Katie was awesome from the very beginning. She was very responsive and easy to work with. I loved the timeline that she came up with and she helped ease some of my stress. My mom really liked her too. She provided great value and I truly feel l...

ike she was meant to be my photographer. I love the little gifts she gave us in the beginning and the extras that she provides. She really goes the extra mile. And her photos are just beautiful. I wasn't sure what drew me to her photos at first but I realized that her photos are just different than other photographers. I am one who loves all things unique so of course I would love her photos. I have only gotten the sneak peak photos from our wedding so far but I love all of them and can't wait to see the rest. Everyone else has loved them too. She did an amazing job. I highly recommend Katie for any wedding.
