TESTIMONIALS

Riley & Mello


There truly aren’t enough words to describe how much Codi means to us—not just as a photographer, but as someone who has been woven into the fabric of our story.


She’s been behind the lens for some of the most important moments of our lives—from our first couples session, to our family portraits, to the most intimate and emotional night of our beach elopement, to a fun and empowering bridal boudoir shoot, and then flying all the way to Mexico to capture our full wedding celebration. She’s been there for all of it. And what she’s given us? It’s more than photos. It’s memories frozen in time, with every detail, emotion, and nuance preserved exactly as it felt. Not to mention, acted as my planner & wedding therapist all in one (our pre-wedding meetings saved me—seriously!!!)


Looking through our galleries, we always say the same thing: we would have nothing but the memories if not for her. The tears, the giggles the tiny glances no one else saw—she caught all of it, effortlessly. She has an unmatched ability to make you feel completely at ease and then somehow deliver work that is not only beautiful, but deeply true to who you are.


Her photos are the only tangible thing we have to remember the best days of our lives, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to do it so perfectly. She is more than our photographer. She’s our storyteller, our hype girl, and one of the most consistent and calming presences in our journey.


Codi, thank you for giving us the greatest gift; and more than that—your friendship. We’ll never stop coming back to you.

From the very beginning, Codi was such a steady, reassuring presence during our destination wedding trip. Always communicating clearly, checking in, and helping me feel supported throughout the entire destination wedding planning process. She was more than a photographer; she was a thoughtful sounding board and someone I genuinely trusted every step of the way.


We got married in Cinque Terre, Italy, a location Codi had never photographed before. She put so much effort into planning out locations (we bonded over how much time we spend on Google Earth lol) . She went out of her way to scout locations during her trip and came prepared with intention and creativity, even when the weather forced us to be flexible. No matter what, she stayed calm, positive, and determined and we still captured all the moments we planned. She also brought her daughter along on the trip who took wonderful camcorder videos of our day (and was my overall hype girlie). We didn't have our videographer for my first look with my family and the camcorder footage that she took from that moment I'll cherish forever.


What truly sets Codi apart is how deeply she cares about the full experience from the initial inquiry to the actual wedding day. My family and friends absolutely adored her, and she felt like a natural, joyful part of our day. Looking back, I’m so grateful for her heart, her dedication, and the beautiful memories she captured throughout our entire trip.


I've also done a styled shoot hosted by Codi and a mentorship call with her. If you're a photographer I cannot recommend utilizing her as a mentor enough! She is so so thoughtful with her advice and recommendations.


Thank you Codi for everything you've done for me personally and professionally! Can't wait to see where your art takes you next!

Codi is such a talented and humble photographer to work with! We are in absolute awe and appreciation for her craft. Our engagement shoot photos leave us speechless!!! OBSESSED. Codi went above and beyond and completely over delivered with this gallery of my dreams, the photos look straight out of a magazine and more importantly, we both felt so comfortable shooting under her guidance.


The emotions felt through her lens is everything we asked for and MORE! So whimsical, playful, romantic & editorial! Codi- you are a creative genius!


Thank you SO MUCH for giving us a forever memory of this perfect day!

My husband and I did a couples shoot with Codi and the session was an absolute DREAM. She was so much fun to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of her lens. I was so impressed by all the prep work Codi did before our shoot! She read our story and planned the most beautifully creative storytelling shots that we will cherish always. I’ve always loved candid, in the moment, blurry photos that feel so playful and full of life. I expressed this to Codi before our shoot - and she exceeded my expectations! The photos from our shoot look like they walked straight out of my Pinterest board. We couldn’t believe how good our photos looked when she sent them, and now they decorate the walls of our home. Codi has such a gift. 10/10 recommend!

"Codi was very professional, personable, and FUN from the moment she took me on as a client. I went to her for my maternity photos because she has such a unique style and eye that I haven't yet encountered with other photographers on the Space Coast. She was extremely responsive, timely, and open to the vision I had for my pictures. The photoshoot was an absolute blast and she stayed longer than expected to get all the shots she had planned for us. She also wasn't afraid to get completely covered in sand/ocean water to get all the shots. My husband isn't a fan of photoshoots, and she put him at ease and made him as comfortable as he could be in front of a camera. We will be back again, and again for more!"

