Kate and Mike were an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. First of all, we could not be happier with our photos, they captured our day SO perfectly. The reason we chose them in the first place was we did not want our photos to be too posed - we are not anywhere close to being models and did not want our photos to feel like we were modeling. They made the entire process feel so natural and not awkward at all. Secondly, we just had so much fun working with them in general. From our engagement photos, to our wedding planning meeting, to our wedding itself, it was so fun chatting with them and I honestly sometimes forgot that we were supposed to be taking photos! Overall we are so happy we went with Oak and Pine!!
Kate and Mike were incredible! From the very beginning they were both so friendly. Kate is so organized and on top of everything. On our wedding day they managed to keep everyone on schedule and captured so many breathtaking photos. Having a good photographer is something you don’t want to cheap out on and booking with oak & pine was definitely worth every penny! I’m so thankful that we chose Kate and Mike to shoot our wedding, they made it much more beautiful and memorable!! Book these two for your wedding, you won’t be disappointed!!!
Such an amazing couple with an amazing gift of photography! They exceeded every expectation for beautiful photography of my day. Thank you!
Choosing Oak + Pine as our wedding photographers was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. We absolutely loved working with Kate and Mike. They are professional, courteous, and (most importantly) easygoing. Their attention to detail and dedication to careful planning helped make our wedding day run like clockwork with no undue stress. We had a fair amount of family photos we wanted (some of which involved tricky family situations...). Kate and Mike’s planning expertise made the entire process smooth and efficient (they took exactly the amount of time we expected!) and the photos are excellent. We are generally camera-shy, but Kate and Mike’s laid-back personalities and kindness got us out of our shells pretty quickly, and the resulting photos are the best we’ve ever seen of ourselves. They were even able to get some amazing photos of our camera-avoidant family members. We couldn’t be happier with the photos that Kate and Mike took at our wedding and we’ll cherish them for the rest of our lives. Finding the right photographer(s) for your wedding can be an extremely stressful process, but with Oak + Pine you don’t need to look any further!
Kate and Mike are the best. They were so professional, patient and helpful. Kate was easy to communicate with and very organized. It was pouring the day of the wedding but they helped us make the best of it. The photos I've seen so far are absolutely incredible! More than we could have hoped for - I can't wait to see the rest!
Kate and Mike were wonderful to work with. They are true professionals who know how to make all of the photography feel smooth and seamless. I can't recommend them enough. I'm not planning on getting married ever again, but if I were to, I'd rehire Kate and Mike in a heartbeat. And of course, the pictures themselves are amazing. We have gotten so many complements from friends and family about how great the pictures are. One of the things they did so well was capture small moments that bring us right back to the day. Photography was the best investment we made for our wedding and I am so happy we'll have these pictures to look back on for years and years.
Kate & Mike are two people who will truly take the time and care about you and your special day or days. Can't say enough about Oak & Pine Amazing People and an Amazing Quality Picture Everytime!
If you’ve taken even the slightest glimpse at their site, then you know the quality of their pictures is breathtaking. My husband and I cannot express into words the pictures and memories they captured on our Wedding Day, and lets not forget to mention they are AMAZING to work with!!! Kate literally helped hold my dress so I could soak my feet and take a much needed break and washed off a few marks on my dress- now that is above and beyond✨ I cannot tell you how many people asked who I used once I posted photos. Book them now, you won’t regret it! They’re the best in the area hands down :)
From a future bride who’s obsessed with their work and had one hell of a time choosing vendors, this was a no brainer! Thank me later xo
Kate & Mike have been absolutely amazing through the engagement and wedding photo process. My husband and I don’t take pictures often and don’t necessarily like being the center of attention. Kate & Mike helped us feel at ease. They provided a thorough day of timeline as a starting point for me to organize all other day of items and made great suggestions for photos. We weren’t really sure where to take photographs at the venue but they helped pick out some amazing spots day of. Their work is creative and shows great experience. I 100% will be referring them to friends and family as well as using them in the future.
Kate did such an amazing job with our wedding photos. She is professional and quick to respond to questions. There are so many beautiful moments captured it’s hard to pick a favorite! Oak and Pine are awesome!
