Delarosa Photography

Carol is the best photographer around! She takes time with you in the studio and our portraits have always been outstanding! Despite the fact that the studio is 45-50 minutes away (on a good day) we won't consider using any other photographer. Carol has photographed our family from the time our son was in kindergarten, continued throughout the difficult tween years, did his senior portraits, a three hour session and he didn't even grumble and junior and senior prom pictures. (By the way, for senior pictures you have to use the school's photographer for your child to be in the year book. Buy their smallest package. Then, for really great senior portraits see Carol. Your teen will have senior portraits that reflects who they are and they won't end up looking just like everyone else.) Most recently she responded to the ultimate photographic challenge of a seven year old girl, a ten year old girl, a teenage girl and teenage boy when we wanted a portrait of the grandchildren for my mom. Because she is so comfortable with all ages of kids she was able to make the little one, the tween and the teen girl all feel pretty and grown up without out alienating the lone boy. Even though I have always known Carol as a family photographer I turned to her when I wanted a business portrait and was very impresses. I looked natural, professional and polished. And, like always, I looked better in the portrait than I ever do in the mirror. How does she do that? Pros: Really creative, takes time, great with kids Cons: North Raleigh Location more

Please see ALL the reviews on this studio. She apparently feels comfortable taking your $ and not offering a product in return. All it takes is a little professionalism to ensure hapy customers. Cons: Yea, no. more

I have been having my son's portraits as well as family portraits done by Delarosa Photography since my son was born 10 years ago. She has always taken the time to make my son at ease and as a result the portraits have turned out beautifully. We have been having our family christmas cards done by her year after year and have always been pleased. Our friends and family tell us how much they look forward to getting our Christmas cards because they are so creative and beautiful. There has been times because of our busy holiday schedule that we've only been able to come in for our christmas pictures just a few weeks before christmas and yet time and time again, Carol is cheerful and patient and never makes us feel rushed. She has consistently gotten our cards to us in time to send out for Christmas, even if she has to personally bring them to us! I don't know any other studio that would actually deliver to your door in a pinch. I know whenever we need a family picture that Carol's professional work ethic and integrity will consistently provide us with the best possible portrait. I can't recommend Delarosa Photography enough! She has captured our family history with beautiful portraits that are sure to become family heirlooms passed down from one generation to the next! Thank you Carol and Delarosa Photography for all you've done for us over the years and I look forward to working with you for years to come! Pros: Always professional and creative more

As the owner of DeLaRosa Portrait Studio, I want to thank all of my clients that I have helped create beautiful portraits for the past twelve years! Pros: individualized service and time to create a treasure! Cons: none... more

Carol is a wonderful photographer that makes you feel right at home in her studio. My pictures came out great and I would recommend her to anyone. She was referred to me through a friend who was also happy with her children's photos. North Raleigh location is great for me as well. Pros: Attentive, Great Location more

Do not use this studio. My son also had T-ball pictures made here and we have never received them. I have left many messages requesting they return my calls just to let me know something, but they have never called or sent the pictures. These pictures were made nearly 5 months ago at the Salvation Army and we were told they would be back before the season ended in early May. This is a very dishonest place! Cons: Never received my photos. Refused to return my phone calls. more

I actually won a $500 portrait sitting w/ this photography studio and went there with my sister and our children to have a family portrait taken.(for an anniversay present for our parents) We were told our photos would be ready in six weeks. We paid for additional portraits that were not included as part of the prize package. It's been eight weeks now and no word on our portraits. I've left several messages and sent and email, but have yet to hear back from her. I would not recommend this studio AT ALL! Cons: don't use! more

This company took my 5 year old sons tee ball photos during the season (may) and were told we would have them near the end of the season (may). We have yet to recieve them ( Aug. 10) and we can now not get an answer from them by leaving messages, etc. Everyone pre-paid so at this point we are out $20.00. Some parents bought packages of $50-$60 and have yet to get the pictures or hear anything from this company. That is all I need to say as a recommendation!!!!!! Pros: Fraud Cons: Fraud more
