Created Coastal Photography

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Created Coastal Photography. Kat and Mike were an exceptional pair to work with: professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful, warm, proactive, and expert at their craft. Arriving on-site for our first look, I was a bundle of nerves. Kat's gentle leadership in keeping tabs on me, my partner, our families, and wedding party in that moment and throughout the night was incredibly helpful. She and Mike captured a number of special moments throughout the day for my partner, myself, and our loved ones. They coordinated with our other vendors and stepped in as needed to keep the evening flowing smoothly. They went above and beyond. On top of that, the quality of their work speaks for itself. I will be the first to tell you that I've never felt photogenic. Despite that, I feel so beautiful beside my loved ones in the organic moments they captured, and the images reflect the love and magic we felt throughout the day. When thinking about the logistics of the wedding, working with Created Coastal Photography was without a doubt one of the best decisions we made. I'll add that as a queer couple, we felt respected, safe, and at ease throughout our entire experience with Kat and Mike. I hope to work with them again in the future!

We are beyond grateful to Kat and Mike! They were incredibly communicative, and when the event planner literally didn’t deliver, Kat and Mike stepped in, making sure everything was seamless. Their dedication to keeping things organized while capturing our moments was unbelievable, and they took the most beautiful photos we could have hoped for. They were genuinely caring and kind—Kat even helped calm my nerves with breathing exercises, which made such a difference. The quality of their photos is outstanding. Even though we’re a bit camera-shy, they made us feel comfortable and captured our true essence as a couple. What truly stands out is how you can tell they treat every customer as unique and special, bringing not only professionalism but also respect and a deep understanding of how important that day is—not just as ‘another event.’ I can’t imagine what a mess it could have been without them, and I’m already looking forward to having them at our next major life celebration. Highly recommended! Wedding details: October, 11,2024. Bristol Harbor Inn

There are a lot of photographers out there and if you’re paying for an expensive wedding, and the day goes by fast and all you’ll have left are the photos to capture the memories — it’s a big decision to make!! Having said that, I’m so glad that we found Kat and Mike. They were awesome right from the beginning. Their website was informative and after reaching out, they responded in a timely fashion. After deciding on moving forward with them, we set up an engagement photo shoot. We were indifferent about doing it but DO IT! It’s so worth it to not only get to know Kat and Mike, but to also shake off those “in front of camera” jitters. Before the shoot, we met with Kat and Mike to grab a bite and really just get to know them. They were confident and well prepared. We wanted to include a Vespa in our shoots and they were totally ok with that and gave us great direction to grab gorgeous shots. Afterwards they sent us a proposed timeline for our wedding day which was SUCH a help. Not only are you booking a photographer but since they’re truly experienced professionals, they were able to offer us insight into how the day should go that we just simply wouldn’t have known. Day of the wedding was great with Kat and Mike as well. We had a large bridal party and Kat and Mike facilitated the pictures very well. It was clear their communication between themselves was on point, and really helped to make the day run smoothly and on time! I’d have to say that the moment that really made me completely satisfied with our choice to go with Created Coastal Photography, was when during an overwhelming makeup and hair session, Kat noticed that was I overwhelmed. She swooped in, moved everyone out of the room quick and politely, dimmed the lights, opened the windows for fresh air. All without skipping a beat. It was exactly what I needed but couldn’t really say. True professional!! And someone you’d want in your corner on the ‘big day’. And of course, the end product …. We have only seen our ‘sneak peeks’ from our wedding day but they’re just stunning. Not just pictures, but truly artistic photos that we will treasure for the rest of time. We’ve received many compliments and you can’t help but look at the photos over and over again. Thank you Kat and Mike! Xo

Kat and Mike were incredible to work with - from our first engagement shoot through our wedding day, we felt at ease and comfortable taking direction from them. On top of being professional they are creative, fun, friendly, and bring a unique perspective that we were excited about. They even shared a preview album of our wedding day only three days later. We're thrilled with the quality and can't wait to see the rest. We would highly recommend Kat and Mike and will definitely be using them for future shoots!

