Andrew & I have run across paths for several years through different events. I had been curious for some time of what he could do for me & decided to finally do a session with him. I held onto this purchase for sometime not scheduling the actual shoot due to never being "ready". I hesitated because of my own self perception. He pateintly kept in contact & we concluded the session this past summer. I felt so comfortable with both him & his partner in business & wife Arlene. They are a natural fit in what they do together. Their work is amazingly magical with how beautiful everything turned out. I'd recommend this company to anyone.Worth every penny

Now I do have to say the photos that were taken looked great ( when I got to see them at their studio ) Now if I can only get them would be great. My photo shoot was done in February 2020 I had taken a lot of time and effort to prep for the shoot and got myself down to an 8% body fat. As most people can imagine that was a lot especially given my Age 45 at the time. After the photo shoot I was not properly informed at the beginning that I would have to pay for the pictures and they would have to be put on canvas or in an album which is at extreme cost $5800. I have offered to pay them for a digital copy but they refuse..I’ve even gotten a lawyer involved and I still have not been able to even get my photos. If you are looking to get your pictures taken professionally I would highly recommend going somewhere else and checking with them all their cost before commencing. If you would like to know more about my experience please feel free to contact me on Facebook...

They do such beautiful work and their back yard is like the Garden of Eden! They made my 2 yr. old pup, Chick Pea, and myself feel so relaxed and at ease that my little girl was the perfect little model for the entire 60 minute shoot. I highly recommend Andrew and Arlene. They are such lovely people.

Amazing photography, so cool this is a family affair to your studio. such a warm and inviting space to come and be photographed at. The option of your rich garden space gives us so many natural options.

Arlene and Andrew were such a pleasure to work with! I was nervous when I showed up for my boudoir shoot but they made me feel so comfortable that I easily relaxed into it and actually really enjoyed it! I really appreciated the time and effort that they spent to make the photos perfect. I could not be happier with the results, the prints are beautiful and I would highly recommend them for any type of shoot. Their combined eye for detail, ease to work with and a beautiful home studio really set them apart!

It is disappointing I can only give 5 Stars to Photoart by Simpson as they produce Award Winning Photography time after time. Andrew and Arlene Simpson are dedicated professional photographers in every aspect of everything they do to create and capture the perfect image for every client. The phrase “Good enough” does not exist for either of them. Working with Andrew and Arlene is so much more than a photo session, it is an experience.

I have used Photoart for both professional and personal photography, and the quality and detail of their work is outstanding.

Tim Hall

Top-notch work and super detailed. I had my business head shots done for my social media banners and website at Photoart by Simpson and they do outstanding work. Photos turned out great and they help with every step of the process making it super simply. I highly recommend Photoart by Simpson for Business and Personal work and will use them again.

I want to thank Andrew and Arlene for the amazing experience our family had making a dream come true for me of having all 20 of our family together in one picture. First they made a special exception to do the session on their day off at a time convenient to us, when our out of town family members were visiting and available. We loved how much fun they made the session, and therefore how much more relaxed and natural it helped us be to get good smiles. As we not only had photos taken of the large group of us, but each of our grown children with their families, and also just my husband and i together and then also us with all our grandchildren etc., we were amazed at how fast and efficient they were at changing the seating arrangements. This really helped so the session did not drag on a long time for our 11 grandkids between the ages of 1 yr and 16 yrs. I was amazed at how Andrew, not having met any of our family but me, seemed to have an intuition of the perfect placement and how to capture personalities in a special way. I am thrilled with the results.

I was thoroughly pleased with the level of professionalism of the photographers! I was unable to experience an in person interaction, due to moving out of city, but the correspondence via email was friendly, informed and I would highly recommend this studio!

Caroline Phillips

I have been lucky enough to have experienced the master of photography, Andrew Simpson! There are a lot of photographers out there, but no one has the eye for detail like Photoart. The professionalism, and the time they take to get to know you is captured in the moments that I will treasure forever. I am very grateful for the art they have created for me. I highly recommend Photoart by Simpson and I can’t wait until my grandson is old enough to “Visit with Santa”.

Matt Shirlaw

Awesome high-end photographer, had some photos of my family taken this Christmas and they turned out amazing. Exceeded our expectations. Andrew and Arlene are true pros with decades of experience. Highly recommended!

Brandon Zomar

Feeling pretty ripped off after receiving photos from Photoart by Simpson. We ordered 3 VERY expensive framed photos and one of the photos weren't what we chose. Upon calling them to discuss this, they did not return our call, but proceeded to withdrawal our remaining payments.

Leslie Jane

Our overall experience was wonderful. Their in-home studio is absolutely stunning, and Andrew and Arlene were very professional and personable and friendly. We had a big group and lots of little kids and the session was painless! It felt a little stiff and posed during the session but the end result actually looks very relaxed and beautiful. We had family in from out of town on short notice and they were incredibly accommodating and flexible. When we returned to choose our photos, the experience was amazing. We sat in a comfy room and Andrew William helped us narrow down our favorites by zooming in on specific faces, comparing similar poses, and slowly weeding out the ones we didn't like. It wasn't nearly as difficult to choose as I figured it would be - and I am very indecisive! The finished product is very cool. Gorgeous frames with photos that are printed onto some sort of photoboard stuff. So, no glass. Which looks amazing. At first we weren't crazy about some edits they did to our eyes, but they were very willing to adjust them and they said satisfaction is guaranteed. Overall the finished product is great. It's an heirloom-quality keepsake. This isn't a photographer where you order paper prints - they create the whole piece for you - you choose the frame and the finish and they create their art for you. Highly recommend visiting their studio and taking a look at the finished products/pricing beforehand so you get an idea of what they do.
