We hired Astami for our engagement shoot. She takes natural and fun photos that come across as laid-back and vibrant at the same time. She recommended that I did not get my hair and makeup done and I'm so glad I listened to her - I looked like myself and not a pageant-ie manufactured version of my image. The engagement photos are a huge hit with us, our family and friends. She is a professional, kind and fun photographer to shoot with. It was so enjoyable to spend time with her and she will pose you, but in a way that is loose with little staging. We picked our favorite spots and Astami brought us and the surroundings to life through her photos. Thank you, Astami!

Astami is a great photographer with a great personality! My husband and I really enjoyed shooting our engagement pictures with her. She makes you feel very comfortable in front of the camera and her turn around time for getting the photos back to us was great. I couldn't believe the shots she was able to get. We couldn't have been happier with our pictures and everyone raved about them. She was also very reasonably priced. We will definitely be working with Astami again in the future.

As a photographer from NYC Astami came down to Washington DC to shoot some engagement photos for my fiance and me. Astami did a great job at directing us but was also open suggestions. She is very easy going and very sweet which makes you comfortable to work with her. Our photos came out beautiful and everyone I know loved them. The pictures were very romantic. She really captured the love and care Joe and I have for each other. I highly recommend Astami! We will be doing a party 2 shoot in NYC as a follow up. I\'m very happy!