Kat and Mike were truly exceptional! From the start, they were the ones that kept our wedding day moving along so smoothly, handling last-minute changes due to the weather with both guidance and calmness. They perfectly embraced the intimate vibe of our day and provided guidance whenever we needed it. They made us super comfortable and at ease throughout the whole process from our first chats to the actual wedding day. Their professionalism and attention to detail ensured that every moment, big and small, was beautifully captured. The photos are all stunning, our walls are covered with pictures already. Without hesitation, we would recommend this duo to anyone looking for fantastic photographers. They went above and beyond in every way possible.

Kat and Mike of Created Coastal Photography were outstanding for our daughter’s beachside wedding. They took care of every detail. Not only did Kat take fabulous photos, she also was the go to person for the bride. Kat was everywhere and made the day go smoothly. She was stylist, seamstress and bustle fixer. She even ran back to the condo for the extra shirt for the groom after a seagull mishap. Mike was unobtrusive and still got all the great shots. They are true professionals and we would highly recommend them for you photography needs.

No words to truly describe how amazing Kat & Mike are. They went above and beyond to guide us through the day - helping with our two year old, running around to grab us anything we needed while also taking breathtaking pictures . They truly are amazing and I recommend them 1000000%

Kat and Mike did such a phenomenal job capturing our dream engagement shoot. We really liked meeting Kat over FaceTime, which added a personal touch compared the the couple other consultations we had. We knew that Created Coastal would be the right fit after our first call and reviewing example portfolios. The look and feel of the photos is exactly what we were looking for with this shoot, and let me tell you, they absolutely did not disappoint. Being this was our first time ever taking professional photos, we didn’t know what to expect and wondered how they would be able to capture natural looking photos of us doing meaningful activities around the places we enjoy most. Kat provided plenty of thoughts and recommendations during initial calls and texts which got our imagination going, but never pressured us in one direction or the other which we appreciated! Kat and Mike were very easily to get along with which made the shoot fun, and that’s what made for some fantastic photos. They know how to get creative with their art and we couldn’t be happier with how the preview photos came out, which was way more than we expected. Can’t wait for the full album! Highly recommend hiring Kat and Mike for any type of shoot!

I cannot even put in words how grateful we were to have Kat and Mike as our photographers at our wedding. From my first FaceTime call with Kat, I instantly felt a connection. They are so down to earth, friendly, and so so so talented. We couldn’t be happier with our wedding sneak peaks! They are just the sweetest couple and really are gems. Don’t hesitate to book them for any of your photo needs! They captured the best moments and we just love them dearly!

We cannot say enough good things about Kat & Mike. Not only are Kat & Mike professional and talented but they are incredibly kind and lovely human beings. Our wedding day was obviously the best day ever but honestly - we keep saying that Kat & Mike MADE the wedding and they made us feel special all day and night long. They met with us multiple times prior to the wedding to go over the details and answer any questions. And then on the wedding they somehow memorized all family dynamics and made everyone feel so comfortable. They had anything that we needed for the night on them and they were like little wedding guides/gurus. They knew exactly when to sneak us away for private photos and when to snap photos of us and our loved ones without ever 'getting in the way'. Honestly - by the end of the night we wanted them 'in the way' because we just wanted to hang out with them. And the PHOTOS themselves - totally magical and dreamy and perfect. They got our sneak peeks to us so so quickly and it made the magic of the day last longer. You HAVE to book them for your wedding, event, or even a personal photo shoot. Seriously - look no further. Your expectations will be blown out of the water.

Kat & Mike should genuinely consider teaching a course in photography/videography/the wedding industry if they haven’t already. These two are the absolute best of the best. Not only did Kat & Mike communicate with me and my husband so efficiently leading up to our big day, but they took their time to REALLY understand us both as individuals and as a couple. They listened to our every question and took in all the details we shared while explaining to us their process and what to expect every step of the way. They literally went above and beyond to make our day perfect for us. My husband and I were blown away at how these two not only corralled both sides of our family so seamlessly for photos, but also stayed so incredibly on time in terms of following the flow of the day. Not one single beat was missed. Our guests were raving about them all night, and for good reason. They’re not just photographers, they’re yoga instructors (Kat, who helped me meditate before I walked down the aisle), parents (that really showed with how incredible they were with our two flower girls), couple goals (they work so well together), and your new best friends (we genuinely would hang out with them if we didn’t live out of state!!). Kat & Mike, thank you so much for coming into our lives. We could not be happier that we chose Created Coastal Photography for our big day. If you’re reading this and are a bride or groom to be, do yourself a favor and BOOK BOOK BOOK!!! You will not find better. I’m not exaggerating. <3

