos of our kiddos and I found this to be a really calm and non rushed session, definitely not the experience i have experienced with past picture sessions with other studios! Not only does Chi produce a fantastic product, but her personality is fantastic as well! I have finally found a place to take the kids and actually look forward to picture day! The only complaint i have about Chi is I wished she would have started this years ago so I could have found my great photographer earlier to capture the moments of my babies :) Thanks Chi and I definitely will continue to be a customer of yours!" - The McDowell family

"My pictures turned out fabulous. Chi was able to catch all their natural expressions. My kids had fun getting their pictures taken. There was no crying or fighting with them to get them to smile." - Heather B.

"Our session with Chi was so laid back and fun. The pictures she took turned out amazing. She is a true artist. She truly loves to take pictures and it shows in all of her photos. She made us look better than I could have ever imagined! I love all the natural things she captured in us, those are the everyday memories that we have in our minds but now can look at them everyday to make us smile. Thanks Chi!" - Meg B.

"Chi captures the little moments that we as customers don't even see. I would not hesitate to recommend her in an instant. Well done, Chi, well done." - B. Fritz

"Chi's pictures of my son were amazing! I cannot believe how she captured Vinny's true spirit, even though she had never met him before. The photo shoot was fun and relaxing, and as I looked at my cd, I kept saying, "This one is SO Vinny, this one is SO Vinny!" I will never go anywhere else for pictures! Thank you, Chi!" - Danie S.

"It was an honor to be the very first 'newborn' photo shoot for Chi. It truly was an AMAZING experience. She was so wonderful with both of my children and the pictures turned out phenomenal! My husband and I can't 'thank you' enough for the memories we will have of our son and his big sister. Thank you so much for 'capturing' the 'little' things, we truly apprecaite it!" - The Sievers Family

"Chi - i just want to say this very simply - the fact that you are such a softie is exactly why your photos are so good. You have to have a beautiful heart to capture the beauty in others. Honestly. The most trained photographer in the world can't capture the true love of a family if they are just a cold shell...it's your heart that makes your photos beautiful :) " - Missy B.

"For anyone looking for a great photographer..look no further..Chi is awesome..she took amazing prom pics and she even got my STUBBORN TEENAGE BOY to cooperate, something that I could not accomplish. Their smiles captured in those pics said more than words ever could...Thank You Again!!" - D. White

"Chi's a great photograher for many reasons; she's fun and very creative! Before the shoot she's thinking of things to do. She's personal and can relate to you. Chi did my son's three month pictures and was very accomodating! He was such a grouch the first day, so she agreed to try to take his pictures again a different day and met us somewhere else! Chi also did maternity shots for me and they were great! For both sessions-the maternity and the three month- were incredible! I'm very happy of the quanity and quality of the pictures!" - K. Mahan

"Chi did an AMAZING job photographing our son. Caleb is one and was all over the place. Chi was very patient with him, which made me feel at ease. I didn't feel the session was rushed at all, but instead it was very laid back and personal. I LOVED the fact that my photos were ready within a week. When I viewed the proofs, I was very impressed. Chi's editing and personal touch to the pictures were fantastic. She is truly amazing!!" - T. Sievers
