Kate Diamond Photography

Kate saved the day hours before our engagement photo session when our booked photographer backed out. She came as a personal recommendation from a close friend and turned a disaster into a godsend. We thanked our lucky stars that fate stepped in to bring Kate into our wedding. Kate is prompt, prepared, talented, and a calming presence. My husband and I spent so much of our special day enjoying ourselves and Kate & her team captured all of our moments. We will be forever grateful that we have AMAZING photos to remember our special day with. Kate will be the first person we reach out to for our future photo needs & we have no doubt she will continue to bless us with beautiful family memories.

Hiring Katelynn and her team for capturing our wedding day was hands down the best decision we made during our wedding planning process! The attention to detail both during the photo taking process and her editing style are outstanding, and we are still in awe at all of the amazing photos she captured. She will make sure there isn't a single hair out of place. Katelynn was great at communicating with us as well, she always answered our questions in a timely manner and made sure that we stayed on schedule during such a busy day. Thank you again to Katelynn and team for capturing a day that we will truly never forget!

Kate and her team were amazing to work with from start to finish. Highly recommend doing an engagement shoot so that you can get comfortable with being posed and photographed. We went with the package that gave us access to ALL of our wedding photos and we are soooo glad we did, because it would be impossible to choose. There are so many beautiful photos. We got our collection back way quicker than expected, too! I can’t wait to use Kate and her team for our photos as we continue to grow our family ❤️

We recently got married in October and hired Katelynn to do our engagement and wedding photos. I can’t tell you enough how amazing she is! From the start of our engagement photos all the way through our wedding photos, Katelynn made us feel so comfortable and took the most amazing pictures that captured us perfectly. Katelynn is so professional and prompt and made it super easy to not worry! She made sure to focus on what WE wanted and really advocated for us. Our pictures are beautiful and captured our most favorite memory of all! Also have to mention, her second photographer for our wedding day, Jess is also amazing! Her and Katelynn work so well together and make an awesome team! We can't wait to have Katelynn capture the next chapter of our lives! :)

Friendly, fun and very talented. Couldn’t be happier with the quality of our engagement pics. We will be using the pictures on our engagement pics. You’re amazing Kate, thank you so much!!

The best decision I made was having Kate as our wedding photographer! I cannot imagine our special day without her. From the moment I inquired back in August of 2020, to our wedding day October 2021, Kate was with us every step of the way. She was amazing at communicating, answering my (many) questions, and making us feel so comfortable in front of the camera! Throughout this process, she became a great friend as well. On our wedding day, she made sure we stayed on track with timing, and made it a priority to ensure my husband and I were taken care of. Her positive energy, flexibility, and expertise made the day so much fun and so memorable. Kate perfectly captured our love--her photographs are of the highest quality and have unique touches that represent each of her clients. We are so very thankful that we had Kate be apart of our wedding day. She went above and beyond to make our day everything and more!

We were so lucky to have Katelynn as our photographer! She was truly amazing to work with! We found Katelynn through a friend who had previously booked her for her wedding. Wedding photos were really important to me and I wanted memories that we could cherish for the rest of our lives. After seeing her work, we new that we wanted her to capture our wedding day! She made coordinating locations and poses stress free. We had a large bridal party and were a little worried about pictures being chaotic, but Katelynn was so patient with everyone and made it look like a breeze! Her kindness radiated all day and our families could not say enough good things about her. She was so great at making us feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera! She also made my sunset and veil photo dreams come true with her amazing photography skills! We are so in love with every picture that she took! She captured the best memories for us and we can’t recommend her enough!

My Husband and I reached out to Kate Diamond Photography shortly after our engagement. I had been following Katelynn's work for years, I knew I wanted her to photograph our wedding before my husband even started to think about a ring! I knew we would love our photos, but her work far exceeded our expectations! She did such a beautiful job capturing our precious moments, and made us look like the absolute best versions of ourselves! We looked so natural and comfortable, which is exactly what we had hoped for. Katelynn is extremely professional, she's a total dream to work with! Katelynn helped us so much with our timeline, giving us ideas about how to structure the day, and she picked the most beautiful bridal party photo location.. her familiarity with the metro Detroit locations is a total game changer! All I can say is if you get the chance to work with her BOOK IT & buy all the amazing digital downloads!! The photos she delivers are stunning, you simply can't choose. I'm obsessed! Thank you, Katelynn!! We appreciate you so much! You're the best!

