Run, do not walk, and book Kate immediately! Kate came recommended to us by another vendor in the wedding industry. After our first call with Kate, I knew she was the one to photograph our wedding. We had an amazing phone call where we connecte...
d on all levels, and she really understood our vision for our wedding photos. We first met Kate at our engagement shoot. Both my now husband, and I were nervous in front of the camera and did not feel comfortable. Kate immediately sensed this and was able to capture so many special moments. Kate has a way of turning “walk towards me” or “whisper something in his ear” into beautiful moments that are captured by her camera. That is exactly what happened on our wedding day. Kate and her assistant showed up and wow did she nail it. We just got our sneak peek back and I am absolutely floored by the photos she took. It poured on our wedding day and Kate captured the most gorgeous outdoor portraits. You could not tell at all it was raining. She is so creative and good at what she does. I cannot wait to get the rest of our photos because I am truly in awe with what I have seen so far. Kate does not just do a bunch of family portraits. She captures moments that are so special. The pictures from my husband’s dance with his mother and the pictures from our ceremony were so beautifully captured. You can feel the love in every photo all thanks to Kate. Thank you, Kate, for being such a huge part of our special day. You are incredible, and I would recommend OffBeet to anyone looking for photography of a special milestone moment.

once again I was put at such ease knowing she would have everything taken care of. On the wedding day she was an amazing addition to my day. Her personality is just as awesome as her work (which I find to be very important since you spend so much time with your photographer on your wedding day). Finally, of course, the pictures... they are breathtaking and we couldn't have dreamed of better. I love her approach of capturing natural and real moments. She did not overly pose us or make us feel uncomfortable at all. Instead she just captured the happiness of the day in the most perfect way. We also received our video teaser and I must have watched it 500 times! It still makes me cry because it captures everything so beautifully. I am so thankful for the amazing experience working with Off Beet!

I can't even begin to describe how amazing Kate and the entire Off Beet team is. Kate immediately put us at ease, and helped us SO MUCH during the wedding weekend -- some of our favorite moments were the moments when we got to go take pictures ...

There was a moment where we had to decide whether to go with our rain plan and do our ceremony indoors, and she gave us just the push we needed to keep it outside (which was the right choice!!!). She was such a calming presence the entire time and made sure that we got the most perfect photos (of us and our families, which we were worried about!). The photos came out perfect - so vibrant and joyful and captured the essence of the day for us. Forever grateful to Kate and the team!

We are truly obsessed with Kate and the Off BEET team and can not recommend them enough to anyone in the market for a wedding day photographer!!! Kate is SO much fun to be around and brought such an incredible energy to our entire wedding day. ...
She was able to take charge and made sure that everyone was where they needed to be when they needed to be there - which is not easy when you have 11 bridesmaids and 13 groomsmen. Kate is a true artist and the photos we received in our sneak peak are seriously amazing - we can't wait to see the rest of the album. Every photo is super natural and captures so many emotions, which is exactly what the goal was for our wedding photos. Kate and her team absolutely exceeded all of our expectations and hiring her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

around for the day! Our photos came out AMAZING and we’re delivered to us incredibly fast. We had our entire album one month from the wedding which was absolutely amazing! Our pre wedding call with Kate was super informative and detailed I didn’t worry about a thing on the day of the wedding! Nina kept us all on time even slightly ahead of schedule which made the entire morning very stress free! When speaking with Denny and Kate up front I just felt the amazing professionalism of the entire company. Denny was so cool and easy to speak with and very, very responsive! Denny does the edits in the videography. So far we only have our teaser video which is amazing and every person we show comments on the quality of the video. When looking at friends videos compared to my teaser I can really see the quality you are given at offbeet. Overall the best vendor we could have booked for our wedding! I’d choose OffBeet all over again! You won’t be disappointed 😁

aphy, and wedding videography. From the start to finish, our experience with Off BEET was amazing. We worked with the owner, Kate, to help schedule everything and she was so helpful and friendly throughout the entire process. When we had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID, Kate & Denny were the only vendor to reach out to us proactively to help us try to reschedule which we really appreciated during a stressful time. We used Megan as our photographer for both our engagement photos and as our primary photographer on our wedding day. We chose Megan because her portfolio stood out to us on the Off BEET website for her rawness and candid shots. We are so happy we selected her – she is an amazing photographer, but also, she was so easy to work with. My husband is super awkward with photos, but she made us feel relaxed and comfortable during all our sessions. She travelled to Hoboken for our engagement photos and captured some perfect shots even though we were caught in a torrential downpour. On the day of, Megan was on-time and kept us on schedule to ensure we got all the photos we wanted. Even when I (the bride) started getting a little tired of photos later in the evening and tried to cut some of the photos, Megan asked me “are you going to regret not taking those photos?”, which made me stop and realize I would, so we took them! I just appreciated her realness and how she kept us grounded when we got caught up in the craziness of the day. Our second photographer on our wedding day was John, and he spent most of the day with the groom and the groomsmen and did an awesome job. He kept the guys laughing which ended up with some amazing photos. For videography, we had Joe and Matt on the day of, and Denny, the owner, did our editing. Videography was something that my husband and I were debating not having at the wedding and we are so happy that we decided to move forward with having a videographer capture our special day. Joe and Matt were so fun to work with and they captured moments that we didn’t get to experience ourselves which we loved, and the editing? WOW. Denny absolutely crushed it. We are so pleased with our wedding teaser, video, and the toast video. It’s high quality and captured ALL the best moments of our special day. We could watch it over and over again. We absolutely LOVED everything we got from Off BEET. Photos, our wedding album, our parent albums, our videos all of it was *chef’s kiss*. On top of all this, they delivered everything on time according to the timeline they provide us. Overall, if we had to do our big day over, we would choose Off BEET every single time.

