Client Testimonials

"Sean is very friendly and professional. He is a great photographer, that takes his time to adjust lighting to fit each individual. He made me feel very comfortable at the photo shoot by guiding me how to pose and how to smile. I appreciate the fact that I got the pre-edited photo on the same day and the retouched photo within a day after I made my selection. I recommend Sean to all for those looking for a professional photo."

"Great experience!
Sean made this process very easy, professional and effective. He took lots of shots to capture the right pose and smile. Very happy with my final professional headshot which I can use for all my social media accounts.
I highly recommend Sean Phillips at Riverwood Photography."

"Sean met us off-site to do head shots and several group shots of our Financial Planning Team. He was able to direct us, keep it fun and navigate the foot traffic to get the best photos that really show us off in our best light. His service was superb and we are more than impressed with the photo-taking experience and the end product that he provided."

"I find smiling on camera can be awkward but Sean made the process easy and comfortable. I'm very happy with the quality of his work and would recommend him to anyone who wants a good professional social media profile picture."

"Attended a very busy Calgary DogFest with the intention of having updated family photos with the dogs. The group involved a senior, 2 adults, 1 mini dog and 2 giant dogs. Sean gave us some direction on placement and cues and it was so much fun. In the short session time we had many incredible poses done. In a couple of days we had the finished images ............ incredible, I'm so happy with them. Sean is a great talent to capture 6 moving targets and produce such candid images to treasure those moments in life. Catching a dog winking, OMG Ahhhhh. Thank you so much, I will highly recommend and use your service again."

"I spent many hours researching headshot photographers in and outside of Calgary. I chose Sean because his website stood out as the most professional and the most helpful.

My personal experience with Sean, both the photo shoot and the end result, was equally positive. Sean is professional and well organized in the way he conducts his business. And as a photographer he was responsive to my specific needs and requests. And he was a real pro in helping me, a camera shy person, relax and enjoy the photo shoot.

When I received my proofs, I had the happy task of having to choose between a number of excellent photographs."
