TESTIMONIALS

Paula is amazing. She did my first maternity shoot at the beach nearly three years ago. Paula made my husband and I feel very relaxed and comfortable during the shoot. We received so many compliments on how beautiful our photos came out. Recently Paula did another beach shoot of my family (me, husband, 14 year old, 2 year old and 7 month old girls) which I thought would be nearly impossible. We all had so much fun and she captured amazing photos of the family that we couldn’t be happier with. We have another shoot scheduled very soon that we’re looking forward to.
Paula is very responsive and the turnaround time to receive our photos after each shoot is extremely quick. Her prices are very reasonable too!! Highly recommend her.

Paula is amazing at what she does. She works hard to get our kids comfortable and to get them to smile and it shows! I highly recommend her, especially if you have kids! The pictures she takes are beautiful and she makes the sessions a lot of fun!
— Ciara Lane
“I’ve always been an avid photography lover and since having our first little one, I’ve felt it absolutely necessary to have a professional capture all of our most memorable moments. I ADORE Paula’s style of photography and editing! I feel that they immortalize these moments with my family in the best way possible; natural and loving 🥰 I can’t recommend her enough. She’s so great with my little ones and aside from being an amazing photographer, she’s and amazing person and mom as well. We drive all the way from Port St Lucie just for her photo sessions and I look forward to them all because she’s so enjoyable to be around, makes you feel comfortable and I know the photos I’ll be receiving will be beyond beautiful!”
— Melanie Kenney
It really meant a lot to me to be able to have photos of my family that really express our individual personalities and style as a family. We didn’t want cookie-cutter posed portraits with an exchangeable background and no thought put into them, and you more than delivered that for us! Thank you again so so much, we are absolutely in love with the pictures you captured❤️.
— Nikki Lang
Paula is great, we have called her on three occasions to take the pictures of our family and every single time she has done an amazing job. We are so happy with the pictures and she is a pleasure to work with, very relaxed, super nice experience!
— Laura Cueto Estrella
We had such a wonderful session with Paula! She made us feel super comfortable & was so down to earth. The photos were absolutely perfect- more than we could’ve asked for! The farm was so peaceful & every inch of the property is picture perfect (doesn’t hurt that a rainbow showed up for us!!). Paula’s aesthetic is impeccable & her mini sessions are a true value for the quality of images you receive. We eagerly look forward to future sessions to document and celebrate the growth of our family :) thanks again Paula!

The best photographer in the world. Paula captures the life and soul in the pictures. I recommend Lasting Expression Photography for all your occasions.
— Ileana de la Torre
Paula did an amazing job capturing some really great pictures of our family. She made it fun, engaging and natural for our kids to make some silly faces, by asking cute questions through out the session. Loved her style! Had a great time doing the photo shoot and LOVE all the pics!
— Hayley Smith
Paula is everything I would/could have hoped for in a photographer as well as a business person. She runs a great company and is very professional, which is an added bonus to her amazing photography. She captured my welcoming home photos when we brought our 3rd little girl home from the hospital and it was an amazing experience. Thank you for such breathtaking images of a moment I hope to never forget. Paula, your art is on the walls all over my house!!
— Leslie Goodmanson
Just the best! Captured my sisters wedding showing all our craziness that we are! Couldn’t be happier with the pictures! Thanks Paula you’re the best!
— Megumi Nozaki
We recently had family pictures taken by Paula. If you have ever tried to take pictures with a cranky 3 year old and a teething and irritable baby, you’d know that getting a nice picture of everyone looking and SMILING (not crying) is nearly impossible. My husband and I couldn’t get both kids to cooperate... Paula stepped in and was not only successful at getting my 3yr old to comply, but was really creative about it. I really didn’t know what to expect when Paula sent us our pictures... but let me tell you, my jaw was on the floor in amazement. I couldn’t believe it. I was at the photo-shoot and I don’t remember us all looking so great and smiling in unison lol. Thank you Paula for capturing this special time in our lives. You are so incredibly talented and we will cherish these pictures for forever!! <3
— Lizet De Moura
I was so stressed over getting family pictures done this year. I was referred from another wonderful photographer that had moved. I immediately contacted Paula. Her website was so easy to use, I scheduled everything in 5 min, even messaged with her a few times with questions, she responded quickly and we worked together to figure out my needs for our photo session. We met and got started with the pics right away, she was sweet, funny, made everyone feel comfortable & most importantly, we had a great time! We got all the poses that we wanted with our large family in a short session. She was very prompt with her editing and I had plenty of time to order my Christmas cards to send out for the holidays! Thank you Paula for making it fun and less stressful! We will definitely be reaching out to you for any of our photography needs in the future. Very pleased with all the pictures, loved every one of them!
Love, The Vititoes

