Polar Square Designs

in love with her photography style and feel and they were exactly what we were looking for, it felt very classic and timeless. We signed a contract wtih Kate that included our engagement session ~6 months prior to our wedding and having a second shooter on our wedding day. When we met with Kate on a morning in Providence to do our engagment shoot, she was warm and welcoming and made us feel at such ease taking photos as two people who are not typically seeking the attention of a camera. She gave us the direction we needed, helped us feel comfortable and we had a wonderful time which added to the anticipation of our wedding day. On the day we knew we could trust her and when we recieved our photos that was solidified. All the details were captured, all the moments throughout the day and people most important to us were in the pictures. She managed to get all of our family and bridal party portriats (from an obnoxiously excessive list) done ahead of our ceremony and reception which allowed us to enjoy the rest of the evening unhindered. Some of the incredibly creative shots she captured using our venue were beyond what we could've expected. Everyone we've shared the photos with have raved about them and we are thrilled to have them all to look back on and remember the day by. Kate is a superstar, she captured one of the most important days of our lives and we ill always be incredible grateful to her for doing so!

ails of the day were captured beautifully. Kate also had gotten us our photos SO quickly!! I was just blown away by everything and have gorgeous photos to look back on.

rounded. She has an amazing ability to capture joy, love, and feeling through her photos. We were excited to spend more time with her on our day after our engagement session due to her fun, calming, and genuine presence. We knew our photos would be great but are still in disbelief how truly they captured us, our family, and friends. Not only are the photos amazing, but Kate was able to get us sneak peeks and our full gallery in an incredibly short amount of time. If you are thinking of booking Polar Square, we cannot recommend them enough!

husband and I had so many large group shots we wanted to squeeze in, and we had a tight timeline. Not only did Polar Square Designs do an awesome job with our photos, but they also gave us some awesome vendor recommendations which helped our wedding planning process run so smoothly. Kate took the most amazing shots and was a pleasure to work with. We are so pleased with all of our pictures. My husband and I would highly recommend working with her.

erything beautifully and found all of the best lighting. I can't recommend her services enough and hope to utilize her for future photography needs!!

had the edited photos back to us the week of our event and they are incredible. We're so grateful to have such beautiful memories of our wedding day that we can cherish forever. 10/10 would recommend Kate to anyone looking for a professional, skilled and easy to work with photographer!

specially in public) but Kate made us feel totally comfortable on our engagement shoot at the beach and we ended up with some incredible shots. The turnaround time to get our whole gallery back was so quick. Leading up to our wedding, Kate’s questionnaire helped us nail down what shots we really wanted and the timeline she came up with was very helpful! On our wedding day, Kate and the second shooter Allison worked together so well and made sure we got all the shots we wanted! Everything flowed perfect and they did an amazing job capturing our best day ever! We received a bunch of “sneak peek” images less than 24 hours after our wedding and they’re all so good! Kate’s creativity and skill are evident in the results. I highly recommend Polar Square Designs!

th before our wedding my gut told me to look into that company and reviews and needless to say, I was shopping for a new photographer. Im so so glad we did! Kate was an absolute blessing! She was able to accomdate the last minute booking and put together a customized package for us all within 24 hours of our first phone call. Her and the second photographer got so many phenomenal shots on the day of that we are going to treasure together forever!! This isn't even mention how they both literally blended in and it didnt even feel like we were getting photographed during our reception. During portaits it was so easy and we were so comfortable with her that it made taking pictures an absolute breeze. Kate is an absolute DREAM and I will be recommending her for years to come. Thank you Kate!

ing so easy and enjoyable. She’s incredibly approachable and made us feel comfortable being ourselves in front of the camera. Kate’s extensive experience really showed in the amazing photos she delivered. Our portrait photos and family photos are incredible. Kate put everyone, including us, at ease and made sure we didn’t miss out on our party for too long. The candid shots captured our friends and family perfectly. We were also thrilled with how quickly she got the pictures back to us. Despite the rain on our big day, Kate was perfectly prepared. She kept a close eye on the weather radar and had everything timed to perfection, ensuring we got a beautiful window to capture our outdoor photos. Our engagement session was equally delightful, even in the rain. Kate’s upbeat attitude and fun ideas made it a memorable experience and prepared us for being in front of the camera on the big day! If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also makes the process smooth and fun, Kate at Polar Square Design is the one to go with!

