She is also very quick on getting proofs done and your order in. Great customer service! Great experience! (08/07/08, 11:40 am)

We love our photos...a beautiful moment in our baby's life captured forever! Our family looks forward to many more sessions as our girls grow! (08/07/08, 11:49 am)

You made us all feel so comfortable and relaxed. And thank you for taking over for a bit so I could take a much needed shower :)We cannot wait to have more sessions with you in the future.

April C. wrote: My favorite part of our session (besides the actual shoot) was when we were leaving... Summer kissed both of my girls on their foreheads when she said goodbye..not only was it sweet, it said a lot about Summer..First of all, Summer is a Mom, who loves kids, and it shows. And secondly, Summer has a way of putting every one at ease, she's laid-back, easy-going and understands that there isn't always going to be 100% cooperation from the little people. She takes the time to connect with you and get to know your family, provides beautiful images, and is a great person to work with - and that's why Summer is my fav! P.S. I linked you on my blog! :o) (08/07/08, 12:07 pm)

Holly Burkhardt wrote: I was fortunate to have Summer take Lilly's pictures when she first started tossing around the idea of becoming a photographer. I LOVED her ideas for pictures at the botanical gardens. Not only did we capture a picture but we captured memories. I must say that my favourite part was the storyboard she made of my daughters loving affection towards Charlotte. I think you are very creative and love how you capture the personality of each client. Love you babe and can't wait till i see you again. www.hollyburkhardt.blogspot.com (08/07/08, 1:10 pm)

He was so excited to take pictures with her, if you know T you know that he is usually pretty shy. She also capture both of my boys spirit in the pictures that I've seen so far, and I love that, I don't have many pictures like that. My boys loved Summer so much that they colored her pictures for her fridge and they are still talking about her to everyone they talk to. Summer is just plain fun to have a photo shoot with!

LisaP wrote: My favorite thing about SKP (or Summer) is her ability to capture something completely unique and beautiful in every shoot. I love looking at your blog because you never capture the same type of image twice. Even with newborns, I am amazed at how individual and miraculous each baby is. I LOVE that your purpose is to capture what a child looks like on that day of his life. You are so right, those are the best memories!!! Plus, you gave me the most BEAUTIFUL images of the last baby I will have...priceless! (08/07/08, 3:25 pm)

Michelle wrote: Several of my friends have had their children's pictures with you and just loved all the pictures you took and how great you were with their kids. I got on your site back when you had a photo contest to vote for them. I love your site and It would be neat to get my kids pictures done with you in the future (I have a 3.5 year old and a 10 month old)! I actually recognized your husband Matt from your pictures as well. I remember hanging out with him and his friends at good ole Schooners back in the college days (I always tagged along with my friend Jon) :) Love checking out your pictures. You do such a good job. It looks like the best job in the world (besides being a mom of course)! (08/07/08, 3:45 pm)

Sara C wrote: We simply adore Summer! It is so difficult to find someone who truly photographs PEOPLE, especially children. It seems like most photographers who do on-location and/or children take adult studio style and try to translate it into a natural light environment simply b/c it's trendy or b/c they have a camera and think they can. Summer simply has a passion for children and for what makes each of them unique - from the itty, bitty newborn up to the pre-teen older brothers and sisters. The 3 times she has gifted our family with images she has taken the time to see what makes our son (and now daughter) who they are and who they are to us, their parents. And in a very ethereal way like only a true artist can. (08/07/08, 4:41 pm)

You did a wonderful job and I can not wait to get my prints. :) Future offerings.... HUM, maybe WEDDINGS..... (08/07/08, 4:57 pm)

Libby wrote: Summer! Though my experience with SKP hasn't been a photo shoot (yet, heehee), at the risk of sounding like everyone else I love the way you capture the essense of the children instead of a stiff, posed portrait. Your yawning, snoozing, round and curly little newborn shots are *so* fun, and they're a really neat way to preserve memories. I must also add, though, that my favorite shots are actually the ones you post of Charlotte and your family. You guys are so fun! When I make it to motherhood, I will definitely bring my little babes down here. You are so fun, and you do great work--almost makes me wish I was a newborn so you'd take my picture, heehee... or in the future you could do, er, "bigger kids" too?! ;) (08/07/08, 5:15 pm)

Like Libby said pictures of "bigger kids" too. :) Thanks so much for taking me to the zoo and lunch Summer. I love you and your family. (08/08/08, 11:42 am)
