Shoey Sindel is our go-to photographer for head-shots, events, and personalized portraits. Shoey Sindel has a talent for relaxing her subjects to reveal their inner beauty and character and displaying those traits in the photographs. Many people tense up in front of the camera, but Shoey's inner calm and sparkling wit frees the most up-tight subject, of which I am one, to express the character within. Thank you Shoey. Probably time for a new head shot.

I had an amazing experience with Shoey Sindel Photography for my business branding session! Shoey made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and her professional yet warm approach helped me relax and enjoy the process. The photos turned out absolutely BEAUTIFUL and perfectly captured the essence of my brand. I highly recommend Shoey to any business owner looking to elevate their brand with stunning, high-quality images. She truly understands how to bring out the best in every image!!

I've hired Shoey twice now for professional headshots for my business. She listens to what I want, comes to the table with creative ideas, works collaboratively, and has a reasonable turnaround time for finished photos in multiple sizes for different media. I highly recommend hiring Shoey for your next campaign or headshots.

Shoey Sindel is a truly talented photographer. Most people tend to feel a little awkward with a camera pointing at them, but Shoey makes you feel comfortable and taken care of. She also gives excellent direction and has an impressive depth of expertise and technical know-how. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Working with Shoey was a great experience. I get nervous when I am being photographed and Shoey knew all the ways to get me to relax and get the best possible photos. The final photos ae amazing and very much express who I am. I can't recommend her work high enough and will be sending anyone I can her way.

As someone who typically feels uneasy in front of the camera, Shoey made us feel very comfortable taking family photos, as well as business headshots for myself and my husband. She came to our home, and captured our daughter's energy in our family photos, as well as professional photos for work. Her work is outstanding, and we wholeheartedly recommend her services.

Shoey is amazing to work with-I felt very comfortable with her and it was a natural vibe for me. We went to various locations and Shoey made sure that we got the best shots, she really knows the Bay Area sweet spots for taking photos. I have currently updated all of my social media platforms with my new photos. I will definitely work with Shoey again in the future. Sincerely,
