Reviews of Sharon Ward Photography (Photo Studio)

Sharon is wonderful and her work is outstanding. My daughter had her senior pictures taken by Sharon and we are more than happy with the outcome. Sharon provides location recommendations based upon client's preferences and even provides tips for what works best for clothing styles/colors. Highly recommend Sharon Ward Photography!

Kelly Katis

Sharon is amazing. She captures memories that will last forever. She listens to your preferences and works hard to achieve your personal goals and requests. She was willing to travel to destinations that mean something personal to you. Sharon has great ideas or recommendations on what to wear that would work for the occasion. She has been patient working with younger and sometimes difficult younger children...she has a bag filled with all sorts of distractions!! I would highly recommend using Sharon Ward... her pictures will capture your memories that will last for a lifetime.

Sharon recently took my son's senior pictures and they came out amazing! He was a little nervous and she made him feel very comfortable and he actually really enjoyed the photo shoot! Sharon is very professional and reasonably priced! I would highly recommend her for any photography needs you may have!!

Sharon is fantastic. She did senior pictures for both of my children. She’s so easy to work with and is great at communicating. She takes care of getting everything to the school yearbooks on time and in the right format. Best of all, she really was able to draw out my kid’s personalities during the shoots and the pictures came out great. I ended up ordering the little 12 picture folio in addition to the prints because there were so many good shots that I wanted for keepsakes.

What can a five time customer actually say that hasn’t been said so well, already? I fortunately became acquainted with Sharon “the photographer” over 7 years ago. Being a mom who tried to capture all the special moments of my children’s lives behind the lens of a camera, I realized that as the documentarian of my family, I was often left out of that record. Because I have never been comfortable in front of a camera, I truly came to appreciate Sharon’s gift for putting her subjects at ease and just seizing special moments that a family shares; the hug, the shared joke, the whispered secret. It is what keeps me coming back! Over the years she has developed her talent finding new surroundings, backdrops and lighting effects to continue to create beautiful outdoor portraits. How wonderful it must be to find your true passion in life! Click on, Sharon!

We knew we didn't want to go through the traditional photographer for yearbook photos - we learned our lesson after our oldest daughter was a senior. The shots and poses were so limited. Sharon was a great choice for our youngest daughter. She found amazing spots for the shoot that we never knew existed right in Nashua. It was a gloomy day but you would never know looking at the photos. Sharon did a great job capturing our daughter and her spirit. I am so happy that we found Sharon!

Sharon was fantastic! She worked with my children, 2 of which are in their 20's. Sharon made everyone comfortable and caught everyone in their most natural states, nothing was forced or fake. The snowball fight my husband and boys had was even documented during the session. I love my pictures and I can't say enough good things about Sharon!!!!

Elizabeth Marchand

Absolutely amazing senior pictures for our daughter! We couldn’t have been happier with the choices of locations for photos, professionalism, flexibility and absolute amazing ability to capture our daughter in the photos we will always treasure to remember her senior year. I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else to take them after seeing her portfolio and talking amongst the other parents! Can’t wait for her to take our youngest daughter’s senior pictures in a yew years! We highly recommend her!

Kristi DeLong

Our son loved to work with Sharon. She has such and artistic eye and worked well with someone who had definite ideas of how he wanted his pictures to look. They bounced ideas off of each other and came up with fabulous pictures that represented the essence of who he is as a person. They turned out even better than our expectations and I feel totally comfortable in referring you to anyone who asks. Thank you Sharon for your wonderful photos of our son’s life that we all will remember and cherish forever.

Last summer I called Sharon when my mother asked for a professional family photograph. We only had a window of a weekend when all our kids would be home. Sharon was away with her family for vacation but agreed to take our pictures on the Sunday afternoon she returned home. The beauty of Sharon's photographs is in part the natural settings she chooses but also in her ability to make all her subjects feel comfortable and enjoy the picture taking process. Sharon Ward is an exceptional photographer.

Sharon of Sharon Ward Photography is amazing and so wonderful to work with. If you need headshots, family photos or graduation pictures, I highly recommend. She makes it an enjoyable and fun experience and really knows how to bring out your best. I have used Sharon Ward Photography for professional head shots twice over the years and have been very pleased with both the sessions and the final photos.

