Stout Photography

giving us direction during both shoots as we aren’t the most comfortable in front of the camera and she made us look amazing! She was wonderful! She was very responsive to all calls, texts, and emails. On our wedding day, Kara worked with her to take the photos of the groom and groomsmen and to be a second shooter! We were thrilled to be working with both of them. It was a pleasure to get to know both Jessica and Kara and rely on them for such an important part of our big day! They are so talented. They both exhibited extreme professionalism, efficiency, and attentiveness to us and the details! We cannot recommend Stout Studios enough! You won’t be disappointed relying on them capturing your big day!

most beautiful wedding photos that they had ever seen. We have seen our gorgeous sneak-peak photos, but are so excited to see all of the photos!

photos which came out beautifully as well. She gives great direction and is so helpful. We truly could not have asked for more, highly recommend!

was a joy to work with during the whole process . She was easy to communicate with, personable, understood our vision and overall a pleasure to work with! I LOVED having her by my side on the big day. From start to finish, she orchestrated poses, shots, angles, and captured all the intricate moments. Her work truly demonstrates the joy and passion she has for her work and her couples! HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommended Kara to be by your side on your special day.

f these moments without you even realizing they were taking a picture in the moment. I felt like I relived my wedding all over again when I saw my photos. They truly are amazing! Highly recommend!

two rainy days into a great experience with good luck photos- rainbows and dogs included. We love looking at our pictures and have gotten many compliments. Keep up the great work!!!

ith myself, the bride, taking photos of the bridesmaids and I while Kara focused on being with the groom and groomsmen. Both were able to capture the most amazing images that we will cherish forever. Jess and Kara are great at instructing on posing, which is something we needed as not having much professional photography experience in our pasts. They also have such an amazing sense of light and imagery that creates some of the most beautifully unique photos. They are such skilled photographers that I cannot recommend more. We also were able to do our engagement session with Jessica and couldn’t recommend this more as we got to know each other and be able to know what to expect on the big day. We were so delighted to have them as our photographers and help capture images of our big day. They also were credible at capturing the special moments during the ceremony without being in the way or a hinderance. They also did a phenomenal job at photographing guests during the reception portion of the wedding. We are so excited to see the rest of the photos but could not recommend Stout Studios enough!

re everyone's pictures to hers. I would never have considered myself or my husband as photogenic. Jessica easily provided us (and my rowdy bridal party) with the direction needed. I couldn't be happier with the results.Jessica and Kara captured the beauty of our wedding day so I can relive the best day forever. I can't thank them enough and I can't recommend Stout Studios enough.

ow beautiful our pictures would be until we got them back. We have received an overwhelming number of compliments on our photos from friends and family. SP took the time to determine what was important to us and exceeded expectations in capturing those moments and so much more. They were very professional and extremely responsive. We got married on June 6th, in the middle of the pandemic, and their flexibility and responsiveness were very much appreciated as we were dealing with various possible scenarios. They even proactively offered suggestions to make the most of the various scenarios we were working through. They were very easy and enjoyable to work with throughout the wedding day. They worked well with all of our other vendors and our entire family enjoyed working with them. We will absolutely be hiring them in the future whenever we are in need of professional photographers.

Studios and by booking them we literally hit the jackpot! Jess and Kara shot our wedding. They remained with the utmost professionalism with every obstacle thrown at them (Including angry store owners). They were able to find the perfect lighting to make a good photo extraordinary! Sun, clouds, or rain (and trust me we experienced them all) they made me look beautiful and captured incredible shots. I can’t wait for more milestones in life to use them again for photos!!!!

restrictions and we elected to have a smaller ceremony a couple of weeks before the original date. They were very flexible with scheduling and captured our day perfectly!

