Finn RAUEN Photography

ced to choose any sort of photography package. On the morning of our wedding day, she texted me to check in and see how I was doing. I have a complicated family situation and Catherine knew that my husband and I were nervous about this, so she established a safe word we could use to let her know if we needed anything. Throughout the reception (and entire day), Catherine made sure my husband and I felt taken care of. Our wedding was only a week ago, so we do not have the final photos yet, but even so, we already feel confident that asking Catherine to be our photographer was the best decision we made in the entire wedding process. We were provided a few sneak peek photos and they are incredible. It was an absolute joy working with Catherine and getting to know her. At the end of the day, multiple people in our wedding party mentioned to us how great of a job they thought she did. We agree wholeheartedly and are so grateful that we had Finn Rauen to capture the small and big moments and everything inbetween on such a significant day in our lives. She truly captures the emotion and the journey.

y professional, reliable, courteous, kind, and patient with us throughout the wedding. She arrived very early and she stayed late. I strongly recommend Catherine for your photography needs. She is a wonderful photographer, and a wonderful person.

for any event. My family and friends loved her too - they said she felt like part of the family. The photos were beautiful and I loved meeting her for coffee at different points in the planning. Hopefully I'll have other life events for her to shoot!

ave someone that I felt very comfortable with. After reaching out to multiple people, I found Catherine. I was able to look through some of her pervious work and liked her style. She captures genuine moments so well, it's astonishing. I remember, after the first time we met, I instantly knew that I wanted her for my wedding. She is easy to communicate with and always responds to emails and texts quickly. She is professional, punctual, patient, and very creative. We decided to do some engagement photos with Catherine as well. That went great. She was able to suggest this beautiful place for us to take our photos. They came out incredible. For the wedding, Catherine worked with a second photographer named Kelsey. They work so amazingly together. I just recently saw my wedding photos for the first time and they are so beautiful! I cannot thank Catherine and Kelsey enough for how great they turned out. Everyone that has seen them has been so impressed with the quality and professionalism of the photos. Hands down, I would recommend Catherine to anyone who wants photos taken. She is so versatile, passionate, and talented that I know she is going to make it very far in her career.

wedding day. She was also there for me through the planning process. She was so real with us, she listened to what we wanted, and she made sure that we felt cared for. Catherine is one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We will definitely be working with her in the future as our family grows

e traveled to LBI for our engagement photo shoot and took her time. We were not rushed and it was an amazing day. We just got our photos back, in the most beautiful cork bottle flash drive, and we couldn't be happier with our pictures. We are positive our wedding day will be forever captured and we are so thrilled to have Catherine by our side.

r daughter feel comfortable and cared about, which is so important! I would highly recommend Catherine.

impressive! If you are looking for a photographer that can do the whole, complete package, she's the one!

ptured every moment of their special day with grace and charm. It is obvious that Catherine loves what she does! Her artistic abilities shine through her impressive and expressive photography. Of course our families, wedding party and friends were photographed and the photos that she took will keep our children's wedding day a vivid memory for years to come. When my other children get married, and when we have any important occasion for which we need a photographer, there is no doubt that Catherine will be the one and only photographer that we will use. I highly recommend her to family and friends and to every person that wants to treasure the memories of their unforgettable affairs!

ways there for us. Of all the people we contacted she was the first one who took the time to listen and find out what we wanted. During our session she was present and in the moment, always knowing how to lighten the mood to get the another great shot. Afterwards Catherine was so easy to get a hold of and was in constant communication with us. When we got our photos we were so thrilled with the results, they we even better than we could have imagined! We were so happy to work with Catherine and will be recommending her to all our friends!

anely. (Everyone else sent a automated generic response) We were able to immediately get on the phone and discuss with her our views/stylistic choices about the wedding and the shoot. Catherine was with us every step of the way, encouraging and getting the best out of the both of us, while also allowing us the freedom to be ourselves. She managed to capture some of the most intimate moments while never making us feel like we were in a fishbowl. Catherine has a wonderful directness to her from the way she handles her business side and her artistic side. The process from beginning to end was fantastic and such an ease. I love that she made it feel as if the photographer and photo shoot wasn't just 'another thing on the checklist' or 'someone else to pay' she was able to ebb and flow how we needed her to. Catherine and I had such a great time working together, we've worked together after the shoot with Austin and me. The portrait photo shoot is a completely different experience, but it's incredibly rewarding and warming to work with Catherine in a one-on-one basis. However cheesy or clichéd it sounds, I think that everyone should hire Catherine Taylor for your wedding or any other photography needs!

he memories through her photographs forever. I would highly recommend her, without any hesitation!

es working with her so wonderful. She took the time to really get to know me-what I'm passionate about, music I like, things that make me happy, etc. As someone who is not always comfortable in front of a camera, she was able to use that information to have me relax and have fun. When I'd get too serious she'd say something like, "Think of your favorite thing Jake (my fiancé) does that makes you laugh," and then she would capture that fleeting moment of laughter and twinkle in my eye. If you want someone to capture those little moments, not just the posed ones, Cat is the photographer to work with.

rriage for both of us, we weren't planning a formal or traditional affair and she kept pace with every moment of the day. Catherine shot our engagement photos, helped us with Save the Dates, and she even helped us order our invitations. I've heard of couples waiting months, even a year, for their wedding proofs to come back. This was not the case with Catherine. A week after we got back from our honeymoon, Catherine had our photos ready! I was so impressed. If I had it to do all over again, I'd hire Catherine again every time.

moment was evolving.. The day was recorded with our personalities shining bright. Catherine is magical and a pleasure to work with.

n we usually do in front of a camera! Her eye for detail gave us images we could've never dreamed of! I will definitely be recommending Catherine's services to all of my friends and family.