The best around - seriously! We used Created Coastal Photography for our elopement in August of 2024 and they went above and beyond every step of the way. From sending us some of their portfolio so we could narrow down our location (we picked Ft. Wetherill State Park), to finalizing details as our event got closer, to helping us walk through everything day-of, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Kat and Mike are both so kind, so fun, and PHENOMENAL photographers. They make such a great team, put us at ease, and we had no problem relaxing and being in the moment because of their guidance. And our photos are absolutely breathtaking!! We've gotten so many comments on our photography that we may make the drive to Rhode Island from Philly any time we need any type of photos in the future. Cannot comment enough on how wonderful they are. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I can't say enough good things about Mike and Kat. I feel truly so lucky to have had the opportunity to have them by our sides the day of our wedding- more than just photographers! It is clear that they are so passionate about what they do and they put so much thought into every detail- from planning to execution and follow up. I'll never forget the in-between times during our photos where Kat was here there and EVERYWHERE- bobby-pinning my moms hair, fixing my husbands boutonniere or organizing our bridesmaids florals and making everything look picture perfect. They're truly a one-of-a-kind duo. If you are looking for a wedding photographer that prioritizes comfort, fun and authenticity- you found them. I can't thank them enough, and I hope they are looking for new best friends because we are available and to be honest that is what i've been telling all of my family and friends so before this gets too embarrassing i'll just stop and say THANK YOU AGAIN!!! BOOK THESE LOVELY PEEPS!

Mike and Kat are amazing! They are somehow both incredible organized and easy going and fun to work with. They got involved early on to assist with timeline planning and I was so thankful for their expertise in making sure our day would be relaxing, smooth and enjoyable for both us and our guests. They had incredible attention to detail and captured so many sweet small moments that I didn't even notice! We are so lucky to have such beautiful photos to remember our day.

Highly recommend Kat & Mike for your wedding photos (or any photo shoot for that matter!) When we started wedding planning we knew that we wanted the right photographer for the day. After looking at several photographers and their portfolios we loved what we saw from Kat and Mike at Created Coastal. What we didn’t know was how much more they would contribute to the wedding. Our first in person meeting with them it was obvious that they knew what they were doing. They laid out a schedule of the entire day so we knew what to expect on such a hectic day. They also offered suggestions that we wouldn’t have thought of on our own. I don’t think we could have expected them to be at great as they were on our wedding day though…Kat is on top of literally everything, when leaving the house with the bride & bridesmaids… everything I was asking for was either already in the bag, in the limo or in her pocket. Mike left to meet with the guys at the venue to get some photos in early so we could spend more time with the guests at cocktail hour. He got several great photos of all the guys both individually and as a group. He was even able to sneak some of of the groom and mom before everyone arrived. Immediately following the ceremony they got the wedding party and families together for photos and made sure to keep everyone focused so we could get over to our guests. They had several fun ideas for the photos and were open to our ideas and requests in the moment. They were always available to take any photos that we requested throughout the reception too. Our bride and groom shoot was also perfect, they had a spot in mind and utilized the area perfectly with their vision for our photos. We’ve received some sneak peek photos and we couldn’t be happier. We cannot wait to see the rest of the photos and share them with everyone!!

Kat and Mike went above and beyond as photographers, making us feel comfortable leading up to our day and at our wedding. Their talent and style is perfection but they are also very special humans who met us where we were during our stressful planning. For someone who's not keen on the spotlight, they made me feel at ease and calm throughout a day filled with the attention. Kat was a family member whisperer, keeping everyone collected and organized. They are the best and I would 100% recommend them to anyone who has photography needs.

We are absolutely thrilled with Kat and Mike’s incredible work on our wedding day! From start to finish, the experience was beyond exceptional. From our first meeting, Kat and Mike made us feel comfortable and at ease. They took the time to understand our vision and provided valuable suggestions that enhanced our ideas. On the day of the wedding, they was professional, punctual, and seamlessly blended into the festivities, making everyone feel relaxed and natural in front of the camera. They also saved the day more than one time! The photos are nothing short of breathtaking. Every image is a testament to Kat and Mike’s talent and dedication. The way they captured the light, the love and our desired vibe was perfect. Moreover, the turnaround time for receiving our photos was impressively quick, and the presentation of the final product was elegant and thoughtful. Kat and Mike exceeded all our expectations, and we couldn't be happier with the results. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who is not only immensely talented but also a joy to work with, look no further than Created Coastal. We wholeheartedly recommend Kat and Mike to any couple looking couple looking for a great photography duo.