. I loved them. We've been married a little more than a year now, and I smile every time I look at our pictures. The day was captured perfectly. Hire them!! You won't regret it.

thing that really made Stout stand out to me is the breathtaking shots that capture so much of the sky and the vibe of the night you don’t want to ever forget. My husband and I having only been to one wedding ourselves (crazy right) were clueless and without ever meeting us before the big day because of all the pre planning sheets you fill out (for a planner like myself you will love this) they made everything go perfectly. I didn’t even have to remember what I said I wanted or pictured they had all my requests DOWN TO THE NAME on a sheet ready to go. I also had a very quick time schedule I wanted and they got so many photos of us and rushed us back to be with our guests as quick as they could. Throughout the night I didn’t even notice they were there and they got so many shots that really capture our day candidly. It was such a sweet team and I would recommend them to anyone. Stout Photography is so professional and they will make your day beautiful and go by with ease. The photos should be able to be taken off your plate on your big day and just worry about enjoying your celebration with your person and they make that possible!

ade sure we could sneak out after our first dance to get the prime sunset lighting! Kara and her team put me at ease the whole time, and made our photo shoots so much fun! They also captured our reception fabulously - it looks like the most fun party. I do wish my sunburn lines (ugh) would have been photoshopped out of some of our couple photos, but it's something we can (hopefully) fix, and only on a small handful. Definitely recommend their team for gorgeous shots, and a fun time!

terviewed several different candidates....but Jess and her team hand-down stood out above the rest! Here are a few of the many reasons that we would recommend Stout Studios for any event. 1) Flawless communication from day one. When I initially inquired about our wedding (over 14 months in advance), Jess responded to my email within 1 hour and was quick to set up in in-person meeting. After booking Jess, she kept us informed throughout the planning process about what to expect. Her communication was always timely and highly professional. Jess and Kara are also so much fun! We loved their personalities and we really felt like we could have fun with them during our shoots (engagement, wedding, and boudoir). They also managed to keep my now husband (who notoriously does not like taking pictures) engaged and happy throughout all the shoots! 2) Highly organized. Jess takes great care into not only delivering you beautiful images, but she also makes sure that she has the time to do so by being involved with and providing recommendations for your day-of timeline for the wedding. Jess set realistic expectations about how long to expect for different shots, creative portraits, etc and allowed us to plan our day accordingly. She also had a list of all the photos groupings for portraits that were important to me, and made sure to deliver on all of these important shots. Jess also keep the day MOVING! She is absolutely spectacular at directly your bridal party during portraits so that you are not wasting any time! This was important to us, becuase we didn't want our bridal party and families to felt like they spent the entire day taking pictures. Jess was able to have fun during our shoot, while also maintaining a high level of efficiency which was SO important to us! She also provides excellent direction during portraits so you don't stand there thinking "what am I supposed to do with my hands?!" Haha. But for real, she is a rock star at providing just enough direction while still delivering truly authentic emotion. 3) Absolutely beautiful photography. I knew right away from seeing both Jess and Kara's portfolios that I had to have them for our wedding day. Their work truly speaks for itself. I couldn't believe how many unique and beautiful pictures Jess delivered after our engagement shoot a year before our wedding. We were totally blown away! I just recieved my full wedding collection back from our wedding on March 15th and I am IN LOVE! Jess and Kara truly did not miss a single moment. Looking back on our pictures I can see that they truly captured the emotion of our wedding day. Every single shot that I wanted (plus a ton that I didn't even know I wanted!) were all there! Jess and Kara are so artistic and delivered absolutely gorgeous images. I could truly go on and on.....TJ and I both agree that Stout Studios was one of the best decisions we made in terms of vendors for our wedding day. THANK YOU!!!!

reliving the best day of my life through her amazing photos. I am so grateful for her, and we are constantly being complimented on how beautiful our wedding photos are, we are having a hard time figuring out which ones to display in our home! Kara's sweet personality and professionalism are the icing on the cake, she even went above and beyond to capture some of my getting ready moments even when we were behind schedule. Choosing stout photography was one of the best decisions I made in my wedding planning process:)

ll not regret it.

ed on our wedding day. We couldn’t be more pleased with how everything turned out!

was evident they knew what they were doing. The personal touches included in their services are really special. I knew from the moment I first talked to Jessica, we were in good hands.

and how happy I am with our photos. She made my wedding look like a magazine or Pinterest photo. Perfection.

omfortable and attractive (LOL - we typically are awkward in front of cameras). Jessica is so organized and keeps the wedding process easy. On the day of your wedding, these photographers take great care of you too. You're stressed and pulled into a million directions and they calm your mind, keep you focused on what important and take beautiful photos. Kara literally followed us with a fan when we were taking outside pictures. Not only did I have wind blown hair like a model, it felt good too. This team is the best you are going to find so quit wasting your time searching for someone else so you can focus on the million other things you can do for your wedding. Lots of love for the Stout Team!!
