Absolutely fantastic photographer!! We hired Cat for our wedding and the results were far beyond our expectations. There isn't a single bad photo in our wedding album!! Cat is extremely kind, professional, and responded very quickly throughout the whole process. Cat even made me (an extreme introvert) feel comfortable during our newly wed photos. Highly recommend!! Thank you so much for documenting our special day!!

We are beyond thrilled with our wedding photography experience with Cat Lawrence! From the very start, Cat felt more like a member of the family than just our photographer. She embraced 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!

We had the best experience with Cat for our engagement pictures! She took the time to listen to our vision and offer any creative ideas she had. She made the environment of the shoot so relaxed and comforting! It made all of the difference! She was quick to get our proofs back. It was really hard to pick our favorites because we genuinely loved each one of them! We now have pictures that we will cherish forever! đź’—