"Codi was INCREDIBLE to work with. Her posing is so natural, comfortable, and creative. My partner and I have had the honor of being photographed by her and photographing alongside her! She is such an amazing creative and an even better person. Book EVERYTHING!! You won’t regret it!"

"I met Codi by winning a giveaway almost 2 years ago now, and she easily became not only one of my favorite human beings but photographers to work with. She’s really been alongside our journey through life and marriage the last few years. Not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera (especially when you’re dealing with children) but Codi really makes each session we have incredibly personable. She really takes the time to get to know her clients and puts in a lot of time and thought into what styles will accommodate each person, couple or family. We always feel like we’re just getting our photos done by a family or friend and for us that’s most important. But beyond her being the best human ever, she also takes spectacular pictures – and she’s the kind of photographer that will get down and dirty with you during a shoot to get that perfect picture. She has definitely pushed us out of our comfort zones at times, but we never regret it because we always end up having so much fun and our pictures turn out amazing. If you want a fun and authentic experience when getting your pictures taken, I would highly recommend booking a session with Codi."

"If you're reading this...look no further! I apologize for the long ramble ahead but the details will help you decide quicker! My husband and I have had three wonderful photography sessions with Codi! It all started when she offered "mini" sessions for the holidays at a local tree farm. I was amazed author quick she was able to prepare the beautiful photos for us. I was so satisfied that I did not hesitate to book another session with her six months later. Codi was doing travel sessions and she especially caught my eye when she announced she'd be at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. I was not able to make it until one day after she would've initially left, but she is so wonderful that she agreed to extend her trip to accommodate us.

"This was a special session for my husband and I as he was deploying days after the trip, so Codi made sure she got the photos ready before he left, which meant everything to us as we got to view them together. The final product was amazing and more than what we expected. Our most recent session was three months ago. Codi and her sweet daughter accompanied us to Mount Rainier National Park, where they witnessed my husband and I renew our 10 year vow renewal. We woke up at 3am to start the journey, hiked in the snow and took breathtaking photos that I'll forever treasure. Codi ensured the logistics were nailed down before our big day came. I am sad she moved across the country but it does not mean our sessions with her are over because we need a beach session to add to our collection! Book with Codi!!"

"Codi is such an amazing photographer and person to work with! From the very beginning she made the whole process fun, comfortable and laid back. There was no shortage of laughter during our session! And the way she was able to capture the emotion and connection between my partner and I in the photos is truly beautiful."

"Hiring Codi V Photography was one of THE BEST things I could have done while planning my “pandemic elopement!” She was willing to come on a weekend-long adventure, across the state, to shoot our entire experience. Pictures started at 6am and continued all day until we all went to bed around 2am. I couldn’t be more grateful that we have almost 24-hours of beautiful images to cherish. She has such an artistic eye and has a way of directing you to show your most beautiful features. For me, someone who can feel awkward when “posing,” this is so helpful. She makes you feel incredibly comfortable in your own skin and can really capture the moments where you and your partner are just being “naturally you.” People are constantly commenting when they see our wedding photos that they look like they’re “straight out of a magazine.” Hire Codi for any photoshoot and you will not regret it. 100/10, highly recommend!"

“Codi is an absolute dream photographer to work with. She is very talented and from the moment we met I felt like I have known her for years. She made our whole experience so special during our elopement. She has this beautiful energy about her and you can’t help but smile when she’s around. 


She will make you very comfortable in front of the camera and she will create artwork for you to treasure FOREVER. She suggested us some amazing poses and isn’t afraid of uncomfortable angles to capture moments that take your breath away. 


We did another winter themed photoshoot with her and it blew our mind. We were deeply saddened when Codi moved to Florida because we were losing our family photographer. But we’re also extremely happy at the same time that we now have another fun location to go shoot at. 


If you’re looking for a photographer with an eye for the perfect picture & a passion to help your memories last a LIFETIME, give her a call!”

"Codi was so fun to work with. It isn't easy to get my husband to relax but our shoot with Codi was so fun and creative. She had us bring our favorite date night food and it felt giddy- like a first date. Highly, highly recommend booking!"
