DeAnda Photography

last year and I could not be happier with how they turned out. She is such a pleasure to work with. Can’t say enough positive things about her and her work!!

he is able to capture the special moments and has a great eye for pictures. On the wedding day, her second shooter, Lauren, was also great. Both of them did a great job wrangling our families for group shots, keeping the bridal party shots quick and easy, and capturing special moments of just the two of us that didn't interfere with us enjoying our wedding. We loved working with Carol, and we can't wait to work with her for future family photoshoots!

wedding photographer. Period. She is a consummate professional and made me and my wife’s day perfect. Pre-event, she was courteous, straightforward, understanding, and timely with her information and replies. She made suggestions based on her experiences when new information kept changing our timeline. She was responsible and on top of absolutely everything. Not once did she get frustrated with us, but handheld us every step of the way while we were trying to figure out schedules and shooting locations. Day-of she was at the church waiting for us when we arrived. She was already at work, getting pre ceremony photos. While I’m panicking because flowers aren’t getting handed out and a family member isn’t there, suddenly Carol’s assistant just picks up a box of flowers next to me and said “What do you need? We are here for you.” Right after the ceremony ended, I told Carol “You’re the professional. I trust you. The rest of the night, just do what you need to do.” And she did. She’s wrangling family members, she’s lining up shots, she’s rolling through portrait combos. Every tiny detail, nothing slipping through the cracks. We get outside, more of the same. She’s scouting out areas we can hide from the super heavy wind, she’s getting us in line, she’s quick on her feet. And, as a paying customer, she didn’t deviate from one single thing we had talked about before the wedding without asking my permission first, which is such a testament to her professionalism. At the reception, she took real time initiative to coordinate with my hall rep and DJ since we had gotten delayed to make sure no one was in anyone’s way or messing up anyone else’s plans. They were working things out between them so I could catch my breath. The rest of the night was the same. Consummate professionalism. Then, on top of ALL of that, it’s less than ONEDAY before she tells my wife and I she’s got a preview picture ready for us, and we look at it and the whole experience wrapped itself up in a perfect little bow, from the contract signing all the way to now. I’ll end this by being blunt one more time: You want Carol to photograph your wedding and I promise you she is worth every penny and more.

and being around her which turned out phenomenal photos. Carol was recommended by multiple friends and they guaranteed we would be happy with the outcome- we are so grateful we met with her and booked her for our wedding. She helped us organize our day to ensure all the moments were captured in a way that allowed us to enjoy the company of our wedding party, cocktail hour, and reception- yet still photograph important family formals, table pictures, candid moments etc. She collaborated with our other vendors and made sure everyone was on the same page and brought a sense of tranquility to what could be a hectic day. You can fully put your trust in her on your engagement session, wedding day, and any other moment you want memorialized. She was able to actively and calmly work alongside our 2 year old flower girl and large families with big personalities. She was communicative throughout the entire process and her second shooter was just as amazing. We started this journey looking for a photographer and ended with a wonderful friend and beautiful photos! We highly recommend DeAnda Photography for all of your photography needs!
