Kreate Photography

big day. We loved the engagement session, which allowed us time to get to know one another and get comfortable in front of the camera with Katie. We're so glad we did it! The wedding day itself was a dream. Katie helped us finalize our timeline, corralled all of our friends and family members for photos in efficient and timely manner, and most importantly, took the most breathtaking photos of the most happy day of our lives so far. I can't recommend Katie enough, and we hope to work again with her soon for other happy events in our lives to come. Thank you so much Katie!

ntimate wedding so perfectly. Thank you Katie!

rtfully, romantically, and beautifully. We had such a wonderful experience working with Katie from the get-go. She is so laid back and easy to talk to, which makes a huge difference when you are stressing and planning everything else for the big day. She photographed our engagement shoot, and even though my husband and I were shy, we felt comfortable immediately when we met up with Katie. She guided us through the shoot, making us laugh and look/be more natural in our photos. It even rained during our session but she made it work well! We had so much fun and the photos turned out great. Katie was not available on our wedding date, but her other lead photographer/photography partner Molly Kate captured our big day and deeeelivered! She was hilarious and hyped us up throughout the day, along with the second shooter, Regina. They made us feel so comfortable and attractive! LOL :) We could not stop laughing the entire day thanks to them. They were also super helpful moving us along to help us stick to our timeline as much as possible (but not being rude or pushy), while still being flexible when necessary. We could not have asked for a better experience for our photography. The memories, photos, and overall experience we had with Kreate Photography are all amazing beyond words. Katie really has such phenomenal vision, which she surely executes. We are so grateful to have these precious photo keepsakes for generations to come. Even the engraved wooden USB for the digital files was gorgeous, and it was delivered along with a handwritten card and dried lavender. We 1000% would recommend hiring Katie and her solid team for your big day, let alone any occasion really. She is worth the investment and the quality of her work speaks for itself, but it would be remiss of us to not spread the true good word of her work. Thank you, Kreate Photography. You're awesome.

chedule, she made sure to capture all of our "must-have" shots, and most importantly made it her priority to ensure that my wife and I had the time of our lives. Katie made our wedding day special, and we cannot thank her enough for her diligence and attention to detail. We gladly recommend Katie to any and all couples. She is without a doubt one of the most exceptional photographers in the Bay Area.

ing day. She pays such attention to detail and brought such a sense of comfort and ease. We absolutely love our photos. They are so beautiful, detailed and real. So many people have asked which photographer we used. I whole heartedly recommend Kreate Photography. Katie is truly something special

day perfect. She kept in touch from our first conversation until the wedding and gave us candid feedback on a handful of vendors - this was invaluable since we had to work from a shortlist of preferred vendors the venue provided and because our 3 trips out to the area for wedding planning had to be very efficient in how time was spent. I can't even begin to describe how amazing she was on the wedding day - she was such a positive yet assertive presence who made every one of us (bride, groom, bridal party, parents, etc.) feel at ease! The 2017 wildfires took place only about 2 weeks before our wedding and our wedding day was slated to have rain and yet I never worried once that the photos would be anything but incredible. Katie has an unparalleled talent - we would 100% hire her again if we had to do it over!

nts, the highlights of our ceremony and reception, the admiration and love of our guests and all of the small details that we put in to our wedding (flowers, sings, favors, etc.). She has a way with light to make a picture look magical. More importantly, she really took the time to get to know us as a couple and project the "vibe" that we wanted to create with our big day. I have followed her work for years and I know she does romance very well, but she took the playful vibe of our wedding and ran with it. We have the perfect mixture of romantic and fun pictures. We knew we were comfortable with her right away, but she made everyone in the wedding feel comfortable as well and worked so fast, getting people where they needed to be and made sure we caught the best light for our photos. Thank you Katie for creating memories that will last us a lifetime. Our love truly shines through the photos and for that we are eternally grateful!

