Best day of my life documented with the best photos of my life
I hired Carsten precovid to do my wedding post covid. We ended up changing wedding plans like everyone else in California. We switched states and made it a smaller gathering. Carsten was the only vendor I NEEDED to still have, her talent is unmatched. She was so understanding and immediately made travel accommodations. She went over the new contract with me and was able to keep it at original quote by moving a few things and replacing it with her travel cost (she found the best rate). Even though we took off things like photo booth and second photographer (micro wedding - not necessary) I didn’t have the feeling like I was missing out on anything because of how well she manages the day of. She was with me right when glam started (10am) and stayed till 10pm when we forced her to not work another moment! She shimmied between grooms room and brides suite to capture beautiful images and lasting memories. All of these amazing qualities aside.. when we saw our photos we were shocked, they were the most stunning photos all of us (including our Marriott venue) had ever seen. Marriott even ended up using some our photos for their website.
She got our finals to us in 1.5 weeks - 700+ photos edited to perfection. Then created and mailed us our professional photo album - which was included in our contract - a few months later. She’s just great at what she does and has fun doing it. We get one chance to document this moment In life and if the photographer isn’t on point - that’s what you’ll have for the rest of your life to look back on. I would choose her again in a heartbeat, for any event. -

Connor S. Sent on 09/28/2020Carsten is just the BEST!
We originally planned to have our wedding in SoCal, but when Covid hit, we had to change plans to Central Oregon. Carsten was the first vendor we talked to who led off the conversation by putting our minds at ease saying "I'll refund you fully regardless of what my contract says". She didn't have to do that, but it was incredibly kind and speaks to her character. We decided to bring Carsten up to Central OR for the wedding as a result and seriously cannot say enough about our experience working with her. Carsten was completely in control, very well prepared, handled our crazy family with ease, and the pictures seriously speak for themselves. We'll have them for the rest of our lives to look back on and up around the house. The value, professionalism, and quality we got from Carsten were all top level, we can't recommend her enough for your wedding!Carsten Tice Photography's reply:
I so appreciate you taking the time to write this! It means the world to me. Thank you, thank you, thank you! -

You want to be best friends with her
My husband and I got married in June and Carsten was our photographer. We both have friends that are professional photographers in the wedding business. We consulted with them for our decision on our photographer and they were all impressed with Carsten. After meeting few photographers, I knew right away Carsten was the one. She was warm, friendly, and professional. Carsten is one of those people when you meet them you just want to be their best friend. she is very talented and will make you have genuine smiles because she is making you laugh with her "photographer lingo" . for example: "Smell your hair" or "walk with one foot in front of the other, like a tight rope" and her reassuring you with, "I promise this will look good in the photos". You feel ridiculous and laughing, but when you see the photos you look amazing! She was also very quick getting photos back. It took 4 days to get our engagement photos, and less than a month to get our wedding photos. She also gave us a sneak peak of 12 photos the next morning after our wedding (that was so amazing).Carsten Tice Photography's reply:
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for taking the time to write this! You are the sweetest ever. You and Sean made this job seem easy. I wish every wedding was as laid-back and fun as yours. "Wedding of the century!!!"
Working on your album design now. Can't wait for you guys to see it! :) -

Best photographer ever!!
Carsten was absolutely amazing to work with. Carsten captured the beauty and excitement of our engagement and wedding. My wife and I were 100% convinced that a “good photo” of us would never be taken. We were certain that we were the least photogenic people of all time, and yet Carsten was able to take this ugly mug of mine and get me looking like Brad Pitt.... and maybe a little like Denzel too. I suffered the same unfortunate lack of ability of take a decent photo as Chandler Bing did, until we had our first photo shoot with Carsten. Working with her was a blast, she helped us to relax and was able to take our awkward lack of “posing” ability and capture the biggest moments of our lives together in the most beautiful way. Our walls and social media are showered with these incredible images and we cannot thank her enough for. If you are looking for a photographer for a special occasion, look no further, Carsten is your gal! She’ll bring out the Brad Pitt and Beyoncé in you in the most fun, relaxed and professional way! -

Tiffany Sent on 02/22/2018As a bride who also works in the wedding industry, I had an interesting time trying to find the perfect photographer. We had found Carsten through one of my bridesmaids whose wedding Carsten had photographed. We loved that we were able to get a first hand account of what it was like to work with her and we just loved the photos she took of my bridesmaid’s wedding. When we reached out to her, Carsten was so friendly and easy to talk to! She was also straight forward and clear about what services she could do as our photographer and what we could expect from the different collections se had at the time. As a bride being photographed by Carsten, it was so much fun! My fiancee (then, now husband) and I took our engagement photos with her and not only were the photos so beautiful, we also had a blast hanging out and finding beautiful places to be backdrops. Even though my husband normally hates taking photos, Carsten was able to get us to not think about it and was able to capture some of the most beautiful and heartfelt moments of us. And another great part was, the photos reflected who we are- it wasn’t a ‘cookie cutter’ pose or anything like that. She was able to all of the little moments, and years of our relationship through her lens and that was a blessing for us. We just received our wedding photos and cried the whole time looking through them! We can’t stop going through them- we love every detail that she captured. There were so many beautiful moments with friends and family that she and her assistant perfectly captured and I highly recommend her!

Derek T. Sent on 12/30/2018Highly Recommended Photographer!
Carsten is an amazing photographer, professional and person. At our wedding, she was extremely pleasant and her imagination and creativity left us with memorable pictures that were unbelievable and unimaginable. She has a knack for position and catching symbolism within a photo and the creativity to make symbolism pop out of a photo. One of our favorites in particular, was a post card worthy photo that captures my wife and I in our first dance as we were positioned by the lit "Mr and Mrs" sign that popped out in the background. I highly recommend Carsten if you want to make the most of your memories. -

Brooke Sent on 07/25/2018It was an absolute joy to have Carsten photograph my wedding. She was accessible and helpful in the planning and on the day of she and her second photographer were busy getting shots of details and getting ready long before the wedding even started and stayed to take gorgeous sendoff pictures at the end of the night. She's professional but fun so posing for a million photos was so much more enjoyable than my husband had anticipated. Carsten knew the best timing to take perfect sunset pictures and was able to capture all the little moments of our big day in amazing detail. I HIGHLY recommend her!
Carsten Tice Photography's reply:
Brooke, I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to let other couples know about your experience with me. I appreciate your time so much. Thank you!!!! If every wedding were as beautiful and went as smoothly as yours, I’d be the happiest photographer in the world! -

Tiandra Sent on 12/14/2017Carsten had stepped in as our wedding photographer when a previous one had fell through. From the moment I requested a quote, to the day of our wedding, she was kind, attentive, flexible and professional. She made me feel special and understood the need for smooth planning for a wedding planned in such a short period of time. My photos, which is what I loved the most about my wedding, were absolutely stunning. They are all over my home and I love to see how gorgeous they came out and the quality of the work done. I am forever thankful that Carsten was my photographer and I highly recommend her to anyone planning they one-of-a-kind special wedding day, or any other occasion!
