Three Sticks Photography

We had our first family pictures taken this month with Denise and it was straightforward, easy, and we have great pictures! She was flexible in terms of the when and where for our shoot, the pricing was affordable, she was playful with our infant to get him to smile, the turn around time was super quick, and again, we have beautiful pictures now. We will gladly shoot with Denise again next year.

No doubt the best, BEST photos I have of my kids were taken by Denise! Her rapport with children will have any not excited about a photo shoot basically performing for her by the end of it. She is friendly, efficient, & charges reasonably… In 30 minutes she will give you what you asked for and some of what you didn’t know you wanted. In short, HIRE her!

I’m not one to write Unilocal reviews… in fact, this is only the second one I’ve written… but my experience with Denise of Three Sticks Photography compelled me to take the time to write one!
Denise has done my head shots and has shot both of my dogs. None were easy feats. I was sick with a 102 fever, and you’d never know it looking at them! She recently shot my 10 month-​old untrained puppy. I don’t know how she did it, but the photos came out great! She completely captured all facets of his charming personality. Perhaps it was a combination of her talent and the duck noises she made to get his attention?!
Denise is my go-​to from here on for all of my personal and corporate photos (in fact, my company is hiring her to do our headshots).She’s the utmost professional from booking shoots through timely delivery of the final product. She did what she said she was going to do when she said she was going to do it. The final photos are of the highest quality. And did I mention that we had fun?!

Three Sticks Photography was contracted by the Unv. of Chicago to take photos for 20+ PhD students going onto the job market. The photos were to be taken over the course of an entire day. PhD students pose multiple challenges for a photographer. They don’t know how to tell time to make an appointment much less know how to tie a tie. They require a lot of hand holding. Denise (photographer) handled all their goofiness with grace and produced some terrific photos for us.
Our business matters were clearly stated and straightforward. There were no surprises. She guaranteed delivery within a short period of time and beat that deadline.
Three Sticks Photography provided us quality and dependability. We will be using Three Sticks Photography again.

Denise did the photos for our wedding. Not only did her price include the whole day (which was AMAZING) but she sat down with me ahead of time to help me come up with a plan for how the day should flow. I really appreciate her input and it helped me see how little time I was putting aside for getting from place to place. Everyone in my family was so pleased with how she organized the big group shots. She caught so many great moments. I couldn’t be happier with her and her service. I highly recommend her, whether it is for your wedding day or just a quick photo shoot!

We have used Three Sticks Photography numerous times for our family photos and are always very pleased with the pictures. So much so, that I have them plastered all over my house because I love looking at them so much! Denise is professional, creative & fun to work with! She is extremely talented and loves what she does, which you can see in the final product. Even though we have moved out of the city, we still make the 40+mile trip to have her take our pictures. Do yourself a favor and call to set up an appointment today, you will be glad you did!
***UPDATED REVIEW 10/​22/​15*** We just had another photo shoot with Denise this past weekend & the pictures are incredible as always! My family is OBSESSED with her work and we already have the new pictures up all throughout our house. Denise had such talent and a passion for what she does — check her out! You won’t be sorry!