lar budget, we were able to work with Katie to connect with one of her amazing associate photographers - Molly Kate. Communication leading up to the wedding day was easy and always timely, and our in person meeting to discuss particulars felt like we were talking to old friends. We couldn't have asked for a better team to work with. The day of, Molly Kate and her assistant photographer were amazing and captured everything we could have asked for and more. All our guests were impressed with how seamlessly Molly Kate worked and we are thrilled with the quality of the photographs. Even the follow-up from Katie and her team was beyond thoughtful. Our digital library was beautifully crafted, and the thumb drive of photos was sent in an engraved wooden box with our names. All the small details made choosing Kreate Photography and Design without a doubt the right one!

d accompanying wedding photos. She was consistently calm, collected, and having a great time, which helped us relax in situations that could have otherwise been stressful and overwhelming. She is professional, responsive, and helpful - and above all, she is an expert at her craft. I couldn't recommend anyone more highly and will be forever grateful to Kreate Photography for making our wedding day, and the visual memories of it, so perfect. Thank you Katie!

photos look great. During the wedding we didn't even know she was there and yet the photos prove that somehow she was everywhere. We now have the photos and they're beautiful. Every moment was captured beautifully, and the website they are presented on is not only easy to navigate, but really attractive as well, making them look that much more special! The last thing I want to note is something that really exemplifies the service provided. We got our USB with the photos on a few weeks ago, and even that was beautifully packaged,and presented. The USB! Thank you Molly and Katie for all your work on our wedding. You did an amazing job and we can't thank you enough!

s. Everyone who sees them is legitimately and genuinely impressed. They are beautiful and working with Katie was very fun and relaxed. Our wedding photos, which were taken at a Sonoma Winery on October 7, 2017, were as good or better. She brought an assistant, Jessica I believe, who was equally talented and fun to work with during our incredible moonlit evening and night. Katie really listened to what we wanted and didn't want. And, she captured the moment so exquisitely. Katie was by far the best vendor we worked with during the wedding process. No joke, we had a miserable wedding planner (Cinthy at a Touch of Grace) who we immediately just bypassed due to incompetence, and Katie even stepped in during the wedding to get some SHIT DONE when our planner was nowhere to be found. Avoid Touch of Grace wedding planners if possible. They are seriously laughable. Conversely, attempt to get Kreate Photography to work with you at all costs! One final note, Kreate Photography recently did a family photo shoot for our brother and his young family...the photos are amazing. And, she got a 2 and 1/2 year old to look at the camera and smile! Thank you, Katie. You will be taking our family photos for the rest of our lives...you're stuck with us.

Katie is great with making you feel comfortable during photoshoots, the poses were not forced which made the pictures very intimate! She was very helpful during the day of the wedding especially since we had a ton of group family photos after the ceremony and a guest count of 330! Katie was able to capture all the moments and more! I highly recommend her!

mend her to anyone!

ums. I will be sure to use her again in the future!

social media and not only that, but posts BEAUTIFUL photos because when you choose your photographer, it's important to examine how they take photos. I reached out to Katie (owner) and instantly fell in love with her work and to top it off, she herself, is very easy to like! My now husband and I met up with Katie in Oakland for dinner and went over day-of details and to really, meet each other; I really wanted to make sure that we connected with someone who was going to be capturing one of the most important days of our lives (plus, Katie makes sure she feels connected to the bride and groom too!). Throughout the entire process leading up to the wedding, Katie was on top of reaching out and was extremely professional and down to earth at the same time. When the wedding day came...again, Katie and her second photographer, Molly, were on time and took their job seriously. I have to give them a ton of kudos since they did their job in what should have been an 83 degree day on what turned out to be 106 degrees! The whole process of working with Katie felt natural and easy which is what makes Kreate Photography so great! We received our photos back earlier than what was stated on our contract and they turned out beautifully. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and you really do get what you pay for :) We will be taking her up on her offer for future photography sessions too!

