Testimony from the bride:

I have known Karla for many years and the moment I started planning my wedding I knew I wanted her to be our wedding photographer. Luckily, she was available and the rest is history. Karla's skill as a photographer is extraordinary (just look at all of her photos - I'm obsessed). I planned the wedding mostly from NYC where I live - which was a difficult process - but Karla made it so easy and was always a source of happiness and excitement instead of stress. 

On our wedding day, Karla and her team took beautiful photos of us getting ready. Although I was initially against these types of photos, Karla encouraged me to document this memory and I'm so glad I did. They are some of my favorite photos which captured the special moments I shared with my Mom. Karla's instincts as a photographer - and to know what is appropriate for each couple - are spot on. Our wedding ceremony and reception photos are also gorgeous. I couldn't be happier with them. 

Thank you Karla for our beautiful photos and for making our day extra special. Your aesthetic as a photographer is impeccable and your genuine and joyful personality makes the experience even better.
