Such a great experience.

Vanessa was so sweet and great with keeping photos moving! We absolutely adore our pictures. Her editing style is stunning as well. The candids really stole the show too!

Vanessa is the best!!

One of the most important things I wanted on my wedding day was to have a photographer who would capture all the special moments and highlights of my and my husband's special day, and I found that with Vanessa. I can not say enough how amazing working with Vanessa was. From the very beginning she responded back to me quickly, answered all the questions I had, and was willing to work with my budget. She laid out the timeline for how the day would go in terms of the photography, and that helped make the day go even smoother. When we got our wedding photos, my husband and I as well as our family and friends, were all blown away with how beautiful they came out. It is difficult for me to put into words just how much I am in love with my wedding photos. Vanessa and her second photographer, Ricky, captured our big day so perfectly and I feel so fortunate that I am able to pair my gorgeous wedding photos with the memories from one of the best days of my life. If you decide to go with Vanessa, you will be in the most capable of hands and will receive the most amazing photos no matter what your occasion is!!

Beautiful photos and a pleasure to work with!

Vanessa is friendly and goes the extra mile to make sure you get what you want. My husband hates taking pictures and her and her partner were great at keeping him going and so nice for putting up with it! Not to mention that my photos are absolutely stunning. They captured each moment and the venue so beautifully. Hire them!
