We loved carrie

Carrie is absolutely the best. My (now) husband is an amateur photographer and is very picky about lighting. He always only wants natural light and no filters. I wanted a photographer that could effortlessly capture the joy of the day - not just us but our guests and the candid moments of fun. Carrie delivered and more. From the moment we signed with her, her attention to detail and personalization wowed us. Even before we met in person. Her tips and tricks for planning for engagement and wedding day photos were SO helpful! When we took our engagement photos we felt comfortable with her right away, and she helped us ease into having a million pictures taken of us :). We had so much fun! And the wedding, of course, was even better. She and her assistant captured exactly what we wanted, and were so fun to work with. My husband and I both were brought to happy tears seeing our wonderful day captured so beautifully. Hire her. You will not regret it.

Outstanding

Carrie was absolutely wonderful to work with, I highly recommend her. She made us feel comfortable and was easy going. She sent us a welcome gift and a beautiful gift after the wedding. Our wedding day was rainy and gloomy and she made the pictures look outstanding. We were so happy and plan to go to her for any future photography needs!

Thrilled with the whole experience!

Carrie at Geno Photography was an absolute delight to work with, from start to finish! Prior to meeting Carrie, she was quick to respond to our emails and flexible on finding a day that worked for all of us for an engagement session. Even when inclement weather threatened our ability to take outdoor photos on the day we'd selected, Carrie was willing to problem-solve with us and find alternative locations that ended up working out absolutely beautifully. She naturally put us at ease during the session, which came through in the gorgeous photos she captured and shared with us when all was said and done. Working with Carrie has been such a positive experience. We wish we could justify having another engagement photo session because of her wonderful presence and high-quality end product! Thank you Carrie!

Amazing!!!

Carrie was wonderful to work with! We absolutely love our engagement and wedding photos and received them in no time at all. Communication throughout the process was very easy. We chose a photo + video package and the photography/videography team worked together seamlessly. They captured everything so beautifully and we couldn't be happier with the collection we have to look back on our day.

Great Wedding Photographer!

We loved working with Carrie! She was professional, did lots of personal touches, and worked to stay within our budget. We love the way our photos turned out, got them quickly, and even got the rights to them! She is currently making our wedding album and we are so excited to have such an amazing piece for our home to look at. We are obsessed with her work and professionalism--she did everything to make sure we were comfortable and got the shots we wanted! Thanks Carrie!