We had a great time with Kat and Mike! They were super helpful in the planning process and really took the time to understand what was important to us. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great experience and even better photos!

We literally cannot say enough great things about Kat & Mike. Not only are they incredible at their job, but they also ended up being so much more to us than just our wedding photographers. They became our trusted partners, source of comfort, and, best of all, our friends. Working with them felt like working with people we'd known forever, and their photos are simply amazing. Everyone we've shown them to is completely blown away, and so are we. The photos are everything we could've hoped for and more, and we feel so lucky to know and have worked with Kat & Mike.

I am writing this review as a warning to not work with Created Coastal Photography. You will see that people post reviews (upon Kat's request) after they receive their "sneak peak" photos, which is what we did in May 2024 after our wedding. However, it has now been over 7 months since our wedding and we have not received our final album or wedding video that we paid $5500 for (plus tip on wedding day). We originally signed a 6 hour contract with Kat and Mike a year prior to our wedding but a few months prior decided to add two more hours. When we got a new contract, Kat told us they made some “updates” and that we could sign the newest version. We did not realize that they had changed the contracted turn around time from 90 to 200 days without explicitly discussing this with us. We were very patient after the wedding, reaching out about once a month for an update, with Kat telling us they were working on it. Finally after several months, Kat revealed that there were software and personal issues delaying the final product. Again we were patient, reaching out every month or so for updates and asking when we should expect the final product. We were met with excuses but never any apologies or specific anticipated delivery date. After the 200 days went by with no estimated delivery date being provided to us (as was detailed in the contract to be provided in the case of delays), we asked for financial compensation for the breach in contract or the raw photos as we waited for the album. We have not heard from Kat and Mike for weeks despite us reaching out via text and email. We fear they have no intention of getting us our final product. Furthermore, I know other newlyweds who are in this situation who are still waiting for their albums as well. Potential clients beware.

Kat and Mike are the perfect team! My fiancé and I hired them for our wedding photos and we just had our engagement shoot. The pictures turned out AMAZING!!! They really captured our unique vibe and gave helpful cues for positioning. Together they enhanced our vision for our wedding and their talent was demonstrated throughout the whole process! HIGHLY recommend working with them - they are worth it!!

Seriously book them now! Every part of the process working with Kat was amazing. The communication, collaboration, making us all feel so comfortable, being so amazing with my toddler. She captured us perfectly! She was so timely with sending us our pictures and they were even better than I imagined. I will without a doubt book for our next pictures!! Thank you so much Kat!

If I could give 6 stars I would. I cannot say enough good things about Kat and Mike. They did both our engagement and wedding photos. Not only did the photos come out great, but they went above and beyond what I expected the day of. They made sure everyone was where they should be, helped pin boutonnieres, got shots I wouldn't have thought of, gave advice when needed, and so much more. They were key to helping make the whole day go smoothly. And are both so nice and easy to talk to. Highly recommend them!

Kat and Mike did an amazing job capturing our engagement. Right from the start when I first reached out, they were extremely responsive and easy to work with. They had great ideas for the engagement location, and even helped set up the area before we arrived. During the shoot they made us feel so comfortable, and had really creative ideas for the photos. We are absolutely in love with our photos and can’t thank them enough for capturing this very special moment for us. We can’t recommend them enough!

I was so excited to work with Kat and Mike to create our heirloom wedding photos. They will work with your vision and make it better than you ever could have imagined. They are incredibly creative, fun and made us feeling comfortable when we didn’t know how to pose!

From the beginning, Kat and Mike have been nothing short of amazing. They worked with my fiancé and I to get the exact feeling and look that we wanted out of our engagement shoot (even in the winter!). Kat is very down to earth and organized; having her to guide us through this experience has been a blessing. I would highly recommend Created Coastal to any of my friends or family for their special day.

They are truly amazing!! They are so kind helpful with every step! The overall editing style is amazing and they are both so talented!