could tell she knew what she was doing and that she really cared. When we were talking through a rain plan (which we thankfully did not have to execute) she even offered to have me call her a few days before the wedding if rain was in the forecast so she could give me a pep talk! We spent our wedding day with Katie as our lead and John as our second and they brought such a fun but calming and relaxed energy to the day - they truly were the perfect duo! We opted out of an engagement shoot to save some money so the first day we actually met Katie and John was on our wedding day, and they couldn't have made it easier for us! We also connected before the big day to go over any shots we definitely wanted, which they made sure to capture. Katie was able to lower my stress levels and John and was able to help my husband let loose and have fun while they were shooting. They managed the timeline and our large wedding party well, even wrangling family members in for family photos before leaving the Church. We got incredible photos with everyone throughout the day and they captured moments that I couldn't have imagined. I am SO happy to have these memories from the OffBEET team - thank you!!!

hen researching vendors, having both photography and videography was a key element in deciding on a company to parter with. Following was obviously the aesthetic and eye test with consideration to consistency throughout their portfolio. The other remaining, important factors include the comfort and friendliness, or relationship, you gather after a few conversations along with the ultimate de facto, the financial burden. There are endless ways in which you can remember your wedding, and we opted to “splurge” a bit and go over our initial expectations of cost or budget for photos and video. There were very few companies that “checked the boxes” for us, which ultimately led us to Off BEET. While our package was a bit more expensive than we anticipated, we received a full 12 hours of photo and video footage, an exceptionally professional team and helpful planning process, and an incredible collection of memories. A few experiences that stood out included the timely responsiveness to our questions or feedback, Kate’s knowledge about wedding and wedding photography when we were between options, her calmness and resourcefulness when we thought we were going to get rained out and how meticulous and creative she was with everything from flat lay shots to our ceremony. We want to thank Kate and the Off BEET team for being such a great partner, particularly through a more than stressful year of uncertainty. Their photos and videos speak for themselves.

Their service through the pandemic was second to none - they worked tirelessly, not only with me, but from my understanding SO many other couples to make new dates and INSANELY short timelines work seamlessly. We had a very tight budget and Kate worked with us to help us get everything we wanted within our budget - I couldn't believe that we were able to make it work! Kate also got to know us as a couple and matched our photographer to our personalities and the look we were trying to capture. Our photographer was Megan and I just want her to capture every happy moment in my life - forever! She fit right into our vibe for that day and made the day go according to plan. Prior to the big day, Kate helped work out our timeline and took away every anxiety I had about scheduling issues that day. Joe was our videographer and as uncomfortable as I thought I would be kissing 100000x's in front of a camera, he just kept the mood light and laid back - absolutely effortless! He was an extreme professional and captured amazing footage. We received our pictures and video is record time for Off Beet being backed up due to the booking-chaos COVID caused, and the result is just absolutely unbelievable. Our photos were GORGEOUS, and I truly cannot get through our wedding video without crying happy thoughts. From traditional poses, to personality shots - the video and photos have it all. I would recommend Off Beet over and over to every single couple!!

s aspect worked well and wow, did they knock it out of the park! Everyone watching at home said they felt as though they were actually there due to the clarity of the video and quality of the sound. If this is something you are considering for your day I would highly suggest utilizing their services here. While you're at it, just go with them for everything! Having the same photo/video team enabled them to work so seamlessly together and although the actual details of our wedding became a bit complicated due to COVID (postponement, change of format, etc.) they rolled with all of the punches and adapted to the plans as they unfolded. We had the pleasure of meeting Kate on our original wedding weekend when we arranged to do our engagement photos. She just has this way of making you feel comfortable, calm and at ease which is extremely helpful and important on your wedding day, especially if you don't love having your picture taken. We've gotten back a sneak peek of photos so far and they are everything we hoped for and more. Same goes for the teaser video by Denny which is AMAZING and got us so excited for the full video in a couple more months!! Bottom line - this is a professional, down to earth, FANTASTIC team and one you can trust to capture every moment of your wedding day in a perfect way. After the day has come and gone, the photos/videos are all we have to relive it, so this is a big decision. Go with Off Beet and you will be forever grateful!

