HEY EVERYONE; its time to cancel the corporate conglomorates standing between artists and their communities by buying up all the top google placements, pushing independent businesses out of any reasonably affordable visibility and then forcing vendors to pay fees to some foreign entity with a website to access just the ability to quote potential clients in our own local areas or "Middle-Man" culture as we, at ef Ocho, like to refer to it by. Sites like Fash, the Knot and wedding wire dont provide a service to you the client, nor to vendors, the "top professionals" arent vetted in any way like they allude, they simply favor the highest paying subscribers, place a barrier between clients and vendors then charge vendors to cross it. Just your typical run of the mill "create a problem, sell the solution" corrupted business practices. Legal? Yes. Ethical? NO; But not surprising from "services" that suggested using other photographers images without permission in my portfolio when I refused to buy more leads due to the low booking rate. And when I say "low" I'm being nice because its actually zero jobs booked from fash, in fact a sales person from one of these sites who called to try and sell more "leads" told me that typically one would have to spend at least $1500 on leads before booking just one single job and they truly believe that is totally okay! Make a tangible positive impact in your communities artists lives by connecting with vendors directly and help us cancel middle man culture now!

    Our May wedding was cancelled by the venue we had booked due to the pandemic and rather than postpone we kept our original date and moved it to my parents back yard but the wedding photographer my wife had originally booked was no longer available on the date because he assumed we would be rescheduled at the venue for may 2021 so we ended up in a scramble to find the right photographer last minute, something my wife could not even comprehend at the time as she had poured over wedding sites for months trying to decide on a photographer whose style fit with ours and booked the guy nearly a year in advance to our wedding date; the thought of having to do this again AND last minute was just incomprehensible to her so she reluctantly put the task on me. I found Laura via her Facebook page and although she didnt have any wedding photos to show me she had really nice looking photos otherwise and my wife called me crazy for saying this but i just had a feeling she was right for us so i deciced to take a chance, booked her, and it turned out GREAT!!!! I mean really exceptional photography and for the price theres just no comparison to other photographers in that price range she could easily charge much more based on what ive seen out there especially since there was no exta charge for the 2nd shooter (her husband) who also took some videos which they included for no extra cost as well the video was a reallly excellent surprise like icing on the cake and my wife was so pleased with the printed album we ordered that its the first thing she shows anyone that comes to our home and it really beautiful. Anyone on the fence about hiring Ef Ocho for your wedding i stongly reccomend you get off the fence and book it Laura and her husband are THE BEST!!!

    I wanted to get a portrait for my boyfriend but never modeled before. Laura was very professional and her studio and lighting was amazing. She had lots of options and I brought several outfits. After the studio photo shoot, we went out for sunset pics as I had requested when booking. All in all it was an awesome experience and I had a great time. I will be using Ef Ocho for my engagement party and wedding for sure.

    Let me say first that the photos turned out amazing I mean I knew the quality of Lauras work thru her FB page but I never imagined that I could look this fabulous but still like myself (unlike a filter, anyone else sick of baby face bc I am lol) which was actually my biggest fear because Im so used to selfies I wasnt sure if someone else could take my picture but I was very gladly mistaken, also the photobook I received with my final order was so nice something my husband and i will enjoy for years. Now with that being said besides the killer pics she took working with laura was truly an experience like no other, everything was taken care of down to the very last detail as if I was a vogue cover model, like really knocked it out of the park. I highly reccomend Laura from ef ocho photo for any type of professional photography you may need, she will go above and beyond to make sure your your final images are everything you hoped they would be and more.

    Frequently asked questions

    Laura is a self taught photographer with 10+ years experience in the industry. she began learning on 35mm film in 1999 and converted to digital in 2009 which is the year we opened our photography business as well.  Laura is very proficient in the latest versions of Adobe photoshop & lightroom so we handle all of our editing in house and can easily meet any retouching needs you may have.  Our current expertise is portraiture; everything from traditional, fine art & boudoir to seniors, engagements, events, families and pets.  Laura has also photographed several weddings and we are actively seeking any opportunity to add more weddings to our workflow at this time. 

    I do have a pricing standard that is immediately available upon request; however, at this time I dont prefer to post it publicly as we are still building a commercial body of work so we wouldnt want to miss out any opportunity on account of our posted rates not fitting within a client's particular budget, plainly stated: WE WANT TO WORK WITH ALL OF YOU, we can work with any budget, SO JUST ASK!! =]
