Linda Kleineberg Photography
I would like to thank Linda for helping shoot our engagement / proposal, in Newport RI. She not only captured our event with high quality photographs, but her "hands-on" approach, helping plan out the event, far exceeded my expectations. My proposal idea was to stage a fake photo shoot at one of the lighthouses in the Newport area. We would then stroll by, and come across a photographer taking shots of a violinist, with the lighthouse and harbor as the back-drop. To my girlfriend's surprise, the violinist dedicates a song to both of us, as I drop to my knee, taking my finance by total surprise. That was the plan. Not from the area, and unfamiliar with Newport, working out the details, made this a bit challenging. However, Linda was extremely helpful, identifying the location, providing me with instructions on how to approach the site and even coordinated with a hired violinist the set up and logistics. As with any outside shoot, the weather is always a factor which prompted me to ask for the flexibility for a rain-date. Linda agreed and luckily we had a back-up plan. The morning of the event, the weather took a turn for the worse. At 7am that morning, I reached out to Linda via text and asking to push the proposal to the next day. Linda responded immediately and confirmed we are on the same page. The next day, the sun was back out and beautiful. As hoped for, the proposal went off without a hitch! The photos and video not only captured the moment but we are very impressed with some of the more creative shots, using the landscape, shadows and lighting. What is very important to me, when selecting a vendor, is punctuality. Even though Linda was busy with other photo shoots, she always responded quickly, to emails, texts and calls, leading up to the event. Given the complexity and coordination needed for this shoot, communication was significant. Thanks again Linda for all your help. As the photos show, Quyen was totally surprised ! You made our day very special. Quyen and I will treasure them forever!
