Patty Carratala Photography

Our experience with Patty Carratala Fine Art Photography was PHENOMENAL! The night Patty sent over our photos, we honestly never enjoyed looking at pictures so much in our entire lives ! We are beyond happy that we are having a hard time even putting it into words to express the emotion of excitement. Patty we cannot thank you enough from the bottom of our hearts you truly outdid yourself in every aspect from beginning to end. From the moment that I found you on Instagram to seeing those pictures we 100% knew that we made the right decision in picking you to be our photographer. Thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us, help us, guide us all the way up until the day of the engagement shoot. We truly never felt more ready to take photos, knowing that we were going to be taken care during our photoshoot. Thank you for going the extra mile of providing snacks and water to make sure we were taken of throughout our time together. Thank you for bringing your amazing husband to help with every detail make the day even more special than just showing up with cameras and saying ok let’s do this. Thank you for listening to us, for guiding us in our photos, for being so open minded and thank you for sharing your talent with us. When we left you guys in Miami to go back home to St. Cloud, we were so thrilled to know that we left our photos in great hands and all we could think about is we can’t wait to see our photos! Thank you for taking the time to send us a preview collage, my heart skipped a beat seeing the amazing quality work that you provided for us. We are such a picky people when it comes to photos and you have left us speechless because we honestly can’t express how happy we are with our photos. You, Patty truly have a God given gift for taking and editing pictures and it shows through your work. Thank you for you countless hours you spent making sure every picture was perfect and sensational! Seriously we can’t thank you enough from the bottom our hearts for your time and patience and love that you put into every single photo you, honestly chose to do every photo with the same amount of work and love and it shows! We had the hardest time deciding which ones were our favorite because there were so many and we just are greatly appreciative! Thank you for giving us the best gift of having so many engagement photos to pick from that we honestly are obsessed with every time we look at them. I cannot wait to share your work with the world and rave about you! I am going to become one of those snobby brides that literally just want to push my photos in to every person’s face because I love them that much (If people know me, you know I am the complete opposite of that LOL). I will be writing reviews on every media area to show how amazing you are and why people literally should pick you as their photographer. Michael and I in the end are so blessed because we just didn’t gain an amazing photographer or amazing engagement photos but honestly we gained an amazing friend that we just love and adore and we are so blessed to have you in our lives! We can’t wait to use you again! Thank you Patty from the bottom of our hearts for everything! Thank you, Chelsea & Michael.

Ok, so where do I start?!?! After my fiancé and I took months to decide on a wedding venue (I did most of the research,) I was completely overwhelmed by then having to pick a caterer, DJ, and most importantly, a photographer. I had heard about this photographer named Patty through a friend of a friend. I personally hate using people that friends recommend because sometimes it can affect a friendship if things don’t turn out as planned. However, I could not have been more wrong with Patty Carratala Photography! From the start, she was everything I could’ve imagined and then some! First off, she showed up early and prepared! (My bartender and DJ did not but that is another story for another day.) This lady literally showed up with two types of cameras! (One was digital and the other was film.) As soon as she stepped foot onto the venue, she was shooting left and right, crouched down, getting the best angles possible, this girl literally was a boss! What I specifically liked was that she like a ninja in the night. She was always around but never in the way. She made sure I enjoyed my moment and that she captured everything but that she was not part of it, she was simply documenting it. And then there were the photos. I could not have been more proud of her work! It’s one thing to see her in action, it’s a whole other thing when you see the fruits of her labor. This girl truly has a gift! Her turnaround time was reasonable, her prices are competitive, and overall she is just a beautiful soul! I highly recommend Patty Carratala Photography!

Patty is AMAZING! She is so patient and kind. She truly cares about her clients and is passionate about her work. She was prompt to each of our events, provided the necessary guidance we needed for our wedding photo shoot, and always speaking words positivity and encouragement. Patty captured our wedding day/weekend with true perfection. We are blessed to have met Patty through 24West Events and we are forever grateful for her time and diligence. We would highly recommend Patty to everyone that wants to capture memories of a special moment/ occasion through powerful and beautiful images.

I absolutely LOVED Patty Carratala Photography!!! I had an amazing Wedding experience and I would of not been able to do this on my own. Patty went above and beyond for me and my husband. We are both so grateful for the love, kindness, and service she provided for us. Patty was intentional about building trust and having a relationship with us. She truly does care for people and is amazing with details and knew exactly what I wanted. I am so thankful Patty was not just my photographer but my biggest support on my best day ever. I highly recommend her to any bride!
