"It is no surprise to see that some of the most successful lawyers in the Capital District depend on Tim exclusively for their professional portraits. I have obtained professional portraits with Tim both while in law school and while in private practice. Tim has been great to work with and delivers an invaluable, professional product. Having a high quality professional portrait as a lawyer, and especially as a young lawyer, has really helped me build my network. Most importantly for me, he always took the time to gain my feedback and input while taking each portrait and during the editing process, to ensure that I was absolutely confident with the final product. His editing skills and printing options seem to have no bounds. And, he’s fun to work with!" –Jillian D.K., Esquire

"I cannot thank you enough for all you did to capture our event last night. And I can say without reservation, you are the best photographer I have ever worked with! Every single one of your photos was perfect and spot on! I truly enjoyed working with you and without sounding presumptuous, would love to ask you to photograph the event again next year. Please let me know and save the date, 😊. It would be great to have the opportunity to work with you again! AWESOME job and light years better than past years' photographers ! Thank you again and all my best." Debbie Erck, Capital Region Chamber of Commerce, Events Manager [re: Capital Region Chamber Annual Dinner, March 2018]

"It was not only a pleasure working with Tim but he also produced great results. Tim is professional and attentive to all the details, from large to small, that impact photo quality. He puts you at ease in front of the camera and provides clear instructions on changes to pose and angles to provide alternate shots to consider. He’s a master at editing with the subject’s input immediately after the shoot to be sure you’re completely satisfied with the results. He also sends the finished product out extremely quickly, in multiple sizes so it may be used in a variety of formats. I now know why he was so highly recommended by colleagues." Sarah Lewis Belcher, Esq

"Hi Tim...Just wanted to send a quick note...your annual holiday card you created is absolutely hysterical! I have given your name out more times than I can count...love the portrait and am delighted to see it on my signs around town. Best wishes to you for a happy holiday season," Karen Glaser, Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker

Thank you so much! I love my headshot and had such a fun time working with you. I passed your information along to my colleague, VJ, who is also opening an agency next month. Thank you again! Best, Lindsey Giagni, State Farm

"I brought Tim a cut glass crystal eagle award to photograph for use on my LinkedIn profile. The eagle is perfectly transparent and the cuts polished so I believed that the statute would be extremely difficult to image. I presented the eagle to Tim and after studying the piece, he created an ingenious and innovative lighting scheme. The glass disappeared and every cut dazzled from within. The results are unimaginably beautiful. It is difficult to dimension the depth, innovation and perfection of an artist like Tim because everything he images is gifted with his lifetime of experience as an artist. Tim's professionalism, artistry and results exceed every expectation and I unconditionally recommend him for every photographic and imaging project." Donald Kuk

"Tim, In a world that at times can be challenging to receive exemplary customer service you have shown me there are still organizations that shine. As someone who hates to get their picture taken your professionalism, talent and quality was amazing.

I will definitely recommend you to business associates, friends and family." -Tina Green, Manager- Corporate Human Resources, ReEnergy Holdings LLC

"I have to say that I hate getting my picture taken. The awkward sitting, waiting, smiling, just to see if you can look somewhat normal. Tim, however, made the entire experience relaxing and easy. Half the time I couldn’t tell you if he was actually taking the photo or not. The end result was a fantastic." Caitlin Daly, CSArch

"It is a complete pleasure to recommend Tim as a photographer. From the very start, I was so pleased with everything he did to make it a seamless process. I had never met him in person beforehand. But his gorgeous portfolio & initial email conversation were enough to give us complete confidence in his personality, talent & vision. He took extra time with me and ensured I was happy and comfortable with the results. He is also a wonderfully sincere person, VERY professional, and took his time with me seriously. He outlined all modifications we could make on the photos to ensure they were polished yet natural looking. I will be using Tim going forward for family photos as well as recommendations to area SPHR’s who are in need of headshots." Alexis Teixeira, Human Resource Manager, CSArch

We look forward to working with Timothy for years to come."
– Donna Monyalto, New York State Chapter, American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

"Tim Raab has been my "go- to" photographer, rendering my life moments for over 25 years. Portraits, conferences and award dinners, newsletters and family photographs: Tim has the eye and attention to detail. Tim works with you so you project the image that you want to portray. He doesn't just snap your photo; he captures your essence. Whenever someone needs their photograph taken I am proud to say, “I have just the guy!”. Of course, that “guy” is Tim. I have referred people who need professional head shots, brochures, family portraits and event photography. Why do I think Tim is better than other photographers? He has an unassuming quality that puts you at ease in a situation that could make one self-conscious; he smooths out your clothes..may seem insignificant, but you never have a photo with a bunched up shoulder or collar; he gives you your photo in the correct size for LinkedIn so you can plop it right in without having to crop; most importantly, he works your photo to correct skin color, blemishes and has even been known to remove facial wrinkles from some photos." - Maryann Jablonowski, Strategic Sales Executive, HP
