I am floored by how utterly beautiful the photographs Kavya took and edited are. My husband, 10 month old baby and I went to the Natural Bridges beach park in Santa Cruz for a 20 minute Fall Mini Session, expecting maybe a few photos would be cute enough for a holiday card and to frame in our house, but she sent us a gallery of like 90 STUNNING images. I don't know how she managed to get that in just 20 minutes, I'm seriously in awe. She was delightful to work with as well, very easygoing, friendly, and our 10 month old -- who has been getting stranger anxiety with everyone lately -- immediately warmed up to her. The images she captured of him smiling and playing ended up being fantastic because of that. She also took the best pictures I've ever seen of my husband ever. I didn't imagine we could get such beautiful photos, and I'm beyond pleased. She also had an extremely fast turnaround, just about a week and a half. Do not hesitate to have Kavya take your family/couple/engagement photos. I'm not big on writing reviews in general but am so inspired by this great experience with her.

I can't say enough great things about our wonderful engagement photoshoot with Kavya. We had to wait on the weather, but she was happy to work with our schedules and chase the sun when it came out. She hiked out with us through the redwoods and we caught the last light of the day. My fiancé and I are not used to being in front of the camera but Kavya made it easy with great instructions, fun props, and a professional but personable approach. I wouldn't call myself the most emotional but some of her photos had me near happy tears. These are photos that will be cherished a lifetime.

Kavya was very professional and GREAT to work with. We received our photos very quickly and they are beautiful! Not only she she provide a wonderful finished product but she also captured family moments during our wedding that otherwise would have been missed. Thank you Kavya!

Kavya could not have done a better job with our engagement photos! She was prompt to reply and arrange a rather quick appointment with us as we were on a deadline. She was friendly and professional throughout the shoot, providing the right amount of suggestions/tips to get the perfect shots without being overbearing. She is also quite adventurous, climbing down rocks with camera in hand to get to a beach in order to get the perfect shot! I ended up with so many great pictures that she sent within 2 days after the shoot. I would definitely recommended her for all your photography needs.

Loved our photos from Kavya! Her super-friendly personality made us feel comfortable even though we aren't usually comfortable in front of cameras. The whole experience was easy & fun, & she even went out of her way to bring a little chalkboard as a prop! She gave us hundreds of photos, beautifully edited, after only 2-3 days. Highly recommend!