our wedding day, I felt like I had known her for years. She was absolutely amazing!! She was fun to work with and made me feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. We didn't have a wedding planner, as our wedding was only 30 people, but she was so organized and really helped us in that area as well. She even sent us a sneak peak of a few photos the night of the wedding (after her two hour drive back home!). After seeing those pictures, we could NOT wait to get the rest of them. Once we received our online gallery, we could not be happier! The pictures were exactly what we wanted. They are so natural and really encompass the beauty of the day- both the gorgeous scenery, and the love between us and our closest family and friends. I would recommend Katie to anyone looking for a talented, fun photographer!

ade everything simple. She is incredibly warm and friendly, while still being direct and to the point, and is all about getting to know you as the customer (something that struck me as rare after the first few photographers with whom I spoke). She was always quick to respond which was great because I sent a ridiculous amount of emails. The wedding day itself was incredibly smooth thanks to her punctuality and attention to detail. Her second photographer Molly was amazing as well. I legitimately hate getting my photo taken, and even I felt at ease with Katie and Molly. Even after the wedding, Katie has remained super communicative with the albums and photos, etc. In all honesty, I had a little sticker shock when I got the quote but Katie was amazingly flexible with adjusting the package to work with us. And the quality of her work made the price a bargain. After later review, I figured out Katie is priced very competitively with other top notch Bay Area photographers. I can not recommend Katie highly enough! You will be beyond happy with your experience.

really set Katie aside from other photographers. We both have large families and large wedding parties and Katie made the whole process so seamless. She captured all of our must have shots as well as those great candid moments. Honestly, her work speaks for itself. Just look at her portfolio. When i found her on the knot I knew immediately she would be the one. She was the first vendor we booked and our favorite of the whole wedding. We cannot wait to work with her again.

be too! She was so easy to work with, understood our vision, and although we barley knew she was there, she got some of the best shots we could've hoped for. She had the best balance of getting the perfect shot she wanted and still giving us the opportunity to enjoy in our day. She is R-A-D.

We absolutely loved working with Kathryn, she is professional, very nice and just joy to work with. Even before the shoot, she helped me pick out my outfits, suggested best venues for our shoot and really guided us through the whole process. I recommend Kathryn to everyone and make sure to book her for your wedding, you will not regret it!

've learned that getting to know the photographer's personality and their style of work is very important. She's easy to talk to and understood the vision that we were looking for with our engagement photos. During the engagement shoot, she made us feel so comfortable and she's so easy and fun to work with. We got our engagement photos within a couple weeks and absolutely loved it! She captured our vision perfectly. We used one of the photos for our Save the Date and we've gotten many compliments about how great the photo looks. We would definitely choose her to take our photos again in the future. We highly recommend her and her services. She's great!

to talk on the phone. We talked for about an hour regarding my wedding photography vision and what we wanted out of her. She is very funny, kind, professional and easy to talk to. It was easy communicating with her via phone, text, and email. The day of the wedding she was ready and took charge of taking all the shots we discussed. I felt so relaxed knowing she was doing what she did best, capturing our wedding day! We received samples of our wedding day about 2 weeks later and were then given a link to all of our photos a month later. Everyone who has seen our photos are in awe! We are so happy and pleased with everything!! Thank you, Katie, for your amazing work and we recommend her 100%+++ ps: do not be shy to ask for any special pricing during off-season weddings. She was very mindful of our budget whch is something we were so grateful for.

t (so many of which we missed while they were happening!). The website and USB she provided to us after it was all over were beautifully put together. We couldn't wait to share her work with all our friends and family., and they were blown away by her work. Katie was exceptional from the very beginning and we were very fortunate to have found her!

already recommended her to a few friends getting married soon and I know they will be as thrilled as we are with our photos.

lso made picture time during our wedding less stressful by being timely and organized! IMHO: you can't go wrong unless you go with another photographer!

