CALIFORNIA AND TEXAS ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER + LIVE PROPOSAL COVERAGE
"I would 1000% recommend Cecily as your photographer to capture whatever special moment you are celebrating. I proposed to my fiancee at Point Dume in Malibu and the process was super easy, the pics were unbelievable. We have received comments by friends and family that these are the best pictures they ever saw. She provided us a sneak peek hours after our session and the full album was available a week after. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and she truly made our engagement an unforgettable moment." —Anthony Frabotta, live proposal client
"Cecily is the absolute best. She photographed my proposal to my then-girlfriend, now fiancee! I wanted to propose at one location, but upon scouting it, discovered there was no way I could pull off the surprise, so Cecily quickly swooped in with suggestions for several alternative, more discreet locations. It honestly couldn't have gone better. On top of all the legwork Cecily put in before a single photo was taken, she also delivered an entire gallery of absolutely astounding photos, all edited and at full resolution. She sent us a few finished edits for family and social media the very same night of the proposal and had the rest of them sent to us before we knew it. She has an eye for romantic moments in close-ups, and I also appreciated the wide shots incorporating a broader view of the beautiful location we had worked so hard to narrow down! If you get the chance, hire Cecily. It's a no-brainer." —Robert Brogden, live proposal client

My experience with Cecily was MAGICAL. We'd never done any family photos and I wanted to work with someone that would be collaborative with my vision (and there were 4 different looks I wanted). I talked to a few photographers but they all felt what I wanted wasn't within their scope...and then I found Cecily. WHAT. A. GIFT. From the very first moment I reached out - Cecily was responsive and supportive of what I wanted to accomplish. She made the ideas come to life. She scoped out locations, had me send photos of different light throughout the day at our house so we could time the silhouette shots perfectly. She helped me pick out wardrobe ahead of time and all of her ideas added so much to our shots. And that was all before she even arrived to our house. The best part was the day of—Cecily is so warm and made it so easy for me to be in front of the camera (which is not natural for me). She was beyond patient with our toddler and dog so we could get some great shots. I can't recommend Cecily more—she was a dream photographer! —Kate Griendling, family photo client
