Photography was THE most important thing to me on my wedding day. I’m picky about photography because my mom used to work for a wedding photographer, but I also didn’t want to brea...
k the bank. We had Dawn, Kate’s associate photographer, and we feel so lucky to have worked with her. Her photography is beautiful, she is hilarious (we laughed with her our whole wedding day), and she is knowledgeable and professional. All communication goes through Kate, and she has super fast communication. Out of all my vendors she always responded the quickest. Our engagement photos were so great and from what I’ve seen of the wedding photos (a couple that Dawn showed me on the back of the camera the day of without editing) they’re going to be even more amazing. Book Kate Marie Photography! You won’t regret it at all.
Kate is absolutely amazing. From start to finish, she was professional, responsive, and an overall awesome person to be around. The day of our wedding, she was maestro at work and ...
captured everything we wanted and everything we didn't even know we wanted. Planning to use Kate for any photo opportunity in the future.
Kate was an amazing find for my big day. She is not only incredibly patient, flexible, and comfortable to work with. She provides great energy that makes you feel relaxed during yo...
ur big day. She manages to capture every shot you can imagine, and provides timeless photos that look so natural and beautiful. I couldn't be more thrilled about our entire shoot. I am so impressed that it made it very difficult to choose between all the shots that were taken. Thank you Kate for all of your hard work! I would recommend her for any type of photograph needed.
Kate is magical. We could not have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding day. She has such a unique talent of putting everyone at ease to capture the most genuine...
, unique, raw moments. The photos of our wedding far surpassed our expectations and tell our love story so perfectly. We were married in May of 2012 and since then, Kate has photographed all our major life events. I will never use anyone else ❤️
LOVED having Kate as a part of our day as much as I love our photos we have from the day. She captured the moments perfectly and even more she captured our personalities in every p...
hoto. I went to Kindergarten with Katie but thanks to the magic of Facebook knew that she was a wedding photographer in Colorado and when we got engaged I contacted her and am so glad I did. Her packages were flexible and we got just want we wanted including a printed album which, if I had to do myself would never get printed. She was a dream to work with, navigating blended family dynamics, a crazy hot sunny day, and even getting great shots of our dogs too! We love our photos and cherish them and will continue to grow more found of them.
Kate is amazing! She made the process so easy and smooth. It was very important to have a photographer who moved through the family and bridal party shots pretty quickly, so we can...
have more time to do couple shots. And Kate delivered! She tailors her services to what is important to you. I am so pleased with my photos and she is an absolute joy to work with!
Kate is truly an amazing photographer. From start to finish she makes the whole process fun and easy. No matter how many “dumb” questions I had to ask she was always so patient a...
nd kind. Her fun personality makes you feel at ease throughout the whole process. Her artistic ability is absolutely stunning and my wedding pictures are the most romantic, dreamy photos I could have imagined. She really goes above and beyond to make you feel special and beautiful. I would recommend Kate to anyone and everyone who is looking for a professional photographer!! You will NOT be disappointed.
I cannot say enough good things about having Kate as our wedding photographer. Throughout the entire process, it was an absolute pleasure working with her. She was patient with our...
questions, and very responsive. Some of the best wedding advice I received was to find a photographer you enjoy being around because you are with them for so much of your wedding day. I completely agree with that advice, and for me Kate was the perfect choice. She made the wedding day so fun and relaxing. She was easy going while still being very attentive to details, and she brought the best out in everyone while she was shooting. And aside from her wonderful personality, she has incredible photography skills! We could not be more happy with the shots she got of our day. If I could give 1 millions stars I would, because Kate is truly the best!
The day we met Kate we knew that we didn't need to look any further for who we wanted to photograph our wedding. Her pictures were unbelievable but she also has a personality and s...
ense of humor that made me - someone who certainly doesn't love having his picture taken- immediately comfortable and excited about it.
Our impression that day was proven so right the day of our wedding. Her eye for what would look great and the way she interacted with the wedding party, we could be any happier with the decision we made.
I would recommend Kate again and again
Kate is one of the most talented, joyful, fun loving, put-you-at-ease photographers I have ever witnessed. She was our wedding photographer and I cannot begin to express how much...
my husband and I love our engagement and wedding photos- the photos are artistic, timeless and so beautiful that we have them displayed everywhere throughout our home. Kate was a joy to work with throughout the whole process and I would highly recommend her to anyone to photograph any occasion!
Kate Lyon is a professional, artistic, attentive, and thorough wedding photographer. Above all that, she is a kind human being who connects personally to the people she's photogra...
phing. We felt she did not just "cover" our wedding; she worked to understand it and to document it, to reveal the beauty of it. As we page through the hundreds of photos she took of our special ceremony, we are struck again and again by how perfectly she captured our own feelings about marrying each other in front of our friends and family (feelings we couldn't process fully at the time, that Kate's photography helps us re-live).
Everyone who has seen Kate's photos of our wedding has remarked on the artistry of her shots. She experiments with a variety of perspectives, and captures light as a true artist would. Every image she gave us seemed flawless.
Above ALL of that, Kate connected to us on that day. She got to know us, she got to know our daughter, and she worked to understand the intention of what we were doing. When our minister failed to show up (yes, that happened), Kate and her assistant helped keep us both calm, they helped us find our marriage certificate at the end of the ceremony, and they kept everyone at ease and laughing.
After our wedding, Kate processed our photos and posted some of her favorites on her blog as a hint of what was to come. She masterfully used social media and her website to help everyone remember the day and access the images. When she sent our USB drive with the images, as well as the prints we ordered, she included a beautiful, personal note. The entire time, she took this kind of care of us (when she contracted with her, she sent us a welcome bottle of wine and a journal for us to record ideas for shots). She is absolutely fabulous.
I would recommend Kate Marie Photography to ANYONE. She produces beautiful photography, but she also enhances the event with her presence. More, she embraced us as a lesbian couple with an adopted child, affirming that she finds all kinds of love beautiful and equally worthy of documentation.
In one word: WOW.

