    Kerns Wedding Review from a Mom

    I recently hired Sheryl Blake Photography for my daughter's wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the results! Sheryl transformed our courthouse venue into something truly stunning, capturing the essence of the day beautifully. Her photos were not only classy and elegant, but she also made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free.

    What impressed me the most was her flexibility in working within our budget while still delivering exceptional quality. I wholeheartedly recommend Sheryl for any photography assignment; her talent and professionalism will surely exceed your expectations. Thank you, Sheryl, for making our special day even more memorable! We LOVE you.

    Proposal shoot!

    My fiancé and I could not be happier with how our photos turned out! Cindy did a fantastic job at capturing the moment, including the beautiful sunset surrounding the moment. She was very personable and ensured that we got every picture we had in mind following the proposal. We look forward to working with Cindy and Sheryl again.

    Beautiful Family Photos - flexible scheduling

    Sheryl was amazing. She has a tight schedule packed but is able to be flexible when you need it. I had a schedule conflict for our first shoot we booked and she happily moved it to another date. It was a different location but I’m so incredibly happy we moved it. The photos turned out beautiful. She is so good at telling everyone, including the kiddos, how to pose and place their hands where it looks natural but beautiful. We walked up to the end of the shoot before us so I got to watch her in action with a young toddler. She comes ready with goldfish and tricks to get the photos just right.

    Stunning Photos & Exceptional Flexibility – Highly Recommend!

    We had the pleasure of working with Sheryl for our wedding, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! From the beginning, she was super communicative and ensured everything was planned perfectly. Even when we decided last minute to have a second shooter, she worked around us effortlessly to make it happen. On the day of the wedding, she captured every moment beautifully—her photos are crisp, stunning, and truly tell the story of our day. She even made sure we had a photo of every guest, something we’re so grateful for. We highly recommend Sheryl for anyone looking for a talented and flexible photographer!

    Professional Hard Working Efficient Communication

    Sheryl was very professional throughout the experience from the very beginning sending out her contract to the day of the wedding making sure she got all of the shots she needed in our short 4 hour wedding. We appreciated her strict approach.

    She delivered more previews than I expected -A LOT - I’m pretty sure within 24 hours of the wedding - which was fantastic because it’s not really fun having to show iPhone photos to people asking about the wedding so I really appreciated those previews.

    I think considering the lighting and timing constraints, Sheryl got us a plethora of beautiful photos and we are very grateful.

    Thanks Sheryl!

    Truly stunning photos

    Sheryl did an amazing job on our wedding! She is a true artist and she knows exactly how to frame each moment to make it look like a work of art. I’ve never thought of myself as being very photogenic, but Sheryl helps instruct you where to look so it’s not as awkward. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos and I’ve really enjoyed looking back at them. She also did our engagement photos and they turned out beautiful. Thank you for everything, Sheryl! Your creativity and talent is unmatched.

    Engagement Photo Session

    I did an engagement shoot with Sheryl, and am so happy with the result! Sheryl was very responsive and gave us lots of great advice on what to wear. She was great to work with during the shoot and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, directing us how to pose. She has an amazing eye, and I absolutely love all the photos!

    Great photographer

    Sheryl Bale Photography took our anniversary pictures for my husband and I in early May. It was a nice hot day, she was flexible with time and location the pictures all turned out amazing. She is very organized and detailed on her poses she does that well especially with the size difference of my husband and my self. He is 6’2 and I’m 5’1. Love the pictures.
    Thank you Sheryl

    Amazing Photographer

    Sheryl takes amazing photos as you can clearly see. She makes you feel so comfortable and she is able to catch the most beautiful candid photos. Right from the first time I met her she seemed so familiar and we were instantly comfortable. She did my wedding photos and my sons second birthday photos! I would recommend Sheryl bc she truly portrays a story in her photos she takes. Nothing about her photos are generic and posed, they are all unique. Both my husband and son don’t like taking photos but she effortlessly caught such amazing photos of the both of them :) The icing on the cake is she gives you an almost instant preview and gives you the photos within days or weeks at most! You don’t have to wait months like some photographers which is such a plus especially when your like me and cannot wait!

    Amazing photographer, would recommend to all my friends!!