Kat and Mike went above and beyond to make our engagement experience so special. From helping me to set everything up and to executing the day of the proposal. We experienced heavy winds and tough weather situations on the day of the proposal but Kat and Mike still delivered great quality pictures and experience. They are not afraid to get in the perfect location for a great picture! I would highly recommend them for any occasion you have!

Kat & Mike are great to work with. They are so fun and outgoing and fit in perfectly with our wedding. We were able to meet them prior at a local brewery and get to know them which was an awesome experience. It was nice to not be meeting them for the first time at the wedding. We got our sneak peek pictures back within a couple days! Can't wait to work with them again in the future!

We absolutely LOVED Kat and Mike, and are so glad we chose them! We fell in love with their style and portfolio and had the best time meeting them before we booked, so we knew it would be a fun day and we would feel super comfortable with them! Kat was incredible throughout the whole planning process - she was super organized, patient, and helped us put together everything we needed (including things we didn't know we needed) to make sure the day went smoothly. She was super flexible as we were putting together the timeline and detail-oriented to make sure everything we wanted was captured (she basically wrote our timeline, taking off so much stress from me). Kat and Mike were the absolute dream team day-of. They worked seamlessly with our videographer, DJ, and wedding coordinator to make sure everything (and everyone) was in place all day and that all of our special moments were captured. Kat even helped get a water stain out of my mother-in-law's dress before the ceremony, calming all panic before it could even happen!! They were exceptionally professional and fun, and we absolutely love the photos we have gotten!! Not to mention we got SO many sneak peak photos just days after our wedding, which made it so fun and easy to relive the best day! We are so thankful for them and encourage everyone to book them!!

We cannot say enough good things about Kat & Mike! We had an amazing experience with them from start to finish and I think I would trust Kat with my life at this point. They were incredibly professional and organized while also being super fun, which was the perfect mix of what we needed for our crazy wedding party. They kept us all in line for group photos and then let loose with us on the dance floor - my friends are still raving about how much fun they were and I've already had a friend ask for their contact info for their upcoming wedding! We were so impressed at the quick turnaround of our sneak peeks and our families were so blown away by their style and ability to capture the day so perfectly without feeling like we were posing for photos for hours. We cannot wait to get our full album! Overall we are so grateful for Kat & Mike - choosing them as our photography team was by far the best decision we could have made for our wedding day! 100000/10 recommend them for engagement shoots and wedding day photography - they are incredible!

Working with Kat and Mike was the best decision we made for our wedding day. They were so kind, sweet, and flexible from the first message we sent them requesting information about their services all the way till the day we received our photos back. The response time and professionalism was 10/10. We had regular check-ins with Kat leading up to the wedding where she helped us develop the best timeline that would accommodate all the photos that were a priority for us to get. They went above and beyond to make sure our photos were perfect even to the point of meeting up in person at the venue a few months prior to the wedding so that we could know exactly where our photos would take place. The day of the wedding Mike and Kat captured all the love and happiness of the day and it all reflects on the photos that look absolutely magical. Mike and Kat were the most perfect team capturing every part of the wedding in photos. Kat spent most of the day with me and it felt like walking around with a friend telling me how to pose and hyping me up. Kat fixed my dress and touched up my hair to make sure I felt and looked beautiful. I could go on all day talking about the amazing people both Kat and Mike are! I am so glad to have found them and I hope to be able to continue working with them in the future for more family photos and every special moment in our lives. - The Reids

Kat and mike were absolutely incredible from start to finish on our wedding day this past Sunday. The second I met them I instantly felt at ease and they became fast friends. Kat went above and beyond to help me with all of the little details during all of the last minute chaos while still managing to get beautiful photos. Their skill and experience was obvious throughout the whole day and I am already blown away by our sneak peak photos. On top of that, their prompt communication throughout the whole process was a huge plus. I could not have asked for better photographers for our dream day. Thank you so so much kat and mike!!!!! You guys rock.

Kat and Mike were so easy to work with and made being in front of the camera so easy for us (as it was our first time). They really go above and beyond in getting to know you before hand and not rushing the photography experience at all! If you want a stress free day with a totally cool photography duo, then I highly recommend Kat and Mike! They also put together one of my most favorite little insta reels with a video of some of the moments from the day. Such a surprise and treat!!

