Kambua is an incredibly gifted portrait photographer who is able to capture the essence of a person. Her ebullient personality sets you immediately at ease and allows you to be your most unself-conscious self. She has an intuitive understanding of light and deep technical knowledge of photography. I’d give her a 10 if that was an option!An update to my review: Kambua encouraged me to do a portrait session last year as part of a physical and emotional healing journey for me. The session itself was fun and energizing and was indeed the healing I needed. The portraits (attached) helped me see myself in a completely different light. I have one of these portraits up on my wall where only I can see it to remind me that, flaws and all, my body is beautiful and perfect the way it is. Thank you Kambua for helping me see myself in a different way!

Kambua is like family to us. She does a great job of directing the subjects to take fantastic portrait photos and action shots. She's taken hundreds of really great photos of my daughter and I together.Kambua's also taken some amazing photos of wild life from Kenya that are hung up in our home. She has a great eye, a kind and fun personality, and is very patient when it comes to taking great photos of people.Her skills in editing have also improved tremendously over the years and a single headshot session has resulted in new outcomes as she develops new skills.Kambua is the best.

Kambua is an excellent photographer. Spontaneous, energetic and kind, who with his energy finds a way to get the best out of you when shooting the camera. As a professional, she has two arts: the art of photographing, and the art of teaching. 100% recommended.