We had the most amazing experience with Kate Marie. Our wedding would not have been the same without her. We felt like we were friends with her - she is so nice and friendly - so...
that made doing intimate photos less awkward. She handled complex family dynamics with a breeze. We got pictures of all the different groups within our family without anyone feeling offended when they were excluded from certain shots. She is creative, having a great eye for unique shots. Our family and friends have not stopped raving about how amazing our engagement and wedding photos are, and we absolutely love them!
Your wedding day is the most important day of your life, and I know for mine what I worried most about was the photographer. I stressed over how I would find the right one, when a ...
coworker of mine recommended Katie. I looked at her website and her portfolio of fantastic pictures and I knew instantly I had to contact her. For your wedding, you want someone able to capture all the moments, all the emotions, to give you memories you look back on and smile, instead of pictures you hate, someone you can feel comfortable with. Katie has talent and heart in spades!!! She was more than just an incredible photographer, who gave me such stunning wedding photos that not only can I look back and smile from, but she gave me the first photos in my life that I have ever liked that have myself in them!! She is an amazing person with an incredible heart and her passion for photography and for her clients shines through her photos. I don't just see my memories in my wedding photos, I see my day through her artistic eye, beautiful colors and moments I was too distracted to capture. She was more than just a photographer for me, she was there for me when I needed her the most. We had only met a few times for coffee, but her personality is so fantastic you cant help but love her instantly and on the day of my wedding she helped me calm down when I completely lost myself in tears at the sight of my groom and was overwhelmed by all my emotions. She helped with my bustle when my 5 bridesmaids couldn't, she walked us through the day seemlessly and spent more time taking candid than posed photos(which I loved) and she took great control of crazy situations. She talked with me, laughed with me and I could not have made it through my day without her. She was one of the best parts of my and my husbands day, and that says a lot!! I will not only use her photography skills throughout my life, I have no problem shouting from the rooftops what an incredible photographer she is, the best of the best and picking her for your wedding is the smartest and easiest decision you can make!!
Kate is a wonderful photographer. We have only seen a few photos so far, but the couldn't have captured our day any better. She is so easy to work with and made everyone very rel...

I had booked a friend of mine as my wedding photographer. About 1 month before my wedding he canceled because he had double booked himself. Not awesome!

her photographer. Kate had shot a wedding of a friend of a friend. I saw their pictures on facebook and thought they turned out pretty good. So I got in touch with her and told her my situation. She got right on it! I warned her that my mom is a bit of a photography snob and might give her a hard time. She said "no problem."
She always shoots with a 2nd photographer which I think is really smart.
The day of my wedding was pretty stressful. I had too many people trying to be in charge and about 1 hour before my ceremony I had a bit of a nervous break down and started crying. I had never met Kate in person. I knew she was there somewhere and asked if someone could go find her. I was really nervous we weren't going to have time for pictures. She walked in and took charge. I felt totally reassured!
She handled my high pressure family. She told them what to do and they just did it. She was so professional.
I haven't seen all of my pictures yet, but she posted about 6 as a teaser on her work facebook profile and they are fantastic! Even my mom had to admit she did a great job! I am so happy with her work, her attitude and style. I would have booked her from the start if I had known how great she was. I had to pay more for her than for my friend, but it was worth every penny!
