Cai made me feel AMAZING. We got some great golden hour shots of me in 3 garments I sewed. His turnaround time was fast, and we had a ton of fun getting these shots. Can’t wait to work with him again in the future!

We haven't had our photo session yet so I'll have to come back and edit or write another review. But as far and hiring and working with us Cai has been great. We looked at his photos on Instagram and they were beautiful but a lot of landscape. We asked if he had any wedding shots since that was what we were looking to hire. Within a few minutes he sent a file with a Ton of photos of a beautiful wedding he photographed. The pictures were great. When he sent us the contract to fill out it was a bride and groom signature. We let him know it was two brides and again within minutes he responded saying he would edit the contract. That night we had a new one with a place for two brides to sign. He's been wonderful to work with so far and I can't wait to see how our photos turn out.
Details: Wedding • 25 people or fewer • Indoors • Flash drive • Physical proofs or prints • Bride or groom • $250 - $500 • Under $250

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is very flexible depending on your needs. If you decide to add to take/ away certain shots or add additional time to the photo shoot that is something we can always work around.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We will first go over any questions you may have for me first. Then we can discuss more specifics afterwards. Don't be shy in asking any questions!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been shooting nonstop for the last 3-4 years now. Take a look at my IG @caispictures for some of my work!
