Embrace by Kara

We love our wedding photos! Kara was helpful from the very beginning. She answered all our questions and even helped us come up with ideas like our ceremony bubble exit!

Kara is the best ever!!! She is amazing at what she does. I am in love with all of my photos. She is very professional and great at customer service. You will not go wrong by picking her for your pictures.

Finding a photographer was one of the hardest things for us. To balance budget with finding a style that you like, you look through a lot of photos! We are so happy that we went with Kara! She is so spunky and creative, and she will keep you laughing the whole time! Our engagement shoot with her was wonderful, and her eye for detail is truly evident in the photos she takes. People were drooling over the photos she took and I couldn't wait to get to our big day just to see what other amazing photos she would capture! Kara was super understanding that my husbands parents had recently divorced and helped make everyone feel like they were special. She knows just the right things to say to get even the least flexible people posed just right, and always seemed to be in the right place at the right time to get all the important shots. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to get back my wedding photos! She sent us a sneak peak, and she honestly took one of my favorite photos ever!!!! If I was a little less sane, I would probably turn it into a wall sized mural in my house! She is absolutely amazing!

Kara was incredible in every way. From the moment my husband and I met with her we felt very comfortable and she listened to our every word. I was kind of a control-freak when it came to our wedding, but she gladly handled every request I had. She and her second photographer exceeded my expectations on every level with our photos and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer that takes the headache out organizing the family photos, catches every detail, and genuinely loves what she does. You can cross photography off of your list very quickly with Kara and you wont regret it!

I just love the way Kara, from the first contact, connected with me in a personal way. She took the time to get to know me so she would know my style and how I wanted things to be on our wedding day. I love every picture she snapped that day and I wish I had more occasions she could capture with her lens!!!

Kara was the BEST wedding photographer we could have asked for!!! She was on time, professional and detailed. She captured our special day perfectly and all the details of our wedding. She has a great personality and demeanor. Kara was very easy going and I didn't have to ask her for anything as she was going around photographing everything that was important to us. She never took over our wedding but allowed us to enjoy it and did some great candid shots. Pictures were so natural and just lovely. She has a great eye for pictures and some really cool ideas. I am SOOO glad I found her! Oh, and her proofs came to us in no time. Her work is just like her, AMAZING!!

Kara was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning at our engagement shoot all the way through to the end of our wedding day she was there ready to answer any questions we had. She's super professional but at the same time knows exactly what to do or say to loosen you up and make you laugh! She has super awesome tricks (turtle) that help to make your pictures look perfect. My husband and I have fallen in love with every single photo she has taken and 100% recommend her.

Kara was amazing! We planned a couple session in NYC and she made the whole process so easy! She is great at posing and making us comfortable in front of the camera! She'll make sure everything stays on schedule! Rob and I highly suggest using Kara! She has your back and leaves you with gorgeous images!

We had Kara shoot our family event and couldn’t be happier with our pictures. We had many out of town guests and Kara was able to keep the flow going to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and the games we had planned. She was able to catch all of the events and maintain professionalism and focus. We would love to invite Kara to be our photographer again for future family gatherings!

Made me feel incredibly comfortable infront of the camera during our family session. Kara is wonderful at guiding you through poses that are natural and relaxed. Such a great experience!

Kara is absolutely amazing to work with. She gets the job done quickly and easily. We had quite a chaotic day, and Kara went with the flow! She captured some amazing photos of the children in our wedding, she paid attention to the areas I wanted hidden in photos, and most importantly she was able to show the true emotions of the day. I would hire her again in a second. I'm so impressed by the reasonable pricing. She is so creative, and was able to get us to a variety of locations even in the short span of a few hours. She also provided us with a wedding day timeline and that was extremely helpful for me planning around that. She is wonderful.

Kara single handedly saved our wedding day! I was a very nervous destination bride, planning a wedding in 6 weeks, 4 states away. When I decided to reach out to Kara after reading an online review, it was the best decision I made in our planning process. Kara was able to make arrangements over the phone and through Facebook and was INCREDIBLY responsive. When I found myself stressed and unable to find the vendors I needed, Kara made wonderful suggestions and truly helped it all come together. Not to mention, I was blown away when I saw our photos! These are memories to last the rest of your life, and I am so glad we chose Kara to capture them.

Kara shared in our vision and with only a few conversations, she exceeded all expectations. I was a very reluctant bride , with little to no knowledge of what to expect during the whole process. Kara reassured me and helped in all the ways she could. The best part was when I thought she had left, but she actually was setting up to catch the sunset shots I really wanted and ended up capturing the most beautiful photo any of us could have imagined. If you are on the fence of whether or not to use Kara, believe me when I say you will not be disappointed. She is extremely professional, personable, and truly puts herself in the moment, laughs with you and even cries in the genuinity of the moment. Thank you Kara for making our dreams come true and making our memories everlasting.

Kara was attentive and professional. She was incredibly sweet.

Kara was amazing would be an understatement. For our engagement pictures she was awesome. She made sure we had all types of shots in all types of poses. If you don't know what to do, like us, she was perfect cause she literally told you how to stand. Our engagement pictures were great and her lighting techniques made them even better. For our wedding she was so helpful and on top of all the special pictures we needed to remember the special day. Her picture quality is great and we recommend her to everyone.

Kara did our holiday party photos and they were amazing! She really captured emotion in her photos and they were not just "staged" photos. She was super nice and fun!!!

Kara was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! She was relaxed yet in charge to get what we needed. She was fun to be around. All of our guests LOVED her. annnddddddd THEN the photos came back! I am so impressed by all of our memories and SO SO SO thankful that we went with Kara! Look no further, she should be your photographer of choice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a pleasure working with Kara Pearl. She has a great personality and takes time to be personable as well as professionalism. She is highly qualified, but what made us rate her so high is the relationship and trust before the first picture was even taken. She took the time to teach, ask great questions and deal with concerns proactively.

I have been blown away by my engagement and wedding pictures. We met before to go over timelines and specific shots that we wanted. Responsive to my emails and phone calls and was friendly and professional. She was helpful in corralling family and bridal party for pictures at the wedding and was always mindful of good lighting, scenery and poses. Overall great experience, and would definitely recommend.

Kara was absolutely AMAZING! My husband and I got married at the beginning of November and she helped make our day perfect!!! We are beyond thrilled with our choice :) Kara was so easy to work with and made us feel really comfortable. She worked closely with our venue coordinator to make sure we got the few "special" pictures we really wanted and worked well with our big family. Not only was Kara extremely easy to work with the day-of our wedding, but she was also extremely responsive throughout the planning process! We are thrilled with our photos and cannot wait for more! We cannot say THANK YOU enough!

Kara is THE BEST EVER! Very knowledgable, extremely helpful, and professional. The photos turned out GREAT! Thanks Kara!!!