I chose Sharon Ward Photography for some professional headshots I wanted to have done I’ve only ever had headshots done once before so I came into the experience with a certain expectation of how I thought it would go. Needless to say, my expectations were blown away. Sharon prefers to shoot in natural settings with natural light as opposed to a regular studio with backdrops. For our session we went to a local office park with some amazing lighting and ambience. I’ve never been the most comfortable person in front of a camera but Sharon kept things light and easy and was able to capture me at my most natural and at ease. She took me to several different locations on site and had me change clothes a few times to see me in different settings. The whole session lasted a couple hours but it was time well spent. She made sure that she showed me the pictures as she was going along and was very cognizant of my input and my preferences. When it was all said and done I had my gallery to choose from within a couple days. I chose five shots that I really liked and I made comments on edits that I would like to see done. I knew that she would do a great job editing, but even I wasn’t expecting just how great they would come out. They looked absolutely incredible. She was able to edit them without making them look photo shopped or altered, ensuring they still looked natural and real. She even was able to adjust the coloring of my tie a bit to better match the suit coat I had on. I was at a complete loss for words. Bottom line, I would highly recommend Sharon to anyone looking for an absolutely amazing quality photo shoot in a fun laid back setting. Her dedication to her craft is apparent in the quality of her work. Thanks again, Sharon.

My daughter had her senior pictures taken by Sharon. We had the most incredible experience. We had to reschedule due to weather and Sharon was so great. She made sure she called the school to make sure that we had enough time. When we actually took the pictures she made my daughter so comfortable and at ease. We took them at Beaver Brook in Hollis and the images she captured were amazing.

Nancy Foti

Sharon was a pleasure to work with. She was helpful and flexible when picking dates and locations. She even helped coordinate outfits. We are an unruly group (including a huge family dog), and she managed everyone beautifully. The resulting photos are nothing short of a miracle!

Karen Lennon

Working with Sharon on my daughter's senior pictures was fun, easy and inspiring. She made the photo shoot enjoyable for my daughter and she was flexible with the location. Viewing the proofs on her secure website is enjoyable from my own computer. Sharon offers a Facebook photo collage which was a great way for my friends and family to see the pictures. Her accordion book product has been a big hit; its small size makes it easy to carry in my purse and I can enjoy looking at so many different poses at the same time. Sharon's quality and professionalism make her the very best choice when choosing a photographer.

Beth Anne Reeder

Sharon did my twins senior photos and a family session last summer at Benson's. I am still getting compliments on the photos. We had a such fun with many laughs during the session. I highly recommend her photography!

Pat Whalen

My daughter was very specific about how she wanted her graduation photos to look. We looked at a number of photographer websites, and she saw what she liked on Sharon’s site — photos that had more of an industrial/city look. Sharon was wonderful to work with — patient, professional, and energetic. Her outgoing personality made my daughter feel comfortable and at ease so she could capture genuine/authentic (not forced) expressions. Allowing for outfit changes and experimenting with different poses and lighting resulted in so many beautiful proofs. We had such a hard time picking our favorites. I highly recommend Sharon!

Kathy Kendall

Sharon Ward is a fantastic photographer who has great ideas. Sharon has done my daughter's senior photos and my family photos which were absolutely beautiful. She is really patient, kind and creative. I would definitely recommend Sharon to all my friends. It is great to know a wonderful photographer.

Amrita Chugh

Sharon has been an absolute delight to work with. From suggestions for clothing colors to location and lighting, every step is planned thoughtfully keeping in mind the prospective clients. For my son’s senior pictures, Sharon advised the outfits that would work best for him. We were thrilled to see the final results and the personal experience she provided. Highly highly recommend her!!

Joy Devins

I don't consider myself a photogenic person and am usually not crazy about being in front of the camera, but Sharon put me at ease right away! She had a way of helping me find my comfort zone and to feel natural and confident in the poses we were trying out. I think her advice on what to wear made a huge difference too, since the colors we chose added so much to the looks. I loved being able to have two looks in one photo session. One look was professional, for things liked a Linked in photo. One was more casual for my blog. I also loved having some music in the background it brought great energy to the shoot! I also liked the fact that she shared the photos with me along the way so that I could tell her which ones I was most happy with and keep us going in that direction. I'm so happy with the results, it was so worth it!!

