Cats Madrigal Photography

Cats and I met through a common friend and she photographed the Baptism of our two youngest children.

I had no idea she would be so excited and genuinely interested in capturing the Navy Custom of Baptizing children. She did her research on the tradition so that she knew exactly not only what elements were important to focus on but she seemed to know where to be for the next shot.

All of the guests noted how polite she was and also mentioned that she gave 100 of her attention to the event.

She managed to give us some real gems, the very next day! The final USB key was available in a very timely manner as well.

Cats is eager to please and is not only passionate about this art but also the people that make the moments happen.

It was such a pleasure working with Cats! Even though there was a little bit of a rush on the project, she still delivered with such a high quality. Very professional, detailed and passionate about what she does. She could be very technical at times - she would tell you how you should pose for the shot, where to place your hand, where to look and favor - but just like a director in a theatre/film she knows exactly what's aesthically pleasing to the eye. She orchestrates every single item to come up with a fine composition! She solicits collaborative inputs from us and all the more I felt so much respect for her craft. Truly a remarkable person and a talented artist! Thank you for taking our very first family portrait, TeCats!😊

It was a real treat working with Cats on my portrait and my first ever product shoot! With a great eye and relentlessly detailed, she's an absolute pro. Fair, reasonable pricing, but because she does go the extra mile, she's also worth every penny. Best part is that even tho it wasn't my thing and im very self-conscious, she made me feel comfortable and at ease during the shoot, that I actually had fun doing it! Thanks again, Cats!

We utilized Cats as our wedding photographer for both our ceremony and reception. She did a fabulous job and was extremely professional and honest along the entire process. Unlike other photographers I have hired for previous milestone events in my past, she not only captured our event with family photos and such, but she brought a level of creativity and artistry which I had yet to witness with any other photographer. Each step post event was handled very professionally, and she accommodated our difficult situation of both me and my wife both living outside of Canada beautifully. From the computer viewing of the proofs, and choosing album covers, to our final meet to receive the album, she went above and beyond what could be expected from any other professional. I was most appreciative of Cats having a photo framed as a Christmas gift, packing it, carrying it in her luggage to Europe, and mailing it locally as a surprise gift for my new bride. Who else would do that?

We received the final albums this past week, and we couldn't have been more overwhelmed. She delivered much more than we would ever have anticipated. The album is beautiful as well as the photo montage she created. Her photos captured the beauty of my wife and the ceremony. However she also captured the emotions of all the participants and guests. She did a remarkable job. You will not go wrong if you have Cats help you capture your event. We will most definitely use her for our next big event if at all possible.

Our experience with Cathy doing our engagement photos was nothing short of excellent. We met with several photographers and we instantly bonded with Cathy. While doing our engagement photos she incorporated so much of our personality that we immediately agreed to have her do our wedding photos as well. On the day of our wedding she was prepared and professional while still keeping it fun for everyone. Her ability to capture the magic of the day is remarkable as we can still look at the pictures and relive the moments and emotions of each picture. Through the entire process we got amazing photos with an excellent photographer and we made a new friend. She very much put us at ease with each photo and always allowed us to be who we are. Thank you Cat and company for the excellent work, we would refer you for any occasion. Love The Doherty's
