Marissa was wonderful to work with! She was so helpful in planning my surprise proposal in Discovery Beach Park. I was totally new to the city of Seattle, my girlfriend now fiancé were there for the week for travel so I totally relied on Marissa for the best spots to propose and she did not disappoint! She was very keen on what I wanted in terms of an intimate moment and provided clear directions on how to get to the proposal spot! She did a wonderful job of being discreet to capture the special moment. The beach was amazing, we drove to another spot on the beach area to take more pictures by a field. We loved Marissa's energy throughout the photography session. The pictures came out amazing! read more

We had a wonderful experience with Marissa for our engagement photos! She made us feel completely comfortable and at ease throughout the entire session, which was especially important since neither of us is particularly comfortable in front of a camera. The photos came out absolutely beautiful and felt so authentic to us. Nothing looked overly posed or unnatural, instead, she perfectly captured our relationship and our story together in a genuine, effortless way. We are so grateful to have these memories documented so beautifully and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who creates both stunning and natural images. read more

Marissa and Erik are fantastic. They are extremely professional, detail oriented and experienced in their work. We had the pleasure of working with this duo for our engagement shoot as well as our wedding. Every step of the way Marissa and Erik wereready to answer questions, keep us in the loop and be flexible. When it comes to a high stress event like a wedding, they were able to calm my nerves by keeping us well informed. There aren't enough words to express my gratitude and respect for this team. I was so impressed with Marissa and Erik's work ethic, and their photographer work is just an extension of that. My husband and I now have priceless memories captured to enjoy for the rest of our lives. I can honestly say it brings a tear to my eye the sheer beauty and magic they captured on our wedding day. When it comes to preserving such special moments (weddings, engagements, etc.), and you're considering hiring Ciccarelli Photography, just do yourself a favor and book them. You will not regret it and you'll have the peace of mind knowing you are in good hands. read more

We can't recommend Marissa and Erik enough! We first met them in 2015 when they did our engagement photos. I still remember how comfortable and special they made us feel during the session, and our photos were amazing! As our wedding was out-of-state, we have been anxiously awaiting the next opportunity to work with them. Fast forward nine years to the birth of our daughter, and we had the same amazing experience in our newborn session. Marissa again made us feel so special and comfortable; we felt like we were catching up with an old friend. Her passion for what she does shines through every interaction, and she captured our pure joy in stunning photos we will treasure forever! We look forward to more family sessions in the years to come! read more

Marissa photographed our wedding at The Edgewater Hotel and we couldn't be more pleased with our experience. Her calm and easygoing manner put everyone at ease so that we felt and looked relaxed for our photos. Marissa's efficiency and flexibility ensured that we got all of the family photos that we wanted without any extra stress or delay. She was timely and clear with communication from the first point of contact through the entire wedding day. We have just seen our sneak peak of pictures but are very happy with them so far, as we expected to be! read more

Marissa and Erik are simply the best. We instantly connected during our initial conversation when Marissa gave us the best advice -- other than your partner, you spend most of your time on your wedding day with your photographers, so make sure they are people you enjoy and who make you feel awesome. We had a BLAST with the Ciccarelli's, from our engagement-style anniversary shoot to our big day, we felt like we were spending time with dear friends. We will absolutely remain lifelong supporters of their family business (and we can't wait for our next excuse to work with them again). While we could go on about the millions of reasons they are best of the best, here are a few standout qualities that we valued the most: Unwavering support: We were among the brides/grooms who navigated wedding planning during a pandemic. Marissa and Erik were incredibly kind and patient when we needed to postpone our date. Stellar communication: Leading up to the wedding, the Ciccarelli's were both proactive in their communication around our wedding day timeline so we knew exactly what to expect and incredibly responsive to our questions/concerns. Invaluable direction: Marissa and Erik strike the perfect balance of firm, friendly, and fun when directing photos. They ensured we kept to our timeline so that we got every last photo on our shot list (and more) without making the day feel rushed or stressful. They gave us and our wedding party clear direction on how to pose/make adjustments so that we all looked and felt our best. STUNNING photos: From day one we were in awe of the Ciccarelli's photography style. When we looked through both our engagement and wedding albums, there were too many favorites to count. http://blog.ciccarelliphotography.com/?p=14102 read more

Marissa was fantastic from the very beginning! She assisted in finding a location we loved and gave lots of advice on what outfits look good on camera. My fiancé and I are uncomfortable in front of a camera, and she made the whole evening fun. We left smiling, laughing, and surprised at how easy it was. She even included our pup in the pictures. The gallery she sent was super accessible and easy to share with family. Probably most important, we LOVE the photos!! read more