Sharon Kilduff

We chose Sharon Ward Photography after a good friend recommended her services. We had such a wonderful experience having my daughter's senior photos taken. The photo session was an hour and a half and during that time, Sharon Ward got to know my daughter personally and made her feel comfortable and beautiful while having her photos taken. We received 90 proofs to choose from and honestly, it was so hard to choose! Sharon Ward has a wonderful eye for lighting, scenery and poses. Even more special, was at the end of the photo session, she took a few pictures of both my daughter and myself. Sharon was very prompt in answering any questions I had about editing/cropping the pictures, ordering and how her photo gets in the yearbook. We ordered our photos on Monday and had the prints on Friday! There are not enough positive words to describe our overall experience. Sharon Ward has provided us with wonderful memories that will last us a lifetime!

Jen Trainor

What an amazing experience from start to finish!! I can't say enough great things about our session, from picking the best location, clothing to wear and what shots to take, Sharon knows it all!! My sons senior portraits are beautiful and I will forever treasure them..

Michelle Quadros

We had a wonderful experience working with Sharon. Her relaxed approach quickly put my son at ease during his session. She took so many wonderful photos - it was so difficult to choose just a few! Sharon is a gifted artist and a true professional. Can't wait to work with her again this summer!

Kaitlin O'Malley

My kids had a session with Sharon at Benson's park in September. We had a great time during the shoot, she really made the kids feel comfortable and allowed them to be themselves. Our pictures came out fantastic, we will be talking to Sharon soon about a family session!

Lisa Vander Heiden

Sharon was wonderful to work with. She took pictures of our one year old twins, which is a challenge in itself, and we are very pleased with the outcome. The family photos she captured are beautiful as well; we love them! Sharon was professional, had great outfit advice, and despite the weather, it was a fun day! We are new to the New England area and her location suggestions were exactly what we were looking for. I definitely recommend Sharon Ward Photography for any, and all, photo sessions.

Andre Lefebvre

Sharon made the whole experience very enjoyable. She was able to get me to relax in front of the camera - had a great time!

Sue Sheehy

Great to work with Sharon! She makes you feel comfortable. She helped with clothes choices. The setting and color were beautiful. She even tried to fill our special requests. Overall pleased with the experience.

Jodie Michon

Sharon photographed my daughter for her senior picture and my whole family for my parents' 50th anniversary. She did a great job with both! She was very accommodating in setting a date for my daughter---working with us around her soccer schedule. And she submitted her yearbook picture directly which was a big help! Sharon did a great job organizing the family clan of 16 into comfortable, natural poses with great results!!!

eric cormier

Couldn't be MORE happy with my boys senior photos. Sharon really knows how to capture the personality of her subjects. She is professional, personal and easy to work with. The quality of her work is top notch!! She is by far, the best photographer I have worked with.

Dana Schalk

When I decided to finally have our family photos done, it was Sharon ward photography that we called! She has a great reputation in this area and there was not a doubt I my mind that I liked her style. She was super easy to work with. I have 2 teenage daughters that are sick of me trying to take their pictures. I am constantly trying to capture the right expression from them. Sharon allowed them the time to be themselves. My husband and I walked away giving them the freedom to goof around and laugh a little. She was able to capture moments that I will cherish forever. We also have 2, 100 lb. dogs. Sharon felt comfortable enough around them to make them part of our family portrait and wasn't afraid to communicate with them! It was her humorous attempt at barking that got the attention of our dogs but really made the rest of us laugh and she got some of the best pictures I could ask for. The photos now light up the entry way in our home and I get compliments from everyone that walks through our front door! Thank you Sharon!!! Nancy and Dana Schalk

Debbie Bednarz

Sharon is a professional that always adds her personal touch, she did my older daughters senior pictures and when it came time to schedule my younger daughters, there was no question as to where we would go. During our last session, another photographer arrived well after we did and was done with their session well before we were. Sharon spends that extra time and never rushes through her time with you....both sessions were so much fun with a lot of laughs throughout. Sharon has got it down, wonderful experience coupled with beautiful photos.

