Celeste is the best!!!

We hired Celeste (and her second shooter) for our wedding and are incredibly happy with our decision. From the engagement shoot to our wedding day Celeste has been such a professional and a pleasure to be around. We do not love attention so we greatly appreciate how easy she is to work with, and how natural everything felt during our photo shoots. At our engagement shoot, she made us feel so incredibly comfortable (coming from two people who are admittedly very camera shy and not big on PDA), and we ended up with the most gorgeous and effortlessly cool shots. Celeste brought amazing energy on our wedding day, and helped bring out the best of us in pictures. Celeste was thorough in preparing the wedding day shot list ahead of time, and got all of the portraits we wanted. We experienced some bad weather at the beginning of the day, and Celeste took all of the stress away by finding the most stunning indoor & covered spots for first look and portraits, and arranging for outdoor pictures when the weather cleared up. Best of all, she was able to turn around a preview / sample of the wedding photos within a day (!!!), so we were able to show her beautiful work to everyone who asked to see pictures during the weeks following our wedding. We are so incredibly happy with outcome of the photos and we couldn’t say enough great things about Celeste’s artistry and the experience of working with her. 11/10 would recommend Celeste for both her professionalism and quality of work. We will absolutely be hiring Celeste in the future if we ever need professional photographs!

Celeste is the best!

Celeste was a dream to work with! From our engagement shoot to our wedding, she showed professionalism, flexibility, and put us at ease every step of the way. When it down poured at our engagement shoot, she waited for the rain to stop and made sure we still got the best shots. At our wedding, she captured every moment and made us and our families feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos are beautiful and we could not recommend Celeste enough!

Hire Celeste!

Celeste was an absolute dream to work with as our wedding photographer! My spouse and I knew going in that we would need a photographer who was comfortable taking charge. We are not super photogenic and lacked a vision for our wedding photos. Our families can also be a bit difficult to wrangle. However, Celeste navigated it all flawlessly. Nothing–including torrential rain and one of our fathers going missing for a surprise outfit change–phased Celeste.

Celeste is also a lovely person. We met Celeste the year before our wedding at the wedding of two of our good friends, so we knew going in that she would be a fun and calming presence. She lived up to her reputation; easygoing, kind, and quick to respond to emails, she made the entire experience stress-free.

Two days after the wedding we received a “sneak peek” file from Celeste of over 100 shots. We were floored by how well they came out and how quickly she was able to get them to us. About 8 weeks later we received the full album and we could not have been happier. Celeste’s photos captured the vibe we did not even know we wanted–bright, fun, light-hearted and silly.

We wholeheartedly recommend Celeste for her talent and skill, adaptability, and the overall joy she brought to our wedding day.
