My family had a mini session with Holly this past February, and she was wonderful! Within 30 minutes she captured a variety of shots and made everyone at ease with her warm manner. She is both friendly and professional, and was very easy to work throughout the process. Her work speaks for itself - the photos turned out fantastic!

We had a mini maternity photo session with Holly Castillo which exceeded all expectations. Holly was thoughtful about our poses, professionally directed us and was open to our requests. She had the photos completed and in my inbox a few days later, and they were stunning! I loved the lighting, the moments Holly captured and the overall style of her photography. Her skill level and work melted my heart and brought me to tears. I loved the photos she took, they were breathtaking portraits of our family and soon to be daughter.

Our engagement shoot was incredible, it was so easy to shoot with her. Both my husband & I don't really know what to do in front of a camera and she made it so easy. We love those photos. On our wedding day, it was just as much fun to shoot with her. She made sure she got all the shots, she took our requests and she knew where the perfect places were for our photos.
Communication with her is always simple. Also, extra props to her because at our wedding she was due to give birth 2 weeks later and she still showed up! She still shot for 8 hours and we can't thank her enough. She is amazing and we will definitely use her for future events! We can't recommend her enough!

Our experience with Holly was unique, but in a great way! Several months before our wedding, she let us know that she was pregnant. However, she took care of hiring an associate photographer (Natalie) that was amazing! And she is still going to take the time to edit our photos even though she literally just gave birth. Thank you!

Holly is a beautiful person and a great photographer! Not only are her results gorgeous, but she's fun to work with. My fiance and I did an engagement photo shoot with her last month, which we had won in a giveaway! My fiance can be a big goober and hard to manage in photos because he's too busy goofing off but she was able to work and get him to focus for a few shutters at a time The way she works with lighting and the tones she uses in her photography really makes them stand out. I love her candidness about her business!

Holly was amazing with my five kids who were in varying states of wanting their pictures taken. She let them be themselves as she did her work, and I got some great pictures that really capture my kids at this time (and that have them all looking at the camera at the same time)! Looking forward to booking with her again.

Holly did an excellent job capturing our son's first birthday. I forgot she was there (which is a good thing!) and she was able to capture candid moments that we otherwise would have missed. The quality of the photos she delivered were excellent and she was professional, courteous, and prompt with the delivery of the final edited photos.

We hired Holly for my daughters 18th birthday /graduation party. We couldn't be more pleased with her! She was professional from start to finish. She was flexible and easy to have at the party and always there to get great shots! She has a 'no problem attitude' which goes a long way with me!Her photos were beautiful and creative. I would recommend Holly for anyone who wants an excellent photographer to capture the most special moments.