We had the best session with Paula @ Lasting Expressions!!! She captured our son in all his innocence. We adore his photos. Thank you so much.
— Rachel Stanley

“I proposed to my girlfriend of 7 years at Son’s and Daughters and I could not have pulled it off without Paula’s help. She directed a group of over 20 family and friends and helped us capture a truly unforgettable moment. The proposal took place a night, and even in the dark, Paula’s pictures came out clear and beautiful. I still can’t believe we actually pulled it off. Thank you for everything, Paula! You have a true gift.”

— Thais Arsolino

“Paula has a great eye and wonderful way of bringing out a family connection in front of the camera. I loved the mini session pictures. We will treasure them forever.”

— Yvette Morales

— Joaniris Ruiz

“THANK YOU SO MUCH for an amazing photo shoot! Paula is great at what she does. My engagement photos totally blew me away! They exceeded my expectations and completely fulfilled my wildest hopes and dreams for my session. She was also very patient with my toddler and did a fantastic job of making her smile in our photos. I would 110% recommend her to anyone!”

— Melanie Kenney

— Sasha Shutlman

“We are so happy how everything turned out! Thank you for everything!!!”

— Sonia Dykes

“We had our holiday mini session in 2016 with Paula, and I was very impressed and put at ease with how professional and engaging she was with all of us especially our kids Hannah age 4 and Benjamin age 2. My son loved the ladybug on her camera which helped bring out his excited smiles :) Our session was flexible, precise, creative and lots of fun! Would definitely recommend Paula as a photographer and also as a friend ”

— Rebecca Davies

“Paula (Lasting Expressions Photography) did our First 48 session of our little man. I could not have asked for a better photographer to capture his first hours. To top it off, she put together a BEAUTIFUL video. I still cry every time I watch it!! Thank you Paula for forever freezing these moments and allowing us to relive them over and over again! ”

— Melissa McCormick

“When I asked Paula @ Lasting Expression Photography to take some pictures of my office Acupuncture and Wellness of The Palm Beaches, I was extremely impressed! She arrived on time, she was prepared and got right to work. She quietly walked around the space finding opportunities to take pictures of things I didn’t even think would have mattered. When I saw the pictures I was overwhelmed with joy! She surpassed my expectations and I highly recommend her. Thank you so much Paula.”

— Leanne Mitchell

“Paula, AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! I couldn’t be HAPPIER with my photos! What an amazing photographer! She isn’t just any photographer, she really gets to know you and catches the special moment in that very moment. HIGHLY recommend Paula!”

“You created art with your photography from this birth and I would highly recommend you to families considering birth photography. Your presence was gentle and you captured the story so perfectly.”

— The Orchid's Nest

“Absolutely amazing!! Definitely recommend Lasting Expression Photography. Paula is very professional she dI’d such an awesome job with my daughter’s Quince pictures. She looked stunning and all thanks to Paula D’Amore. Thank you for making this such a memorable experience. I definitely look forward to working with you again.”

— Janet Morales

“Words cannot describe how honored we are to have had Paula document the birth of our daughter. Birth is a very intimate and sacred event. Having the right birth team meant having a support team that we trusted and felt comfortable with. We immediately knew that Paula was the woman for the job. Every time we use her for a shoot, we are amazed at how smoothly the session goes. Paula is so organized and passionate about what she does, it hardly seems like work!

