What Clients Consistently Say
After 216 reviews, clear patterns emerge in what clients say about working with me. They talk about walking in nervous and walking out with the best photo they have ever had of themselves. They talk about a session that feels more like a conversation than a photo shoot, with direction at every step: posing, expression, and the little details like a stray hair or a crooked collar. They talk about image quality, the kind of light and retouching that earns compliments on LinkedIn for years. And teams and organizations come back because every headshot in the set looks like it belongs with the others. That consistency is the point: a process built around making you look like yourself on your best day.

"Marquel Yvette Photography did an AMAZING job with our family photos. We are three generations in one home and the images Marquel captured celebrated all of us; from the youngest to the oldest!❤️ Thank you!"
"Marquel did a fabulous job on our annual family photos and my professional headshot. I was worried about my 2 year old, because she doesn't like people taking pictures of her. Full Stop. But, we watched an episode of Sesame Street about photographers, so she understood what was going to happen. . .and Marquel was able to bring out the best in her. She was able to capture shots full of personality, that we will always treasure. She did a great job of editing with a quick turnaround. I highly recommend her services!"