HIRE HER! You won’t regret it. I made a spreadsheet, compared pros/cons, & interviewed several photographers. Some of them felt ok but nothing felt great, I worried the overall cost of things was souring my decisions. Then I interviewed Kate Diamond – I left the interview feeling GREAT. She had an answer to EVERY question (& I have a lot of questions), her enthusiasm was contagious, & I immediately felt confident that I could trust her to handle the day. She was extremely detailed, communicative, & clearly had a formula figured out that ensured success. I’ll be honest, her overall price for what I wanted was more than my other options by quite a bit. I had an internal struggle if it was justifiable to spend more money just because someone gave me confidence or peace of mind. My fiancé thought I was ridiculous spending even $1,000 on photos, & close friends would suggest we use some random person who takes photos as a hobby. I couldn’t shake the confidence I felt in her & decided to go with my gut. I felt immediate relief as soon as I booked her & absolutely knew she would rock it. We opted to have her & a 2nd shooter for 9 hours & they were amazing for every second of it. They were very professional, quick, organized, & worked well within the chaos that surrounds large events. They handled rambunctious groomsmen with ease & kept the day on schedule. Katelynn was great at providing specific posing direction, as needed, to help guarantee the perfect shot. She even helped pick out some last-minute jewelry choices! Not even mother nature could slow them down, & they took magical photos of our first dance in the rain. I received so many compliments from people the day after our wedding about how our photography team conducted themselves. People were already impressed & hadn’t even seen how the photos turned out! We received our online gallery with all event photos less than a week after we returned from our honeymoon. There were almost 1,200 photos & they are dreamy. I knew they would be good, but I fall in love with my photos more & more each day. The worst part is trying to choose a favorite when I’m trying to order a canvas or something to hang on the wall – I want them all to be seen! Trying to choose only 40 for my fine art album feels impossible. I don’t think my SO has ever been prouder of a photo before & my MIL said she has never seen prettier wedding photos in her entire life. Two other people that I know were married this year, both selected a photographer that was more ‘affordable’, & both had regrets once seeing my gallery. The difference in quality & overall experience is clear. We have had endless compliments about the photos we have shared, & every penny spent is justified. When all is said & done, you really don’t have much else to show from your perfect day – it absolutely flies by & becomes a blur. Do yourself a favor & savor it all in the best way possible. Get a 2nd shooter, the package with 100% of your photos, the longest package you can afford, & do a First Look. Pay for the travel if you need to, it is totally worth it. I guarantee that if you tell Katelynn what you want, she will do everything in her power to make it happen but it’s on you if you don’t share your thoughts. How someone makes you feel is worth it, spend the money on someone who relieves stress instead of adding to it, confidence is money well spent!

Kate Diamond Photography did a wonderful job capturing our wedding day and were fantastic to work with! I’ll start by saying my husband hates taking photos, but he loved working with Kate and Jessica. My husband is also a goofball and they put up with his antics! Our photographs are beautiful and look straight out of a magazine. Our friends and family can’t stop fawning over them! Kate was responsive and answered my questions and gave me advice. She felt more like a friend then a photographer. My husband and I decided not to go with a videographer, but we don’t feel like we’re missing anything because our photos are so great!

Love Love Love everything about KateDiamondPhotography and our wedding pictures! As professional as it can gets with Katelynn. Such a perfectionist with timing and all of our wedding posts. Would 1000% use her again for any up coming events! Thank you again guys you were AMAZING!