ught my eye, and after a wonderful phone conversation we knew we had found our wedding photographer. We met Kate in person when she took our engagement photos, and she truly blew us away. She has incredible talent and took a simple background and made the shots look like they belonged in a magazine. She also sent us sneak peaks of the shoot that same day. I was so excited for our wedding day just because I knew without a doubt that we would love the photographs that Kate and her second photographer took. She did not disappoint. These images are truly amazing, and we are so grateful for Kate. She is also a superhuman and sent us our entire edited wedding gallery within eight days of the wedding. Incredible!! Throughout the entire process, Kate was always in communication with us, and she would respond to my questions or asks immediately. As you can clearly see, I cannot say enough good things about Kate Taylor/Polar Square Designs.

otos and delivered the full albums within 2 days of each event (some of my friends have waited nearly seven months after their wedding to get their albums back from other photographers!). Not only is she fast, but her photos are beautiful and it's clear she is passionate about her work. She knows the right way to kiss to look good on photos, the best way to dip, how the sun will hit at each and every angle - and we are obsessed with legit every single photo on our album. We will absolutely be hiring Kate for any other photo needs in the future!

fast (within a week of each event) and we are very happy with how our photos came out!

om start to finish, Kate was perfect! We got some amazing shots, including a repost of Kate’s photos on my wedding dress designer’s Instagram page. My whole bridal party and family, as well as the venue, all complimented Kate and enjoyed working with her as well. We could not recommend a photographer more for your wedding, or any other special occasion or event. We specifically picked Kate knowing we could continue a relationship with her for future occasions, not just for our wedding. Thank you Kate!

nal photographer canceled to do our wedding because of covid, we connected with Kate, thankfully. She was more than happy to do our backyard wedding and has since done maternity photos, and family photos as well. My wife usually plans all the photo sessions and I’m just along for the ride but Kate is the best. She’s professional, friendly, and skilled. One of the best photographers around.

is wonderful and has a great team!

on as we put our inquiry in and communicated via email often throughout the process. The value in what she offers is outstanding not only in the quality of the photos but also in the way that through her experience she is able to command control of her space on the day of the event, going with the flow of the schedule and keeping everyone involved accountable so she can get the shots we needed. We had so much fun and laughed and smiled our way through every encounter with Kate and she truly understood our vision and worked tirelessly to help us get the perfect photos. I highly recommend Polar Square Designs, you won’t find anyone better than Kate in this area.

cares. I will hire her again and again for anything I need photographs for. She’s well worth it. Her work is flawless. We went in clueless and she made magic. I have so many great shots we can’t decide which ones to hang up! So many amazing options! You won’t be disappointed hiring Polar Square Designs!

. We're thrilled with how our photos turned out, and she played a huge part in making our day fun and run smoothly.

extremely organized and helped us figure out many details, which created the schedule and vision for the day. Kate guided us through our photo moments in an enjoyable way that allowed us to be at ease and genuinely have fun which radiates in each photo. Kate's ability to capture candid moments of pure joy between ourselves, our family, friends, NYYC members and vendors, will never cease to amaze us as we reflect on our day. Kate's eye for design produced stunning images of all our details, showcasing all the care and love that went into each one. We are so grateful for the opportunity to have worked with Kate from Polar Square Designs and we could not have asked for a more wonderful, thoughtful and talented photographer to be by our side!

alented, fun, approachable.

loved all our photos and can't wait to see the final printed album! I will for sure keep her in mind for any future photography needs.

. There is no doubt in my mind that I will be using Kate for all my photography needs going forward she is the ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!

that we all were in unison. (Meanwhile i take a video of my kid just to screenshot that perfect moment cause i cant time anything for a photo!) We had time to do lots of different locations and felt very comfortable with her. The way she edits is stunning as well!

us understand the timeline of the day and fit in both our wedding and engagement shoot to a busy summer. She made us feel comfortable in what can be an awkward event when you’re not used to getting your picture taken. Kate captured beautiful settings, family members, and pictures of us we’ll have forever. She blended into the group, put everyone at ease, and delivered photos quicker than I ever expected (day after the engagement photos and 3 days after the wedding!!). 10/10 would recommend!!!