I LOVE working with Marissa! We have worked with her a few times now and each time the photos are absolutely incredible! She first took some extended family photos for us. She is so great working with people of all ages - my son was 1 at the time and my grandparents were in their 80s. She is really thoughtful during the shoots and makes sure that everyone is looking good and having fun! She is SO good with kids! She can always manage to make my son laugh and capture the moment! We have since worked with her on a family/ maternity shoot as well as another extended family shoot. My extended family now considers Marissa part of our holiday traditions! And of course, each time the photos come out beautifully! She and her husband are so talented! read more

Marissa was an excellent photographer who captured my daughter's one year-old photo session. She was so pleasant to work with and answered all of my questions and concerns before the session. She even gave us small tips to help make the session go smoother and advice on what to wear depending on the ambiance we wanted in the picture. On the day of the shoot, she directed us to a location she previously scouted out. Marissa has children of her own so she knew some tricks on how to get our daughter's attention with songs, noises, etc. The pictures turned out excellent and it made me wish I had found her earlier to capture our other family photos. I highly recommend Marissa! read more

Ciccarelli Photography - From a wedding we did with them this past summer :) - Event Photography Near Me - Seattle, Washington

When my wife and I were planning our wedding, photography was one of the most important things to us. We spent a lot of time looking, and ultimately Marissa and Erik were recommended to us! Not only are these two incredibly talented technically, but they are funny, warm, and have a true knack for capturing people as they are. Plus they have been incredibly communicative and nailed every deadline they set (wedding photos came in 30 days on the dot!). I could go on and on, but from start to finish everything was amazing. My wife and I will look back at these photos and forever remember our day and the incredible experience we had with Ciccarelli Photography. Could NOT recommend them more, wish I could give ten stars! read more

Marissa made our session fun on a typical Seattle rainy day. Given the circumstances, our photos turned out very well. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family. read more

We worked with Marissa for a maternity photo shoot, and not only did the photos turn out incredibly beautiful, but Marissa was just an amazing human being to work with. On the way home, my cheeks were hurting from laughing and smiling so much. What a fun experience! We will most certainly be using Ciccarelli Photography to capture other life events and highly recommend them to anyone on the search. read more

I learned about Marissa's great work through our daughter who used Marissa for her engagement and wedding photos. The photos were beautiful - innovative and refreshing shots - Marissa captured the spirit of the moments so well! When I was looking for someone to take professional headshots I immediately thought of Marissa and she did a fabulous job! She provides guidance on the studio session and great communication on what to expect with the final product. She was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend anyone looking for a talented photographer who makes people feel confident and comfortable to consider Ciccarelli. read more

My husband now, fiance then, stumbled upon Marissa & Erik Ciccarelli online while searching for wedding photographers...and boy, what a find! I'm so thankful that he found them! From our first interactions by phone, we could tell they were so genuine and happy for us. We couldn't help but be even more excited for our wedding! We first met with them for our engagement session and just had a ball! They both immediately greeted us with warm smiles and hugs! They make you feel at ease and just make you laugh and feel as if there are no cameras around. They both just oozed positive energy! We were really worried about looking and feeling awkward, but it just came natural to be ourselves around them. Our engagement photos turned out amazing! They really captured US...and that is what we wanted. During the whole wedding planning process, they are with you all the way. They checked up on us and provided support and really made it apparent that they were there for you...whether it be photography-related or not. That really meant a lot to us! Now for our wedding...Marissa & Erik really exceeded our expectations and went beyond what we wanted and expected! They really listen to what you're looking for and are very receptive. They made everyone feel comfortable and most importantly, made us laugh! Before and during the wedding, they were punctual, efficient, and very organized. This definitely helped with the stress of having a wedding! I was impressed by the way Marissa directed everybody during post-wedding photo sessions. She was direct; friendly, but stern; and organized. We were done in no time and full of smiles! We were beyond happy with all of our wedding photos!! They turned out amazing!! It was such a joy to look through all of them as they captured every moment and emotion we wanted captured! There's no doubt, a lot of stress and planning is expected when it comes to a wedding. But Marissa & Erik made it so much easier and so much fun! We couldn't have asked for better photographers! Hands down.. best decision we made for our wedding! Well, besides choosing each other! read more

