to answer questions, easy to reach, and professional.
The photos turned out beautifully and captured our day perfectly. She caught so many special moments that we'll treasure forever. We also received our gallery much faster than expected, which was a nice surprise. There were so many amazing photos it was difficult to choose our favorites!
We highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and personable wedding photographer.

er package included an engagement photo shoot in which she met us at our chosen location, took her time with us, and helped us feel so comfortable! She even made us an engagement photo book. Fast forward to the wedding- Vanessa and her partner/second photographer absolutely killed it! We were more than happy with her creativity, presence, and attention to detail in her work. She made sure we got every photo style/angle we wanted and we are obsessed with how the photos came out! Not to mention, the wedding album she made us was beautiful and something we will cherish forever, as well as a wall canvas that also turned out beautiful. Highly recommend using her for the quality, reasonable pricing, great communication, and overall wonderful experience!!

We are so incredibly grateful to have had Vanessa capture our wedding. We had a small beach wedding, focused on close friends and family, and she really captured the emotion in our...
celebration.
From the moment she arrived, she felt like part of the family/ Vanessa is warm, kind, and so easy to be around. Her presence was comforting, and her professionalism and talent were evident every step of the way. I think she even helped ease my parent's nerves!
She captured the most beautiful, heartfelt moments of our day—photos that we’ll treasure forever. In fact, we loved them so much that we used one as our thank you cards and included other photos in the card. The wedding book she created for us is absolutely stunning! It is great quality and she walks you through every step of the process.
On top of all that, her pricing makes her an affordable luxury. The value she provides is truly unmatched, and we feel so lucky to have found her. We already plan on working with her again for future photography needs. Can’t recommend her enough!

Your beach wedding was so special, and I truly felt honored to be there capturing such an intimate and love-filled celebration. It means the world to me that I could help everyone (especially your parents!) feel more at ease, and that you saw me as part of the family. That’s exactly the kind of connection I hope to build with every couple. 🤍
I’m so thrilled you loved the photos and the wedding book, knowing you used them in your thank-you cards honestly made my day! I can't wait to work with you again in the future. Thank you for trusting me with such precious memories!
With so much gratitude,

Vanessa was absolutely amazing and we totally enjoyed working with her. She has a great personality, very sparkly and very bubbly, and she made us feel totally at ease. This was a ...
second wedding for us and we debated about whether even having a photographer but in the end, we are so glad we did and that we chose her. We interviewed about three photographers, and we really enjoyed our conversation with her. She was all about making sure she captured all the moments that we asked for including family and some outside areas. She even made the trek up to Castle Craig in the snow. Our guests commented how professional she was and about the fun moments she captured that we probably wouldn’t have seen otherwise. A big plus was that she had worked with our DJ before and between the two of them they really helped us keep things going and on time. We couldn’t have asked for more and a photographer and I would highly recommend Vanessa. She does outstanding work in her prices are reasonable.

I’m so glad you decided to go for a photographer, and even happier that it was me! Your wedding was so full of joy and love, and I loved every minute of it (yes, even the snowy trek up to Castle Craig! ❄️😉). I'm so touched to hear that you and your guests felt at ease, capturing those in-between, candid moments is one of my favorite parts of the day.
It was also such a bonus to work alongside a familiar DJ, teamwork like that always makes the day flow so smoothly! Thank you again for trusting me with your special day and for such a thoughtful recommendation.
Wishing you both so much happiness ahead!
Warmly,
Vanessa

Vanessa is fairly priced and provides great value for what you pay. My wife and I enjoyed her attention to detail, professionalism, and eye for photography.
During our photo shoot, Vanessa always guided us to best possible positioning and posture to ensure we achieve the perfect shot each time. She is very aware of lighting, surroundings, and the overall goal of what you are looking to get from your session.
On our wedding day, Vanessa and her team we exceptional! She followed my wife around every second of the day and didn't miss a single moment. We were also impressed with her patience in organizing our wedding album to ensure we were 100% happy with the results.
If anyone is looking for a photographer, we will recommend Vanessa Trettel Photography in the same manner that she was recommended to us.

make the most beautiful photos of my life. When I look at the poster she delivered, I think it's a magazine cover. She was super open to my ideas and was super creative. Vanessa has a way to make us feel comfortable, she is very humorous with her accent, she can speak up to 4 languages, my father loved speaking Italian with Vanessa. I'm sure you will love the books she makes, we made books for our parents they show to everyone who visits them.

y of your life, right? But, when we found Vanessa Trettel Photography, it was clear that she was the best of the best! From the first time we contacted her, Vanessa made every effort to make us feel welcome and in good hands. She even surprised us with our very first wedding gift to help us relax during the stressful wedding planning! During the engagement picture shoot, Vanessa made the effort to get to know our personalities and style to customize the pictures for us. We instantly felt at ease and we knew that Vanessa would make our special day the best. At the wedding, Vanessa felt more like a trusted friend than just a photographer. And, of course, Vanessa took the most amazing pictures that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. She was flexible, professional, friendly and her photographs are of the highest quality. Vanessa really has an eye for catching the subtle nuances and special moments that were shared not only between my husband and I, but also between my family and friends. During the wedding, he was tactful to shoot pictures behind the scenes, like a photographer ninja! (Lol) she even created scenes for specially for us at the end of the night, when we wanted to capture the full moon in our pictures. Strangely enough, weeks after the wedding, my friends and family weren't talking about how great the flowers, cake and food were (and they were awesome)- they were talking about how funny and talented Vanessa was! If anyone was ever considering a wedding photographer, I would most definitely recommend Vanessa for their event. Any bride would be lucky to have such a talented, professional and amazing photographer (and friend) as Vanessa Trettel. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