The night of the birth, I called Paula at 2am to let her know I was about 8 centimeters. She was at our home ready to go 30 minutes later. I hardly noticed her while I was laboring. She was so respectful of our peaceful home birth environment. The very next day, Paula sent us a sneak peak of the shoot! It was incredible- beautiful and artistic, capturing real emotion. Just one week later, our photos and videos were ready! She was just as anxious about getting us the photos as we were about seeing them for the first time!

The final pieces are more than we could have hoped for. Paula is truly a gem. Can’t wait to use her for our Big Sister, Little Sister shoot! ”

— Julie Rivera

“Where do I start?! First off, Paula did our engagement shoot... It turned out amazing! She had us meet her on a location she knows and is familiar with at the perfect time of day. The sun cast just the right amount of light/shadow. Some photographers just take pictures but Paula gives direction to make sure she captures the perfect moments in time and that you look your best. I was so happy with the photos that Paula caught, she came back and photographed my wedding. The pictures were beautiful! Not only that but she put together an entire package of photos, video, and used our wedding songs to personalize it even more!
It wasn’t long after our wedding that I became pregnant with our baby. Without hesitation, I contacted Paula again to do maternity photos and ended up ordering a package deal with the Fresh 48. Absolutely stunning! I did underwater maternity... First of all, an amazing experience... Secondly, Paula’s patience and creativity were center while she worked with me to capture the images I wanted and some she thought I would love. She was right! She asked me if I would consider doing underwater nudes... It took me a few minutes to get the nerve but I’m so happy she presented the idea. They’re my absolute favorite pictures from the shoot that caught true essence and beauty of my pregnancy. Furthermore, she came out to the hospital’s location to do the Fresh 48. She made sure that I was up for the shoot, trying not to be too persistent or pushy. She really worked on my timeframe instead of hers which was refreshing despite being on call for another birth around the same time. She brought props with her to capture some special photos with our little girl. I will always call Paula for any photography work. She is consistently professional and amazing. I’m glad to know her and her beautiful work.”

— Brandy Owens

“I can’t say enough great things about Paula and Lasting Expressions Photography. She is so professional, so kind and patient with my little ones during our shoots, and she always, always gets us ALL to smile! Her talent and artistic eye has captured some of the most beautiful pictures of my family that I will treasure forever. ❤️ She is amazing!”

— Vanessa Siska

“Five out of five stars!

Our family enjoyed another successful, stress-free session with Lasting Expression! We knew we wanted Paula for our family/maternity photo shoot after working with her for our daughter’s 1st birthday photos. However, I had my concerns about being so far along in my pregnancy. I texted Paula a week before the session stressing about what clothes to wear, my size, you name it. She could not have made me feel more comfortable at 37 weeks pregnant! I went into our session feeling more confident and beautiful than ever. The photos turned out so natural, capturing everything we wanted and more. I am amazed by her talent every time!

We cannot thank you enough for bringing to life all of the love our growing family has for each other. So honored you will be capturing the birth of our little girl!”

— Julie and Victor Rivera

“Paula did our maternity shoot. My husband and I had a lot of fun and could not have felt more relaxed with her. We have received so many compliments on our photos. Paula is very responsive and the turnaround time to receive our photos after the shoot was extremely quick. Her prices are very reasonable too!! Thank you Paula! ❤️❤️❤️”

— Francesca Llopis

“My family won a mini session! Paula captured exactly what i was hoping for my family - pure joy and love! The photos are amazing and I can’t wait to hang them in our house for everyone to see.”

— Katie Chiet

“I had the best experience with Paula and I couldn’t be any happier! I’ve been having horrible, I mean horrible horrible luck with photographers so I had a very low expectation (sad to say) when it came to our photo session; was expecting either poor quality photos, unaffordable pricing and/or an extremely long turn around time with poor communication. I am happy to say that she exceeded and went above my expectations! Not only did she accomodate me at a time of great need, she maintained her professionalism and kindness. My BIGGEST issue with working with others is that they do not respond in a timely manner...I NEVER had to worry about that with Paula. She was quick to answer all of my questions, very personable, kind, and most of all kept me updated along the way. Again, I’ve been burned down to the ground by photographers so I am very ecstatic and soooo happy to write this review for such an amazing and professional person! I look forward to capturing many more memories down the road (with the help of Paula of course). I would highly recommend Lasting Expression Photography.”

