Cat is a wonderful photographer and amazing to work with!
From the start, where we explained our laissez faire and non traditional vision, Cat was totally open and supportive, ...
and answered our many questions. It may have been their website and portfolio that initially drew us to Cat, but their attitude and kindness sealed the deal!
Throughout the wedding and after, many of our guests made a point to let us know how much they really liked Cat-how professional she was, but how she also put everyone at ease with their friendly demeanor and unique perspectives.
The end result was a GORGEOUS album with many more photos than we expected, each one capturing an amazing detail of our special day. The candids of our friends and family especially were important to us, as we could see more angles and moments.
We can’t thank Cat enough for their partnership, creativity, commitment, and professionalism. She is a photographer we would recommend to anyone looking for someone to capture the intimacy of their ceremony and details of the outdoors.

Cat was so incredible to work with. She put me and my camera-shy now-husband so at ease during our engagement shoot and wedding. We had a couple silly ideas at both shoots and she ...
encouraged them (and helped us frame them better). Because of how we feel about photos of ourselves, we really expected maybe a dozen photos we would want to print and display, but instead we found ourselves narrowing down from our favorite 50+. Our wedding guests also found Cat delightful - but from the photo gallery she returned, we never would have guessed she was able to have so many conversations. 100/10 would book again!

Cat is an absolutely amazing photographer. I used her for both an engagement shoot and my wedding day and other than marrying my fabulous husband, I have to say Cat was the best pa...
rt of the day. My husband and I are not normally very comfortable in front of the cambra but Cat made it almost effortless. The energy and presence she brought to the day was a highlight on one of the most important days of our lives. I love that she was willing to go with our vision and captured the day as it happened while getting more of those posed shots that are included in every wedding. I could honestly write a million more reasons why we loved working with her and her second shooter.

raced the non-traditional and wonderfully quirky vibe of our wedding, capturing moments that truly reflected our unique celebration.
Her energy and enthusiasm added so much fun to the day, and it was evident that she genuinely cared about our vision.
If you're looking for a photographer who not only delivers amazing photos but also brings warmth and fun to the experience, we highly recommend Cat Lawrence—you rock, Cat.

Cat did us the honor of photographing our elopement. They beautifully captured every moment throughout the day and made us feel so comfortable throughout our ceremony and following...
photoshoot. Her professionalism and creativity is amazing and we are elated she was there to make our day even more special. We highly recommend her to anyone who may have non-traditional wedding plans because she brought such fun energy and ideas to the shots. Additionally, as a queer couple it's hard to find wonderful photographers who you know will be accepting, and Cat is a top notch choice for any queer relationships looking for a photographer for their special day.
By the way, for some reason I can't attach pictures to this review, but if you look through the pictures on Cat's profile, our wedding is the one between two men in a gray suit and green suit in the woods. We love how they turned out!
