We had an incredible experience working with Midori! From start to finish, she was engaging, encouraging, and made everyone feel completely at ease in front of the camera. Her ability to connect one‑on‑one with each participant truly stood out—she brought such positive energy and helped even the most camera‑shy individuals relax and have fun.What really set her apart was the effort she put in before the event. She reached out ahead of time to ensure everyone felt comfortable and supported, taking the time to understand the look and feel each person wanted for their headshot. That level of personalization made all the difference.During the session, she created an atmosphere that was both professional and uplifting, helping everyone loosen up and show their authentic confidence.Highly recommend—she’s not just talented, she’s an absolute pleasure to work with!

Midori is absolutely amazing! We have been using her for the Fall Mini session shoots for about 4 or 5 years now and it is so amazing to watch our family grow in these photos. We use them as Christmas cards and get tons of compliments. Midori makes you feel relaxed and at ease during the shoot. She says the funniest things and asks the best questions to get my kids to laugh and smile. My kids are young and they've never complained during the photo shoot once because Midori makes them have fun. And the bonus is she brings little treats for us for after the session and it's always so amazing and nice. Couldn't recommend her higher!

We had such a wonderful experience with Midori. She captured our family so beautifully -- no small feat with a one-year-old and a two-year-old! The mini session was just 15 minutes, but she made every moment count. Her warm, inviting personality put us all at ease, and she made the shoot so much fun for our girls. The fall woods location was absolutely stunning with the colorful leaves, and she somehow managed to get genuine smiles from everyone.She was so communicative before, during, and after the session, and even surprised the girls with cake pops at the end -- such a thoughtful touch! We're absolutely thrilled with our photos and can't wait to work with her again for all our future family shoots. Highly recommend!

The mini photo shoot session with Midori was my first professional photo opp and I loved her style, chosen location, and playfulness with my toddler. The resulting photos brought me to tears with joy and I would 10/10 choose Midori as our family (and professional headshot!) photographer again.

Midori is a beautiful photographer. She has such a way to capture your most beautiful self in a picture. She's very patient and kind. I also appreciated her sharing her own personal story to help me feel relaxed. Don't think twice and don't miss out on a session with this one of a kind photographer. You'll regret it.

Amazing maternity photos! She really did a great job, even though my water broke during photoshoot.

Midori did our surrogacy pregnancy photo shoot and the shots turned out so lovely! She was very easy to work with - we had a call before the photo shoot where she asked us questions about ideas and our likes/dislikes to better prepare for the shoot. During the shoot she was good at direction asking us to move certain ways to make the angles and lighting perfect. Thank you Midori for the priceless memories

our photos came out so beautifully! Midori captured the love and uniqueness of our family. we will definitely be using her again in the future. she also made things so easy for the kids. genuinely happy faces all around!

Midori is professional, easy going, and made us feel comfortable! My husband and I are quite camera shy. She was able to create some fantastic shots to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. She was also very accommodating last minute when I asked her to shoot some head shots of me for my new business. I will absolutely hire her again.

She did my son's school pictures and we were blown away! We got so many pictures back, all looking amazing, in black and white and in color. I had to buy all of them. My son said he had fun taking pictures that day, and everyone who has seen them has loved them.

Midori Joy photography is my children's school photographer. Midori did a beautiful job capturing my kids this year for their spring pictures. My absolutely favorite! Ditch those big company school photographers and support our wonderful local photographers like Midori. Thank you Midori for offering sibling photographs for no additional charge and making this photo shoot that much more meaningful and special to our family. Our kids had a blast during their session! I have a child that will be soon transitioning to high school within the next years leaving behind her brother in middle school which is very sad for us. You can only imagine how much these pictures are to us. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Midori Joy Photography was recently at my sons school for fall photos and I could not be more impressed with how the pictures turned out! She absolutely captured my sons personality and managed to take some of the best photos of him ever taken! I had to buy all of the images because they were all so amazing there was no way to choose one over the other! I wish I could give 10 stars to this company! Wow!

2022-08-13T17:25:26.000Z

Midori does her art so well

2022-01-14T00:00:00.000Z

Midori is the real deal. Even if you are nervous about having your picture taken, she gets such real emotion and beauty from every subject. She is patient and kind and an absolute pleasure to work with. She did my son's high school senior photos, and I look forward to having her do our next family portrait. If you are searching for someone to take great photos for you and your family, seriously, look no further! She's wonderful!

2021-12-12T00:00:00.000Z

Midori was so easy to work with. We wanted a photo from our son's senior picture session to go with our daughter's senior photo. She worked hard to ensure we had the perfect picture to hang next to our daughter's photo. She also made my son feel comfortable during the entire shoot...something that isn't always easy for an 18 year old! All of the pictures were so wonderful we had a difficult time choosing which pictures to print. I highly recommend Midori Joy Photography for your next photo shoot!

Midori captured the heart and energy of our family in her work. We selected her over several other options and we couldn't be happier. We had a huge group of 25 folks for our family reunion and she gathered a little bit of information about each person before hand. I loved her personal and intimate approach and this was reflected in the final product. Midori was able to create the environment to bring folks out and in their natural state. Not only do the photos feel authentic and alive, we all had a great time during the process. Midori is a lovely human - responsive, reliable, kind and professional. I can't recommend her highly enough!

2021-06-10T00:00:00.000Z

Midori will impress you. I hired her for a professional project as well as family portraits. She delivered such awesome shots that really captured what was desired. The difference: caring to take the time to plan. For the professional project, she scouted a key site of the project to imagine lighting and scene options indoors and outdoors. She also chatted with me to learn about the project and what would represent it best. Similarly, for the family photoshoot, she spoke with us ahead by phone to learn about us and offer ideas for shots and props. She then captured the best expressions, personalities, dynamics, and ideas in our different photoshoots - with excellent use of background, props, and direction of the people being photographed. Not only am I fully satisfied with the outcome, but professional contact, friends, and family are impressed too.

2021-02-13T00:00:00.000Z

Midori takes beautiful photos, but she does so much more. She brings out the absolute joy that my preteens try so hard to keep hidden. My three boys are tough nuts to crack. But Midori makes them feel so comfortable and so at ease that they don't even realize the camera is there. Midori is professional and kind and QUICK. She will be our go-to family photographer for many years to come.

2020-10-22T00:00:00.000Z

I'm really happy, Midori made a great job, my family pictures was amazing, our little kids were comfortable and enjoyed. She is the best photographer in Reno Nevada.

2020-03-26T22:28:19.000Z

Midori is able to capture my kids' personalities in such beautiful and unique ways. She takes the time to help them relax and be silly so that they're not posing with frozen or fake smiles. We're so grateful for her gentleness, kindness, artistry, and expertise!

Did an amazing job with my family photos, which included a toddler and a newborn, so not an easy job! Very professional, highly recommended!
