Catherine Rhodes Photography

It’s hard to condense the words it takes to describe how incredible Catherine Rhodes is as a photographer and now friend. Catherine was the wedding photographer for my sister and many of our friends . After seeing her work & creativity in action, we without a doubt knew we wanted her to be the photographer to capture our special day. Catherine handles wedding day chaos with grace and execution. We had A LOT of photo groupings we wanted captured between our ceremony & reception, a nearly impossible task especially with the early setting sun. Catherine got them ALL!! And she did it in such an organized fashion, utilizing our wedding helpers and her assistants to quickly move each party on to the next captured moment. No stress or hurry was felt. Aside from the structured family & wedding party photos, she prioritized candid moments throughout the whole day. We cannot wait to see the entire gallery, as the sneak peeks have already brought us to tears. Catherine captured every emotion & feeling that was experienced during the best day of our lives. But WAIT THERE'S MORE. Catherine did our engagement session and a private bridal session for me. She made both of these sessions so fun and comfortable. My husband & I are not the most "modely" or "posing" type of people, and I joked with Catherine that she would have to keep an eye out for our commonly occurring double chin grins, big mouthed laughter, and my crazy curly hair that has a mind of it's own, ha!! Catherine miraculously photographed incredible pictures, that were genuine, natural, and SOMEHOW made our cheesing double chinned grins and wind-blown hair look beautifully "us." I adore Catherine. Her love and passion for photography and her business is evident. Her love and thoughtfulness towards her clients is so so felt and appreciated. Her genuine character is one to be admired. 10/10 would recommend Catherine as a photographer for all of your special days, moments, and timeless family photos. LOVE! More...

I cannot say enough amazing things about Catherine! She is incredibly talented, genuine and professional. She truly took the time to get to know me and my husband and that meant so much to us. Through getting to know us, she was able to beautifully bring our vision to life. We were both a little nervous for the engagement session, but she made us feel so comfortable. She made the experience fun and easy, while still incorporating our ideas and capturing our essence as a couple. They turned out beautifully –soft, romantic and happy. Leading up to the wedding, Catherine stayed in touch and walked us through every step. She was so helpful in creating the day of timeline, and I am forever grateful for the time she built in for the “special” moments – first look with my Dad, getting ready with my mom and bridesmaids, reading letters from each other, etc. Her advice made for a very smooth and easy day, and it was everything we dreamed of. A couple weeks before the wedding, she even sent a sweet care package! How amazing is she?! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, and she did a great job capturing all of our moments. She was super flexible with the weather and got creative with some amazing locations to take our pictures. Our photos (sneak peak, blog post, and final gallery) were all delivered right on time, and they blew us away. We have had a blast looking back and reminiscing about our special day. Catherine is simply wonderful, and I am elated that we chose her as our wedding photographer! I HIGHLY recommend Catherine with Catherine Rhodes Photography! More...

Catherine was phenomenal! She was so helpful during the planning stages of the wedding process when I had a million panicked questions, she was knowledgeable, and amazing to work with. On my wedding day she was there to fluff my dress, straighten my necklace, carried my water bottle, and even reminded me to drink it. Her calming presence was exactly what I needed and she was always there to reassure me that everything was running smoothly (even when I lost my groom). Most of all, after reaserching and meeting with what felt like ALL of the photographers in the St. Louis area in search of my wedding photographer, Catherine’s work is absolutely the best I have seen!

Catherine is one of the kindest, sweetest people I have ever met. Pair that with her insane talent and eye for details, and it’s no wonder she is so often referred in this industry. You could tell every step of the way she went above and beyond. So incredibly responsive to emails and texts from a stressed-out bride, and with this quality that puts everyone around her at ease. I can’t recommend Catherine enough. She captured images that we’re going to cherish the rest of our lives. Thank you, Catherine & team! More...
