Skyewater Photo and Film

unique elopement photos. She was great with all of her communications and worked hard both before and after our wedding whether it was scoping out locations, communicating about what was going on in the area (we are from out of state), or her super fast delivery of our sneak peeks, wedding video, and final photos. I would highly recommend her for any one who wants stunning photos taken by a talented and kind artist.

o truly *creates* videos. When she said she would be our videographer, we were thrilled. Kaitlyn was fantastic to work with on our elopement day (July 2020). She spent hours traipsing through the mountains with us and was incredibly helpful as well as completely unobtrusive. Her ability to work “in the background” of our elopement, which didn’t have any guests, made her final video product a beautiful surprise. EVERYONE who watches our elopement video loves it. We cry at the same part every time, as do many of our family members and friends. Kaitlyn provided us with a full, uncut recording of our vows as well as a highlight reel of our entire elopement adventure, which perfectly captures the *spirit* of the day. If our budget had allowed, we would have commissioned an even longer video, and it would have been worth every extra penny. If you are on the fence about hiring a videographer for your wedding day, stop thinking about it and hire Kaitlyn. Her video product is gorgeous, her comportment is professional, and her delivery of the final product is on-schedule. She was a pleasure to work with, and we fully recommend her.

and out of tune with us. We did a 4-hour package and were very pleased with the number of photos and the stupendous quality we received. We started hiking at 4am and she was there without complaint waiting for us at the trailhead. She did an excellent job of calming our nerves before the ceremony and at the start of the shoot. There where so many angles of the ceremony we thought she was 6 places at once! Kaitlyn did an amazing job of allowing us to be natural for the camera while still giving us suggestions on how to act and pose for the shots she knew we wanted. She communicated greatly with us on what we expected and desired. We never felt rushed or hurried through the entire day. The walk seemed a naturally good pace with well thought out photos to which we could stop and take at any spot we wanted without complaint. I couldn't recommend her enough. She is sweet and bubbly and puts you at ease immediately. She bid 8 weeks to get the photos done and we got a magnificent gallery in 4. Maybe we were just special :)

t confident and comfortable with everything going on. I call myself "unphotogentic" all the time & she was able to capture gorgeous photos that didnt look staged at all. She made sure me and my husband felt relaxed and had fun the entire time. 10/10 stars.

ess off trying to plan an elopement/destination wedding!

s a few months before the wedding and we did a small engagement shoot to practice and get more familiar with each other. Her fun little games she had us do in certain poses made us laugh and giggle, which made for such cute pictures. At our wedding, she had us laughing the whole time we were taking portrait photos because we were enjoying ourselves so much. She truly did an amazing job and the pictures are absolutely incredible. I never feel pretty and I am usually always unhappy with how I look in pictures, but her photographs captured our happiness so perfectly that I can't help but stare at them and smile. The candid pictures of people at the reception are so great, too. She captured beautiful moments that we can now look back on forever. I seriously cannot explain how amazing Kaitlyn is. Do not hesitate to choose her as your photographer!!! She is amazing!!

mmend over and over using Katogenic!

ing. Kaitlyn also communicated every part of the process effortlessly. From the moment I first emailed her until after our day, she was always there with every question, idea or concern I had and took time to respond. She is a true artist and I am so happy I was able to have her capture our day.

an I could have ever dreamed of. She took photos of all of our 200 guests, wonderful photos of our wedding party, and the most beautiful shots of my husband and me from our first look to our dancing together at the very end of the night. Her photos were fun, romantic, and captured every aspect of the big day. When we look back on the album she created, my husband and I feel like we are reliving the day, but she was never obvious when getting her shots which we were amazed about. We would recommend Kaitlyn and Katogenic photography to anyone and look forward to working with her again with every big milestone of our lives together.

process stress-free and fun. We had the best time, in the best place, with the best photographer.

d me probably 5 minutes later ready to talk! I sadly couldn't talk because 1. No other photographer had been so prompt in responding so I was not even close to being prepared with any questions and 2. I was at work because again I didn't think anyone was going to get back to me so soon! We set up a call for that evening and we chatted over FaceTime and right then and there I was ready to hire her and work with her. It was comfortable talking to her so I knew working with her would be the same. Any random, late night questions I asked, she always responded! She sent me links and any info I asked for, for any location I was curious about. She made us feel like we could do whatever our heart's desired. She would help us find a way! Then when I had some anxiety about what the weather would be like the day of the wedding, she reassured me that everything would be fine! The big day comes and working with Kaitlyn wasn't even like working. It was like hanging out with a friend who just so happened to be taking our pictures! We were worried about feeling awkward posing but it was so fun and easy with her and her vision for the shots was absolutely incredible! We shared some mimosas and laughs and made it a day that I really and truly loved every second of! I have yet to stop staring at our photos since we got them! I cried looking at them because she just did such an amazing job at capturing the essence of the day and truly enhances the natural beauty in every shot. We said that the pictures wouldn't do the scenery or wedding day justice but the pictures are UNREAL! We will definitely be using Kaitlyn for other events and occasions that we will have in the future! :) HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Use her and you will have the greatest photos to look back on!

