"Judi has been photographing non-profit events on a monthly basis for 805 Living since 2004. She's great at getting quality, candid shots of people, and also loves shooting event details. Judi is 100 percent reliable and has the highest level of professional integrity. I feel totally confident having her represent the magazine and I often get feedback about how buttoned-up she when she's on assignment. She always gets the shots we need, even when the conditions are challenging.” -Lynne Andujar, Editor, 805 Living

"Judi is absolutely the best photographer I ever worked with. Lots of wonderful things happen around us all the time; being able to see is easy, but being able to capture that very moment in a photo is probably the hardest part. Judi realizes that a good photo is comprised of many variables, not only does she click the shutter at the right time but she helps you compose the shot so that your best attributes show. ??I am very demanding when it comes to the photographs that I want from a particular occasion, often times these photographs will be utilized in publicity, advertising, or as my expressions of thank you to an individual for their participation in a project, charity or event that I have organized. To work with me at times is not easy. Judi is a professional that takes the time to understand why I want a particular shot and advises me as to the best angle and method to achieve my goal. I cannot recommend her highly enough for her talent and professionalism as a photographer.”-Rosemary Allison

“Judi is an extremely talented photographer who takes each job seriously and works with her clients to their satisfaction. Judi is dependable, on-time, conscientious and fair. Her creativity and "eye" for an interesting and memorable photograph shows in every image that she produces. Judi does not settle for an average job...she works to perfection. "-Terry Bucknall

"Judi is one of the most pleasant vendors we have ever worked with. We used her for an ad campaign for our companies Valley Aire and Tri County Heating and Air, and the pictures, composition, framing and quality were perfect. But working with Judy herself is the best part. She brings out the best in people because of her gentle personality, yet takes charge so the shoot is better than you ever expected.” -Janine Montoya

"Judi has always exceeded expectations and takes exceptional pride in her professional responsibilities as a photographer. She always gets "THE" shot you need. Calming and fun to work with, Judi makes it easy to be yourself; a difficult translation to image for the ordinary photographer, but not for Judi. I cannot recommend her highly enough! " -Michael G. WiIlis

Thank you, Judi!” -Lidia Finocchiaro

Judi's photography is unique because of the thoughtfulness and care she puts in to make each photo her best. There are many experienced photographers, but Judi is one of very few who puts forth the extra effort to choose the setting and the light and the right moment to make sure each photograph captures the perfect aura. Her candids are spectacular too!” -Lynne Romano

"Judi is a great photographer. Extremely patient and professional. Her turnaround times on photos are faster than you could ever imagine.

“Judi Bumstead was recommended to us as a photographer for our wedding and we could not have been happier with the results. When spending endless hours planning the big day, you want the piece of mind to know that it will be completely captured, and ours was. Judi came over a few days prior to the event to check the sun and lighting at specific times of the day when we would be photographing at the house. She also came to the rehearsal the night before to be sure she was prepared and knew the set-up and lighting, etc. She captured it all! We are now able to relive our big day because of her hard work and dedication. She is well known throughout the Thousand Oaks area, working on such projects as the 805 Living magazine, and much more. We were so happy with her work that my sister hired her to shoot photos of my nephews. She's professional and personal while upholding the highest of standards. I know other brides, and mothers, would be more than happy with her work just like we were.” - Sarah Weber

"Judi's work as a photographer is second to none. She has an eye for detail whether it be a pose or portrait; or a great candid or spontanious shot. She works weil with her client and insures that the finished product will be what the client asked for. I would use her again without giving it a second thought. She is an excellent photographer regardless of venue; weddings, social or community events. I'm happy to endorse her.” -Tony Korounis
