Catherine and Oscar photographed our wedding and we truly could not have had a better experience. They were extremely professional and clearly phenomenal at what they do as they gave us detailed poses and made us feel so comfortable. Without a doubt, my husband and I agree, the best money we spent at our wedding was on our photographers. Catherine and Oscar - thank you isn’t enough. You beautifully captured a day that will be in our memories forever. Thank you

Catherine and Oscar were so incredible to work with. They basically planned out the entire day with the timeline they created for our wedding day, which took so much stress off of us on the day. Knowing exactly where and when every photo would be taken. Their calm and professional work made myself and now wife's wedding day a breeze. From our first meeting, to our engagement session, to our wedding day Cathrine and Oscar were such a huge help and pleasure to work with. We both could not recommend them anymore! Thank you both so much!