t and detail better than you could imagine. But really the reasons she was so amazing go far beyond the photos. She is so professional and experienced that she made sure everything about the evening went seamlessly for the amateur videographer we used, to the DJ who wasn't paying very good attention, to the timeline that was inevitably not quite on track, and the grounds crew of the venue neglecting to take down some of the ceremony elements. Katie has an amazing attention to detail and was aware of all the moving pieces simultaneously. She made sure ALL our vendors were doing their job correctly so that we didn't have to. I can't express how priceless this was for us! We spent more money on her than any single other aspect of the wedding and it was worth every single penny! Last but not least, Katie is a badass women and business-owner. She is super chill but takes her job very seriously. Her instagram feed is like a dream and I still love following it. Can't wait to work with her again for something special in the future!

ceremony). I like her photograph style. Her photo package includes online gallery and a USB. It definitely wroth the money. :)

eate some amazing fine art style photographs. Engagement photos are such a (wonderful) romantically vulnerable experience, and with Katie saying "Look at each other!" I found myself falling deeper in love with my fiancé. And she captured that love beautifully.

dding to ensure we were comfortable on the wedding day, as well as key members of our family. I sent her a list of shots I really wanted, and she did everything possible to make them happen. We are very happy and hope to work with Katie again.

t and the elegance of SF City Hall. She made us feel completely at ease and special on our wedding day! Our friends and family mentioned how she was both professional and sweet to everyone during our family photos. They mentioned how they couldn't even see her and she did not interfere with the ceremony, but still captured every precious moment! I cried when I saw the pictures for the first time. I would recommend her for any and all events!

's appropriate, be easygoing amidst a busy hotel room and can also diplomatically smooth over chaotic moments. Our shuttle was 30 minutes late, and she was able to take all of our pre-wedding photos, including the ones of pesky family members, efficiently and gracefully without a complaint. The pictures are fabulous, we now have a fun photo storyline of our special day. We will definitely use Katie again in the future and recommend her to all our friends.

de total sense to bring her along with us. It actually doesn't cost that much extra in the grand scheme of things, to have such a important aspect of your wedding done better than you could have imagined. Katie fit right in down in Sayulita, and had a lay of the land before we could even start asking questions about where to do certain things. She scouted out the perfect spots for our photos and handled the tropical storm that blew through on our wedding day like a champ. Unless you've had a wedding before, you don't realize that your photographer has the most intimate job on your wedding crew and is with you for all... i mean, most of the moments. More so than your coordinator/planner, especially if it's a destination wedding, because your coordinator is usually locally sourced, and your photographer has possibly been working with you since your engagement photos. It really is so important to have someone with a delicate, personal yet commanding persona to get you through the uber special two of you moments like your first look, and then deal with the craziness of family photos and entire wedding photos, and at the same time keep you on schedule. Katie was that person and we couldn't have done it without her. Needless to say the pictures were spectacular, and the way she presents them is above and beyond. I'm even a little biased when it comes to photography, because i do some myself, and i was still blown away by her work and KREATIVITY! Thank you Katie!

wedding party shots done--- and looking beautiful -- while under an intense pre-ceremony time-crunch. Or about the warm and encouraging vibe she brought while directing our posed pictures. Or about how she effortlessly captured the natural beauty of our venue, letting the landscape, the sea, and the sunlight speak louder than Photoshop. But the main idea I want to impart here is this: when my wife and I were looking back through our wedding photos, we had to constantly remind ourselves that the candid shots were, in fact, candid. That Katie was not off to the side, prompting people with directions to express delight, or adoration, or tenderness. It was just that Katie somehow knew exactly where to be, and when, in order to truthfully capture all the moments that made up that wonderful day. I can’t recommend her more highly.

She helps make you extra special and cared for. She appears to genuinely love what she does and that is priceless and translates into making the experience unforgettable and the photos timeless. Our day-of-coordinator went MIA in the middle of our wedding and Katie stepped right in and kept me calm and coordinated the cake cutting herself. I cannot say enough good words about Katie and her work. Of all of our wedding vendors, she was our favorite and I will never hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

he day we felt so grateful that we had chosen her to be the photographer at our wedding. She was very flexible with our particular needs, and her photo package was beautifully put together. I would recommend her to anyone!

kinda awkward for us. However, after meeting Katie on her engagement session, we felt totally comfortable and actually thought it was fun. I can't stop going through our pictures over and over again! Thanks Katie.

ng the shoot, my fiancé and I were (what I felt) very awkward, not really sure how to pose and when to smile - so naturally we were worried about how the photos would turn out. WELL! They came out fantastic - the shots were so artistic and we looked so natural against the backdrop. I couldn't believe how they came out. Love!

