Wedding Photography Proposal
September 20th, 2025 | Botanica | Oceanside, CA
“I don't know where to start, let's go with BOOK HER, NOW. STOP READING AND BOOK HER! Carsten is an amazing photographer who knows what the heck she is doing. She takes the time to get to know you as a couple (we did our engagement photos and wedding photos with her) and makes sure you are comfortable and just captures every beautiful moment.”
— Tatiana W.

*Who are the associate photographers?
They’re a carefully curated small bunch of extremely skilled full-time professional wedding photographers whom I’ve hand picked to best serve my wedding clients. Not only are they the people I’d trust to document my own wedding, but they’re also the people I trust with my business reputation. They’re amazing human beings whom my clients adore just as much as I do. When you choose to work with one of my associate photographers, all editing and pre-wedding communication is still done through me.
“We just received our wedding photos and cried the whole time looking through them! We can’t stop going through them — we love every detail that she captured.”
— Jake + Tiffany

“She goes above and beyond in terms of her editing, making random runs on the wedding day if you forgot something, keeping everyone in the party calm during the getting ready hectic moments, taking charge when family started to butt in, and making you feel so special on your day. 10/10 would book her again.”
— Amy L.
