Carley, I don’t know how to tell ya, and I’m sometimes over-enthusiastic, but here it goes...
My day with you was honestly, truly one of the best ones in my life! You knew how to put me at ease and I hardly felt like I was being photographed! Just seemed like we were hanging out and every now and then, you whipped out that lil wand of yours and worked that magic. 
Your personality is absolutely terrific and pure joy just flowed from you, you are totally beautiful!

I never could have imagined my pictures turning out as they did. Carley, you rock!!!

A faithful fan, Elisabeth

P.S. When I get engaged, married, and beyond, my photography is getting done by you!

Carley! Taking pictures with her was the most fun I’ve in a long time. She made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera and genuinely laugh with her jokes. I will definitely recommend Carley to all of my friends in need of beautiful photos!

Carley is welcoming and warm through all communication and during the photo session. While putting people at ease with kindness and explanations, she effortlessly captures beauty and essence through her lens. A true artist, Carley embodies professionalism and courtesy. She has a sweet and caring nature that comes through while she works, so the experience feels natural and comfortable. While my experience was with senior photos for my eldest daughter, I know Carley would do a remarkable job capturing any monumental moment in a life. I cannot recommend Carley Marie enough for any photographic work.

Hi Carley,

You are truly such a wonderful human being and everyone who meets you is truly blessed. Thank you for always opening your heart up to everyone! You are a beautiful soul!

Dear Carley,
I had the most beautiful, joyful experience with you. You instantly made me feel comfortable through our similar experiences, and then made me laugh through our flower adventures. Someone finally named my laugh the "giggly grace!" I love how you knew me so well after only a few minutes. You have so much natural skill and were lightning quick with telling me how to pose and when to laugh and smile. You knew my style and let me take awesome guitar pictures! Your inner beauty shines forth through all you do, and you are so inspiring by having your own freelance business. I hope young girls can learn from your example. God Bless You!
Love, Grace

Hi Miss Carley,
I had such a great time and enjoyed taking photos. There was never a dull moment in the session. (I felt the chill vibes. It was lit!) I absolutely love my photos! You are an amazing, encouraging, and kind human being and I am so blessed I got to meet you. Thank you so much!

Dear Carley,

Thank you so much for the beautiful senior photos that you took of Lucia. There are no words that cannot express and describe the talent and passion you possess as a photographer. Upon looking at each photograph, no one could ever guess that we were surrounded by a very blustery and extremely frigid day. There were times where we could barely feel our fingers because of the cold air. But you had the ability to put Lucia at ease and make light of the not so wonderful weather we encountered that Saturday morning. Your sense of vision, creativity, and unique perspective captured Lucia’s spirit and natural beauty. You are very talented and have a poetic touch to every photo you take. It was a pleasure working with you and we are delighted with the simply amazing photos you took of Lucia. You are a true artist!!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Daniela and Lucia

I had the best time shooting with Carley! She made me feel at ease right away with her bright smiles and quick jokes. I didn't think I was posing for a photographer, but for a friend. Carley was very sweet in suggesting poses and landscapes; I could not have asked for better weather, a location, or a photographer. Thank you for everything!!

Hi Carley!
As a mom, the senior picture moment is so difficult! I am so proud of Kaitlyn and the person she is becoming. These pictures perfectly reflect her personality. I am so thankful that we found you and were able to experience your charming, kind personality during her photo shoot! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
