Cate is literally the best photographer! We are so happy with our choice of picking her for our wedding and engagement shoot. She made us feel so comfortable especially taking the time to get to know us on a more personal level prior to choosing her, sitting down for coffee and looking through photo albums and taking about our vision. The photo galleries were ready on time and even gave us a 40 picture sneak peak 1 week after the wedding! She had a very natural day of "directing" us and love the "natural candid" vibe of all of our wedding pictures.

10/10 would recommend!
I can’t say enough great things about Cate and her work! We absolutely loved working with Cate and the photos she took! Not only does Cate take phenomenal pictures, she also has so much knowledge about weddings and photography. Before our engagement shoot, Cate sent us an email with a ton of information to prepare for our shoot including advice on coordinating outfits without exactly matching, picking flattering outfits for your body type, and picking the perfect location for our photos. Leading up to the wedding, Cate would send us thoughtful gifts like a gift card for a date night and (my favorite) wedding vow books. She really took the time to get to know us before the wedding which made working with her so enjoyable! Cate brings such a great energy to the shoots that you can’t not love her, and we even loved the second photographer she chose! Cate is a must have for your wedding!!

I wish I could put her work into words
Cate's work speaks for itself. The soft, angelic, and mesmerizing. Not only is she extremely friendly, but extremely flexible with everything. Dates for engagement shoots (which is included in packages) and locations, as well as with contract flexibility so that you as the bride/groom are comfortable. We have fallen in love with her work so much that we have talked about even having maternity. family, and any other events shot by her ONLY. Cate deliveries and sets herself up from beginning to end that it makes its easy for you to trust her with your ideas, vision, and most importantly your wedding day.

Above & beyond!!
BOOK THIS GIRL! We wish we could give Cate 10 stars - she is seriously a ROCKSTAR talent! She seamlessly captures everyone's personality, and let us just live in our day. We loved watching her get excited about awesome shots, and truly enjoying what she does. In addition to an incredible photographer, she's also a BLAST to have around + has all the positive energy, is an organizational master, and source of peace in the midst of a crazy day. We never felt rushed, awkward, or uncomfortable, and knew we could count on Cate for perfect photos and support throughout our wedding planning + special day.

How do you start these reviews without sounding super cheesy? Well here goes, incredible! Cate is super easy going, fun, smiley and vibrant. She truly makes you feel how happy she is for you and it almost makes you have tears. She was so involved and suggestive with us and our guests we received lots of compliments about her. Recommend her? Well of course! She is simply awesome!

Cate is seriously the best!! My husband and I knew pretty much immediately during our first meeting that Cate was going to be our photographer. She was always quick to respond to our questions and concerns and she made us feel so comfortable. She was very accommodating to what we wanted and the pictures turned out simply amazing!!