Working with Kate and Mike was wonderful from beginning to end. There are so many great photographers out there but we wanted to find one that we really gelled with on a more personal level, because neither my husband or I like getting our photo taken much, we prefer a candid/photojournalist type of approach. Oak and Pine was super responsive as soon as I reached out and all along the process. Kate was the perfect balance of directing us to some degree and capturing our natural actions the rest of the way. Both Kate and Mike are really friendly but also not intense. They are really professional but not too serious. We just felt so comfortable with them. They offer a really reasonably priced engagement shoot that you can add to your wedding package and I'm really glad we took that opportunity. We got great photos as well as some experience working with them before the wedding. On the day of, I barely noticed them but they got tons of pictures of every single moment, including plenty of natural and candid stuff. The photos are beautiful and high quality. Overall they were just awesome. I highly recommend them!
Where to begin? My husband and I had the pleasure of having Kate and Matt as our photographers for our wedding on 05/19/2018. I was scrolling obsessively through the Knot, trying to find "the one" who I knew could capture my vision for my wedding. When I saw Oak+Pine's photos on the Knot and their website, I instantly knew. Kate and Matt were instrumental to our wedding day. The pictures that I received are genuinely mind-boggling in their beauty, and the skill that was involved in taking and editing them is undeniable. Every single person who sees our photos is speechless. But perhaps even more importantly, Kate and Matt were not just photographers, they became our friends. My whole bridal party enjoyed spending time with them as well. They helped steer the ship and helped me to craft our timeline, which is actually a pretty daunting task, but they have it down to a science. I LOVED their teamwork with our other vendors, including our day-of coordinator Christina. (I hope they can work together in the future, because they were a dream). Kate was also fiercely protective of me as the bride, going well above and beyond what anyone would expect of a photographer. I had some embarrassing "family drama" which involved some pretty blatant meanness, and she was not only supportive, but she also crafted a plan well ahead of time to help contain/mitigate/handle any potential issues. I was so nervous to mention anything, but Kate and Matt totally put me at ease. When the inappropriate behavior began, Kate instantly jumped in to nip it in the bud, and made sure I was ok. I can't stress enough how wonderful that was. Being a bride(even a very organized one) is so stressful, and there is so much pressure. To know that your vendors truly, genuinely care about you and are invested in your day is invaluable. When you choose Oak + Pine, you aren't just a number, or even just a client. Seriously, go right now to their site, look through their stunning portfolio. Then go grab coffee with them and chat. You won't regret it! .....Thank you again Kate and Matt!
If you are reading this review and at this page for oak + P\pine - reach out to book them right now! After a bad photography experience at a family wedding, my husband and I knew our photographer was a top priority for us and we couldn't have made a better decision than working with Oak + Pine! Kate & Mike were amazing to work with and they understood what we were asking for even when we couldn't articulate well. They captured our day beautifully and we will be able to cherish our memories forever. I can't say enough great things about oak + pine! We were so lucky to they were available for our wedding and I recommend them to anyone in need of a perfect photographer!
I can't say enough good things about Kate! She did our engagement shoot and wedding on 4/28/18 and both were fantastic! We are not the most photogenic couple, and we have a hard time being serious, but Kate pulled out the best of both of us! She was so easy to work with and had excellent communication throughout the process. Her photos are STUNNING and I would recommend her for literally and event that you're trying to capture.
There are too many great things to say about Kate and Mike / Greybird Galleries in one post. Our pictures and experience were beyond expectation. Besides marrying my husband and sharing the day with our friends and family, photography was the most important part to me. Kate and Mike went above and beyond expectation for both our engagement and wedding photos. For those of you planning your own wedding - Kate is a logistical timeline genius. Logistics were one of the most stressful parts of planning my own wedding. The meeting with them before our wedding was so helpful and made the day go smoothly and get all the pictures we wanted and then some. Their photo booth is awesome. The pictures are high quality and we not only have physical copies but a link to share. Well worth it! Kate and Mike being a husband and wife team just get it. The way they work together is inspiring and they are all around just great people. They are simply the best. The service and product they provide is worth every penny and then some. I️ love that they provide a keepsake that we will be able to share with friends and family for years to come.
