 TESTIMONIALS:

"I had the pleasure of learning how to integrate strobes and film with Arielle. As a film photographer based in New England, I face my fair share of dark and gloomy days, and felt like I really needed to master using strobes/flash on film to deliver consistently clean and beautiful results to my clients. Arielle's background in stunning portrait lighting and analog film made her the perfect fit! She is warm, patient and extremely knowledgeable, and made learning fun! Shooting film with strobes can be a challenge, as you cannot see immediate results, but the images came out gorgeous and it was easy to visualize how I would apply what I learned in a variety of scenarios. I highly recommend working with Arielle!"

"I had already been working as a professional photographer for several years, but knew there were some gaps in my knowledge of professional lighting that I needed to know to take my portfolio to the next level.  Arielle consulted with me on equipment upgrades I could make, showed me several new lighting techniques, and gave me space and direction to try everything out in her studio and ask questions.  She generously shared her wealth of knowledge in a totally non-intimidating way. 

I now feel confident in my use of a portable studio lighting set up and already have several new clients because of it. "  - Cara of wonderbliss photography