We must of looked at 30+ vendors before going with the Ciccarellis. Photography was very important to us. And we're so glad that we went with Erik and Marissa! When we first met Erik and Marissa, we couldn't help but like them right away. We just clicked. We knew that we liked their work but after meeting them in person, we could tell that they would be comfortable and fun to work with. Not only that but Erik and Marissa kept in touch throughout the wedding planning process to make sure that nothing was missed. They are so helpful and flexible every step of the way. And they definitely exceeded our expectations when it came to the wedding day! We did an engagement shoot at the Freeway Park and our wedding took place at the Fremont Foundry. Being the professionals that they are, Erik and Marissa scoped out the both areas beforehand to find good picture spots. On the day of the wedding, they were so organized. Erik and Marissa were on top of things and really helped keep us on schedule. Not only that but they were really flexible to accommodate impromptu photo sessions with each table. Anyone who's been around my extended family knows how hectic family photos can be. However they handled it flawlessly! And the work...AMAZING! They are incredibly talented and were able to capture our love in such a beautiful way. We had so many people gush over the photos that we ended up including prints of each guest for their thank you cards. As a whole, our experience with Erik and Marissa was incredible and we can't recommend them enough. Seriously, they are the dream team! Book them now!!! read more

My now-husband and I were married just last month. We were admittedly a bit regretful the morning after our wedding, thinking "man, we should've hired a videographer, we want to relive the whole day all over again." Upon getting our photos back from Erik & Marissa (early, I might add!), we both agreed that there is was no need for a videographer with pictures like these! The way they are able to capture emotion right in the moment is pretty incredible. I can remember exactly how we were feeling and the energy of those special moments just by looking at these photos. Our wedding photos are hands-down the best money we spent on our wedding day. Working with Erik & Marissa was easily the least stressful part of the wedding planning process. The way they're able to put clients at ease, communicate regularly and openly with suggestions for making the day flow seamlessly and capture emotion in their work is so impressive. Don't hesitate in reaching out to Erik & Marissa to capture your big day! read more

Marissa has been our corporate photographer for over six years. We appreciate how she can make a potentially awkward situation, like corporate head shots, feel relaxed and natural. Her smile and professionalism win people over every time. Marissa has also done formal photos of our lab and office space, getting the right lighting and tone to set up the perfect shot to highlight. Five stars for Ciccarelli! read more

We had the best experience with Erik and Marissa for our 2016 wedding in Seattle! From the first phone call, to the meet and greet session, to the big day and even throughout the follow-up, they made us feel so special and like our day was truly worth celebrating. They had an amazing way of showing how excited and honored they were to capture your moments. A huge plus is how efficient they were at getting through the various combinations of group shots so they could focus on the more fun and intimate shots. The photography package was reasonably priced and worth every penny. We've received so many compliments on our photos and our friends and family were so impressed that they captured "us." I would highly recommend Ciccarelli Photography for your photography needs! I seriously couldn't imagine having had a better experience. read more

We were recommended Marissa through a friend and she did a beautiful job with our family photos. We weren't sure how things would go with our four-month-old baby, but she brought high energy to the shoot to keep him engaged. Her response times to emails were also very fast and photos were turned around in less than two weeks. I had made a special request to do not just close-ups of our family but some bigger, wide angle artsy shots. We were so happy with the results! Will definitely reach out to Marissa again when our boy gets a little older and can run around a bit. She made us feel very comfortable during the shoot and provided specific directions. I find that super helpful when the photographer guides you through poses so you don't feel awkward. It was like getting photos taken by an old friend! read more

We had a small ceremony in 2017 at the Volunteer Park Conservatory. It was a dream for my husband and I, and today we feel so happy to have chosen Marissa & Erik Ciccarelli to capture our special day. They were very professional from the moment we sent the first email and during the entire session, making us laugh and feel super comfortable. We had some ideas of what we wanted, and they helped us with many more. They were even prepared with the cutest umbrella to keep me dry while outside in the rain (Seattle!). We got our photos and video right on time and the platform was easy to use. It was a great experience working with them! Thank you! read more

