"I highly recommend Cali for ANY photographer needs - senior photos, couples portraits, family photos, engagement/wedding/anniversary or any other event photography. She was very helpful in providing the "gentle" guidance normal people need to have photos taken and look like models; and made our hour together really fun while maintaining the utmost professionalism. I am looking forward to our next reason to get photos taken! Thank you Calista!"

"I had such a wonderful experience working with Cali! She is super laid back, and just goes with the flow. She made me feel like I was just hanging out with an old friend. My maternity photos came out way better than I could’ve ever imagined, and she gave me something I will cherish for the rest of my life. I would absolutely recommend her for any of your photography needs!"
