  Amazing Photographer!

  Cat is so incredibly talented I absolutely loved working with her. She did an amazing job shooting my wedding and engagement session - all of the photos look phenomenal!! My venue is trickier to shoot too because I got married at Ventanas which is an indoor rooftop venue with a lot of lights coming from the city but she did an incredible job. She is also so friendly and great to work with. You don’t have to have planned poses in mind, Cat is super experienced and will help you out!

  Cathi and her team were absolutely amazing. She truly captured our vision and we couldn't be happier. We will cherish these photos forever! If you have the opportunity to work with her, do not hesitate for a second.

  Cathi is amazing! I found Cathi through my wedding planner. I fell in love with her photography style as I navigated her website and instagram and was sold once we met up with her. She is so friendly and her eye for photography...truly a gift! We are so happy with our engagement and wedding photos. We knew she was the right photographer for us during our engagement shoot. She would literally lay down on the grass or side walk to get the perfect shot! My husband and I would worry she would hurt herself, but like a ninja, she didn't care about being comfortable as long as she got the perfect shot!
  
  On our wedding day, she had an additional photographer and assistant and they moved with such precision and practice. She knew what shots she wanted to take and moved so discreetly. I couldn't be happier with her services and I would highly recommend her to anyone! I purposely invested in the photography for our wedding and I am so happy that I did. The pictures far exceeded my expectations and I could not be more than happier with her services. Trust me, you want to go with Milanes Photography for your wedding. You won't regret it!

  Cathi is an amazing talent. We found her through our wedding planner and we couldn't be happier. We first met Cathi in September 2012 when she took our engagement photos. We were very nervous about being in front of the camera, but she was patient and made us feel comfortable. She gave us great direction while still keeping our vision in mind.
  
  We had a last minute change of plans on the location for our engagement photos because there was a huge event taking place at the park we initial chose, but Cathi quickly found us a backup and even recommended a second location which turned out to be the best photos we could ask for. We absolutely loved our images. They were beautifully edited and presented. We took the pictures in September and had all 1000+ shots fully edited and delivered on a beautifully packaged disc by November. We were even featured on Style Me Pretty!
  
  On our wedding day, Cathi arrived on time and prepared with a team of 2 additional shooters. They came in and got to work on the scenery shots, dress and accessories shots, and scoped out a place for our first look. During group shots, she was so patient with our playful groomsmen, she never got frustrated. She even took pictures on people's cell phones when asked. My guests also commented on how "ninja like" she and her team were. They moved around guests so seamlessly.
  
  We can't wait to see our wedding photos, we know they'll be great!

  Cathi was awesome and one of the most reasonable (price) photographers. We were so happy that we chose her to capture the moments of our special day. Her shots are amazing!

  Cathi and her team were so professional. I had requested more of a photo-journalistic style and they were so good at getting the shots needed while blending in so naturally that we barely noticed them. We also shopped around for photographers and she was very reasonably priced for great photography style. I am also a photographer so I was very particular about the who we chose as a photographer and we weren't disappointed with Cathi. I would recommend her to anyone!

  If you're considering hiring Cathi to shoot your wedding, let me make it simple. JUST DO IT. You will not regret it.
  Before the wedding, her communication is great, it never took more than a day for her to respond to me. Day of the wedding, she was on time, professional, quick but thorough. I loved how she showed me some shots on her camera throughout the day, and said "see, this is what I'm trying to do for this shot..." After the wedding, my photos took a bit longer than usual, but Cathi kept me updated and offered some free prints to make up for it. In the end, she really didn't even have to do that, because it was sooooooo worth the wait! I loved every picture, all one thousand of them. She has GREAT perspective on how things should be shot, and her pictures are interesting and edgy, without being off putting or weird. The colors were BRILLIANT, she does incredible post production work. (ie, cold weather had turned some of the grass brown at the wedding site, and Cathi made it green again!) Take a look at her blog to get an idea... while I know all photogs put their best work on their websites, trust me, EVERY pictures she takes is exceptional.
  As for the price, I shopped around and found a couple places where I could've saved a hundred or so dollars, but the picture quailty was incomparable. I'd seriously advise against "bargain" photography. It's your wedding day, you DO NOT want to get your pictures back and wish you'd hired someone better. And they don't get much better than Cathi.