I think these are the most amazing photographers on earth. I say that both as an amateur photographer, and as someone who has a few close friends who are wedding photographers. My fiance and I hired Marissa and Erik for our very small elopement. Since there would be no family present - it was really important to us to find someone who could 'capture all the moments' that they could not personally witness. We communicated that we would prefer a 'photojournalism' like shoot - and man, did they deliver 1000% on that. All the photos feel very natural, are beautifully lit, and feel very 'in the moment'. On top of being amazingly skilled, and having a great eye, they are true professionals. I got a glimpse of their equipment - and let me tell you: they sport the real deal stuff. Soft focus optics, reallllly good lenses (any photographer worth their salt knows an investment in lenses is really what separates the photo class 101 folks from the pro's). These folks are fully prepared to make you look great in any setting or lighting. Marissa did most of the pose work and pre-wedding communication - and we found her very easy to work with. She is efficient, organized, and very good at giving directions - which is perfect when you tend to be awkward and a bit uncomfortable with being photographed. She also sent us a very handy list of vendors and locations to choose from before the wedding! The photos were done *really fast* (3 days - wow!), GLOWINGLY BEAUTIFUL, and sent everybody's parents into tears. My grandma said that I created the "glow" - but I think it was a multiple thousand dollar lens kit plus the Ciccarelli's who did all that (...yeah, yelp, don't tell my grandma I said that ok?)! Thank you Ciccarelli's! You are awesome! We will definitely come back for more. read more

Ciccarelli Photography - Gorgeous images by Marissa and Erik (Ciccarelli Photography)! - Event Photography Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Working with this lovely couple was amazing! We contacted many photographers for our wedding, and instantly fell in love with the Ciccarellis. They took the time to speak to us over the phone to gather as much information as possible. Then they met up with us in person to be sure we vibed well together. It's hard to imagine anyone not being able to get along with these two. They clearly not only are experts in what they are doing, but care so deeply about being a part of the love they are photographing. They helped us plan the perfect timelines for our wedding day which helped the whole day run completely smoothly. They also helped keep the energy high and everyone laughing for the best photos ever. We will most definitely use Ciccarelli for all future family developments, and highly recommend them to anyone. read more

Marissa has take our photos twice now and her work is magic! She always manages to capture the fun and the love our family has. She is so patient and our kids love her. Even the baby! My three year old had so much fun posing for the pictures with his broken wrist. Our sessions are a fun event! Would definitely recommend Ciccarelli Photography for any event! Love love love our photos! read more

Marissa was nothing short of amazing for our engagement shoot! She had a great vision for our pictures once we gave her an idea of what we were hoping for - making sure hair was tucked correctly and pics were snapped of so many candid moments. She captured every image we had an idea for, plus SO many amazing ones that she had in mind. We never felt rushed, and in fact felt she was really taking the time to get the perfect shots. We are thrilled with how they turned out and if we were getting married in Seattle we would not hesitate to hire her for our wedding! Thank you! read more

Marissa did our newborn photos with our first baby boy in our home. She took the time upfront to understand our story, get a better idea of the type of photos we wanted, and to ensure we had all of the desired props on hand. Anyone who has gone through this knows how hit or miss it can be given the temperament and patience of the baby. We knew we could end up with a bunch of photos of a crying baby. Marissa sent us detailed instructions on backgrounds, lighting, dress, and most importantly, baby prep. It was her attention to detail, her ability to set up and take an incredible shot very quickly, and her patience and willingness to take breaks for feedings etc that made the shoot a huge success. We received our photos and absolutely love them! We are so grateful to Marissa for capturing such a special moment in our lives, and we will definitely go back to her each year for more! Highly recommend!!! read more

Let me start by saying that it was one of our best decisions to have Marissa and Erik as our wedding photographers. When my husband and I were searching for photographers, we immediately fell in love with the natural but artistic photos displayed on their website. But meeting them in person for the first time exceeded our expectations. Marissa and Erik were so kind and easygoing, yet they were very professional and able to direct us to figure out the style and other details that we wanted. Throughout the wedding planning process, the communication was very easy and they responded to our emails quickly. Fast forward to our wedding day, Marissa and Erik did such an amazing job in capturing all the magical moments. We had our first look and a photo session after that. My husband and I can be a little timid with getting photographed but they made us feel so comfortable to laugh and do silly things in front of the camera. They also provided great ideas about posing and where to get the best-looking photos. They were amazing throughout the ceremony and reception. Despite the busy summer wedding season in Seattle, Marissa and Erik were able to deliver all our wedding photos promptly in 30 days! So professional! Needless to say, we LOVE our wedding photos and cannot say enough good things about this experience working with Ciccarelli Photography. read more

