Callie Lauren Photography

She made my husband and I feel very comfortable, and our wedding party loved her! However every deadline that she set she would push back multiple times after the promised deadline had passed. And most of the time it was us having to reach out to see how things were going. Our engagement photos we were told 4-6 weeks it took 12, we were told 5-8 weeks for the wedding photos, they also took 12. We didn't complain or ask for any kind of compensation for the delays, but when she sent us the wedding photos she said that as a thank you for our patience she was offering us free prints and an heirloom photo album and would be following up with details soon (that was August 28th). We didn't need this but we thought the gesture and the accountability was nice. Except we haven't heard anything from her since and it is now November 25th. I even followed up on October 7th but got no response.

hoot and when the lilacs here in Rochester were finally in bloom she was unavailable. We rescheduled twice because of availability and rain so doing the engagement shoot really lost its magic especially when we lost the lilacs. Callie and the second shooter pretty much nailed it on our wedding day in July. They were on time and very pleasant to be around. I waited a solid 3 months before reaching out about our gallery availability but the response read like an excuse to a professor about a late assignment. She said we could have a small sampling by Christmas (5 months after the wedding) but I was hoping to have photo books ready before Thanksgiving to give out for Christmas and we needed the family photo to give out at my husband’s gran’s memorial. It took a lot of effort, worry, and multiple attempts to get a hold of Callie, leaving us with little time. In the meantime, her social media advertised her attendance at the next bridal expo which meant she was soliciting new business when her prior commitments really weren’t met. Callie is a lovely person but I believe there’s a need to be honest since the investment and the responsibility needed from the wedding photographer is really huge. I feel Callie fell short.

t we will cherish forever (and we cannot WAIT to see the wedding photos!!). She has a wonderful eye, great taste, and is also really good at taking awesome candids, which is something I really want in a photographer! Her photos capture beauty and personality in spades. --She really knows weddings and was unendingly helpful to us on the big day. It turns out a photographer is probably THE most important vendor you can hire, and Callie was a consummate professional the entire time and helped keep our whole day flowing smoothly --She is a lovely, warm, down-to-earth person who helped us feel relaxed and happy in front of the camera (and it really comes across in the photos)! She was so supportive and kind and enthusiastic and we seriously appreciated that!! --She went above and beyond for us, making sure we got our engagement photos so we could print some for the wedding, despite the fact that we only took them 3 weeks ahead of time in the middle of busy wedding season --We loved working with her so much that if we ever need photos in the future we are UNQUESTIONABLY hiring her again, 100%! Callie we love you, thanks for being such a huge part of our wedding story ♥️♥️♥️.

ography, but for her incredible personality as well! She was incredible to work with and went above and beyond to make our wedding day run flawlessly. Callie is absolutely amazing at what she does, and can make even the shyest of introverts feel comfortable in front of the camera. We definitely recommend Callie to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding. We love you Callie and thank you for making our day magical <3
