“We had 4 generations of women between 6 months and 94 years old. Allan was great working with us. We had a good time at the shoot. He was professional in guiding our poses, and was patient when the baby needed a break. He worked with the natural light and then set up his own "studio" at my mother's building. He had all the photos to us promptly.”

“Company photo shoot. Allan Mestel was responsive, punctual, professional, worked well with our group of 40+ capturing the shots we requested in a very short time frame. We appreciated Allan's creativity and suggestions, and we received the photos by the requested date. We were happy to find Allan and will be contacting him again in the future!”

“I had a great time. Allan made me so comfortable and had me laughing the whole time. Zero awkwardness.”


“With two moving children ages 1 and 2-1/2, one not cooperative at all, Allan did a great job capturing our family of nine on the beach. He was great communicating via email, phone and text during the bid, booking and day of the session. He was also very prompt providing our finished photos at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended photographer!

“Allan was wonderful to work with, from the initial contact to the final image! He understood what I wanted and was very professional and kind during the photo shoot and in each communication. I recommend him to anyone looking for professional photos, headshots, journalistic photos, and more! In fact, I will be getting family photos done with him soon! Thank you, Allan!”

Kati J.


“Allan was wonderful to work with on my daughter's senior pictures. He spent even more time with us than was promised in our contract getting great shots on the beach as the lighting changed. The final pictures turned out beautiful and he has continued to spend time helping resize some of the images and helping us with additional printing for her graduation announcements. We are thrilled with the portraits and how he captured our daughter's personality. We will hire him again for any future events and would recommend him to anyone!”

“Allan’s passion for what he does radiates from behind the camera, and is captured in his incredible, and emotion provoking shots. A true professional, and artist.”

“We had our engagement photos done by Allan and it was a great experience. They turned out better than we could have ever imagined and we can’t wait until our wedding day to have him there capturing the moment!!”
