I love Joseph Carroll Photography! I have been coming here for several years. I am very picky and particular when it comes to photographs/portraiture. They' have done an incredible job with my personal and business portraits.The quality of their portraiture is excellent and there is nothing like it in the area. It's traditional, unique and very classy. Carroll's portraitures are timeless and classy. In the blink of an eye and through her heart-warming touch she will capture the essence of YOU. This takes years of expertise to achieve a level of excellence, but also and more importantly a soul connection

This is the level of photography that creates a timeless work of art for your family, of your family! We have taken many photos here through the years and are so happy to have these gorgeous pictures of our children! The staff is always super helpful and accommodating. The studio is versatile and amazing with many on site outside locations and private, comfortable dressing rooms! From exquisitely stylized baby pictures, high school senior photos, engagement photos or mommy-to-be photos, they just know how to bring out the best in all situations! Seriously our children have had photos done here

I was so excited to get my granddaughter senior pictures and I was in the Temecula mall. I fell in low with the quality of the pictures and so I bought two $50 gift certificates to be used in the near future.

Shortly before my granddaughter graduation her and I went shopping for the perfect outfits.

The day came and we went to have her photo shots done and I was not happy from the start. I decided not to say anything because she knew what she was the professional and she knew what she was doing. She handed a gate her to hold and my granddaughter asked me why and I assure her the gate would work

Wow!! PERFECTION I highly recommend everybody to go here and get your family photos or adorable and memorable photos taken here. I went with my family and had a great experience! Out of all the places I've been to get my family photos taken this is by far the best experience I've had. They know how to make you feel confident and comfortable about yourself and taking the photo. they are great with detail. They take anything from just the basic Family Pic, elegant, romantic, adorable, and creative photos. Every setup and every surroundings they use including props was Perfection and creative. 110

I have endless good things to say about Carol, her husband Joe, and the amazing quality of their photography. My family has been doing photography with them for over 20 years and I can tell you from personal experience. Carol can do it all! She has done our family pictures, my brothers football pictures, my sisters wedding and even retouched up the coloring on my fathers vintage fishing pictures. Their team of photographers are incredibily talented with all ages of children and always have a smile on their face. My mother and Carol did business together for many years as Carol captured hundreds

We have been using Joseph Carroll Photography for many years. They are our go to family photographer to capture our family, children and pets each year. She has photographed both of my children from birth and have the gorgeous photos to look back on the pictures you will get from this photographer are not ordinary printed pictures, they are canvas masterpieces and always gorgeous. The portraits and picture books are pieces of art that our family will treasure for years to come. I would highly recommend Joseph Carroll for your photography needs. I would also recommend the fairy and mermaid series

Carol has been photographing myself and family for over 20 years. Her studio is big and beautiful. She has tons of back drops, props and costumes to chose from. She even has an outdoor garden where you can have your photos taken as well.

Carol is so creative! She is always coming up with new fresh ideas and keeps up with today's trends. My granddaughter has been a Mermaid, Spring Fairy and even did an eerie "Toys in the Attic" theme just to name a few.

Thank you Carol for all the beautiful portraits and a lifetime of memories!

Ever since I happened across this studio's "fairy sessions" work, I've been hoping for a chance to have my grandchildren's portraits done by these geniuses. It finally happened in July. I can't begin to convey how much the three of us enjoyed the session, but the end results are just breathtaking. My granddaughter got to be a mermaid, for crying out loud!!, and Carol just brought out the best (ham) in her. My grandson got to get a little funky with a hat, which he thought was VERY cool. And the results.... no words. Just awesome. We had a great time, no rushing

This studio is amazing. Situated in a charming location for indoor or outdoor sittings. Year after year they out do themselves on our family portraits. Creative backdrops, fresh poses, attention to detail. The experience is just so much fun! Carol is professional yet engaging as she captures the perfect and unexpected poses. From the moment you walk in the door, to when you preview your shots and then the anticipation of the portrait ready to hang in your home...you have truly experienced a wonderfully family owned and operated photography studios.

These photographers have EVERYTHING you could possibly want for a baby to child's photoshoot. I mean WOW! The studio is an entire gorgeous ranch style property and there are little "sets" everywhere! They have thought of everything from an awesome reception with tons of truly gorgeous photos that they have taken. My fave are all of the fairy pictures - CRAZY amazing. Then, there is a super comfy waiting room with toys (THANK GOD), magazine, pictures everywhere. Also there's a nice bathroom and an adorable dressing room with an attached HUGE

We had my parent's old wedding photo restored back in December just in time for Christmas. The picture was faded, dull and square shaped. We hired Joseph Carroll to restore the picture and put it on a canvas type to print. Needless to say i was in complete SHOCK at how well it turned out. My mom burst into tears of joy when she opened it up Christmas Morning. I would recommend this company to ANY and EVERYONE looking for either photo sessions or restoration services. and for those who think this is a plant, by all means email me!