Julia Greenspan

She is a fantastic photographer. I have used her for years for family photos and professional as well. She has a great sense of light in outdoor shoots as well as background and is very relaxed, even with misbehaving toddlers and young children like mine who were difficult to cooperate with looking at the camera with a smile. Would highly recommend.

Renee Moloney

Sharon has a true gift!! She helped my son feel comfortable and confident during his photo session for his senior pictures. She spent the photo shoot laughing and joking around with him which set a casual tone and resulted in completely natural pictures. I will cherish the shot she took of me and my son…she captured a moment.

Caitlin Porpiglia

Sharon was absolutely wonderful to work with. She captured beautiful moments of our family together (which can be very challenging with an active 4 year old and a dog)! This was our first time having professional photos taken and we couldn’t imagine having a better experience than what she provided.

Kim Montine

Sharon photographed my daughter for her senior portraits. She helpfully suggested a couple of outdoor locations which allowed my daughter to choose which place suited her. When she met us there, Sharon was adept at making us feel at home and comfortable. She spent lots of time trying various poses, outfits, and backgrounds and even included the family dog in a few shots. The results were beautiful -- so many were so good it was hard to choose.

Dee Dee Thurber

My daughter just had her Senior Portraits taken by Sharon. The session was done at Benson Park in Hudson. Sharon had so many great ideas at the park like using old buildings as back drops, flowers, stone walls and simply laying on the grass. The pictures really showed who my daughter was - so much so that taking a peak at the photos on her camera made me cry! I can't wait to see the finished products and I know it will definitely be hard to choose between the photos as so many are absolutely beautiful! I would highly recommend Sharon for any family portraits ~ she is truly able to capture the essence of the person she is photographing.

Brianne Chambers

Absolutely LOVED working with Sharon Ward. Our family pictures came out amazing. She was so helpful in every sense. She gave suggestions for clothing and location. She was also so great with my kids. They are 4 and 2. My daughter was a bit shy but Sharon worked her magic and we actually got the most beautiful pictures of her. She took the time to photograph my kids alone, me and my husband together and then all of us together. We had so many pictures it was hard to choose from. I highly recommend Sharon Ward Photography.

Carol Baldwin

I put off having a professional head shot for four years. But then I looked at Sharon's website and saw an ethereal quality about her work. My session with Sharon was fun and relaxing and I am so happy with my pictures. I liked her work so much that when we needed staff head shots for our new ALC website, we hired Sharon to do them. We are pleased with her work!

Jay Tifone

Sharon did a wonderful job producing some exceptional photos for our family. She suggested a great park as our location, gave us great ideas about clothing that would photograph well, and then hand-delivered our finished photos to us. Sharon's an excellent local business person who you'll be happy working alongside.

Ariela Torgersen

Not only is Sharon very talented and professional, she is a joy to work with. The senior pictures she took of our son were amazing!

Sue Joyce

Sharon photographed my twin sons for their senior portraits last summer. Although a hot and humid 95 degree evening, she displayed nothing less than professionalism. She was extremely patient with numerous outfit changes x two!! What I love most is the fact that she captures not only portraits but moments. It is the moments that we as moms only see but yet never think to capture ourselves. Her edits are touch ups are amazing and can honestly do just about anything you ask, so don't be afraid to speak up!

Tricia Glastetter

My son's senior pictures were taken by Sharon just this month. I thought it was going to be a challenge as my son does not like to be photographed. Not only did Sharon start up a natural dialogue with my 16 yr old son, but she created a very comfortable environment that brought about dozens of photos that I will cherish forever. Yes, as a mom of course I love seeing these pictures, but it wasn't just me that liked them- my son actually liked the pictures-huge accomplishment in my mind! Sharon asked questions about my son prior to us meeting so she could get to know him. And she gave suggestions on clothing and locations. During the shoot, Sharon spent close to 2 hours making sure she took a wide variety of photos with different backgrounds and lighting. Sharon always responded to my emails in a timely manner and made ordering the picture package a seamless experience. I would recommend Sharon Ward Photography to anyone looking to have priceless photos taken!
