Client Testimonials

"Sean at Riverwood really knows how to get a great shot. His friendly, fun approach puts you at ease and ensures that you look your very best. He pays attention to the little details that make all the difference. Sean has given me my best professional photo yet. Riverwood has my unqualified recommendation."

"I have worked with Sean twice now for a Unified Basketball event and look forward to working with him again in the future. Sean is professional, eager, and easy to work with. After both events, he was quick to send me great quality pictures."

"A great experience; Sean was very responsive to an urgent request without any impact on quality."

"We used Sean for a LinkedIn profile picture and a family picture. As soon as we reached his studio, he made us feel welcome and at ease, and gave us a whole bunch of really good suggestions. We actually had a great time doing the photo shoot, and to top it of, the results were fantastic. There were so many good shots to select from that the selection process became extremely difficult (which is a good thing:)) We needed these pictures processed fairly quickly, and Sean was extremely cooperative about it. All in all, it was a great experience. Thanks so much Sean!!!"

"Sean from Riverwood attended our Association of Administrative Professionals dinner meeting to perform headshots for all attendees. He was skillful and receptive to what I wanted to get out of my headshot. I would most certainly use Sean again, overall fantastic experience and great pictures to last a lifetime!"

"Sean was extremely good to work with. He puts you at ease and takes the time to not only understand what you are looking for in a professional photograph but also why, ensuring that the right image is captured to help you build your brand."

"It was a pleasure working with Sean right from the booking process. I had all my questions answered then got my ideal appointment. I had fun during the photo session and my new headshot is the very best version of me. I love it! I will definitely be booking a family session soon!"

Sean came to us highly recommended as a commercial and portrait professional photographer, and it was great fun to work with him. We have held various photo sessions with Sean for commercial photography at our operations location, as well as headshots and business portraits at our corporate office in downtown Calgary. Thanks to his technical oil and gas background, Sean was quick to grasp and showcase the technical aspects of our technology's capabilities. He also quickly developed a rapport with our corporate team, masterfully capturing both their approachable and friendly nature and our office’s modern interiors. We look forward to continuing to work with Sean and would not hesitate to recommend him as an outstanding photography professional.

Very professional and easy to work with. Took the time to properly set up the equipment and lighting to get the best result. Quick turnaround of finished image.

"We recently engaged Sean to do a corporate event shoot for us which can be extremely difficult due to the varying light factors and all the fast moving parts of an event that require a quick and exact eye.

Sean was extremely professional and was able to catch each moment and scene to my expectation creating a story board that was a true reflection of the event.

The mark of a great photographer is being able to recognize and capture the shots that will bring the viewer into the moment, as well as experience the moment even if they had not attended the event. Sean was able to do this effortlessly. I would not hesitate to recommend him for future projects."

"We are repeat customers of Riverwood Photography for professional business shots. We were so impressed with the quality of the shots, that we asked Sean to take family photos at our home. Sean was attentive and patient with our family including three children and pets, scoping out the best locations for the shoot. Sean took many shots for viewing, and helped us select some amazing photos with the appropriate finishes/frames for our family. We would highly recommend Riverwood Photography for your photography needs."

"My experience with Sean was through Right Management. He took over a dozen shots of me in order to get a great business portrait of me. I found Sean to be well-organized and pleasant to work with. I appreciate how he took the time to ensure that he captured the best photo of me. I would recommend Sean to others."
