The staff was able send the same invoice, lay out the same outfits, apply the same makeup and build the same set for each of them! Andi took the exact same shots at the same angles
Downright Tingly
On May 4, 2016 by Andi RobertsHow did I get so lucky? These women are just a few of the main characters in my life that I enjoy nearly every day! The crew of Hot Tomato Portrait Studio & Parlor are crazy-special. Throughout the last few years, I have heard some version the following sentiment over and over.
“Wow, it really looks like you have an amazing team! You all have so much fun and I love how you encourage and empower women!”

Queen of Heart
On March 20, 2016 by Andi RobertsIt’s not every day that you get to host a Queen’s Tea… but this is Hot Tomato Portrait Studio, where the extraordinary becomes possible. Bring out the vintage linens!
This story starts back in November of last year with a client named Julia. Always full of energy, Julia fast became one of our favorites. “This is the most fun I’ve had in years!” she’d exclaimed during her third wardrobe change. When she later asked if we could host a very special Sweet 16 party for her daughter, Aven, we were delighted to accept and knew it was a perfect fit for our family brand, Roberts Family Photography.
Finding new ways to celebrate milestones all throughout women’s lives is kind of our thing. <wink>