. I really love our photos and it will surely be a memory I will treasure forever.

nt pictures, pictures of DH and I during cocktail hour when we were alone (not a single photo of what I imagined and wanted was taken by the previous photographer). After a year of looking at the disappointing photos and having only one picture of us hanging in the living room, I decided that we needed a reshoot to get the pictures that we wanted. I cannot say enough how impressed I am with Kathryn. Not only did she do an amazing job, but the pictures are absolutely stunning. Kathryn is super nice and fun to work with, and she has great creative vision. It is so easily obvious that she loves what she does. Thanks to Kathryn, I finally have the pictures that I had envisioned. The only problem I'm having now, is choosing what pictures to hang on the wall!! I hope I get another chance to work with her in the future. Highly recommend!

could make would be to book her for your wedding!!

one of a kind photographs that are stunning and unique. She is also so lovely to deal with on a professional level and patient with getting pictures organized...and she won't miss a photo combination! We love Katie!!

was able to rally up everyone needed for pictures at the wedding. She has a wonderful personality and made sure to think of everything I didn't. My photographs are amazing and captured our wedding day perfectly. We have so many wonderful pictures to choose from which is a great problem to have. Her turnaround times are quick in responding and I got my pictures back quickly and in the time frame that she promised. I would highly recommend Kreate Photography for your wedding or any event. I couldn't be happier with the results!

eremony session were easy since there weren’t too many of us. My wedding on the other hand was crazy! have a huge family and a huge wedding party. In addition to the ceremony and reception, we also had to shoot the tea ceremony and the wedding party off-site photos. Katie was game for everything and didn’t complain once, she was so patient with everyone! From the get-go, I told her how much photos mean to me and that I want a ton. A TON. Katie did not disappoint. She made sure we got a shot of everything and anything. All the photos turned out beautifully and I could not be happier!!

ck with the timeline. She captured every special element and emotion of our day. She is a true artist and has an eye for all things that are beautiful.

s great at gaging what we wanted. She was assertive, which is what the day called for, and was able to guide our wedding party to where they needed to be and what they needed to do. As the bride that is priceless and exactly what I needed! I could not be happier with the pictures delivered by Kreate photography. Our wedding was such an important day, so much goes into it, when I go through the pictures I'm able to relive the day and all the emotions at play. The pictures are delivered in sections of the day, getting ready, first look, ceremony, reception which is great. Again, the pictured are just beautiful and exceeded our every expectation.

le and poised. She really knows how to capture a beautiful moment! And when our photos came back, I was awe-struck. One gorgeous image after another, capturing such sweet moments and silly ones, too. Katie has an eye for details, romance, expert lighting and close connection among friends and lovers. I can't recommend Katie highly enough - my best friend hired her for her wedding this summer!

! As a coordinator, it is really helpful when photographers are able to be flexible even when things get a little off schedule - Katie was so adaptable, positive, and cheerful the whole time. She totally blended in and managed to be unobtrusive while capturing some amazing moments. Some of my favorite photos of the day came out of an impromptu sunset session with golden light streaming down on the gorgeous just-married couple. I absolutely loved getting to work with Katie and hope we can collaborate again soon!