Photography was really important to me for our wedding. I wanted beautiful, elegant photos that my husband and I could cherish for the rest of our lives. With that said, we booked her EARLY, 2 years before our wedding date! While we felt like we were way ahead of the curve, apparently other couples were also looking to book her that far out because shortly after our first meeting with her, she informed us that someone else was also looking at our exact date (crazy right?!). We decided to put the deposit down that night so that we could hire her for our event because I didn't want to miss out on a really amazing photographer. Katelynn was very responsive to our emails and was always very professional. She showed up right on time and was able to control a crowd of people while doing group shots (definitely an important skill for your photographer!). My husband and I were blown away by the photos she took for both our engagement session and wedding. She has an amazingly creative eye and a really unique skill set. Her turnaround time was really quick, we had our photos back in about one month which felt crazy fast. Things I would recommend if going with Kate Diamond: 1. Book early so someone else doesn't take your day 2. Look carefully at the packages and understand what you are actually getting. This was our first time hiring a professional photographer and we didn't initially understand that getting an "online gallery of wedding day edits" meant being able to view the photos with watermarks and then having to decide which ones we wanted to pay for printing rights to on top of that. I would highly recommend going with a more expensive package from the onset despite the initial sticker shock. It is REALLY hard to make a decision on what selection of 250 or 350 photos you want to keep/have print releases for when you are emotionally tied to the photos of your beautiful day and the people who mean so much to you and you have over 1000 photos to look at! We ended up paying more than the cost of the second-tier package when it was all said and done after paying for the engagement photos we wanted (none were included in the base price the year we booked!), an extra hour of photography, and then deciding we wanted the download/printing rights to all the photos in the online gallery. Everything was absolutely worth the extra costs for the work she does, we just wished we would have considered the true costs earlier on. With that said, her work is absolutely amazing and we have no regrets about hiring her and would absolutely hire her again for work in the future.

Kate is a must have for everyones wedding! I am so happy we went with Kate Diamond from every detail of the day she captured it perfectly. Being a covid19 bride it was hard to feel like your wedding will be captured greatly after all the postponements, but she went above and beyond with surpassing all of our hardships! If Kate Diamond is on your radar for photography- take the leep and book with her- you will not be dissapointed in the slightest ❤

My daughter Brie Martin had her wedding this weekend Kate and Jessica couldn’t have been any more professional and sweet. They were capturing all the shots that Brie wanted and more. Her sneak peek was beautiful, can’t wait to see the rest. Thank you again for capturing the love between Brie and Matt. I would recommend you to everyone.

Katelynn was an absolute pleasure to work with, we couldn't imagine working with anyone else! She was there for us every step of the way, answering our endless questions and putting our minds at ease throughout the whole process. Her attention to detail is unmatched and she has given us photos that we will truly treasure for a lifetime. In fact, we loved our galleries so much that we ended up purchasing them all! If you are thinking of booking her, do it! You won't be disappointed!

I cannot describe how truly amazing it was to work with Katelynn!! She has a talent that is out of this world! From the engagement session to our wedding day, she made us feel very comfortable, and she knew exactly what to say, showing us how to pose, laugh, etc to get that perfect picture! Katelynn is professional, passionate, and one of the kindest people I have ever met. In addition to how amazing she was as our photographer, the photos she took were breathtaking. We were beyond thrilled with how they came out. I would recommend her a thousand times, with 5 stars! She captured our day in the most magical way and created a beautiful memory we will have forever. Thank you Katelynn for everything that you did for us!

I truly don't have enough words to express all the amazing things Katelynn has done for us during our wedding journey. If you are thinking about booking - do it now because it is so worth the investment! Katelynn gets booked up fast for a reason. :) Not only was Katelynn super informative about making crucial wedding decisions, but she did everything she could to make us truly feel special. She was flexible, patient, honest, and most of all kind. My husband and I love our engagements pictures and all of the incredible pictures she captured at our wedding. She thinks about every little detail in each shot. We now have these amazing memories that will last with us for the rest of our lives. She has a passion for what she does and will help make your wedding journey so memorable and special.

Words cannot ever truly describe how amazing it was to work with Katelynn!! She has a talent that is absolutely amazing. From the engagement session to our wedding day she was great to work with! Katelynn is professional, passionate, and one of the kindest people I have ever met. In addition to how amazing she is to work with, the photos she took were breathtaking, every single one of them. I would recommend her a million time over. She captured our day in the most magical way and created a beautiful memory we will have forever. Thank you Katelynn!!!!

From start to finish Katelynn has been a joy to work with. She has a beautiful eye for photography that seamlessly blends modern, gorgeous poses into natural, candid reactions. We could not be happier with how our engagement photos turned out and, once seeing the photos, are trying to bring her to our destination wedding next year! She’s kind, easy to work with, and makes being photographed a fun and comfortable experience. Do yourself a favor and make her your new go to photographer.