Never before has my family been motivated to take an official family portrait, but there are suddenly spouses and grandchildren and dogs and it finally seemed like a good idea. A good idea to about half of us, that is. The other half were just going to have to grin and bear it. But then the unimaginable happened! They actually *enjoyed it*! In fact, my "I will do this because my mother, my sister and my wife want me to" brothers each called me to discuss the fact that HEY! THOSE CICCARELLIS WERE REALLY GOOD AT WHAT THEY DO! AND PS, I REALLY LIKED THEM TOO! So we're all Erik and Marissa fans and we're glad that I accidentally stumbled across their Living Social deal, but we were withholding final judgment until we saw the pictures. I am very pleased to report that a CD with our photo bounty arrived yesterday and there are really great pictures of everyone - some posed and some candid, some funny and some beautiful. Thank you to Erik and Marissa for A) creating a photographic record of my family on that day of our lives and B) proving me right. read more

We hired Erik and Marissa to take engagement photos of us. First of all, let me start off by writing that they were amazing! Their reviews on yelp were impeccable. But, what really set them a part from everyone else was how personable everyone described them to be. This was our first time taking professional photos so it was kind of awkward for us at first. They assured us that if it felt awkward, it will look great. They were professional yet fun, enthusiastic, and personal. It felt easy and not forced. Even after they took the photos, they continued to keep us in the loop. They even sent us a video they made with music in the background with some of our photos just as a preview. The best part was that we had access to all of the photos they took, which is not the case for a lot of photographers. We had so much variety, some were fun, others a bit more romantic, and several were very natural. Overall, I couldn't have been happier! I would recommend Erik and Marissa any day! read more

I cannot recommend these two photographers enough! Like everybody has said, these two are simply amazing to work with. I communicated with Marissa to shoot a last minute engagement session and she was kind enough to squeeze us in for one. I was impressed by how well she helped us prepare for the shoot; from giving advice on our outfits to recommending several places for our chosen theme. Though my fiancé and I are both awkward, they made us feel comfortable and enjoy everything. They gave great directions and right off the bat they said "don't worry about looking weird. The rule is: the weirder it feels, the better it looks on camera" We got the photos five days later and we absolutely love them! read more

We were recommended Ciccarelli Photography by a fried who also used them for their engagement and wedding. We are so happy we chose them. They have been nothing short of great! They were so helpful in helping us pick out an engagement photo session day and time that would work best based on the season we were in. Not only that, when my husband tore his Achilles 2 weeks before our scheduled photo shoot, they were beyond accommodating. They helped come up with creative photo positions since my husband was in a cast and crutches. Additionally, they let us have a second photo session when my husband was out of a cast and had full function of his leg, so that we could get all the engagement photos we had imagined. For our wedding day, again, they were nothing short of amazing. They captured some of the most amazing photos that I'm just in love with. We have a rather large extended family and they had all of our notes and photo shots down. It was so streamlined and easy. We had so much fun working with them. They are open to your photo ideas and very accommodating and flexible. Not to mention, their photos are amazing. Truly worth every penny. I really can't say enough about Ciccarelli Photography. I highly recommend them. I will definitely use them again for future family photos. read more

If you're reading this review, you're probably trying to pick a photographer for your wedding or some other big life event. Please save yourself the time and hire the Ciccarelli's already, you will not regret it! Erik and Marissa are the dream team.  Not only are they wonderful people (which is a really big deal since you're going to be spending a lot of your wedding day with them), but they take stunning photos.  I can't keep track of the amount of friends and family who have commented on how beautiful our wedding photos are AND how Erik and Marissa had such a wonderful demeanor on our wedding day.  Organizing photos among large families and bridal parties is no easy task, but they did it with ease.  Some photographers get visibly frustrated, bossy, etc., and I get it, it's a hard job, but that's not the type of vibe anyone wants on their wedding day.  Instead, Erik and Marissa bring joy and fun to the entire day.  Due to COVID, we had to reschedule our wedding three times, and while not every vendor could be accommodating during this difficult time, I think it's important to call out those truly special vendors who went above and beyond and did everything they could to make it easy on their couples. That's what the Ciccarelli's did for us.  We can't wait to work with them again for future family photos.  Thank you Erik and Marissa, you are the best! read more

Marissa and Erik are locals who know the best spots for photos at any time of year. They are relaxed so you can be relaxed during the shoot. They are also super timely in the responses to queries and never miss their two weeks post photo shoot turnaround time. We are three time users of their incredible talent and recommend without hesitation. read more

