I have worked with Autumn 4 times now, and had the best experiences! We have done fashion shoot, family photo shoot, pregnancy shoot and newborn shoot, I love her taste, and trust her judgement. Autumn helped me and my family captured the very important moments in life! I would recommend Autumn to everyone!

My teammate and I needed new photos for a three tier marketing plan and headshots. Autumn clearly saw our vision and was able to make it a reality. 10/10 recommend her for anyone looking to up their business game!

Autumn is absolutely the most talented photographer we know and our wedding photos turned out breathtakingly beautiful! She managed to capture a bunch of details that we would have otherwise forgot about. She's so experienced with doing weddings and instructed us on where to stand, how to pose, etc, and that really saved us time and allowed us to get as many shots as possible. And she's a super sweetheart and just a wonderful person. Book her now!

Autumn was incredible. I cannot sing her praises enough. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, she captured every moment we wanted, she was easy to work with, and she was incredibly responsive to the over abundance of emails I sent her. The photos are more than we could have imagined. I love every single one of the nearly 2000 we have. At one point during the reception, my husband said "I feel like Autumn hasn't been here to take pictures, I haven't really seen her." The photos she delivered say otherwise.
She caught every moment and she wasn't in our or our guests faces while she did it, which I think is an incredible skill to have. I like that I didn't feel her hovering or I don't think we would have gotten the candid shots we wanted. Every expression was genuine and not a "smile for the camera" pose. The quality of the photos blew me away. The colors, the focus, the composition, and her attention to detail blew me away. If I could plan another wedding for a friend, she would be the first vendor I would book. I have nothing but amazing things to say about her work.
