Kurstin Roe Photography

e made sure everything ran smoothly while capturing all our special moments. The pictures themselves are stunning and timeless. We can't recommend Kurstin enough!

f ourselves. While we love Kurstin's personality and creative ideas, one of my favorite parts about his work is his editing style. All of his pictures are edited so naturally and elegantly but never lacking the WOW factor. I would happily refer ANYONE to Kurstin & his team.

ning. While we were going through the (very nerve-wracking) process of vetting different candidates to photograph our big day, Kurstin immediately stood out as the obvious choice. We loved his portfolio, but were especially impressed by his professionalism and proactiveness. We appreciated how he took the time to meet with us over the course of several weeks to get to know us as a couple - even before we started officially working with him! Not only did he guide us through the entire process and field our MANY questions, he was truly open to understanding our likes and dislikes. I (the bride) have never liked being in front of the camera, but Kurstin really took my concerns to heart and went out out of his way to ensure I felt at ease (and beautiful!) throughout the entire experience. Our wedding took place in VA, but my husband and I are based in NYC. Kurstin was happy to accommodate our busy schedules and travel out to the city for our engagement photo shoot. He spent the whole day trekking around Brooklyn and lower Manhattan with us, and ended up capturing some amazing pictures - many of which we picked as keepers for framing)! Our wedding day itself was nothing short of spectacular, and we were so happy to have Kurstin there to capture all the special moments. He brought a level of seasoned, calm professionalism to the table and played a critical role in keeping our chaotic wedding party organized and on schedule. We relied on his guidance and direction throughout the day, and also appreciated his flexibility and willingness to take our opinions and ideas into consideration. He went out of his way to check in with us and make sure we were comfortable over the course of each shoot. I had initially gone into the day dreading photos, but Kurstin's efforts and dedication helped transform the experience into a fun and enjoyable one for all of us! And of course, Kurstin's work speaks for itself. He is incredibly talented and possesses the uncanny ability to tailor his work to his client's taste vs. only specializing in one "style". He delivered our pictures in a timely manner and was incredibly patient with addressing our feedback. We absolutely LOVE all our wedding photos - from the staged family portraits, to the candids - and are so grateful to have so many options by which to remember our big day for years to come. We cannot recommend Kurstin enough!

o hang around with while taking our wedding photos. Most importantly - he captured our wedding in the way we wanted that highlighted the love and joy of the weekend. I would highly recommend him to any and all.

. From our first meeting, we knew that he would be the perfect fit for us and signed on to work with him almost immediately after getting coffee. Throughout the planning process and during our engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day Kurstin (and his awesome assistant on the day of) provided a perfect blend of direction for our large families and wedding parties while stepping back to let us soak in the moments. Tactically, Kurstin worked seamlessly with our planner, videographer, and other vendors to infuse his vast experience and perspective in a way that supported the team. He was flexible with his timing, showed up when and where we discussed, and even worked to effortlessly integrate our dog into the engagement shoot! His style is exactly what we were looking for - classic, elegant, and crisp. Above all else, Kurstin's photos transport us back to our special day and continuously help us re-experience both the moments we shared and those we missed in the commotion. We look forward to recommending Kurstin to all our friends in the area and working with him again in the future!

to learn what kind of photos we wanted, planned out a package within our budget, and helped make us more comfortable in front of the camera. He recommended fantastic spots to take engagement and wedding photos and delivered our photos super quick. I could not recommend him highly enough!

reat to work with. Throughout our engagement shoot and wedding day he did an amazing job of making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. He was able to capture all the best moments of our wedding day and the photos turned out better than I could ever imagine! I would absolutely recommend Kurstin to anyone planning a wedding!

nly at providing us with incredible results, but also working efficiently and professionally with my large family for the group photos. Kurstin was always willing to chat on the phone to go over my numerous questions, and his website is very user friendly to view all the photos. He is not the cheapest option but he is definitely the wedding vendor I felt super at ease hiring based on his experience and the photos of the other weddings he has worked on. In my opinion, he is worth every penny. We also did our engagement photos with him, so I immediately knew we had made the right choice once I saw those pictures. Thank you Kurstin!