Words really can’t describe how amazing Katelynn is! From the very first email exchange, we could tell she was extremely professional and well versed in her craft. When we had our initial meeting, her organization and passion for her clients sold me immediately. She gave us tips for how to run things day of and even suggested we stay away from certain colors in our engagement photos. For us, knowing that she was committed enough to even help with our engagement photo attire convinced us she was the right choice. From then on, every correspondence was answered quickly and thoroughly. Myself and my husband were extremely nervous to be in front of the camera and not only did we have fun doing it, but we LOVE our photos. Katelynn’s aesthetic is truly incredible. The photos are authentic and genuine as well as editorial. Again, we genuinely can’t say enough good things about working with Katelynn. We really enjoyed working with her as a person and we are legit obsessed with our photos. You will not be disappointed if you hire her!

We loved our time with Katelynn, from the time we met her at my best friend’s wedding, to our own wedding! She is a pleasure to work with and has all the organizational skills every bride could use. I knew I was in good hands right after seeing the results of our engagement shoot and how beautiful the work was. I highly recommend her!!!

Choosing Katelynn was not only one of the best decisions I made for my big day but one of the first decisions I made because I knew ahead of time that I needed her to be my photographer. Katelynn is amazing!! She makes you feel so comfortable behind her camera. She's great at giving instructions and changing your positions to get the perfect shot. Katelynn is also very aware of her surroundings so she always knows where to go next for the perfect backdrop. She is patient, kind, and attentive! Her assistant Jessica was awesome as well! I can't say enough good things about my experience. You girls killed it! Thank you for all that you do for your brides!! Victoria & John

Katelynn and Jessica made our wedding day special! My wife is super inquisitive and has a planning personality - and Katelynn ALWAYS had an answer and reassuring word about our special event! Upon getting our photos back, I was stunned at how many moments were captured and how well both photographers blended in to the scene! They never distracted from the ceremony or traditional events and were polite to all the family and friends in attendance. You can’t find a more professional yet warm and caring photographer for your important day!

This girl has a true gift. I am confident in saying that she could make anything and everything beautiful. I came across Katelynn's work several years ago when she was the photographer for a family friend's wedding. I was immediately drawn to her style of photography and how her photos make you feel like you were there. I followed her ever since and her photos are actually what led me to my wedding venue. The first thing I did when beginning wedding planning was to contact her. I booked her and my venue at the same time to ensure her availability. (Thank goodness I did because she got an inquiry for my date the next day!) The best way that I can describe her and her photos is warm. She is a genuinely wonderful person that you can see yourself being friends with. She is extremely professional and organized. She makes the entire process from planning, the engagement session, to the wedding day fun. She gives easy to follow exact directions and is so confident in her work. There is no "fake" laughing photos with her because she is so funny and will actually make you laugh! I will be the first to admit that I have a type a personality and typically like to be in control. I do actually work full time as an Event Coordinator. I had always thought that I would need to show my photographer examples of the type of photos I was looking for. Never once did I feel like I needed to with Katelynn. I was completely able to trust her, follow her direction, and enjoy my wedding day. I have received so many compliments from friends and family who have said she made the picture taking process so painless and how nice she was. I was fortunate to receive my wedding photos back from her way sooner than expected and I am so in love with them. Do yourself a favor and stop looking for any other photographers. She is so worth it! Definitely have found our lifetime go-to photographer.

Katelynn start to finish was the best photographer we could of asked for. She is very professional and is also perky to make you feel comfortable when taking pictures. I never worried about the photos not being what I wanted. I constantly get compliments on our wedding photos and asked who was the photographer. I will always recommend her!

One of the best decisions I made for my wedding! I am so happy I hired Katelynn as my wedding photographer. I have followed her work for years and that was the first thing I was sure of after I got engaged. I knew I had to have her as my photographer. I love her editing style and even more so the way she runs her business. She is strong and assertive and she runs her business. She is easy to talk to and made us feel very comfortable and gave great direction to ensure we got the perfect shots. She also was always very responsive and helpful with planning and preparing. I would recommend any bride to have her as their photographer, I plan to live through the photos she took for our special day and I know I will enjoy doing that for the rest of my life!

Katelynn did our wedding and engagement photos, and I am soooo happy we chose her! From day one, she was professional and responsive, and made the whole process simple. She is great at giving direction and suggestions to get the perfect shot- she really makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. If you are searching for the absolute perfect wedding photographer, stop searching and go with KPolidan Photography!

