Great experience with Cathie!! My 5 year old was very difficult to say the least and Cathie was still able to capture great family pics despite the situation! Will definitely use again!

Cathie was absolutely wonderful for our family photo session on the beach. She was super responsive, easy to plan with, and super flexible. She was able to photograph all nine family members (including a four year old) beautifully! Our pictures came out amazing. Our session was organized and went smoothly. Cathie was easy to work with and has incredible skill as a photographer. I would absolutely book her again in the future! Her turn around time on photo editing was really quick!

We highly enjoyed our experience with Cathie while vacationing on the Cape. Everything was as planned & Cathie was a pleasure to work with, giving us a lot of options both posed & natural. Thank you, Cathie, for added a memorable touch to my 40th birthday week away with my family.