— Kierra Swearing

“Paula is a wonderful photographer she did our sons 1yr old cake smash pictures. She worked on getting the best angles for awesome pictures. Paula captured the moment just how we envisioned it. We loved all the pictures she took that it was so hard to just pick a few, needless to say we ended up buying the whole gallery. I highly recommend her! We will definitely do more photoshoots with her!”

— Stephanie Aviles

“Paula has the most kind heart and an eye for the beauty that exists in the world but more importantly the beauty that exists the cycle of life – pregnancy, birth, newborns and families. She has a way of capturing this beauty which creates the most spectacular memories for families to treasure for the rest of their lives and to pass down to the next generation. Paula makes doing business with her easy. She makes her clients feel like they are her only client. She gives herself to her profession and that is evident in the stunning images that she creates.”

— Krystal Perrine

“Paula was able to capture some beautiful photos of my little one and me that we will treasure forever.”

— Ciara Bone

— Leslie Goodmanson

“I had decided to have my pregnancy announcements, maternity, birth and welcome home photos done with Paula from Lasting Expressions Photography. Paula is amazing she is professional, creative, talented, very reasonable, has an amazing eye for details. She was able to get the proofs to us with in the first 2 days. They all turned out beautifully! We couldn’t pick our favorites from all 4 sessions we had done with her. I don’t think there was a single photo We didn’t love. We absolutely loved our experience with Paula! I can’t wait to use Lasting Expressions Photography again in the future!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

— Shannon Gregory

— Ashley Frodge

“We had the most wonderful session with Paula to celebrate our new daughter meeting her extended family. It was a VERY windy day on the beach but Paula perfectly captured our wild bunch (all 11 of us)! We treasure the photos she took and each of us has a canvas of the group shot hanging in our home. We would recommend Paula to anyone and everyone. She was a pleasure to work with and we look forward to future sessions!”

“Paula is an amazing photographer and great making everyone feel comfortable and confident! She not only photographed my baby girl when she came home from a long 10 day Nicu stay, she also organized a meal train to ensure my family was fed while we went through a very difficult time. I will be forever grateful for that.”

— Elissa Hilt

“It is no exaggeration to say that Lasting Expression Photography has been the best photography service we’ve worked with. Paula shined in all aspects of what you look for in a shoot — her performance in the shoot itself, the quality of the photos, and the price.
Our little one has had photo shoots before, but each photographer had trouble keeping her engaged or being able to get candid shots. LEP was able to do both. Paula went above and beyond what could be expected during the shoot, not only getting our LO to smile and look at the camera, but doing whatever it took to get the shot. By the end of the shoot, my daughter was holding her hand and walking her around, which I would have never imagined based on her attitude towards previous photo shoots.
The photos were of top quality, and my wife and I could not be more pleased. We ended up going for so many extras that it nearly doubled our package size, as they were all so good! Not only did LEP get good photos, but the poses and setups were varied, and so many of the candid shots were great as well. Add in that Paula has a great artistic eye and superb editing skills, and needless to say our whole family is asking for photos they can frame.
All of this at a VERY reasonable price. We got a lot of photos and a lot of time for what we paid. Never did we feel rushed during the shoot, either. We had no problem springing for the extra shots... all in all, an amazing value.
Not only that, but Paula was a pleasure to work with every step of the way. From coordinating the shoot, to the shoot itself, to choosing the photos we wanted, everything was done professionally and we never felt like we were waiting. She even fulfilled our special requests without hesitation.
I cannot recommend Lasting Expression Photography enough. She has earned a repeat customer for all of our future shoots (and baby #2, whenever that is!) Thank you!”

