One of my best friends had hired her for both her Tea Ceremony in San Diego and Wedding in Hawaii. She is very accommodating, and she travels!

We recently received all the photos and I must say, they are absolutely stunning to perfection! Just scrolling through all the photos definitely gets me feeling some type of way and on an emotional roller coaster of happiness and tears for my dear friend!

All the photos are bright, vivid, colorful, and beautifully edited. There are TONS of magnificent shots, all high quality. You definitely get what you pay for!

Not to mention, all the photos are uploaded to a professional website and provided link, that can be easily accessed for both clients and guests. And super easy to love, download, and share!

Would highly recommend this photographer!

Charissa and Pat are THE photography Dream Team! (While other photographers may have turned us away, they literally helped make our dream wedding vision come true.) Charissa has such incredible skill for creating a beautifully romantic and polished ambience in her photos. She has a rare gift of being able to mix both a whimsical and professional atmosphere, while making everything look elegantly natural. I could gush on about the incredible talent Charissa and Pat possess and the impeccable quality they infuse into their work. However, one can easily see every gorgeous photo they produce is a testament to that. So instead, I want to tell you what they bring to the table that other photographers can’t. From start to finish Charissa and Pat are a beacon of energetic yet soothing calm, during the potentially hectic process of wedding planning. That’s just who they naturally are— they are so genuinely sweet, kind, and helpful, and put everybody at ease. They make you feel instantly comfortable and are dedicated to ensuring their clients have fun and are well taken care of. Charissa and Pat go above and beyond for their clients because they genuinely care and take pride in their craft. They work extremely well with other vendors (because no one should have to deal with vendor drama) and when you see them side by side with more junior vendors, it’s obvious how extremely seasoned and knowledgeable they are. They are consummate professionals. Charissa and Pat have a remarkably high sense of emotional intelligence and can flex to any situation when necessary. They know exactly how to get the mission done all the while keeping their clients relaxed, engaged, and happy. Charissa is so extremely organized and her attention to detail is unparalleled (she’s an absolute dream come true for us slightly type-A brides haha!) A few anecdotal examples of how Charissa & Pat are the cream of the crop: The week of the wedding Charissa checked up on us just to see how we were doing. She's a great communicator and just radiates warmth. We had an intimate micro-wedding of only family and Charissa and Pat just felt like an extension of our family. We LOVE them!! At one point post-ceremony, we were behind schedule. However, due to their exemplary organization and skill, we made up all of the time during photos and Charissa and Pat single-handedly put us back on schedule. They also worked extremely well with our young rambunctious nephews who can’t stand still (yet they managed to capture the cutest photos of the kiddos.) Hiring Charissa and Pat was one of the best decisions we made! Investing in their services was a direct investment in our wedding day’s success. Undoubtedly, Charissa and Pat are worth it and are hands down the next-level, photography team you want supporting you through your wedding journey.

Charissa and her husband are EXTREMELY talented!!! I've never seen more beautiful wedding photos in my life. They far, far exceeded my expectations and was blown away. Not only will you get very high quality photos, they are the kindest people you will meet. Charissa directed photos flawlessly and always has a positive attitude even though my long list of family pictures made some people tired. As someone that gets overwhelmed by taking photos, she made me feel comfortable, beautiful, and just joyful and the pictures show that. I really can't say enough great things about these beautiful people. We fully intend to keep in touch and hopefully get photos in the future of our growing family. Thank you Charissa and Pat! For anyone researching wedding photographers, I'd book them ASAP!!