Katelynn & Jessica were so important in helping us to have the very best wedding day we could have dreamed of. We first met with Katelynn to have an in-person consultation. She provided us with all the information we needed to decide she had to be our wedding photographer. Every package comes with an engagement session included. Originally, we had not really wanted to do an engagement session, but it is super helpful in getting us comfortable in front of the camera, see what style your wedding photos will be done in, and just get to know Katelynn & have some awesome pictures for Save the Dates! Leading up to the wedding, Katelynn sends over very detailed planning documents to help you and her stay organized and on track & prepared for the wedding day. We did not have a “shot list” in mind, but Katelynn was instrumental in helping us get every photo we could have imagined on our wedding day. From arriving at the hotel, to our first look, bridal party & family photos, candid’s, details- everything was perfect. Katelynn & Jessica knew our day-of timeline pretty much by heart & were always keeping us on track (invaluable when it’s your wedding dance and lose all sense of time!) Katelynn is so professional, but makes you feel so comfortable at the same time. The variety of packages and collections available to choose from are so great, as you can customize your experience with pretty much any budget level. Katelynn is SO busy but makes you feel like you’re the most important person in the world! We have only seen one wedding photo so far and I’m 1 million % positive they are going to be just as amazing as the sneak peek we’ve seen. We LOVED Katelynn & would highly recommend her to anyone getting married or wanting any type of photo session done.

Katelynn is not only a genuine and kind hearted person but she takes the most stunning photos. I seriously loved every single photo she took. From the moment she arrived for our July wedding on Lake Michigan, she was organized, kept us on our timeline the best she could and captured every moment. You literally don’t have to do anything but be yourself and enjoy the moments with your husband, family and friends. I knew after she shot one of my best friends wedding’s that my husband and I just had to have her shoot our big day. She is worth every penny and more, she has an eye for magic, so don’t hesitate and book her! Also, Katelynn’s second shooter was amazing as well, she shot the boys while they were getting ready and was by Katelynn’s side the entire today and she absolutely has an eye for the best shots as well.

My husband and I absolutely loved Katelynn. Worth every single penny, every single photo turned out perfect!

My husband and I got married in July of 2018. We had been to a few weddings where Katelynn was the photographer- so we were familiar with her work and knew we wanted her-even before we booked our venue! Katelynn was FANTASTIC to work with. She went above and beyond for our engagement and wedding photos. She was so creative and made us feel comfortable. On our wedding day, Katelynn kept to our schedule (and kept us on time!) I wore my hair down and the curls fell out a little (our wedding was in late July) and her assistant even re-curled my hair! Our photos/album turned out so well. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

I have known Katelynn since she first started in photography back in high school.... Her passion has truly blossomed and is reflected in every photo she takes. I was so impressed with her work over the years, there was no doubt in my mind that I would hire her to photograph the most important day of my life. She met my husband and I at a local coffee shop in downtown Rochester just to get to know my husband! She even offered to take an at home session so she (and we) could get comfortable in front of the camera. For our wedding, Katelynn and her assistant traveled from Detroit to Grand Rapids. Katelynn is incredibly professional, talented and creative. Not only is she a photographer, I would consider her a coordinator as well. She kept us on time the entire day and even stayed a little bit later than scheduled just so my husband could get a few last photos with his groomsmen. She is simply THE BEST!

What can I even say about Katelynn that hasn’t already been said? From the first time we met with Katelynn I knew she was special. I had seen her photos on pinterest and on my Facebook news feed after a friends wedding and I knew I had to have her. What I really loved about Katelynn is that upon our first meeting, she really took the time to sit down and get to know us a couple. Her personality and willingness to get you the most perfect photos are what sets her apart from the rest. She is so personable and creative. Katelynn and her assistant worked tirelessly on our wedding day, outside, in 93 degree heat to make sure our pictures came out perfect. Katelynn does not just stand behind the camera while she works - She held my dress up while I walked around over sticks and tall grass, offered me granola bars after the ceremony while we were all standing in the sweltering heat taking photos, adjusted my huge dress about a thousand times to get the perfect picture and even wiped the sweat off my fiances face so she should get the perfect shot! She got so many great shots and we did not have to worry about a thing. I expected our pictures to take a few months to come back, which is the standard time, especially considering we got married during the “busy season.” When I got an email that our photos were ready ONE MONTH after our big day I was thrilled out of my mind. Our pictures turned out incredible and every time we look at them we are able to relive our perfect day. Our experience with Katelynn and her team was more than I could have ever wished for. I cannot wait for all of the future maternity, family and anniversary sessions we will book with her.

