Jacob + Sara’s
Wedding Photography Proposal
June 13th, 2024 | Riverside, CA
“She was the only photographer that took notes during our meeting...If you are looking for someone who will listen to your needs/wants...she is the one to go to! If I could get married again, she would be the one I choose.”
— Naomi O.
Hi, Sara! It was so nice chatting with you and hearing about your wedding day. It sounds like you’re looking for a photographer who:
understands that your wedding is not a photoshoot. Rather, it’s a celebration of your love where a professional photographer happens to be present.
knows how to take formal posed portraits efficiently and in a stress-free manner - so you can get back to the celebration.
understands that you were already on the fence about hiring a professional photographer, so you don’t want to be confused with a bunch of products and services you don’t need or aren’t interested in.
has experience producing beautiful images even with very tight timelines and strict venue regulations.
is skilled at photographing people who aren’t necessarily excited about taking photos and won’t make them feel uneasy or irritated on their wedding day.
knows how to go with the flow and be adaptable when things don’t go 100% according to plan — (I have 325+ weddings and 10+ years of 911 dispatching experience to thank for that! :)
I’m confident I can bring your vision to life!
“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.

“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.
Next Steps
Ask me anything
Sometimes couples want some clarification about something in their proposal. I’d love to jump on another call to answer any questions that might come up.
Collaborate
You want a personalized photo experience that feels like you. We can reconfigure it until it’s perfect.
Reserve your date
If you saw a collection that does feel perfect, let’s get June 13th booked! Your retainer would only be $500 with the remaining balance due 30 days before your wedding.
“Hundreds of beautiful pictures and not a single bad picture. What more could I ask for?! Do yourself a favor and hire Carsten. She is absolutely worth it!”