grapher: 1) Quality, did the photos look good, were they well shot, and professionally edited, 2) Shot Selection, we noticed that different photographers focused on different shots, some more on the setting and ambiance, others more on the people and the interactions, 3) Value, what was the cost relative to other providers, 4) Service/professionalism, were they responsive on email, how did they approach the initial conversations, did they ask relevant questions. From our perspective, Kustin met all of our criteria. 1) We could see from his online albums that photos were high quality, our conviction was reinforced by a pre-wedding engagement photoshoot. 2) Kurstin's shot selection was something that initially drew us to him, and we loved the final photos that came out. 3) We thought Kurstin's prices were fair relative to other options we considered. 4) We were impressed by Kurstin's professionalism and service throughout the process, but it truly shined on our wedding day. Our schedule was fairly packed and at one point seemed to be running off schedule, it was Kurstin who ultimately directed traffic and ensured that all the shots we wanted for that day would be included. Without his local knowledge of the area and years of experience, there is no way we would have been able to squeeze in all the photos we wanted. It was a pleasure to work with Kurstin and his team, and I highly recommend his services.

ay were just as important as the "big picture" and we wanted someone who would capture all of that. We got married on 8/17/19 and already have our pictures back. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out! Kurstin was so easy to work with and we'll most definitely reach out to him again for family portraits once we start that chapter :)

suggestions about how we could get the best photos and worked with us and our day-of-coordinator to ensure that everything went seamlessly and that our vision was carried out. He truly cared about getting to know us and making sure that our photos reflected who we are as individuals and as a couple.

pher for our day. His portfolio is impressive as he is a highly versatile photographer. The one quality that impressed us most was that Kurstin was genuinely interested in his clients. This was the deciding factor for us. He made it a priority to take the time to know what we like to do and understand who we are as persons before the process so that he could best tell our story as he captured our personalities throughout our wedding day. Kurstin was understanding and flexible throughout the experience as things tend to change or form another direction. For both our wedding day and our engagement session Kurstin was so patient and informative giving us suggestions on locations around DC that fit the style and look I wanted in our photos (and he was SPOT ON for both!) He also was not hesitant to state what would and what would not work, which was much appreciated as he wants the best for his clients. That is not to say that if you really desire something, he will make certain it is superb. We appreciated how thorough his process was and how precise his wedding day timeline was as it covered all details, which certainly made me (the bride who just happened to be the wedding planner lol) very comfortable and relaxed that he was going to handle everything. We chose to add a second photographer as well, and he too was absolutely incredible they didn’t miss a beat! We have gotten endless compliments on how amazing our pictures were and we could not be happier with them! We give Kurstin and his team the highest regard and recommendation. We could not have chosen better. Thanks so much Kurstin!

t you even knowing he's there. My husband and I constantly get compliments on our wedding photos and our beautiful album . If you're debating whether to hire Kurstin, you should book him NOW- I promise you will NOT be disappointed in his work. He made sure to get every shot, and something unique he does is provide you with a pamphlet filled with beauty/make up/hair tips to ensure everything will photograph beautifully! He really thinks of everything ahead of time so you don't have to worry on your special day. If we could give him 10 stars, we would!

ests, feel completely at ease. He was able to capture all the emotions of our big day and we are so grateful that we can relive that day every time we look at our photos. We are beyond thrilled with our pictures and highly recommend him!

out. My husband and I were both really impressed with his eye for what light would make for a great photo, and I'm thrilled with how everything turned out. We definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and friendly photographer for your big day.

ties, artfully document the day, and make us feel comfortable in front of a camera. Kurstin exceeded all of our expectations. I'm a bit obsessed with our wedding photos and months later I still find myself looking back at them, remembering the day as if it was yesterday. Besides having an incredible artistic eye, Kurstin is very professional and a joy to work with. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends (I actually already have).

an amazing engagement session and wedding with him. We loved feeling like we were old friends throughout the whole process. Totally recommend him and his work!!