I don't know where to begin. Kate is nothing short of amazing! She is super creative but also really organized (which I greatly appreciated since I was planning our wedding out of state). She's easy to get ahold of/responds quickly to emails (she even put together our timeline 9 months prior to our date! Yes, she's that good!).
Mike and her have a great working relationship and made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera (I actually forgot they were there sometimes, they did a really great job capturing our wedding day without making it feel stressful or rushed).
Picking Kate and Mike is an easy choice :)
I had such a wonderful experience working with Kate. From the beginning, Kate was so easy and enjoyable to work with. She communicated well and was also friendly and professional. Kate took photos at a family celebration for our wedding - so not a typical wedding set-up. She had to be even more flexible and do a lot of improvising. Kate's talent really shined - she took the most beautiful photos inside and outdoors, posed pictures, candids, stills, etc. She was even able to get some adorable pictures of 5 children, 3 and under, who weren't particularly happy that evening. She absolutely did a fantastic job, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family. Kate captured some very special memories, and we are so grateful.
Kate and Mike were wonderful. We were hesitant to do an engagement photo session because we didn't know if we needed so many photos but we are so glad that we did. Not only were the photos amazing and something we will treasure forever, it also made us so much more comfortable on the day of the wedding. We knew that we could trust Kate and Mike to capture exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend them for any occasion!
Kate and Mike are the best. They are organized, punctual, and incredibly talented. We receive many compliments on our engagement and wedding photos and their ability to capture the moment takes us back to our wedding day each time we look at our photos. Can not recommend this team enough!
Kate is absolutely amazing! Our pictures look so perfect and are exactly what we wanted. We love how creative Kate is with her work and she captured so many amazing moments for us. Not only are they great at what they do, but they are also awesome people to have around on your big day. Kate and Mike make an excellent team, and we would use them again in a heartbeat!
Greybird did our wedding this summer, plus we live in Texas but got married in Ohio, they were super easy to work with long distance and they did a fantastic job the day of the wedding. We are very happy with all our photos & memories. I would hire them again!
As a parent, on your daughters wedding day, you want everything to be perfect for them. Mike and Kate fulfilled this wish with their photography! They were so easy going and always in the right place for those great photos, capturing special moments between everyone. They truly made the day incredible!
Awesome team of two! Thanks again!!
Kate and Mike were such a pleasure to work with - both are incredibly personable and professional. They made us feel at ease and we knew right away that we wanted them to photograph our special day. We had a fairly good idea of what we wanted in our pictures, but Kate had such wonderful ideas of additional ways to capture various moments of the wedding ceremony and our reception. They did a great job of keeping us on time to ensure that there was an opportunity to photograph each special moment that we wanted throughout the day. Our wedding pictures were gorgeous...even better than we had hoped for. The challenge will be picking which photos to print! Such a positive experience...would recommend to anyone.
Kate & Mike were absolutely great on our wedding day & the photos are stunning. They did a perfect job of capturing the candid moments of the evening & made everything very low stress.
We couldn't have asked for better photographers. They are so laid back and easy to work with. Our wedding pictures are some of the most original, beautiful shots I've seen. We can't believe they are ours! Could not recommend them enough.
Kate and Mike are incredible photographers and captured our big day perfectly. We honestly didn't have one bad picture. Kate was great at making sure we stayed on schedule. They were both so creative in using different areas of our hotel and venue for backdrops. I can't recommend them enough.
We worked with Kate & Mike for our wedding photos a couple of weeks ago. They were absolutely wonderful to work with! Not only is Kate organized, professional and talented- but she and Mike were just easy to talk to and made us feel comfortable along the way. We had a large wedding with lots of family portraits- Kate and Mike kept their cool while trying to organize the large group. Kate had a smile on her face even when things got stressful! Even my guests commented about their professionalism and friendly personalities. I had a bit of an issue with another photobooth vendor just weeks before the wedding...Kate came to my rescue just in the nick of time. I ended up using Greybird's photo booth. We are beyond amazed at how beautiful our photobooth pictures turned out. We can't wait to see our wedding photos! Thanks so much, Kate & Mike! We will keep spreading the word about your amazing work!!! :)
Kate and Mike are wonderful to work with! Just the preview photo of our engagement shoot has me over the moon excited for how great my wedding photos are going to be! And if their work wasn't enough incentive to choose them (seriously, choose them!) they are one of the only photographers in the Central Ohio area to actually include a tangible item in their wedding package!
