Best Photographer Ever!!!
This October, I worked with Elope in Monterey to have a small wedding with my immediate family in attendance. I feel so unbelievably lucky that Catherine was my photographer! I showed up to my wedding without ever meeting Catherine, but her warmth and friendliness made me feel comfortable immediately. As someone who is pretty shy in front of the camera (same goes for my partner), I was surprised by how comfortable I felt in front of Catherine's lens. She really let us be ourselves and joyfully captured all the silliness that makes us who we are. I also really appreciated her helpful directions and tips for posing, which she always delivered kindly. Catherine really made us feel like she was so happy to be there and for me, that really made my experience so pleasant and memorable! Even though our package only included 60 minutes of photography, she never made us feel rushed and she really went the extra mile to get us a large variety of shots and made sure we had many photos in various configurations of our group! I've received our photos, and they are stunning! I cannot thank Catherine enough for capturing the joy of our special day!
Absolutely amazing - would hire again!
Catherine is the most incredible photographer anyone could ask for! She was easy to work with, fun, professional, and organized, going above and beyond throughout the entire process. Catherine captured the most amazing moments, emotions, and joy from our special day with such skill. Kyle and I aren't the most comfortable in front of the camera, but Catherine and her team made us feel completely at ease. Our photos are absolutely stunning—words can't even describe how beautiful they turned out! Catherine perfectly captured the candid shots and posed pictures full of smiles, laughter, and love. Catherine, thank you so much! Even months after our wedding we still look through our pictures daily. We will definitely recommend you to all our friends and family. For any exciting life moments ahead, you can count on us reaching out! We absolutely love everything! Thank you again—your talent is truly remarkable!

I had the pleasure of working with Catherine who is an exceptional photographer. Her discreet presence allowed the couple and their guests to enjoy the celebration without intrusion. The stunning images captured the essence of the day, showcasing genuine emotions and the love shared. Catherine's professionalism, high-quality equipment, and unique editing set her worlds apart. I highly recommend her for couples seeking a true artist to beautifully preserve the magic of their special day.
The Experience Beyond Expectations!
Catherine is extremely professional and talented and our whole experience was a breeze from start to finish. We felt completely comfortable with her and she put our minds at ease from day one. Nothing felt unnatural. We are so happy with the end results! Beautifully presented and everything we ever wanted.