ver it and that just didn’t cut it for us. Once we found Denny’s website, his was FULL of fun little videos about himself, why he loves to DJ, and he had real footage of weddings he’s done! We could just tell that he was a really good guy & from the couple of videos of real weddings, a great DJ! So boom. Made a meeting to meet in person. And then, he was even cooler. The second we walked in, we all totally vibed out and stayed for quite a while just having fun getting to know each other. He’d ask what kind of music we liked, we’d mention a song and then he’d immediately hit us with another song in that genre that of course, we were fans of. And we were talkin old school blues, Motown, classic rock, punk rock. So he obviously knew music very well, and that’s what you want in a DJ! Another big reason we chose Denny was because he live mixes during weddings by feeling out your guests and the crowd. How cool is that? He said something to us that really stuck with us- “you’ll have guests there that are 8 years old up to 80 years old. I will make sure ALL of them have a blast.” My husband and I have been to weddings where the old crowd doesn’t get up much because the music is too focused on modern day music or vice versa. He ensured us he’d get everybody dancing and that’s exactly what he did. Our dance floor was packed; truly packed, the whole night. Guests came up to us at the very beginning of cocktail hour (the start of the day's celebrations) saying “THIS DJ IS SO AWESOME!!!” We knew :) He made all the announcements very seamlessly, there was absolutely no “overtalking” like some DJ’s we’ve all seen lol, and he’s just a naturally funny, super nice guy so it felt like he was also a friend and guest to our special day, who just happened to be creating sick beats for us to dance the night away to. We even asked if he could time a song for a certain moment during our ceremony & he did it effortlessly. If you want to dance a lot & have your guests dance a lot and feel totally stress free & taken care of throughout both the process of planning your wedding and on the actual wedding day - Denny is your man.

Denny has such an excellent process, from the very beginning we were able to log onto a website and personalize our wedding, I was able to list the songs I wanted to hear, songs I didn't want to hear and everything in between.

I chose Off Beet for multiple reasons. When we met Kate she was extremely friendly and easy to talk to, it had felt like I had run into a friend from the past. Although Kate wasn’t available the day of the wedding, Nina was. After looking through Kate and Nina’s portfolios they both seemed to connect more with couples and everything seemed more natural and at ease which is what we were looking for. During the wedding that’s exactly how it felt.

I knew from the second I found Kate's work online that I had to have her photograph our April 2016 wedding. Her work was exactly what I was looking for: plenty of relaxed, candid photos that really captured every moment. I wanted a photographer...
who would naturally catch moments, not one that would try to create artificial ones. We met with Kate and absolutely loved her. We hired her and Nina for our wedding day, as well as an engagement shoot with Kate. After the engagement shoot we were thrilled with our choice. She's very easy to spend the day with- which is very important since you'll be spending a lot of time together on one of the most memorable days of your life. On our wedding day, her and Nina arrived early and we're both extremely professional and focused the whole day. After the "first look" photos and all of the family shots, they both managed to blend in very quietly at the reception to the point where I barely noticed they were there. We had so many guests comment on how great they were because they weren't intrusive or aggressive with their shots, yet managed to capture SO many amazing shots. We received our digital prints in just 3 weeks and were amazed at all of the photos! So many great shots that I didn't realize they were taking. I love that almost every guest was captured in at least one picture. Communication was easy the entire time- Kate is quick to respond to emails and answers any questions fully. She's extremely professional and runs a great company. We can't wait to meet with her to design our album! Thank you to Kate and Nina for our beautiful photos and an amazing experience!

red it. The main reason was no matter what, I always felt moved by the pictures I saw. Kate captures moments in weddings that feel so real that you are able to relive the day of. The day of our wedding Kate and her team showed up early and were ready to go. From the moment she got there she was able to have a clear vision of what she wanted and needed to do to capture all the details of our day. I never felt as though she was in the way (often we forgot she was there), and when she was there she guided us in such a natural way that I didn’t feel like I was posing in each picture. My husband and I recently received a preview of the pictures and they felt surreal to see. She captured the moment and the feelings that we felt and it allowed us to revisit our wedding day in a way that we will be able to do for years to come. Kate and her team also took a great interest in learning all the cultural traditions involved in an Indian wedding to make sure they captured all the moments that were significant and important to us and our families. We were told from the beginning that one of our most important vendors would be our photographer and we couldn’t be more delighted that we made the best decision with going with Kate. I would highly recommend her, not only for her amazing talent, but also her professionalism, the ability she has to put you at ease, and the seamless process that she gave us leading up until the day of our wedding. A huge thanks to Kate and her team for giving us exactly what we wanted and more when capturing our big day!