Kate and Mike are wonderful! They truly take the time to get to know each of their clients and take phenomenal photos! If you're looking for a wedding photographer, you can 100% trust them to provide an incredible experience. I promise that when your engagement/wedding photos are done, you'll walk away with two new friends!
Kate is wonderful to work with - we are not very good models, but our pictures turned out AMAZING because she made us feel so comfortable. Other photographers I looked at seemed to use the same shot list for every wedding, but Mike and Kate really focus on capturing the emotion and the magic of the day. They were also extremely organized and "managed" us leading up to and during the big day, which is something I came to appreciate juggling all these different vendors and deadlines. We also got our photos back in a very reasonable time frame as promised! Working with them was a pleasure and the photos we have from our engagement shoot and wedding day are absolutely priceless - one of the best planning decisions I made.
I have nothing bad to say about Greybird Galleries. I only had the pleasure of working with Kate and I felt she did an outstanding job! She was great at putting us all at ease and was able to capture the essence of the day perfectly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer!
Kate and Mike are fantastic! I can't thank them enough for their work on our engagement session and our wedding photos. My husband and I are not photogenic and are uncomfortable in front of a camera. Kate and Mike made us feel so comfortable and were able to capture such beautiful images we could not be more impressed or happier with their work. I refer every person I know to them. Thank you Kate and Mike for everything and we can't wait to call you for another photo session soon!
My new husband and I loved working with Kate and Mike! They are true professionals, while still making you feel completely comfortable and at ease. Our engagement pictures were stunning and I cannot wait to see the pictures from our wedding! Kate was very organized on the wedding day, which made family photos quick and easy. I highly recommend Greybird Galleries and will be using them again in the future!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this duo! From the moment we decided to book with Greybird Galleries, we knew we were in good hands. Photos were one of the few things I did not stress about one bit during the whole wedding process. Kate and Mike made the day go so smoothly. I can't stress how important it is to have a good plan on the day of the wedding to make sure you get all of your photos done, and Kate's attention to detail and organization were on point! We were on a time crunch with what we wanted to get done, and somehow Kate and Mike managed to make it work and we have some amazing pictures to show for it. I would highly recommend Greybird galleries to anyone looking for a photographer! Thank you both so much for a fantastic (stress free) day!
I wish I could give Kate and Mike 10 stars! The first time I met Kate we completely clicked and I knew she would be the perfect person to help me through this wedding process. She came to our first meeting with a wedding timeline and walked through an example of the day with us which completely impressed me. Then through the planning process she gave me tips, examples and calmed me down when I was stressing. By the time the wedding came I felt like I had a close friend as my photographer and not just someone I was paying to take photos. Throughout the day/night Kate & Mike captured the exact weird goofiness that is me & my husband. Then when we had a medical emergency at the wedding they stayed an extra hour so I could compose myself for a sneak away. Then when the photos came out I was blown away! They captured every beautiful moment. The photos were so stunning and they captured more action shots which I LOVE! I cannot say enough about Greybird Galleries and how amazing they are at their jobs. You would be nuts to hire anyone else!
From our initials email correspondence Greybird Galleries has blown me away with their professionalism. Kate is such an asset to any bride, her organization and attention to detail makes the experience a breeze. Working as a team, Kate and Mike are excellent photographers. I had some concerns about specific angles being flattering and they knew exactly how to capture the image, making me feel flawless. Our engagement session felt like we were shooting with old friends. During our wedding, they were efficient and relaxed. I could not have asked for better experience. The best part? Our photos from both the engagement session and our wedding are FLAWLESS. They captured our spirit and love. We could not be happier. ❤️
Kate and Mike are simply the best. Coming from an extremely outgoing bride and an extremely introverted groom I will say he was more impatient about getting our pictures back than I was! You cannot do any better. I'm telling you, do not look anywhere else! They are so laid back and easy going but do amazing work. They treated us like friends from the very beginning.