    Sheryl did a great job on our holiday photos and again on our secret engagement shoot. She’s thoughtful, truly amazing with her camera, and charisma helped us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera (great since my fiancé isn’t a big fan having photos taken). We’re looking forward to have Sheryl photograph at our future big events!

    What do we do with our hands?

    I can’t even begin to explain how lucky we were to have Sheryl along with us on our wedding journey. My husband and I have never been the type of couple that took “cute” photos together. One of us is either making a face or glaring at the other. The first time we had taken professional photos together was right before we got engaged. It was the most awkward experience ever. We needed so much direction and were the type of people that ask, “What do we do with our hands?”

    Once we started the planning process, we knew we needed to find someone that could work with the awkwardness and find a way to bring out the couple that could take good photos. Sheryl was recommended to us by a co-worker. We chose a package that included both engagement and wedding photos.

    The advantage of doing both with the same photographer is that you’re able to develop a relationship and really get to know each other. Sheryl is able to see how you are as a couple and really uses that insight to take the best possible photos of you.

    We did our engagement photos with Sheryl in San Francisco at the Palace of the Fine Arts and Sutro Baths. I to this day cannot believe that the couple in those photos are us. She made us feel so comfortable that we totally forgot what we were doing and why we were there.

    The wedding day experience with Sheryl was the best we could have asked for. Not only did she bring this incredible energy that helped calm our nerves, but she was literally the only reason I was able to successfully get into my wedding dress. She doubled as the most amazing photographer on the planet and my fairy godmother. We just got our photos back and they are better than I could have imagined. She was really able to capture the magic of the day.

    Working with Sheryl is so incredibly easy. She is full of life and her positive energy is infectious. She gives great direction and knows when to crack jokes at the most opportune time to get that candid laugh shot. If she can bring out the best in this awkward couple, she can do the same for you!

    Sheryl is amazing and wonderful to work with! My husband and I were 100% satisfied with the photographs and service provided by Sheryl and her team. Both the engagement and wedding photos were amazing! Numerous friends and family members have commented on how great the photos came out. On the day of our wedding, she was a true professional and went above and beyond. She very easy going, makes you feel comfortable and provides guidance. The end product exceeded our expectations. The day after the wedding she made a a handful of pictures accessible to us and were able to share them right away with our family and friends. I recommended Sheryl Bale and her services to anyone seeking an amazing photographer! She was by far our favorite vendor to work with.

    Sheryl Bale and her assistant Danny was great! A true pleasure to work with! I had a budget, DIY wedding and boy was she was totally able to roll with the punches! Climbing through bushes and mud, picking up crying babies, while taking pictures mind you, fixing my DIY photobooth, and politely working around my eccentric cell phone picture crazed guests… all with a calm demeanor and smiling face. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She got through all of my excel spreadsheet of pictures, and they turned out beautiful! Thank you so much!!!

    Comfortable excellence!

    Sheryl is professional, easy to talk to, and so kind. Our family is a bit uncomfortable in front of a camera, and Sheryl was able to get everyone relaxed and natural looking. Our photos turned out gorgeous! I will definitely have her take photos for our family again and highly recommend her.

    Beautiful photos

    Sheryl made us feel comfortable and made the photo shoot easy. She is patient and helped us with poses and making sure the lighting was perfect! We have beautiful photos to cherish for many years! I usually get nervous with taking photos, but she made the experience easy and fun.

    Amazing photographer

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Sheryl and I can't say enough good things about the experience. From the moment we arrived, she made my family and me feel completely at ease. It was clear that she has a true talent for not only capturing beautiful moments but also for creating an environment where everyone feels comfortable and relaxed.
    We usually feel a bit awkward in front of the camera, but Sheryl made the whole process fun and engaging. The session felt more like a fun family outing than a photoshoot.
    If you’re looking for a photographer who’s skilled, personable, and makes the whole experience enjoyable, I highly recommend Sheryl!

    Great photographer!

    I hired Sheryl Bale for my wedding back in 2016 and she was easy to work with and very professional. The photos turned out beautiful and since then, I have used Sheryl 3 other times for family photos. She works fast and gives you a link with all the photos taken. I have recommended Sheryl to friends and family and will continue to use her for future photos!
