Michele Cardamone is more than a photographer--she's someone who captures the heart of a moment and…read morepreserves it in a way that feels genuinely sacred. I've had the privilege of doing several sessions with Michele over the years, and the value of her work has only grown with time. She has photographed my family in a way that truly reflects who we are, including some of the most meaningful pictures I have of me and my grandma. My grandma has since passed, and I cannot put into words how much those photos mean to me now. They are treasured, irreplaceable reminders of love, connection, and presence--and I'm endlessly grateful Michele had the gift of capturing that so beautifully. Michele has also been there through different seasons of my life. She took photos of me as a teenager, and most recently, she photographed me as I stepped into the final stage of my career path--transitioning into a nurse practitioner. What sets Michele apart is how she makes you feel. I'm naturally shy in front of a camera, but she creates an environment that feels safe, uplifting and even powerful!She has a way of bringing out your true self--helping you feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful without anything feeling forced. Honestly, working with Michele feels like a form of self-love. Getting your photos back--of you, your family, your milestones-- is such a gift. For me it helped me see my family from and outside perspective- and for my solo sessions, it actually increased my self confidence and self love! Her editing is timeless and stunning, but what I love most is that she never edits out the realness. She captures emotion, connection, and the little in-between moments that make a photo feel alive. If you're considering booking with Michele, do it. I would recommend her for any photography needs, without hesitation. You'll walk away with more than "pictures"--you'll have memories preserved with care, artistry, and so much heart

Had the pleasure of working with Gregg to photograph my surprise proposal to my now-fiance at the…read moreMaroon Bells. He was thorough, professional, and friendly. We started with a few phone calls to discuss the shoot, evaluate location options, and then finalize on a plan. Day-of, he was there on-time, prepared, and ready to capture the proposal. We also took an additional hour to shoot a few other locations to create a well-rounded album of engagement photos. Gregg's rate was $650 per hour which was reasonable among Aspen-area photographers I spoke with (sometimes Gregg does offer promotional discounts too). Turnaround time is ~10-14 days for the photos. No real cons to speak of. He can be a bit loquacious, but overall is just a friendly, genuine person. I would recommend him and will likely work with him again for our Aspen photography needs.

Gregg and Cath Photographers far exceeded my expectations when arranging and photographing my…read moreengagement. I could not have done it without the both of you...thank you so much for making this moment in my life incredibly special! They listened to what mattered to me, found the ideal surreal mountain backdrop, made all the arrangements with a perfect game plan that worked to a tee. They did it all while capturing incredibly imaginative imagery for us to revel now with our family and friends. Their fun and caring personalities rocked giving my fiancé and I the freedom to enjoy the moment to the fullest. If I could sum up my experience by saying that you "knocked it out of the park" with all that you provided for us would be an understatement! We would love to have you back again to photograph our wedding too!!
