My husband and I are so happy that we chose her to capture this season of our life. From our engagement photos, to my bridal portraits, to our wedding - her pictures are something we will forever cherish. What sets Monica apart from others is her fun, positive, and calming personality. She has an ability to make anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. You can definitely tell that photography is her passion, not just her job. She truly goes above and beyond, and she cares about her couples.
and I’m so happy we had the pleasure of her working her artistic magic on our special day. I seriously couldn’t imagine how our special day would’ve gone if we had chosen anyone other than Monica to be our photographer.
From the moment my husband and I met Monica we instantly fell I love with her vision, work and personality. I was always told to find a photographer you’re comfortable with because when your comfortable you can be your true self. For our engagement pictures it was a gloomy, foggy morning however by looking at our pictures you wouldn’t even know there was fog. They were spectacular!! My bridal pics has gusts of what it felt like 20 mph winds and my photos were stunning!!!
I don’t even know where to begin with how wonderful Monica is! Her photos are absolutely stunning and very artistic and creative and high-quality. She shot my engagement, bridals, and wedding photos and we received so many compliments on ALL the pictures. I have so many printed all around my home! She’s so easy to work with and so friendly and makes you feel absolutely comfortable even in the most uncomfortable poses lol. I highly recommend hiring Monica for your big day. I can’t wait to work with her again for other big life events
