Amelya Jayne Photography, LLC

Kathleen and her assistant were great! They were timely, enthusiastic, courteous and took some awesome photos! There were candid ones, documentary ones, posed ones... the list goes on. And she's just so darn friendly and easy to talk to too. I couldn't be happier. (Especially after we first went with someone else and it felt like we were being given a cookie cutter experience with no interest in our personal needs.) Anyways, in short, she's awesome!

Hey bride(or groom)-to-be!! Are you frantically searching through tons of wedding photographers, trying to find a talented photographer who can capture all candid fun of your big day without breaking you and your partner's bank? Well the search is over! My partner and I hired Kathleen for our wedding and engagement and are so thrilled we did (we have only had our engagement photos done so far, and our wedding is in September 2018)! Kathleen is great to work with. Very friendly and chatty or directive if she needs to be, she will put you at ease in front of the camera. She likes to take the time to get to know you and your SO's story and personalities. You can easily tell this looking through her portfolio. I remember coming across her website and looking at all photos - I felt like I personally knew every single couple she captured since she did such a great job capturing all their emotion and personalities! Kathleen's style seems to really focus on capturing emotion and a photo-journalistic feel rather than solely staged and posed photos, but she can certainly do both very well! This is exactly what my partner and I were looking for in a wedding photographer as we both really love having fun and enjoying the moment, but still needed someone who could direct us to be sexy and flirty. She really has tons of options for any budget and will work with you to find what fits your needs. My partner and I really enjoyed being able to hire her daughter as our second shooter without going over our photography budget. Kathleen even has options to get your wedding photos back quickly without the normal 6-10 week lead time if you don't care so much about photo edits. She's very easy to reach and responsive - super for a bride who has a lot of questions like me! We went with her 7 hour package and hired her daughter for our second shooter. Highly recommended!! You won't regret hiring Amelya Jayne Photography to capture your big day!

Kathleen was a blast to work with at my wedding. She was super helpful figuring out a timeline for pictures and gathering ideas of what our dream wedding pictures were. She even showed up to our venue the day before to gather ideas for great spots to use. She is super fun and energetic which is so helpful. She made me feel very comfortable during the whole wedding and everyone there loved her energy. The pictures she took were beautiful and she was able to capture the sunset perfectly. Would highly recommend her for your wedding photographer!

Kathleen was such a fun person to work with! We met her for engagement pictures a couple months from our wedding, and she really made us feel at ease in front of a camera. Prior to the wedding she made sure that she had a list of the pictures that we wanted. Kath showed up on her own to our rehearsal to touch base with us and make sure she was familiar with the space. Throughout the entire wedding day she was adaptable, fun, and energetic. It seemed like every time I turned around, she was capturing candid moments from the wedding that I'm excited to look at for the rest of my life. We were really happy to work with her!