— Mike Andrito

“I could have never imagined how perfect me and my fiance’s pictures were going to be! I was nervous and afraid I would have a hard time picking any pictures I like but as soon as we started the shoot with Paula, she had the best way of making us comfortable and laugh and brought so many great ideas to the table that I would have never thought of! I was always stunned at how incredible her pictures from all of her other shoots were and was equally as speechless when she sent us our pictures SO quickly. I wanted every single picture she took, I had the hardest time even narrowing it down to a few dozen! You would think that photography is the only thing she has time to do because that is how motivated and dedicated and quick she is with every aspect of her clients and their photos. I’m the sister mentioned below.. and I cannot wait to see how amazing she does at our wedding! Paula I can’t imagine ever using anyone else! Definitely hire her and let her prove to you how special she can be to you and your family like she did for me!”

— Holly Paquette

“It was such a pleasure working with Paula for our daughter’s 1 year-old photo shoot!
We had photos taken with a different photographer a few months prior and swore off photoshoots for good! It was such a stressful ordeal! A friend recommended Lasting Expression Photography ensuring that families and babies are Paula’s forte. This could not be more accurate! My daughter absolutely loved her! Paula was so natural, calm, and organized throughout the entire session. She was flexible and prompt which was great for our napping schedule. She also bought the cutest props for an added bonus. We are so happy with the final pieces!
Taking pictures of our little girl is no longer a stressful event! Thank you, Paula, for capturing the sweet little expressions and emotions of our daughter!!”

— Julie Roberto Rivera

“Paula did a mommy and me mini summer shoot, and it exceeded my expecations! They were wonderful! She did such an amazing job capturing the connection and pure love that my daughter and I share. I’m so happy that I did these and I have these memories forever. I will recommend her to everyone. Also she kept me up to date with when my photos will be done and was very fast with giving them to me which I loved!! Thanks Paula!!!”

— Karissa Sclafani Ojeda

“Love Lasting Expression! She has done several family shoots for us including our engagement shoot! She makes sure she gets the perfect shot over and over and is totally open to whatever ideas her clients have! Will definitely book her again and again!”

— Jessika Rios

“Where to begin... It’s so hard now a days to find a photographer who is truely passionate about what they do. Most times it feels almost robotic where they say “get in this pose now turn your head a bit that way” LE is the exact opposite of this. Capturing the moments as they happen naturaly, picking perfect spots and using a slew of cameras to get all the perfect angles. You truely get much more then what you pay for when you book here and I will gladly be coming and refering for a long time to come.”

— Digno Moriyon

“Paula is so sweet and did a wonderful job. She photographed me having my belly casted during my pregnancy and the photos were so nice! She is very professional and a joy to be around.”

— Kayla Kristine 

“I had so much fun getting my last pregnancy captured by Paula with Lasting Expressions Photography. Paula is professional, creative, talented, very reasonable, has an amazing eye for detail and framing(btw she knows all of the best locations). The pictures were sent to me almost immediately after the photo shoot. They all turned out beautifully! I don’t think there was a single photo I didn’t love. I can’t say enough great things about this photographer. Each picture perfectly captured the emotion only a mother knows! You will absolutely love your experience with Paula! I can’t wait to use Lasting Expressions Photography again! As a matter of fact...... I just hired her to photograph my birth & welcoming home baby shoot!!”

— Briley Natasha Tomlinson 

“Paula is INCREDIBLE. She’s so organized, professional, prompt, and great with setting a relaxed mood for your shoot. Shes especially good with getting kids to open up and be themselves. She edited and sent our pictures in an extremely timely fashion, and I’ve not yet even mentioned how BREATHTAKING the pictures themselves are. I can’t imagine ever using anyone else. My sister is even wondering about what Paula could do with a wedding, potentially. Her prices are better than most photographers, and it’s money WELL SPENT. Two thumbs up.”

— Lindsey Ripley

— Nikki Drake

“Paula is such a great photographer. Captures the moment just how you want it to be. She is great to work with. Highly recommended! Can’t wait to get more pictures done with her!”

— Stephanie Aviles

“Paula is very talented and patient photographer! The session included my husband, my two children under 3y and myself. It was an outdoor shoot and of course the sunny day turned into cloudy with a sprinkle of rain. I was sure the pictures would just be okay, at best. But I was sooo wrong. Every picture was beautiful and so well captured! Paula has a great eye and is very creative. I highly recommend Lasting Expression Photography!! Can’t wait for our next session!”
