HIRE HER! Don't think twice! Larissa is an incredible, talented photographer capable of not only taking excellent photos, but bringing a depth and nuance to her work as an artist. I am absolutely over-the-moon with what she captured in her photos of my kids yoga classes! I also appreciated how well she kept her calm demeanor amongst the chaos that is elementary school students. Larissa maneuvered around the group regardless of the formation we were in and did so seamlessly and without affecting the flow of activities whatsoever. What an amazing combination of professional talent combined with a soothing go-with-the-flow attitude. INCREDIBLE. 5/5 for SURE!