We bought a session with Marissa and Erik using LivingSocial. We were looking for an outdoor family photo shoot with our 9 month old and could not have made a better choice! We set up an appointment via email a few months ago, as we were looking to get our pictures taken around a specific event. Marissa sent out a few questions to understand us better and picked a beautiful outdoor location. On the day of the shoot, they showed up on time, and even thought about bringing a blanket for our daughter's individual shots. They took some amazing pictures which captured the joy in our hearts, the smiles of our family as well as pure emotion. In addition, they turned around our photos in just two days and sent us the high resolution pics online as well as in a CD (which came in a week). We truly enjoyed the session and will definitely consider them for our next session! read more

I highly, highly recommend Marissa for your family photos! Marissa was very responsive and super helpful leading up to our family photo session - suggesting tips on clothing, how to prep our toddlers for a good session, and more. During the session itself, we were impressed at how well Marissa engaged our two young boys from the get-go and got them to take amazing photographs while having a lot of fun doing it. Her style was a perfect blend of directing all of us to maximize each photo opportunity while also letting things unfold organically. We just received the photos and they look as great as we felt on the day of the shoot, and at a price that was very reasonable. We will definitely be turning to Marissa for our future family portraits. read more

I hired Erik and Marissa to do our engagement photos. I've only been in the Seattle area for a year and a half and my fiancee was coming from Toronto so we did not know the city well at all. Thankfully Marissa was able to provide a lot of suggestions for possible locations for shoots and we decided on Ballard, which was exactly what my fiancee and I were looking for. During the shoot, both Erik and Marissa's demeanor made the shoot as casual feeling as possible. Despite having us pose in the middle of the road, in the middle of sidewalks with people walking by, neither of us felt out of place. Overall, I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a wedding or engagement shoot. read more

Extremely Professional and Talented. We have had the pleasure of seeing our friends use the Ciccarelli's for their weddings, maternity and newborn photos. We have always been so impressed by their keen eye on creating a feeling in their photos instead of a cheesy staged photo session. One of the best decisions we could have made during my pregnancy was booking Ciccarelli Photography. Not only did our pictures turn out beautifully - but Marissa was incredibly easy to work with from beginning to end. From scheduling and deciding on a location, to including our dog, she was incredibly flexible and easy going. She also provided us with follow up emails on tips of what to wear and reminders to bring treats and toys for our dog to keep him engaged. We highly suggest meeting with the Ciccarelli's and booking them for any upcoming photo needs you may have. read more

We moved to the Sea-Tac area from NC around my daughter's first birthday, we wanted to get pictures done before moving but didn't have the time. We are so glad we waited until we got here and found the Ciccarelli's. We did a family shoot/one year photo's of our daughter. We had the pictures done in October at Owen beach. They showed up a little earlier than us to scope out the beach and to find what best works for the photo session we wanted. Also it helped maximize our time so we didn't feel rushed, which also allowed for more picture opportunities. They also brought awesome props. They were more than accommodating! Charlotte, our daughter, loved them! They were so patient with her. We scheduled the photos for 2pm on a Saturday and it was forecasted to rain that day (not a surprise), but we were hoping for some sun. At 11am the sun came out, Marissa and Erik were able to meet us within 30 minutes to capture our family shoot in the sun. They were so flexible and completely prepared. The Ciccarelli's have such a talented and it's clearly captured in their photos. We will use the Ciccarelli's for all our photo sessions in the future! read more

The Ciccarelli's are fantastic and we couldn't recommend them more. They captured both our wedding and engagement sessions beautifully - and the fact that they work together means we had even more angles of our big day. They're both kind, wonderful people and made us feel at ease during our shoot. Our only issue - making a book was so hard because we had so many incredible photos to choose from! We had to make 4! :) Thank you Marissa & Erik! We loved our wedding day and your photos let us relive them! read more

We cannot say enough WONDERFUL things about Erik & Marissa, both as (the best) photographers, and as being amazing people to work with. We happened upon the Ciccarelli's to do our wedding photography, and truly can't imagine the day without them. They are so kind and pleasant to work with, and the pictures speak for themselves. We have had endless people raving over our wedding pictures, to this day several years later. They are very creative, but also keep in mind what you ask for, which for us was also having all the "classic" wedding shots with family, etc. We were blown away with the quality of their work, as well as the class with which they do their job. After our wedding pics, they were enlisted to do newborn photography after we had our baby girl. It was so lovely having them over and I knew they would take amazing baby and family pictures, even in a time when I was not feeling like I looked my best. They are pictures we will treasure forever! We are about to have our 6 month family photos done with them as well, because we clearly cannot get enough of these two and their fabulous photos! read more