Created Coastal Photography exceeded our expectations in every way imaginable. From meticulous planning to thoughtful reminders about essential details, Kat and Mike made sure we felt at ease throughout the entire process. Their extraordinary talent behind the lens immortalized moments that will forever hold a special place in our hearts. These photos and videos are more than mere images; they are cherished, irreplaceable memories that we will treasure for a lifetime!

From the moment I spoke to Kat on the phone we instantly connected. Kat and Mike go above and beyond, they truly care about their craft and their clients. Our engagement shoot was amazing and they made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Kat was available for questions throughout the process and also helped me with the timeline and other wedding details. On the wedding day they kept us on track and our entire wedding party loved them. I received my sneak peek photos 3 days after the wedding and they are stunning. Truly capturing the magic of the day. I’m so happy that I chose Kat and Mike to be part of our big day!

My husband and I found Kat and Mike via the Knot! We then thoroughly reviewed their website, as well as their Instagram, and decided their photography style matched what we were looking for. They exceeded all our expectations :) We decided early on that we wanted vendors that were easy to get along with as we would be spending a lot of time with them on a very important day. Kat and Mike were just that! Their laid back attitudes were just what we wanted and needed on our big day. I felt like their goal was not only to snap great photos, it was also to execute the day exactly the way we pictured it. Not to mention they also meshed so well with all our friends and family. The pictures we received for our engagement shoot, as well as the sneak peak photos we already received for our wedding are truly beautiful. I would definitely recommend them to any bride and groom getting married.

godsend Kat and Mike are!! Trying to plan a surprise engagement in a state you’ve never been to is nearly impossible- but from our first call with Kat, we knew we had nothing to worry about!! Not only did she find the perfect spot, she was in EVERY detail making sure the execution was perfect. They went so far as to move dog poop out of the way for us and Kat even brought a white dress what magically fit my bestie perfectly for the photos!!! They truly love their craft and they are TOO good at it. They stayed later than we paid for and we woke up to a full folder of sneak peaks. I know it sounds like I got paid to write this, but I swear I didn’t!!! If you have a chance to get on their schedule, you HAVE TO!!!!! Kat and Mike- thank you for everything you did to make my besties day special 💖

Kat & Mike were so kind throughout the whole process and we couldn’t have made a better decision! They kept us informed and on timeline the whole time and because we had them got a short period of time they took advantage and captured every moment they could. They definitely made our experience is easier and enjoyable.

Kat and Mike are everything you could ever want from a wedding photographer, and way more! They are both such a huge part of your day, in the best way possible. Kat seamlessly takes care of all of the tiny things that come up on your wedding day. Not to mention, we are absolutely in love with our photos. We honestly cannot recommend these two enough!

I cannot say enough good things about Kat and Mike! Created Coastal was the first team we reached out to for quotes for our wedding and as soon as we met Kat and Mike there was no need for us to look any further. We recently had our engagement shoot and not only did the photos come out INCREDIBLE but we also had so much fun spending the day with them! We were a bit nervous going into our shoot because my fiancé and I are camera shy, but they made us feel totally comfortable. We're so, so grateful we found them and can't wait to see them again on our wedding day in September!!

We had the pleasure of working with Kat and Mike for our wedding last November. I searched all over social media and the internet for a wedding photographer that would fit us. When I found Created Coastal on instagram, I fell in love with their aesthetic and immediately knew they would be right for us. My husband and I felt at total ease being photographed throughout our special day. We couldn’t have asked for better photographers! They went above and beyond, Kat even re-curled my hair at the last minute. Our friends and family kept commenting about how incredible and fun our photographers were too! We now have a gorgeous collection of photos that captured our day perfectly. Don’t hesitate to book with Kat and Mike! This is your sign — book Created Coastal for your wedding or next photoshoot!

Kat and Mike were unbelievable! Our pictures are everything we hoped for and more. They are professionals, on time, and responsive. Their laid back style helped us to relax and just enjoy the day. When a helping hand was needed Kat bustle my dress, curled and pinned my hair back. Below are some of our glamor shots. They also took so many fun candid shots that really captured the day. Highly recommend!

