My main goal is to be able to offer low cost photography to people who want good quality pictures, but can't afford the exorbant prices of other professional photographers.

Please go to the Information/Prices section to see the packages I offer.

I have loved taking pictures for many years. It was a hobby up until 6 years ago when my friends started asking me to take pictures at their daughter's Quincianero (Sweet 15) parties. I was also asked to do a small wedding and a couple of events.

I enjoyed it so much, that I decided to get serious about it and make it more than a hobby. I am currently taking classes at the local community college and learning more each day.

I am married to a wonderful man for the past 22 years, who is becoming my apprentice, (he actually took this picture of me), and I have the two most wonderful and handsome sons. I am also a Pastor, which is my first priority, before photography. So far, I have been able to juggle both. Amen!

The name CastleRivers derives from my married name (Castillo) which translated to English means "Castle" and my maiden name (Rios) which translated to English means "Rivers."