I originally met Katelynn when she shot my sister's wedding. When I got engaged, I booked her first- even before my venue. She did not disappoint! Between our engagement session and our wedding (both downtown in a city) she made everything look whimsical and stunning, even in the middle of a construction site! We are so impressed with her photography, her charisma, and her willingness to help. Thank you Katelynn for an amazing set of memories!

Out of all the important decisions that come with planning a wedding, choosing Katelynn as our photographer for our big day was the EASIEST decision we had to make, not just because we had heard (and seen) how amazing she was with my sister and her now husband's big day, but because she was relatable, personable, FUN, and we knew immediately she'd be a perfect match for us. The results spoke for themselves, and I lost count on all of the compliments we received on our wedding (and engagement) photos. I HIGHLY recommend Katelynn (and her team) for your engagement pictures and your big day. You won't regret it!!!!

What can one say about Katelynn that hasn't already been said?! This woman is hands down THE best photographer. Katelynn has such an amazing soul and is an incredible pleasure to work with. She has captured so many important moments in my life from family photos with my son as a single mom to now a wife where my engagement and wedding was captured by Katelynn. She makes you feel at ease with her and creates beautiful photos to forever remember your special day! Thanks Katelynn for being on this crazy journey called life with me and for capturing some of my most precious moments!

Absolutely phenomenal experience!! Katelynn makes you feel so comfortable while taking pictures and captures the essence of moments so beautifully

​If you are reading these reviews trying to figure out whether to chose K. Polidan Photography as your wedding photographer, please stop thinking about it and JUST DO IT!!! You will not be sorry! PROMISE! From the moment that I first saw her work on her FB page/website, to the day that my husband and I met her for our first consultation; we knew she was the ONE to capture our day. Choosing K. Polidan Photography/Katelynn was one of the best choices we made in our wedding planning process. Katelynn is professional and easy to work with. We really felt like we were working with one of our close friends, not someone that we had only met a few times. Our engagement photos last fall turned out beautiful; she captured our vision of a downtown Detroit engagement session perfectly. On our wedding day, Katelynn and her second shooter Jessica were amazing! They kept things running smoothly the entire day and were able to fit in all of the pictures that we wanted. We received so many compliments of how great they were. We just received the gallery from our wedding day and we could not be happier with how they turned out. While going through the hundreds of pictures of our wedding day I was in awe at how completely breathtaking they were!! I knew Katelynn's work would impress me, but I am completely astounded at what an artist she is. She truly made me feel like the most beautiful bride! We couldn't believe that our wedding photos look like an ad from a bridal magazine. These pictures are not only be a snap shot of our day; they are the memories we will able to look back on for our lifetime!! Thank you soooooooooo much K. Polidan Photography!!!! Can't wait to have you capture more photos for us in the future!! :)

Before choosing a photographer for our big day, Jeff and I both new that it was one of the most important decisions we would make; after all, pictures last a lifetime. After viewing K.Polidan Photography’s portfolio I just knew we had to meet Katelynn. Our engagement session was a dream and it truly sealed the deal that we wanted to have her capture our wedding. What I like about Katelynn is that she truly takes the time go get to know you as a couple before your wedding day arrives. I can say that neither Jeff nor I are very comfortable in front of a camera, but all of that disappears once she takes charge. I ended up doing a boudoir session with her before the wedding and I am SO glad I did! Those pictures turned out phenomenal and gave me that extra boost of confidence before my wedding day! It also made a great gift for my husband. The day of the wedding, she knew what was important to us to capture, and I had no worries that they would miss a shot. She also took us aside to capture priceless pictures of just the two of us throughout our venue and those pictures are probably the best ones we received. Needless to say, ALL of our pictures turned out PHENOMENAL and every time I look at them, I get to relive all of the special moments and emotions of the best day of my life! Katelynn’s professionalism is one of her strongest traits. We always received prompt responses to any questions we had. She chooses terrific people to work with K.Polidan photography because her second shooter was amazing as well. She was always there to help adjust my (HUGE) dress and capture shots from a second angle. I could go on and on about how awesome our experience was, but the fact that my sister chose her for her upcoming wedding says enough. I can’t wait for her big day, and I can’t wait for future opportunities to work with Katelynn, maternity, anniversary, the opportunities are endless.

