What our Clients are saying
Willow Street Pictures is truly a ONE OF A KIND photography studio. Darren has an uncanny ability to capture the best photos of people (especially the ones in the family who say they’re not photogenic, or hate having their photos taken) and pets.
They can transform the most ordinary/everyday scenes, poses and props into the most stunning, jaw-dropping statement photographs. The entire team is so much fun to work with and the results are so unique. I still find myself staring at our photos in awe. The pictures they took are stunning and truly capture the fun spirit of our family.”

We’ve had photoshoots in Madagascar, London, and all around the world. More frequently, we travel throughout the tri-state area and bring all the same equipment we use in our studio. You'll find comfort in knowing that we review everything we've created with you onsite to ensure we capture everything you are looking for.
“I had a great experience with Willow Street Pictures. They came to my house so I didn’t need to stress out my pets. The cat photography was amazing. The creative team was patient and calm even as my cats were having a melt down with the flash. In the end, I couldn’t believe how many amazing portraits were taken, even my scaredy cat! The quality is superb and that is what you are investing in. You are getting artwork that will last a lifetime.”