Kat and Mike are exceptional to work with! They are extremely sociable, professional and talented. My husband and I hired them to shoot our wedding reception - we eloped in Northern Ireland and had a small reception a month later to celebrate with friends and family. Kat and Mike were very communicative throughout the entire process. We met for drinks a couple of months before the reception to go over the details and logistics. We surprised our guests with a short wedding ceremony at the beginning of our reception, and Kat and Mike captured the moment perfectly! They stayed through the rest of the party, and were so much fun. Several of our guests commented on how much they loved Kat and Mike! Following the party they provided a large sneak peak gallery within a couple of days, and proceeded to keep us updated via their instagram story of their editing list. Their transparency is greatly appreciated! Their work speaks for itself. They are able to capture raw emotion in beautifully framed shots. We love their natural editing style. I feel transported back to that magical night every time I look through the pictures! We actually are in the process of planning another shoot with them and are so excited to see how our future pictures turn out!

Kat and Mike are top tier photographers. They both have an amazing eye for photography. They got some awesome candid shots of all our guests that are priceless, and awesome to look back at. We felt so comfortable with them during our wedding. They really play off your energy really well!

Working with Kat and Mike was a pleasure from the start. After we contacted them, they scheduled a phone call to get a sense of who we are and what we were looking for in wedding photographers. Before the wedding itself, we got together at a bar to have a casual conversation and get to know more about each other, which made it more comfortable having them as a part of our wedding. On our wedding day itself, they were great about staying in contact with us and communicating what was happening and when. They arrived in the bridal suite on time to take some getting ready photos and detail shots. The two of them divided and conquered in this environment and were able to get all the photos needed before we started the first look and family photos in a short time frame. We then went to Roger Williams Park to take photos before the wedding. They were great in this environment, despite several other photo shoots happening there and were great at finding the right spots to take our photos amongst all the activity--it looks like we are the only ones there! Once we got to the venue, they were able to take some additional photos of us, the couple, before the ceremony started and then take wonderful photos of the ceremony, start of the reception, and a few more group shots. We hired them for their elopement/small wedding package, which is only four hours, but they weren't watching the clock and spent the time with us to make sure we had all the photos we wanted. Whenever something needed to be rescheduled, like our initial phone call, they reached out in a timely fashion and made it clear that they would be flexible if we couldn't accomodate a new time. After working with them, it's obvious that Kat and Mike love what they do and want you to have a great time while getting great photos. They know how to bring out sweet moments through impromptu "games" that create more candid looking photos, as well as capturing formal portraits. They had great ideas for our venue, a vintage bowling alley, as well as incorporating ideas we had for our photos. We would definitely recommend them.

If there's one vendor that stood out the most for our wedding, it was Kat and Mike. From their professionalism, to their patience, to their eye for the perfect shot, they are just simply amazing. Our sneak peek was delivered so quickly, and I can't stop looking at them. We will definitely be using them for all of our photo needs going forward!

Wow is the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about my brother and my new sister’s wedding. I being the younger protective sister, wanted to make sure everything went perfect for them on their special day. I have been in the wedding industry for almost 12 years so I have seen my share of photographers. Kat and Mike are truly top notch, I mean seriously, TOP NOTCH. They both went absolutely above and beyond to make their day perfect. They showed up the perfect amount of early, with the biggest smiles ready to jump right in. Kat and Mike were professional, quick (a huge important factor to keeping things on time), and perfectly captured the raw emotions of the day. They provided sneak peaks within 48 hours, and not just 5 photos, like 200?!! The photos are incredible. Most dream about their wedding day for many many years and looking at the photos are actually reliving the dream. I am so impressed with Created Coastal Photography, I highly recommend anyone looking for a photographer to reach out to Kat and Mike. They will provide the most amazing images of one of the most important days of your life. Kat and Mike, thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so amazing for my brother and sister-in-law. For curling her hair when you noticed it needed a retouch, for calming the nerves before the big moments, and making something that can be awkward look and feel so natural. We are eternally grateful.

I don’t have enough good things to say about Kat and Mike. I hired Created Coastal for my engagement photos and had the best experience! As someone who hates being photographed, I was very nervous for my session. Kat and Mike made the whole thing such a fun experience! They made me feel comfortable and gave helpful direction. The pictures I got as a result are STUNNING. The photos are a professional quality and look like a fairy tale. My only complaint is they made it impossible to pick just one photo for my save the dates! :) I highly recommend Created Coastal for your photographer!