We love you Kate and Mike!!

Greybird Galleries has exceeded my expectations and the wedding hasn't even happened yet! We received the link to our engagement session photos a few days ago and I can't stop looking at them! Kate and Mike are amazing and so very talented. They were more than willing to travel a little bit to our beloved Alma Mater in Athens, Ohio (Go Bobcats) for our engagement photos. Despite our nerves, Kate and Mike were able to make the whole process seem so easy. We really enjoyed our session and getting to know these 2 before our big day. Since sharing the photos with family and friends, we have received countless compliments and inquiries about our photographer. We are so excited for the big day and to see what these 2 can do!
THE BEST! You don't even need to read anymore-- just book! Worth every penny!! I used Kate and Mike for both our engagement photos and wedding photos. The attention to detail is amazing. They make you feel so special and you will have so much fun with them!! Kate and Mike helped get our timeline down for the wedding and went over all details ahead of time which really helped me finish the wedding planning process. On such a stressful day as a wedding I was so happy we did an engagement shoot as an icebreaker. It really helps to get to know them and for them to get to know you to figure out what you like the best. All of our photos are amazing and I am beyond grateful! Our grandma recently passed away and we are so happy they got great photos of the family and special candid's of grandparents. Just the best!
From the moment I saw Greybird Galleries' photos (on The Knot, actually!), I knew they had the style and skill we wanted for our wedding. Kate and Mike were so much fun and total pros to work with-- from getting all the shots we wanted and making us feel comfortable during our engagement photos to keeping us on schedule on our wedding day and not minding when our family members accosted them for unscheduled photos. :)
Kate was a dream during the wedding-planning process, always there to answer questions and provide advice on the wedding-day schedule, bridal party photo locations and everything else. She always put me at ease and was an extra assurance that everything would run smoothly on the day.
Now that it's all over, we are so happy with our photos and the way that every one tells a story. Kate and Mike captured so many amazing memories (candid moments, goofy faces and artistic shots) from our wedding day and we can't recommend them enough!
I definitely recommend Greybird Galleries to anyone looking for the perfect way to capture the memories of their wedding. Kate and Mike were the photographers at my brothers wedding. The photos they shot are some of the most beautiful I've ever seen. The staged photos, where we all lined up for shots, seemed unique and fun. But, my favorite photos were the candid shots. They were able to capture some of the most beautiful little moments between my brother and his wife, as well as our family celebrating together. I really love Kate's style and I feel like my brother and sister in-law didn't just get pictures of their wedding, they got beautiful artwork.
Although I loved all of my wedding vendors, if I had to recommend just one it would be Greybird Galleries. Kate and Mike are not only fabulous photographers but are also fabulous people. From my first meeting with Kate, I felt 100% comfortable trusting her with capturing our wedding, and I couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out. During our engagement photo session, we had so much fun, and Kate and Mike made us feel immensely comfortable. We met a few weeks before the wedding to plan out the photos we wanted, and that meeting made both my husband and I feel even more confident in our choice of Greybird Galleries. Kate and Mike listened to what we wanted and offered their professional opinions regarding our timeline and other issues. When our wedding day came, Kate and Mike were absolutely amazing. They were calm and professional, provided direction when needed, and captured so many moments. We recently received our photos and are absolutely in love with them. They are stunning, unique, and, most importantly, feel so personal to who we are. I cannot rave enough about Greybird, and I don't think you could make a better decision when choosing a photographer.
Greybird Galleries did a phenomenal job with our wedding and also our engagement pictures. That are flexible and very knowledgeable. Kate even helped me with my wedding timeline. I cannot say enough good things about these too.
The photos they took at my son and daughter in law's beach wedding were incredible. And they were very kind and gracious to travel as well. We could not have hoped for better photos of this memorable event!