the warmth she exudes and the passion she has for making each bride feel even more beautiful than in her breathtaking pictures. Katie is incredibly timely in her response regarding any questions or concerns I had both before and after the wedding day. She is professional in her communication and always makes you feel heard. She was perfectly on time on our wedding day and was a great help in making sure that things ran smoothly, well out of her range of responsibility. She is just as lovely as her work. She is directive, which is so appreciated on such a hectic day, ensuring to get every picture you asked for and more. She also provides a sneak peek of your pictures to you as soon as she can and provides you with the rest of the pictures within the timeline on the contract. I am absolutely obsessed with the pictures that Katie took of our wedding day. Even though we got the pictures quite some time ago, I continue to look at them, very often… my husband will say that it is too often. I cannot get enough of how she captured everything from the minute details to the overall atmosphere of the day. She could not have captured the ambiance of the day more perfectly. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Katie! You were the best decision we made for our wedding day!

ally good job and fulfilled my husband's and mine wishes.

hone call and I knew right after our conversation that I wanted to end our photographer search and book her immediately. Our wedding was a destination wedding in Wine Country, so all communication that I had with Katie and the rest of my vendors was either email or over the phone. Katie and I never actually met until the day of the wedding, however you would never know that based on the way she acted and treated me. She made everything so easy and natural for us on the day of the wedding. During the months leading up to the wedding, she was always available to chat with me on the phone and easily answered my questions and put me at ease when I had concerns. After the wedding, she sent us a few preview shots and we were completely blown away by how amazing they all were. We couldn't wait to see the rest of them. She gave them to us in agreed upon amount of time, which we really appreciated as it was pure torture to wait for them!!! :) But once we received them, we had the exact same feelings, we were just in awe of the way that she captured our day so perfectly. She got everything from sweet random moments, to the detail shots, to pictures of our dear friends who came to the wedding, and of course all of the classic must-have shots. Katie definitely took the time to listen to us and understand what was important to us and what we valued for our wedding pictures. As I said before, I don't think it's possible to recommend someone so highly, but I would! She is absolutely fabulous and was a dream to work with!

made us feel so comfortable in front of a the camera that when our pictures came out they looked super natural. From set up to sun set she was a joy to spend the best day our lives with and if we had to do it all over again, we wouldn't change a thing. Thanks Katie! -Sebastian Nau

and the groom prior to our big day. Her calm energy was absolutely wonderful and her direction and suggestions during the photo shoots were incredible. She had us do some traditional and non traditional poses (which I loved), and captured every little detail. I now have a fabulous website with all my photos- not to mention that the week after my wedding she put out "highlight photos" so that I had some professional ones to share right away. I can save my favorite photos from the website and order prints directly! I can not wait to work with Katie again!

unning behind schedule, Katie helped me get back on track. She had a calming presence about her and went with the flow. I really appreciated her suggestions during the planning process. I was very happy to get my photos quickly and was pleased with the quality.

ssion. I appreciated her very personal approach to getting to know us and understand what we were looking for even if it was hard for us to articulate. She is very detail oriented and organized and this matched with her high level of experience really provided us with a clear vision and understanding of what we wanted from the final wedding photos. She truly has a magic eye for the smallest details and knew just how to capture the formal and informal moments throughout our wedding. From wrangling family members for the photos to suggesting personal and unique bride and groom photos, we were so impressed with her approach. She’s personable, organized and very experienced and this coupled with her passion and artistic touch truly left us feeling grateful that we had chosen her.