sked what we were looking for and right off was giving suggestions of places. She provided vendor lists, websites if we needed permits, warning about traffic for the time frame we were there. She had done previous shoots at this location and i fell in love with it. It was a little cloudy an rain a bit day of but the pictures were amazing with the clouds and mountains in the background. Our pictures are stunning and we will treasure them for a lifetime.

lyn was professional and super patient with us as the timeline kept changing throughout our wedding day (what's a wedding without some mishaps) but she took the timing with grace and was able to capture everything happening! When it came to our photos, it was noticeable that Kaitlyn took her time going through all of them and making sure they came out to perfection! She gave us so many that I can't even decide which are my favorites! Also, Kaitlyn is amazing at working angles and lighting! For our engagement photos, the spot we chose was super crowded, but she made it work as if no one else was there! All in all, Kaitlyn is amazing and artistic with her photography, as well as amazing as an individual! She's super sweet and always wanting to make sure you get the best out of your experience! Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed!

shots! If you’re getting married in a beautiful place and love light and landscape in your photos she’s the girl for you! Highly recommend.

hat I have ever seen! She was not only able to get beautiful photos of the two of us but the mountains and background came through incredibly in all of her photos. Not only were the photos amazing but she made the experienced so much fun and made us feel special. The reception photos were also very well done. The dancefloor photos managed to show how much fun everyone was having and she seems to have a knack for catching everyone with the perfect smile. Thank you so much Kaitlyn! We highly recommend her photography skills.

r. She is adventurous and so intuitive, not only in capturing the most beautiful and intimate images on your big day, but in helping you figure out everything you need to make your day as successful and smooth as possible. Communicating with her is a breeze and her feedback is above and beyond. As a bride who experienced some nerves about being photographed, she stepped up and really became a friend, guiding me through the whole process and helping me calm my nerves. Yet all of this is compounded tenfold by what we received after the wedding - our beautiful photographs! They were stunning and more like vivid memories of our experiences and emotions of the day. From portraits, to fun shots, to reception and decor photos, all of them were more than I could have ever asked for. I hope to work with Kaitlyn in the future and I highly recommend Katogenic Photography for your wedding photography needs.

m and cold weather on top of the mountain pass to take our photos. I highly recommend Katogenic Photography!

a videographer because he didn't want to feel like he was "on camera" throughout the day and feel uncomfortable. My favorite feedback that I got from many of our guests when we shared our video was, "we didn't even realize you had a videographer!" Kaitlyn was stealthy in getting excellent footage while never being intrusive into our day. We are so pleased with the video we received from Kaitlyn and I am so happy we made the decision to hire a videographer. It is such an easy thing to cut from the wedding budget, but the day flies by so fast and I am so happy to have the special moments caught on video.

he time the wedding came around, we were so comfortable with her and everything went incredibly smoothly. She had very fast turnaround and we are THRILLED with the pictures! Thank you Kaitlyn!

and timeline expectations. Kaitlyn photographed our elopement in Colorado and was very helpful as we hiked up hills to get the perfect shot. I sent her some ideas about what we were thinking for portraits and she blew us out of the water with results better than we expected. Everyone who has seen our pictures is in awe and we have Kaitlyn to thank, she helped us share this very special day with all of our family and friends in such an amazing way.

camera on us at all. Kaitlyn's ability to be right in the action of the day but also blend seamlessly into the background to capture the magic as it happened is simply astounding. As if the exquisite wedding photos were not enough, Kaitlyn was also a dream to work with, from consult to finish - kind, patient, adventurous, and willing to go above and beyond on every step of our journey. She has the most positive, uplifting energy about her and we felt completely at ease in her capable hands (and through her lens!). Though this is the last time we'll be getting married ;) it's definitely not the last time we'll be working with Kaitlyn. Absolutely do not hesitate to hire this incredible artist and person! It's been a privilege to get to know her and we're honored to have worked with her. When we're old and gray it'll be absolutely incredible to have Kaitlyn's stunning work to remember our beautiful day by. (But, let's be real. We'll be looking at these photos ALL THE TIME between now and then!) - Allison & Cam married 01.01.18, Waitsfield, Vermont P.S. Even though we've been married for about a year and a half, we have friends and family who comment ALL THE TIME on how amazing our wedding photos are when we see them. Do you want that awesomeness too? Book Katogenic Photography now!

ccommodating with all our wants and needs from our budgetary constraints to our visions, and more! What we loved the most about the compositions of her photos are the genuine candid moments. When my husband and I looked back at our photos, it was as if we were back at our wedding. One final thing that I think that is important (especially to LGBTQ+ couples out there), Kaitlyn is a true ally and supporter.