  Cathi Milanes (Milanes Photography) was amazing. She caters to your style by asking you what you want, but because she's a professional also surprises you with some great shots you never imagined. I had a ridiculously complex outdoor wedding with a mix of over 150 international guests from literally all over the world and she accommodated each taste. My ceremony needed to capture the combination of my two cultures (Asian and Latino with my now husband's cultures, African) and Cathi's photography has forever captured that perfectly. Everyone is still raving about her beautiful pictures and how professional they look and the unique eye she has for capturing things that 200 other guest's cameras did not manage to see or catch. We are having another ceremony in my husband's home country and we cannot think of anyone else to hire!

  I saw Cathi's website and knew I had to have her!! She was just what I had been looking for! We only communicated through emails and I never even met her until my wedding day! My pictures are sooo beautiful I can't even believe it's me! I have been getting compliments on them for 2 years from people I don't even know who have seen them on Facebook! Two of my friends also used Cathi after me. Cathi was professional, on time, and did beautiful work without getting in the way. I also got my pictures and album very quickly! Cathi makes the album photo selection process easy, too!. I completely recommend her in every aspect!!

  Words cannot express how truly grateful I am to Cathi, for shooting beyond, amazing photos. Her creativity, originality and attention to detail, is what made my wedding an unforgettable event. I highly recommend Cathi for her talent and passion to do everything she can do to capture that “perfect image". My husband and I were very fortunate to have had Cathi part of our wedding.
  Again, thank you so much for everything you did! We love you!!

  Cathi Milanes was amazing. To this day, we get so many compliments about our wedding photographs. They are not your typical wedding photos, which is the best part. They are genuine, creative and beautiful. We have never regretted using her as our photographer as she has an eye for capturing such awesome shots. Every bride should be so lucky as to have her for their phtographer.
  
  Cat is very easy to get along with and focuses on you during your big day. There is no pressure to get the shot done a certain way. She just goes with the flow and captures such phenomenal shots. You get to be you on your big day and have that shine through in the pictures. No boring posed studio shots here.
  
  Cat was on time, arriving early enough to get shots of me getting my makeup done and getting dressed. And she stayed for the entire wedding. (Some photographers like to skip out early thinking they got enough photos...) We got to see our pictures in a reasonable amount of time after the wedding and she was very helpful when we had to narrow down our choices for our coffee table book.
  
  On that note, if you have the opportunity to purchase a coffee table book from her, DO IT! It is a work of art. There is no better way to display your special day than in that piece.
  
  Take a look at her wedding photos. If they do not floor you, nothing I can say will change your mind. But I really believe that once you take a look at her work, you'll be more than ready to book her for your wedding. Trust me. You will never regret it.

  Fantastic job! We can not speak highly enough about Cathi! She was highly professional on the day of our wedding. We loved her and our guest loved her. So happy to have found her and use her services. We found her on our own despite our wedding planner tried to have us meet with several other local photographers, she had the best photography and pricing.

  Cathi is absolutely wonderful and extremely talented! I knew I wanted her to photograph our wedding as soon as I saw her website and my husband totally agreed. She and I discussed a very specific timeline for pictures a week or so before the wedding and she was very accommodating and flexible. She and her assistant were very professional and took all our pictures in a timely manner. We recently received our wedding album and it exceeded our expectations! It's so beautiful and one of the best we've ever seen (and I'm pretty particular about things)! If you're looking for someone that will capture your special day with an artistic/photojournalistic flair then Milanes Photography is hands down the way to go! We highly recommend her!

  I haven't seen my pictures yet but just from working with her through my entire wedding date I'm confident that they will just be amazing! She's easy to work with, respectful, fun to work with and definitely is a true professional! Her assistant was also excellant with the lighting assitance. I definitely would recommend them! If you look through her website, you will see how sharp and beautiful her work is! :)