Kate and Mike did a fabulous job with our wedding photography and engagement photos. They turned out truly amazing!! We were the first wedding to use their new state of the art photobooth. It defiantly was the hit of the party and everyone loved our custom photo strip that Kate designed. I would highly recommend this company for both photography and use of their high quality photobooth!!!
Kate and Mike were amazing, to say the least! My husband and I are definitely a little camera shy, and Kate made us feel so comfortable so that it wasn't a problem. I was most interested in getting a lot of candid shots during our wedding rather than posed. Kate and Mike delivered! When we look through our wedding photos, we can relive all the moments we enjoyed most. They were so easy to work with, and we recommend them for all our friends/family!
Kate and Mike are the absolute BEST! I was an out of town bride from Colorado and had to rely on referrals to pick most of my vendors for my August wedding. I could not have been more fortunate to have had such amazing photographers for my wedding day! Kate is professional, organized, very responsive and also super sweet! My wedding photos turned out AMAZING and I have received SO MANY compliments on them! These two are hands-down some of the best in the business! Thanks Kate & Mike for making my Disney Fairytale wedding day extra magical!
Kate was wonderful. She kept us moving yet I never felt rushed. As an out of town MOB, I didn't meet her until day of the wedding. As the day went along I knew
my daughter had made an excellent choice.!
Kate was such a pleasure to work with. From the first time we met to discuss details I could tell she was wildly organized and professional. She handled our wedding day (complete with crazy family) with patience and grace. For us, photography was the most important financial investment on our wedding day. Pictures will last longer than some memories and I'm so glad I had Kate there to help us capture those moments. The pictures we have seen from our wedding day so far have been incredible and I would expect nothing less from such a talented person. I highly recommend Greybird Galleries.
Greybird Galleries was an excellent choice for our wedding photography. Our experience with them from the engagement photos throughout the wedding on September 5 was outstanding. From the initial consultation on I could tell they were organized and knew what they were doing. I loved how well they worked together and how efficient they were so no time was wasted during each session. They were professional yet very personalized. I highly recommend Greybird Galleries to anyone looking for any type of photography session. I know you will not be disappointed.
I could not be any happier with our decision to work with Greybird Galleries for our wedding photography. Kate and Mike are the dynamic duo: Professional, creative and collaborative with great attention to detail. They capture the ordinary wedding moment and make it feel so personal and extraordinary. Their collection tells a beautiful story. I am a Type-A planner, so I really appreciated Kate always being one step ahead of me with organization and planning so that I could enjoy the special time. We met a few weeks prior to our September 5 wedding to plan out a timeline as well as the exact formal photos we would want (highly recommend!). I really appreciated that Kate took the time to walk through our list after my husband and I opted to skip a few on our wedding day to ensure we would not regret anything. I am confident that Greybird Galleries will exceed your expectations should you have the opportunity to work with them.
Mike and Kate were awesome to work with! The pictures from our wedding day turned out great and we love their creative spin on traditional wedding photography. They made the entire experience easy and natural and perfectly captured the personalities of our friends and family. Highly recommend!!!
Kate and Mike are a married couple that own this business and double-team their photo sessions which is an added bonus! Their personalities are great it was very easy to be comfortable around them. I will be using them for every professional photo session in the future that I need and I would highly recommend them to others. They specialize in candid moments which is what we preferred and their ability to capture the perfect shot is undeniably exquisite.
AMAZING! The first time I had the pleasure of meeting Mike and Kate, I was a bridesmaid for two of my best friends from High School - Alex and Becci Shields. From the moment I met the pair of them, I knew their goal was to capture the love of Becci and Alex in a very special, unique, and truly beautiful way. They were so personable and they wanted to create the best environment for the bridal party and the newlyweds-and that is exactly what they did. A wedding can be so stressful for everyone involved, but Kate and Mike made it fun. They took shots and created shots that were not only stunning but also really reflected Becci and Alex. They had taken the time to know their clients and wanted their personalities to come out in their pictures! They did this for the whole wedding party, making each of us feel beautiful or handsome - and even took our suggestions for shots and more. They listened and they really were invested in every moment they were there. I was so impressed. I was even more blown away once I saw the pictures in print - and was so happy for my friends to have these beautiful memories to save and keep forever and to share with their family and friends. I was so proud to be apart of that day, and will always have these beautiful pictures to remember it by. I HIGH recommend using these two, you will be so truly impressed by the love and honesty they can capture. They both have incredible eyes for a beautiful shot! I was so inspired, that a year later I reached out to Kate for a specialized 1940s big band shoot, and couldn't have been more happy about my own shoot. PLEASE recommend them to your friends and family, you wont regret it!
