My wife and I have the incredible pleasure of working with Kaitlyn, and no words can describe how lucky we were to work with someone like her! When Kaitlyn advertises she specializ...es in an elopement style wedding photography and videography, you need to understand that she is willing to go the distance to ensure your special day will be captured in the best way possible. No kidding, she and her coworker Rebecca flew across the country to a remote, uninhabited island with us to be a part of our special day. Both Kaitlyn and Rebecca were incredibly easy to get along with and they are the type of people you trust after meeting with them just once. They both have an incredible vision and endless creativity when it comes to capturing those special moments.
Leading up to our wedding, Kaitlyn was incredibly organized and attentive to any and all questions that we had. She helped us develop a plan for when and where to take photos, and the order with whom to get photos with. This was extremely valuable because it ultimately helped us generate a schedule and rid the stress of possibly missing something that we wanted to capture. All of these things gave us a lot of confidence early on, further ensuring that we picked the right person to help capture one of the happiest days in our lives.
When it came to the wedding day, both Kaitlyn and Rebecca were very professional and extremely helpful. While they have a talent for taking some amazing photos and videos, they also have the invaluable skill of keeping things on track and also knowing how to divert people to keep things on track. Most people have no clue how valuable that can be in a photographer, especially if you have family and friends who don't stop talking, like to cause drama, and/or are easily distracted. (I won’t share the details here, but Kaitlyn and Rebecca you probably recall the situations and we just want to thank you again. It did not go unnoticed!)
The underwater photography shoot in the ocean was nothing but incredible! As difficult as it was battling the current, waves, and tide in full wedding attire (and for Kaitlyn with her camera gear), Kaitlyn was able to create some of the coolest photos I have ever seen! While my wife and I are somewhat used to swimming in the ocean with sharks and stingrays around us, Kaitlyn and Rebecca did not hesitate to jump in the water with us to capture that once in a lifetime moment for us…well maybe a little hesitation from Rebecca with the sharks haha. Regardless, this just goes to show that they were comfortable around us, willing to try new things, and that they truly wanted to capture something special for us. We didn’t expect them to do this or be comfortable with this, but we are sure glad they did.
Again, we cannot thank Kaitlyn and Rebecca enough for everything they did. The photos were incredible and everything that we had asked for (and more). The video, my goodness, was by far our favorite piece of it all. Kaitlyn has a true talent when it comes to video editing and creating an amazing and memorable story. If you have made it this far into this review, we cannot recommend this enough, you NEED to do the videography package if you book with Kaitlyn. It may be a little more extra, but it is worth every penny!
Aside from that, don’t be shy in reaching out, ask all the questions you want, and if you do end up booking with Kaitlyn be sure to constantly thank her for the life long memories she helped capture for you.