Katelynn was an absolute dream to work with - there are truly not enough nice things I can say about her or her work! We knew after meeting with her, she was the one we wanted to capture our wedding. Our engagement picture turned out absolute perfect, and it was the perfect chance to get to know her and her style better. Our wedding pictures turned out better than we could have ever imagined, honestly. Katelynn and her team captured just about everything! She was so easy to work with, captured even the smallest of details and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Throughout the whole planning process, the one thing I was never worried about was Katelynn and her ability to capture our day!

Katelynn and her coworker did an amazing job. Honestly I have put off writing a review because that truly means John and I's big day is finally over, but I am so happy to have worked with such a great photographer so I will always remember my dream day. Katelynn gave amazing directions that made every photo flow naturally, she also was able to capture every possible memorable moment from our big day. From those in my bridal party who have stood up in other weddings before, they said she was the best photographer that they have worked with because she is naturally amazing at her job. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect photographer and also a great wobble dance partner :) Thank you to K.Polidan photography for spending our beautiful wedding day in June with us and even for traveling to the west side of Michigan for us. Perfection! I would recommend K.Polidan Photography over and over again!

I loved working with Katelynn for both our engagement photos & our wedding photos! She is easy to work with, always quick to respond to emails/phone calls, focused on what was important to us and her pictures are fabulous. We couldn't be happier with are finished photos. Thank you Katelynn and the K. Polidan team!

What can I say about Katelynn. She and her team were amazing to work with. Katelynn is very laid back and maintained a professional atmosphere that made us feel very comfortable. Every single shot from getting ready, to the dance party at the reception, were perfect. So perfect in fact, we had to buy all 1,000 photos! Her style is one of a kind and we plan on using her again when our family is ready to grow. We are thankful for Katelynn for being so flexible in 12 inches of snow on our wedding day, getting out there and capturing us in the snow.

Katelynn is amazing to work with she made us feel so incredibly comfortable. She has such and eye to capture "the moment". I love every picture she took for both our wedding and engagement shoot. She is truly a blessing and you can tell she truly loves what she does. There was never a moment of feeling posed for a picture they all came so naturally and everything was beyond my imagination. She will be taking all of our pictures from this point on. There really isn't enough good things to describe how much we loved our experience. If you want to feel beautiful in every picture and want a carefree, wonderful experience I highly recommend Katelynn!!

Katelynn and her team are extremely professional. They are kind and flexible as well as attentive to my needs as the Bride. At one point my photographer brought me and opened bottle of water to the dance floor because I was going non-stop and she knew I needed it! How sweet & thoughtful! My pictures are beautiful and I was stress free on such a wonderful day!

Katelynn is the best. She's an incredibly professional photographer, and she also makes you feel so comfortable. She's so enjoyable to work with. She takes your ideas into consideration, and she's also very conscious about the lighting, backgrounds, poses, etcetera so you're guaranteed to get some awesome photos. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Katelynn was amazing, friendly, professional, talented, the list goes on... We really enjoyed working with her and the photos really helped us remember our perfect day. Her angles and compositions are beautiful, and gosh she makes it hard to pick a favorite. She can turn anyone into models, and obviously can produce Pinterest quality photos in a single shot. I highly recommend her services and have already. Guests, family and friends throughout the wedding as well as even after the fact keep complimenting her and her photography skills. We also opted for a second shooter, Boyan, and he captured some great angles and shots as well. We are really happy that both of them got to make a weekend out of the work trip, and my husband and I are 150% satisfied with K. Polidan Photography.

I truly can't express how blessed I was to find Katie and book her for my June 27th wedding. She was the sweetest, nicest, and the most professional photographer I have EVER worked with. With all of the stress that weddings can put on a bride, I never once was worried about my pictures. She thought of everything and was able to stay calm and collected even with delegating large families, multiple locations, and rain. Katie even wore her rain boots so she could capture every moment, even if it meant standing in the creek! My pictures are so beautiful and Katelynn is worth every single penny for her talent. For the hundreds of compliments I received for everything Katie has done will last me a lifetime. I know that within the next few years when my sister gets married, Katie will be the first they go to for their photos!!! Best wedding decision I made by far (well besides marrying my husband :) )

K.Polidan photography was absolutely incredible. All our pictures from our engagement shoot were beautiful. We ended up using them on our save the dates and received multiple compliments from guests. Katelynn knew exactly how to pose us and captured what our relationship is about. I also used the services for a boudoir shoot. I'll start off by saying that I was extremely nervous since I had never done anything like that before but once I was there I had a blast! Katelynn helped me by sending wardrobe ideas and made me feel super comfortable! Not to mention, my husband ended up loving them! So needless to say, I just received my wedding album and I look forward to going through it! I know there will be awesome pictures in there and I can't wait to share them with family and friends. I will recommend this photographer to anyone and everyone with a wedding coming up!