Kate and Mike are an absolutely amazing team. We could not be happier with our Engagement and Wedding Photos. (They were even published in the Knot Magazine this year!) They are incredibly caring and patient professionals, and exceeded every expectation we had. – (And my Fiancé’s were set pretty high ; ) They could not have done a better job and were absolutely wonderful to work with. After speaking with so many photographer before our big day, we could not be more pleased we chose Kate, Mike and Greybird Galleries. I would highly recommend speaking with them before you choose anyone else. Thanks again!
I had the privilege of meeting Kate and Mike on June 21st while they photographed a wedding I was in. It was apparent from the beginning that they really take pride in their photos and the moments being captured. They allowed us all to relax, be ourselves, and have fun throughout the day which made every photo realistic and memorable. Not to mention, their photos are fantastic! In fact, I loved Kate and Mike's style of photos so much that I reached out to them recently after getting engaged. I highly recommend this husband and wife duo if your looking for amazing photos and genuine/friendly photographers!!
We got married in August and Greybird Galleries exceeded our expectations! Kate and Mike are a married couple that let you enjoy your wedding. Each of our photos told our story, whether it was capturing my girls dancing while getting ready or seeing the photo of my husband laughing with his oldest friend. They weren't chasing us around with a camera but capturing our memories. Kate and Mike put a lot of time into getting to know who we are and that was portrayed in our photos. We also loved getting to know the both of them and can't imagine working with any other photographer in the future. Their photos are incredible, and working with them is the icing on the cake!
I am beyond happy with the amazing work this couple does! We just got our engagement photos done, and are looking forward to our fall wedding next year!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kate and Mike! They are full of creative ideas, attentive to their clients, and put in a staggering amount of time and effort to get the best pictures possible! Their candid and photo journalistic style is my absolute favorite, but their range is so wide that they come to a shoot able to pull off whatever style suits you best! So fun, and easy to work with, they were full of helpful tips and suggestions that made our photos absolutely perfect!
I love their photography, and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for excellent photos!
I just got married this past Friday night (10.24.14) and I know I made the best choice hiring Kate and Mike. I have a (now) husband who absolutely HATES taking photos. He actually begged me to cancel our engagement photos and we did. Kate allowed us to move that hour of time to our ceremony/wedding, which was so nice of her!
Let me just say this, there were several things about my wedding day that were unexpected and a little stressful, it wasn't until Kate arrived that I felt better about things! She was so positive, calm and made me feel so much better and more relaxed! She captured stunning photos of all the DIY details I worked so hard on, took me outside as the sun was setting and took one of the most gorgeous pictures of myself I had ever seen, and captured moments between Sam and I that I could have only wished for. Now all I keep thinking is, when can I hire her again...
Last, as I mentioned above I hired Kate and Mike. They are just the most adorable couple that work fabulously together. They took pictures of everything I wanted, they were creative, and always made sure they had the best shot with the best light. I would recommend them to anyone and I CAN NOT wait to see all my photos!! THANKS AGAIN TO BOTH OF YOU!
My husband and I are very pleased with GG work! He was less than enthused about hiring a professional photographer as he was not a big fan of being photographed. In almost every picture I take of him, he is making a goofy face. But after only a few minutes in our engagement session we both felt very comfortable with Kate and forgot about the camera. We love the final work! He is even hand making picture frames to make a picture wall of our engagement and wedding photos! On our wedding day she was timely and so accommodating. Somehow she was always around to catch important moments but we didn't feel like the photography was the focus of our day. We wanted more natural shots, to capture the feeling and tell the story of our wedding day and she delivered just that!. We are so pleased on every level with GG. I recommended them to my best friend and she has booked them for her wedding. Will continue to sing GG praises!