be willing to make the trip from Northern California to capture our wedding day. Communicating with Katie was always so easy, both via email and phone – she clearly knows what she is doing and has a million ideas, but she also listened to what we wanted and responded to our ideas as well. She asked us to make a list of “must have shots” and captured every single moment that we wanted. Her pictures are nothing short of exquisite. Everyone who has seen them has commented on the fact that we clearly hired a “really good” photographer. Katie’s ability to capture our day so beautifully was particularly impressive because it was not an easy day to capture. It rained in the middle of July, which was completely unexpected and created endless issues – our first look, our ceremony, everything was planned for the outdoors. We took our pictures before the wedding at the mission in San Juan Capistrano, and everything was behind schedule because people in Southern California are morons whenever the roads are wet. Katie found the perfect spot to take all of our pictures – a covered hallway – and she seamlessly led our wet and stressed out group of family and friends from one picture to the next with the skill of a consummate expert. She had a groomsman help to cover her equipment with an umbrella, and she stood in the rain for an hour and a half taking our pictures. My husband and I were pretty disappointed because we weren’t able to take the pictures where we wanted to, but the disappointment immediately faded when Katie sent our “sneak peek” pictures the day after the wedding. The photos are seriously breathtaking. They are above and beyond what I had hoped for. She captured not only the beauty of our fancy dresses and the breathtaking mission; she also captured small details, like the tears in my mom’s eyes and the luscious gardens that surrounded every shot. Because the rain put everything behind schedule, we all arrived at the wedding venue much later than we had intended. Katie arrived about 10 minutes before the ceremony. Still, she managed to capture the sign in table and the welcome decorations before the ceremony began. She was wet and must have been exhausted, but she didn’t show it for a second. She captured the ceremony beautifully, and she was there for the action for the rest of the night – she took incredible photos of the speeches and of the dance floor, and by the looks of it, she took a shot of nearly every guest who attended our wedding. Katie’s ability to keep her cool under pressure and to take incredibly beautiful pictures impressed us so much. And the shots are truly artistic. My favorites include the close up of my husband’s face as I walked down the aisle, his eyes filled with tears; the photos of niece, the flower girl, leaning against my dress and staring at the camera while I put my fingers through her hair (I had no idea Katie was taking a picture), and the photos of the best man’s speech, which was hilarious – she managed to capture the crowd’s response to his jokes, and the happiness in the room is tangible. Hire Katie. Now. You won’t be disappointed,

res and dissolved my fear of cameras in an instant. Her eye for creative design and unique photo opportunities is truly extraordinary. We are planning to have a second "wedding" or big celebration in the next year or two and we can't wait to work with Kathryn and Kreate Photography again!

otten nonstop compliments and the wedding photos!! She is WONDERFUL. Katie spent quality time speaking with me months before our wedding to get a sense of what type of event it would be, who would be there, how the timing would go between the ceremony and the reception. When I spoke to her I felt that she genuinely cared about helping make it the perfect day, taking stress off of the bride and groom, and keeping things as efficient as possible so as to make sure the focus of the wedding remains on the experience and not just the act of taking photographs. She was amazing!!!! Katie was responsive throughout the period leading up to the wedding. She suggested the most GORGEOUS place to take pre-ceremony pictures. It was beautiful, romantic, and she knew the location inside out and was able to guide us through to the most beautiful spots for the photos. She was on time, organized and kept things moving because she understood how much had to happen that day! During the family photos, Katie was patient with our family members but kept things moving so that we didn't miss our reception! Immediately after the wedding, Katie got us a few pictures to share with eager friends and family! She then put all of the photos up on a website where friends and family could order prints and mailed us a gorgeously packaged DVD. THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WITH KATIE WAS WONDERFUL. She showed us at every step of the way that she was interested in providing a quality service. Katie Rummel is a talented artist and I feel lucky to have had her be a part of our special day.

pert photographer, and we feel so lucky she captured our day so beautifully! Leading up to the wedding, Katie checked in with us during the perfect times, and kept us on track to be organized and prepared for the day. Having her there for hair and make up was just fun; and her presence during the ceremony and reception was totally discreet - you never felt like cameras were being thrust at you. She was also lovely with every single family member, including the little ones. Best of all, we could not be more thrilled with the outcome: our photos are gorgeously composed, and came out better than we could have ever expected. She captured the essence of the event in her style and choices, and got all the right moments and people. Simply beautiful, and this experience has exceeded all expectations!

d out wonderfully and I have so many beautiful photos to choose from. Photos started during the getting ready process for both myself and my husband and all aspects of the ceremony, reception, and all the big events were captured. Her artistic nature gave us some beautiful portraits!