Katelynn has truly been a pleasure to work with since the very beginning! I fell in love with her style of photography and knew I had to have her for our wedding! She took our engagement photos on her gorgeous property and I was beyond thrilled with the way they came out! Katelynn and her assistant photographed our wedding in the beginning of June. She is everything we could have hoped for in a photographer (organized, professional and creative with photo opportunities)! Katelynn did an amazing job at making us feel comfortable in front of a camera and she is a ton of fun to work with. We are extremely grateful for all of the special moments she has captured for us and for the gorgeous pictures we will have for a lifetime. I feel like we have built a friendship over these sessions/events and I am so glad K.Polidan Photography has been a part of one of the best years of our lives! We will definitely be using Katelynn again in the future!

We absolutely love our wedding pictures that Katelynn captured. Even though it rained on our wedding day, Katelynn was able to get stunning photos of us. She is the easiest person to work with and can take all the awkwardness of posing for pictures away. Katelynn is just all around amazing, from person to photographer!

Katie is a wonderful person and an even better photographer! We would recommend her to anyone we know! She was our wedding photographer and she is the best! I couldn't wait to have her at our wedding and taking the photos of our special day! SHE WAS MY #1 CHOICE and we are so lucky we were able to work with her.

k..so My wife and found K. Polidan Photography on pinterest before we even knew that she was local in our area..about 4 months later and after filling pages on pinterest of her amazing work, we ran into her at an open house and were star struck! We immediately struck a conversation with her and fell in love with her personality after we already were in love with her work! It was a match made in heaven...just like my wife and I! From the second we met her, she was so helpful and always available for questions and ideas. We had an engagement shoot and her work took our breath away! then came the wedding day! The most anticipated day of our lives..and stressful...and there Katelynn was to help assist us every step of the way and made our memories beautifully displayed forever! She was one of the best choices we made for our wedding (besides eachother of course). She is very professional, experienced, fun, creative and one of the nicest people you could ever work with! I HIGHLY recommend her for any event or for anything that you want to have memories of! We will use her for anything we can for the rest of our lives together! Thank you again Katelynn and crew! You made our big day so amazing and we look forward to many more shoots!

Katelynn is a wonderful friend of ours whose taken, not only our wedding photos, but maternity and newborn photos. I can't express enough the amazing talent Katelynn has. She has a very unique vision that brings out the best in your photos. Getting married in St. Ignace, MI we had a beautiful setting and katelynn captured every aspect of that. She made everyone so comfortable and we had so much fun. I recommend her for ALL of your photography needs!

Let me start out by saying, Katie is absolutely awesome. She did both our wedding photos and our daughter's 1st birthday. Katie is not only extremely professional, but so much fun to work with. She made the experience, both times, so enjoyable. I was nervous I was going to have to figure out how to pose or what to do...nope! Katie is so awesome at what she does, she knows exactly what is going to look best. She made us feel so relaxed which allowed us to really enjoy the whole experience. When it came time for my daughters birthday pics, I was a little nervous because I had heard from friends how tricky the one year photos can be...not with Katie! She was SO engaging for our 1 year old daughter and made it just a great experience. We were so happy with all the photos she took and I will definitely be calling her the next time we need pictures done. I highly recommend Katie.

I chose K. Polidan Photography for my engagement and wedding pictures and I could not be happier. Katelynn made us feel so comfortable and it translated in the images by providing a natural feel. Her professionalism and promptness helped through the planning process as well. Wedding planning can be so hectic so to have vendors like Katelynn that make the process as seamless as possible is so important. The engagement photos and wedding photos were absolutely gorgeous, she focuses on natural light and each image reflects her 'soft' style that I fell in love with. I would recommend Katelynn to any soon to be bride, I guarantee you will not regret your decision. I not only found a wedding photographer, I found a photographer who I will continue to use as new life experiences come along and most of all I found a friend. Thank you again K. Polidan Photography.
