I cannot recommend Colorful Tales Photography enough! From start to finish, Priya was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was incredibly professional, organized, and responsive, making the entire process seamless.
What truly sets her apart is their ability to handle the elements. We faced some tricky outside weather for our shoot, but she didn't miss a beat. She was patient, used the natural light beautifully, and kept a fantastic, positive attitude the entire time. My family and I truly enjoyed the experience and the final photos turned out wonderfully —they truly captured the magic of the day regardless of the conditions!
If you are looking for a talented, dedicated photographer who can deliver amazing results no matter what Mother Nature throws your way, look no further!

We had the most wonderful experience with Priya for our holiday family photos. From start to finish, she was kind, patient, and incredibly talented. She made our whole family feel comfortable and relaxed, which truly shows in the photos. The images turned out absolutely beautiful—natural, heartfelt, and perfectly capturing our family in this season of life. We will treasure these photos for years to come and can’t recommend Priya enough to anyone looking for a gifted family photographer.

My first interaction with Priya was when I reached out to her for a maternity photo shoot. Within a few minutes it felt like I had made a new friend. She is warm, inviting and supportive in all the best ways.I told her my idea and she executed it to perfection. I texted her incessantly for days before the session and she patiently went over the outfits and accessories that would look best.
On the day of the session, she went above and beyond, helping me into my outfit and even bringing out an iron to make sure the pleats were just right. She brought out other options and took pictures of me in them because she knew they would photograph well. Throughout the session she made sure to give me breaks and make sure I didn't exert myself.When I saw the pictures, I was blown away by how good they looked. I've recommended her to many friends and family since then!

After having a wonderful experience with my maternity session, I asked Priya to do our son's newborn session as well. She also did a Fresh 48 session in the hospital a day after he was born.
During both sessions, she was warm and encouraging, helping us exhausted parents handle the newborn and look for any cues that the baby was hungry or tired. She made sure to take her time being gentle with the baby and did not rush the session. At no point in any of the sessions did we feel rushed. She did her absolute best to get as many pictures as possible of the baby.
The pictures came out beautifully and we are so glad that had her capture these precious moments.

We’ve had the joy of working with Priya multiple times for both our friends group photo shoots and our family photo sessions, and every single experience has been truly special. She has a beautiful way of capturing real, meaningful moments that we will cherish forever.
Her patience is something we deeply appreciate. She makes everyone feel comfortable, takes her time, and creates such a calm, positive atmosphere, especially with kids. She also listened carefully to our ideas for backdrops and went above and beyond to bring our vision to life, which meant so much to us.
Her creativity, kindness, and dedication shine through in her work, and we are always so grateful for the moments she helps us preserve. We can’t wait to work with her again and wholeheartedly recommend Priya to anyone looking for a photographer who truly cares.

So happy to have found Priya through the Christmas minis that she was offering! She was very patient with our very young daughter and we had wonderful photos and they came in just in time to use for our Christmas cards. I would highly recommend you work with Colorful Tales Photography!

My family and I did a photo session with Priya. She was very nice, professional and had some great ideas for our photo session. We loved our pictures and I would highly recommend her!
Priya did a fantastic job with our baby boy’s newborn photo shoot! She provided a very welcoming and calming atmosphere, and was able to get my sometimes fussy/colicky baby to sleep for some stunning photos. She even caught one of those rare smiles! Our photos were done super fast and looked perfect. Highly recommend!
My husband and I came across Colorful tales photography after doing an intensive search of newborn photographers in the DMV area. We're so happy we came across Priya studio! From the moment we reached out she was nothing but amazing, answering all our questions as new parents and also listening to our vision.
It was important to us that we found a photographer that would take their time with our child and not rush and Priya did just that and even had some tricks and suggestions to how we can calm our newborn down! We are still using those techniques today!
Would totally recommended her studio to family and friends! Our pictures also came out so well!

Priya did our daughter's first Bharatanatyam photoshoot. From the beginning, we knew we had made the right choice to get dance pictures for our daughter. Priya worked with us in choosing the right costumes for our entire family. She was very attentive and easy to work with during the photoshoot and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Her passion for photography shows and we are very delighted with the outcome. Would totally recommend Priya in a heartbeat!!
Had a wonderful experience with Colorful Tales Photography! Priya was extremely professional, patient, knowledgeable, and kind. Her years of newborn photography experience are evident in her clear and quick communication, professional setup, and wide variety of poses and options. I loved all the photos she took of my two week old and would definitely work with her again!

We had an amazing experience getting our son's newborn photoshoot done by Priya. She's extremely professional and prompt with her communication and work. She had multiple conversations with me and guide me through the whole process. She helped me choose a theme/look to make the photoshoot look beautiful. Our experience at her studio was amazing as she had stocked up on everything the baby/family might need which was very thoughtful. She delivered the pictures ahead of schedule and the end result was beyond perfection. I recommend her to anyone looking for a newborn photographer, she will make sure the experience is thoroughly enjoyable and give you memories for a lifetime.
