Love, love, love Clarine Smith Photography! Terry is honestly the best photographer I have ever worked with. Her photos are true pieces of art. She edits all of her photos and I am really not kidding when I say that they are works of art. She manages to get the most amazing, natural shots and is extremely patient with fussy kids. My one-year-old didn't want anything to do with having his picture taken on they day we went. I was really worried we weren't going to get any good photos of him. But once I got the completed photos I was absolutely floored. You would never have guessed that he was fussy at all. They were beautiful pictures. I don't know how she does it. My three year old on the other hand just thought she was the greatest thing since sliced bread. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her for all of our family photos.

We loved working with Terry! My daughter was not very cooperative, but you would never know that seeing the final pictures! The editing that was done is amazing. We can't wait to use Terry again for our next portrait session!

We are very happy with our pictures by Terry! Her creativity and ability to catch a precious candid moment was well worth our drive from Dallas. The portraits are beautiful too - we are so glad we used her and HIGHLY recommend her. She's great!

I would highly recommend Clarine Smith Photography. I recently had pregnancy pictures taken with my active toddler. Terry was patient and did a great job capturing some great pictures with an active little girl who didn't want much to do with sitting for a picture! I love her editing style with the pictures - she edits each one and really makes the pictures "pop". On top of that you can't beat the price. She even recommends a professional site to print pictures. I had these made as a surprise for my husband and he was blown away by the pictures! I am going to schedule my newborn session as well as all our future family portraits with her. Make sure you give her a call!

Terry is AMAZING! I will never have our family pics taken by anyone else. My son was not cooperating the first go-round, and she scheduled another session for us! She is so flexible and laid back! Even though he wasn't cooperating the first time, Terry managed to capture some great pics and the make-up session was even better! I HIGHLY recommend her!! Amazing!!!

Terry did portraits of me and my 2.5 y-o to celebrate his adoption. She's really talented! It was easy to relax around her and have fun getting photographed. The portraits came out beautifully. Definitely five stars!!!!!

I had her do pictures of my 4 year old for her birthday. Clarine was professional yet personable, and the pictures that she got of my daughter were amazing. Even after my daughter stopped cooperating, Clarine got some classic pictures of her. Plus, the detailing and effects that she uses are always so creative and beautiful. I can't wait to get pictures of our new baby and our whole family done by her.

Terry is AMAZING!! She did my daughter's 6 month pictures, and she was so patient and laid back. The pictures turned out beautifully, and we have gotten so many compliments on them! We love Terry's work and will never use another photographer! In fact, we've already scheduled our daughter's 1 year pictures!

My daughter was donating her hair for Locks of Love and I brought my kids to her for a photo shoot. She was very personable, great to work with, and I LOVE the pictures!!!!! Everyone in my family loves the pictures. I'll be using her again soon. Thanks much for creating beautiful pictures for me.

Terry did my daughter's 3 year old pictures and they turned out absolutely stunning! I love her style and her approach with the kids. She will also be doing my maternity pictures in a couple of weeks and I am sure that those will be great too! I would recommend her to anyone and in fact, I have! At least 3 of my friends have been to her on my referral and all of them have been extremely pleased with their pictures!

Terri is an amazing photographer! I was visiting my mom in Dallas and we decided to have my son's 6 month pictures taken. A friend pulled up Terri's website, and I was floored. Every picture was beautiful. I emailed her to set up a time, and she emailed me back right away.

During the session she was very patient with my wiggly child! She had great suggestions, and got the best out of each "pose." Each picture was very natural and captured the looks typical of my son.

There is no other photographer in town that will take such beautiful pictures, edit them creatively, and then put them on a c.d. Terri is worth every penny, and more!! I have told every mom and mom-to-be about my great experience. In fact, I have booked a special trip to have our 1 year pictures taken in the fall!

After finding Clarine on Mamasource earlier this year, we've already used her services TWICE! She is SUCH an amazing photographer who has an eye for the perfect shot. She's so wonderful with little kids and babies as well as with large families. We all just felt so comfortable and welcome with her. She gave us more than plenty of beautiful, artistic shots and is really reasonably priced. We'll never use another photographer except for her! She is absolutely the best!

I drove all the way from downtown Dallas to Frisco to have pictures of by baby boy taken by Terri - and it was so worth it! The pictures of my 9 month old turned out beautiful, even though he was not really up to a photosession on that day. I will definitely go back. The only regret I have is that I wasn't aware of her earlier, I should have gone to her for pregnancy and newborn pictures! You need to go see her, believe me you won't regret it and the price is right. Check out her website.
