I can't even begin to explain how incredible Carter is with her photography! She captured the best moments of Matt and I on our wedding day! She's great with communication and gets back to you very quickly! Very fun to work with as she is super bubbly and full of life you can definitely tell that she loves her job! If you're looking for a great photographer look no further because Carter is the best! It was hard to choose which photos to even post here because they were all so amazing!

We had such a wonderful time with Carter for our engagement shoot. She is such an artist and delivered such beautiful and dreamy photos just as I was hoping for! She made the shoot a stress free and fun experience and I would definitely book with her again the next time I need photos!

We had such a wonderful time with Carter for our engagement shoot.

My fiancé and I choose Carter for our engagement shoot and she made the entire process easy going for a couple who doesn't love to be behind the camera. My fiancé at first felt uncomfortable because he HATES pictures but we let Carter work her magic and do her job and by the end of the photo shoot we were a lot less stressed and having a blast! Carter also offers a very enticing price range and her pictures are always amazingly edited! I loved working with her!

Carter is so easygoing!!
