CREATING ART TO LAST A LIFETIME
My Approach
I believe photography is at its best when it allows you to be fully present in the experience itself. Whether we're exploring a new city, wandering through the mountains, or celebrating a chapter of your life close to home, my goal is to create an experience that feels relaxed, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable.
My approach combines editorial artistry with authentic connection. I'll guide you when needed, give you space when it matters, and pay close attention to the atmosphere, movement, and
details that make your relationship and experience uniquely yours. The result is imagery that appears cinematic, personal, and reflective of this season of your life.
From our first conversation to the delivery of your final gallery, I'm here to support you every step of the way. I want you to leave your session or wedding having shared an experience you'll always return to, with photographs that carry the atmosphere, connection, and emotion of this chapter of your life.

Gosh where do I even start?! Working with Glimmering images has got to be one of the best decisions I have made. Catarina’s work is truly stunning, and she is so much fun to work with!! I can be a bit shy and not know how to pose, but working with Glimmering images it’s like having your best friend take your pictures! Thank you Catarina for giving us the gift of capturing our special moments so beautifully!

Tailored Add-Ons To Enhance Your Wedding Story
THE PROCESS
01: inquire
The journey begins with a simple hello. Reach out through my contact form and share a bit about your vision: the date, location, and the love story behind it. From there, we’ll start shaping your experience together, ensuring every detail feels personal, effortless, and aligned with what matters most to you.
02. meet & greet
Once your inquiry lands in my inbox, we'll plan a time to connect, in person or virtually, whichever feels most comfortable for you. We'll chat through your vision, learn more about each other, walk through collections, contract information, and everything you need to feel confident moving forward. You'll also receive my Wedding Experience Guide, along with personalized planning resources tailored to your wedding, location, and overall vision. It's relaxed, collaborative, and all about making sure we're the right fit.
03. wedding day
On the day you say yes to forever, my role is to create space for you to fully experience it. I'll guide when needed and approach the day with a calm presence and an editorial eye. I'm drawn to atmosphere, movement, connection, and the details that give your celebration its own character. While you're celebrating with the people you love, I'll be creating imagery that reflects the experience, energy, and beauty of the day as it naturally exists.
04. image delivery
After your celebration, I'll carefully curate the strongest images from your day and deliver them through a private online gallery. From there, you'll select your favorite photographs to be artistically edited and finalized, unless your collection includes the full gallery experience. Your final images will be beautifully refined, easy to download, share, and print, and created to transport you back to the atmosphere and experience of your celebration.

THE FAQ
How do your wedding collections work?
Do you offer payment plans?
Send me an inquiry through my contact form or email, and we'll explore the experience and collection that best fits your celebration. Once your custom package is finalized, I'll send over your proposal and contract for review. To officially reserve your date, a retainer fee ranging from 15% to 35% of your total investment will be due, depending on your selected collection. Couples may then choose from three flexible payment plan options, allowing you to select the approach that works best for you. Once everything is secured, the planning officially begins.

How do your wedding collections work?
Do you offer payment plans?
I know how exciting it is to revisit your celebration, which is why I provide sneak peeks shortly after your session or wedding day. Depending on the collection you've selected, sneak peeks are delivered within 24 hours to 2 weeks. Final gallery delivery timelines vary by experience, with engagement and couples sessions delivered within approximately 2 weeks, elopements within 6 weeks, and full wedding celebrations within 8 weeks. Every gallery is carefully curated and artistically edited to reflect the atmosphere, connection, and experience that made your celebration uniquely yours, ensuring your final collection feels cohesive, elevated, and worth the wait.

How do your wedding collections work?
Do you offer payment plans?
Absolutely. I understand that every couple's financial needs are different, which is why I offer three flexible payment options. Couples may choose to pay in full, secure their date with a retainer and pay the remaining balance closer to the wedding, or select one of my monthly installment plans to spread payments out over time. During our consultation, we'll walk through each option together and choose the payment structure that feels most comfortable for you and your celebration.

Do you offer payment plans?
I primarily photograph weddings and sessions independently, as I love being able to move quietly and intentionally throughout your day. However, I am always happy to bring along a trusted second photographer if that's something you'd prefer or if it's included within your selected collection. During our consultation, we'll discuss the scope of your celebration and determine whether a second photographer would best support your vision and overall experience.

Yes! I currently offer 35mm film coverage as an add-on to weddings and sessions for couples who love the nostalgic, organic quality that film provides. I am also continuing my education and expanding my film experience to offer additional film formats and coverage options in the future. If film photography is something you're interested in incorporating into your celebration, I'd love to discuss how we can create a collection that reflects your vision and aesthetic.

Every celebration is different, which is why my wedding collections are designed to serve as a starting point rather than a one-size-fits-all package. Within my Wedding Experience Guide, you'll find a selection of thoughtfully curated collections outlining coverage options, included experiences, and investment details. From there, every collection can be customized to reflect your specific vision, priorities, and celebration. Whether you're planning an intimate local wedding, a destination experience, a multi-day celebration, or would like to incorporate film coverage, a second photographer, or additional experiences, we'll create a collection that feels tailored to you.