ght moment, not just between the couple but with their guests as well. She also is especially talented at capturing the natural beauty of the setting and has a really good eye for lighting. Plus, we love her adventurous spirit and willingness to climb rocks to get the best shots. Besides her incredible talent, she did an amazing job of making us feel heard and supported and completely comfortable throughout. She captured everything we asked for and more! Plus, she’s a dog lover! What more could you want! Thanks for the stunning photos, Kate!!!

is so laid back, and made all photos feel natural rather than posed. She has such an eye for getting gorgeous shots with perfect lighting. Cannot recommend her enough! Don’t hesitate to book her if you want the best in the business!!

d insanely talented all at once. I can't get over how gorgeous the photos she took are I felt like she really listened to what we wanted too and then delivered on it. I have nothing but good things to say and would absolutely recommend her!

albums ready for us within days and the pictures came out absolutely beautiful both times!

so smoothly and knew exactly what to do to help. It was such a relief to have her there to guide us. We could not have been happier with our beautiful photos and our entire experience with Kate. I would recommend her to everyone!

nd of course the pandemic. Well we got engaged on June 28th and decided to marry on July 10th! Everything fell into place and Kate, fortunately, was available. We would have been happy with a couple nice pictures, what we received was amazing! Kate was so easy to work with and we were looking at pictures in a matter of a day or two. All of our pictures looked very natural and were totally "us"...thank you Kate for chronically our very special day!!

quare Designs. We couldn’t have asked for better pictures to remember our special days.

ng because of Covid. She photographed our microwedding and was so wonderful to work with. All of the photos she took turned out gorgeous, and we can’t wait to have her shoot our bigger ceremony and reception this fall!

asy to work with throughout this entire process. Our engagement photos were incredible, and Kate was kind enough to drive all the way to Boston from RI to shoot in the locations we wanted. And for our wedding date, Kate had every detail down to a tee - she had coordinated getting photos at a lighthouse in advance, had scoped out great photo shots at our venue, and knew the exact locations and times to shoot to get the best lighting. The end result was stunning photos all around, from our couples shots to our getting ready photos, to the ceremony and finally the reception. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer, and HIGHLY recommend Kate to everyone!! In fact, we are so excited to be working with Kate again for future family events - starting with my sister's wedding next month!

ul things about Kate & my whole experience with her. She’s so good at what she does and is extremely professional! She was able to make my husband & I feel so comfortable taking photos! The photos came out AMAZING!! Thank for you capturing our special day with stunning, breathtaking photos!

oing the special day.

e our go-to photographer for all of life's events!

e out beautiful! I would 100% have her take photos for me again!

setting and she did. She not only captured the island but our relationship and our friends and family in the most perfect way. She is wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend her! Thank you Kate!

l in their own skin. I have been lucky enough for her to capture some amazing moments in my life and I wouldn't have thought to have anyone else orchestrate our engagement shoot. This girl will climb mountains and slippery rocks to get that perfect shot that you will cherish forever and she will do it with a smile on her face and without any hesitation. She is honest and go above and beyond every time she works with someone. I highly recommend Kate for all of your photography needs (and graphic design).

ot and a rock the dress shoot in the summer after our wedding. Every time she manages to nail exactly what my vision was and her turnaround time on the images is so fast. She captured every single important moment at my wedding and I was left with hundreds of beautiful images that will last a lifetime. After the wedding, she and I had an idea to do a shoot in my dress on my horse and she knew exactly what I was hoping for and made sure we got the shot. I can't speak more highly of Kate's talent, professionalism and how comfortable she makes everyone involved.

looking for! She even got some pictures of our puppy (who at the time was pretty rambunctious 😂). Kate will make you feel at ease and keep you laughing. I’d absolutely recommend her!

th Kate, from our initial FaceTime consultation (including cameo by her adorable children) to the day of our elopement, was hassle-free and as easy as getting photographed on your special day can be. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

f work is stunning. A doozy of a summer thunderstorm blew through during our outdoor ceremony bringing thunder, 44 mph wind gusts and hail. Kate was extraordinarily calm in a tense situation and assured me that the photos from the day would be beautiful. She did not disappoint. Kate has an amazing eye for capturing candid moments and the personalities of the individuals in her shots. The pure magic and joy of the day radiates in every single one of our wedding photographs. Kate's second shooter, Irena Mendel, was fabulous as well. They kept us laughing the entire time, even during the stress of a storm. We could not be happier with our photos and we recommend Kate highly. Thank you, Kate!!