e was totally accommodating in piecing together a plan that worked for our wedding day. She was really attentive to our specific wants and needs for the day and asked good questions to get at details we hadn't even thought of. At the wedding, she was the right combination of stealthy and present - I could tell she was getting a ton of shots but she was subtle and not at all intrusive. The photos turned out more beautiful than we could have hoped and Katie curated the photos into an amazing wedding album keepsake for us and our parents. I can't recommend Katie more - she's fantastic!

nd took care of it right away. She was my hero! I highly recommend hiring this gal!

she captured so many great moments.

r energy allowed my fiancé and I to open up in ways I never thought possible. I was so nervous to have my photo taken so much and she made me feel comfortable and beautiful. It was a blast working with her and we ended up with breathtaking photos that will last a lifetime! You have a lot of decisions to make as I bride, make this part easy on yourself and hire Katie. You will not regret it!

l difficult to choose, they are all that beautiful. KReate deserves the title of Best of Ca. Wedding Photographers.

"loosely planned" wedding, Katie's flexibility shone above all her other wonderful attributes. We are two people who don't know how to pose for a picture, and the idea of having my picture taken all day gave me extreme anxiety. Katie made it comfortable, fun, and natural-feeling. I was in absolute awe when we got our photos back- especially because we spent most of the time laughing, and I was sure I was blinking/accidentally drooling in every photo. Katie's abilities to feel us out translated into photos that represent us perfectly. She also did a magnificent job of getting the "must-have" shots and candids. All in all, Katie's range both in her ability to work the room with a camera and in the style of photo she takes make her stand out above any photographer I've personally dealt with. Our engagement and wedding photos are more lovely than I ever could have imagined. I'm truly thrilled, Katie! Thank you!

shots while I barely realized she was there; her presence was very calm and positive. Within a day of our wedding she'd already sent out a "sneak peak" of over 150 photos. My husband and I were in tears as we relived our beautiful day and were in awe at the moments she captured-- so real and poignant. I would recommend Katie in a heartbeat. Her work really speaks for itself, but also as a professional she is efficient, warm, and organized.

tos. Katie has such a bubbly outgoing personality and was more than a pleasure to work with. Every bride gets nervous trusting a vendor with their big day but Katie was one I had full confidence would capture every detail. Katie took the time to understand our style and vision for our wedding. Katie is very personable and easy to work with. I will with out a doubt be using her for maternity pictures and all of the fun stuff in the future that needs to be documented! if you want perfection for any of those big moments then KreatePhotography is the photographer for you. Thank you again Katie :)

ular, showing her in-depth photography knowledge. I'd strongly recommend her.

ard being photographed… especially photographed as much as you are for an engagement shoot session or as the center of attention as the bride and groom. Katie handles this task with ease, instantly relaxing you and having fun the entire time! She just makes you feel so comfortable. This is absolutely reflected in her gorgeous photos. Her style is beautiful, whimsical, romantic and creative. We ended up with so many breathtaking shots from our big day, we can't even begin to choose our favorites! Katie is prompt and professional. She edited and delivered our photos after our wedding in an impressive timeframe. She even sent us a handful of sneak peeks only a couple days after our wedding! That extra touch was very special because it made us so excited to see the final photos once she was finished with her magic. Katie was always open to my creative input and really flourished when asked for her advice and expertise. She made our vision, a reality! We hired a videographer to capture our wedding, alongside Katie's photography and they worked together seamlessly. It was so comforting to worry about nothing on the wedding day, when it came to the critical task of documenting one of the most important days of our life. She stayed in touch with our coordinator before the wedding and with us, which is an important quality in a wedding vendor when it comes to being a detail-oriented bride! I highly recommend Katie to anyone planning a wedding. She will capture the beauty of your day and leave you with stunning tokens that you will cherish forever.

too, which is a hard thing to accomplish. She also traveled to Point Reyes which was much appreciated! She was very professional, upbeat, and was very responsive to what I wanted. I would recommend Katie to ANYONE.

d I would recommend her to anyone getting married.

And, her artistic aesthetic is unique, classy, and timeless. I also appreciate her great business sense and professionalism too. She is a rare gem amidst the market of wedding photographers. I highly recommend her!
