    Linda was such a awesome photographer! I couldn't ask for anything more than what she did for us. We highly recommend her to anyone who wants fabulous portraits!

    Linda and Devin were so fantastic to have for engagement and wedding photography. They were a joy to have around, easy to work with, and their work is absolutely breathtaking. We are so happy to have chosen this duo, as they have captured our very special memories that will last us a lifetime. :)

    Linda is very personable and enthusiastic. Her bubbly personality really won us over! My husband and I have a sad history of taking horrible photos, so we were surprised that most of them were keepers. Linda gave a lot of direction, which was really good because we don't know how to pose! We also got the hoot shoot for the wedding day, and our guests really liked that.

    We chose Linda Kahle Studio to photograph our wedding mostly because we loved the style and richness of the photos in her portfolio. Not only we were proven right, but her service turned up to be much more than we bargained for!

    Linda and Devin photographed our wedding as well as the boat ride and rehearsal dinner the day before at Roche Harbor in July. All our guests loved them as they both put everyone right at ease. We wanted candids, posed photos, and some dramatic shots, and they nailed all three styles. They did it in a very professional manner, producing stunning results, but in such a friendly way that it almost felt like they weren't there as photographers. That's exactly what we were hoping to get!

    Now that the wedding is over and all we really have is the photos, what we love most is the pure joy that Linda and Devin managed to capture. It was such and wonderful, special day, and somehow that mood makes it through the photos. Friends sometimes mistake our posed shots for candids, they look that natural! Linda was just great at posing us and talking to us so that everyone relaxed into some beautiful shots.

    We were so eager for the finished images, and they were delivered within the agreed timeframe on a gorgeous website. Each image was beautifully processed. I’m not sure how she does it, but each photo radiates with life and color.

    We would recommend Linda Kahle Studio to anyone looking for a cheery and friendly team to expertly capture any special day. We wished we lived in the area so Linda could take all our future family portraits, too! Thank you Linda Kahle Studio!

    We were incredibly lucky to find the talented Linda in our search for wedding photographers. She's fun, upbeat, and works hard to make you feel comfortable. Throughout all of our interactions (mostly via email since we were planning our wedding from out of state), she was professional and incredibly responsive. The end product--our engagement and wedding photographs--are beautiful and exactly what we wanted. Even our guests were impressed with Linda and her pictures-- I've heard that a friend of a friend has hired Linda for her wedding.

    There are no words to properly express how amazing it was to work with Linda. She was professional, fun, creative and completely easy to work with. She made us feel completely at ease the entire wedding day. I knew she was getting the shots we wanted. I knew her work was good but when we saw the photos of our wedding I was completely blown away. They were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! They were crisp, full of color, and dynamic. Not to mention we got to see our blog post less than a week after the wedding. I would absolutely recommend Linda to anyone and everyone.

    Linda was very helpful through the whole wedding planning. She follows through on what she says she will do, she is very organized and helped us stay on track on the wedding day. She is always smiling and happy and has great ideas for photos. Before the wedding, we also had Linda do a family photo shoot and our engagement pictures and we have had the same quality of service each time. She takes beautiful pictures and I look forward to working with her in the future.

    Linda was great to work with the entire time from our engagement session through the wedding. We couldn't have asked for more and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. She did an excellent job making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was very helpful on our wedding day. The pictures turned out amazing and will help us remember our day forever.

    Our experience with Linda at High Rise Photography was outstanding! She went above and beyond for us from day one. One of the aspects I most value is that she was a calming presence through the whole process even when there were stresses introduced by other vendors. She also captured moments and details of the event that we were thinking "oh I wish we wouldn't have had her take a shot of that!" then voila! When she sent our pictures over she HAD TAKEN THE SHOTS!

    Her photo booth package is fantastic. It's hands down the best from my search for other vendors, my pricing/planning to do my own, and those I've seen/been a part of at other weddings and events. She brings in the props, gorgeous backdrops and makes sure all the guests are jumping in and having fun. The video she puts together of different moments from the photo booth is super fun, and a fantastic way to include your friends and family.

    I absolutely recommend her for any wedding, event or other special occasion!

    I chose Linda Kahle for a Boudoir session as I wanted some photos taken for my boyfriends birthday. I'm a pretty shy person, and wouldn't classify myself as being photogenic to say the least. Linda did an excellent job of making me feel comfortable in the situation. She was extremely professional, but at the same time was personable and down to earth allowing me to feel relaxed. Linda captured some truly amazing photos and I could not be more happy with the end product. The quality of her work is top notch and I can't wait to use her again in the future.

    Linda was a GREAT find for our laid-back wedding in July in Seattle. She was a fantastic value and provided great quality photos.

    Neither my husband or myself are good at being the center of attention, and neither of us really had a clue what we wanted in pictures, not to mention on your wedding day your brain is so jumbled you can't think. Linda was great at keeping us upbeat and had a very positive, fun attitude. I do suggest that you make a list of photos you want, and bring it with you. I knew I wanted goofy pictures, but it didn't occur to me to ask for regular, smiling, traditional pictures. Although I do like my pictures, I felt that they left a little bit to be desired.

    Linda Kahle Studio's reply:

    Hello Bride and Groom,

    I am deeply sorry that you feel a little un satisfied with your images. Please contact me and we can set up an additional portrait sessions at no charge and get the more traditional images that you are wanting.

    While it is true that my photographic style is more artistic and playful as pointed out during every consultation and engagement session, please always feel free to communicate everything with me. Even though your beautiful big day has past I am still here to provide good service and take care of your needs.

    Xoxo,
    Linda Kahle

    First, there are definite "pros" to choosing Linda:
    Linda was flexible with her costs as we had a Friday wedding and she was willing to work to meet our budget. Linda does provide incredibly quick turn around on her photos. Our engagement photos were available within two weeks and she gave us a "sneak preview" of some of our wedding photos within 24 hours which was so fun for us to look at on our honeymoon. She generally brought positive energy to the photos.

    However, on our wedding day, Linda had a technical issue with some of her equipment and sent Devin back to their studio to get replacements. The studio was a 4 hour round trip drive from our venue so Devin was not present for nearly half of our coverage time, including bride/groom photos, bridal party photos, family photos, and the ceremony. The main reason we went with Linda was because we desired strongly to have two photographers and this was not provided for half of our wedding.

    We understand that there was a technical issue and they needed back-up equipment, but our coverage suffered and we feel that there should have been some sort of refund, which we requested. Per our email conversation with Linda after our wedding, "no hours are specified or guaranteed for a 2nd shooter" and Devin is primarily there to "assist... as well as maintain/manage gear". We were disappointed to learn this as a second photographer is listed for “twice the memories” in both her photography packages and our contract.

    To frustrate us further, we had approximately 30 formal photos on our shot list- 13 of them were not completed.

    We wanted to write a review not out of spite (we quite liked Linda and Devin) but because both the two photographer coverage and shot list were not completed to our understanding of our contract.
