From our initial consultation to the final images, Kara’s professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail were evident every step of the way. She brings a unique blend of warmth, enthusiasm, and expertise to her work, making the entire experience enjoyable and seamless. For our engagement session, Kara helped us bring our vision to life at a local farm that holds special meaning for us. The resulting photos, taken amidst vibrant flower fields, were stunning and captured the essence of our relationship perfectly.

On our wedding day, Kara and her husband impressed our families and guests with their professionalism, yet approachable personalities. They expertly captured every important moment, from the first look to the ceremony, speeches, and dances, along with numerous beautiful candid shots and family portraits. Kara’s attention to detail was unparalleled, and she beautifully documented the entire day. Additionally, she went above and beyond by creating digital content for our social media, which was a thoughtful touch.

We are absolutely thrilled with our decision to choose Kara Abbey Photography and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a talented, dedicated photographer to capture their engagement and wedding day. Kara’s genuine care for her clients and her exceptional work make her a standout choice.

I can’t even begin to describe how wonderful our experience with Kara was from start to finish. She was always on the ball with everything, whether it was answering any of the questions we had, making a timeline for us, keeping everything running smoothly picture wise on the day of and even getting the pictures ready for us to review very quickly. Kara was just so lovely to have around at our wedding and was just an absolute joy to work with. She made us all feel so at ease and was very friendly while also making sure to capture lots of get images. We didn’t have to wait long for the final images and when we received them we couldn’t believe how beautiful they were. We are so thankful for the photos she took of our special day! If you are looking for a wedding photographer, you could not possibly do better than Kara!

I had the pleasure of hiring Kara Abbey as our photographer for our wedding July, 2023. I cannot recommend Kara enough. She captured every single detail of our wedding and reception. I loved it how she was with the me for the entire day. Kara had a warm and friendly demeanor that made everything run smoothly. From our first consultation to the delivery of our wedding photos, Kara was very well organized. Kara went above and beyond and we have perfect wedding photos that capture our special day!

I learned of Kara through a family member (I was a bridesmaid in the wedding) who had also used her as a wedding photographer. I just remember her being so sweet and helpful the day of, and when I saw my cousin’s pictures they were BEAUTIFUL! I was elated to find out that Kara was available for our big day when the time to discuss wedding vendors when our wedding came around!

Throughout the whole process Kara was beyond kind and helpful. She was extremely thorough, timely, and professional in the planning stages leading up to our wedding in order to ensure that Michael and I got everything we wanted out of our wedding photos and the process on the day of the wedding went off without a hitch.

We requested all of our photos via a digital album once they were done and it was so nice to have them all on hand to show relatives and friends, and look through and relive the magical night asap! Kara did a wonderful job capturing every aspect of our wedding from getting ready, to our first look, ceremony, reception, etc. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our special day!

My husband and I hired Kara Abbey Photography to shoot our engagement photo session (Fall 2022) and wedding this past May of 2023. Kara was able to capture the best day of my life perfectly. She got all of the formal photos that we wanted despite the rain... even came with her own white umbrellas. She captured all the big moments of the night... all the special dances, the "cake" cutting and the ceremony. I was most impressed, though, that she caught so many candid seemingly unimportant moments. There are photos of my family members just having a nice time with one another. There are mid-dance photos that truly show how much fun we all had. Lastly, the private sunset session she stole us away for are some of the greatest photos. I cannot recommend Kara (and Darcy who came on as our second photographer) enough for their patience with our families and attention to detail.

If you are in the market for a wedding photographer, let me implore you to stop here. Kara was an absolute joy to work with, even from the very beginning. She corresponds with you long before the big day, so you never feel in the dark. She has always responded promptly to any emails I have sent, and has been so kind to us even after her technical work is done. And that's not even mentioning the gorgeous photography! This girl is definitely skilled in her craft. If you're looking for a dependable, caring, and professional photographer, Kara is all of that and so much more.

Kara does a great job with a large extended family photo!! Not only the final product, but knowing how to position each person and assure a good view of each smile!

Do you ever meet someone and go "Yep, this person is going to be my friend." That is exactly how I felt when I contacted Kara about doing engagement photos for me and my now husband Micky. I met Kara online in the coaster community and it was a match made in amusement park heaven. When we had our initial call, I knew I was in good hands! We chatted for way longer than we planned to and I couldn't wait to have her be part of such an important moment of my life. Both engagement and wedding sessions were INCREDIBLE! Kara is organized, resourceful, understanding, and every other positive adjective you could think of. When I told her how Micky and I met at the library and that is the theme for our wedding she made sure every literary aspect was shown. I told her all the important thing to photograph (ceremony blessings, Jewish customs, cookie table, families dancing, decor etc..) and she did! I could not recommend her enough. You are missing out in life if you haven't had a chance to interact with such an incredible person! I could write a whole book about how amazing she is, but I will stop here since I wrote basically a chapter. If you are looking for someone to be your friend during one of the most exciting yet stressful moments of your life then contact Kara!

My fiancé and I recently had our engagement photo session with Kara. She was adventurous enough to meet us at sunrise to get beautiful Mt Washington photos in approximately 20 degree weather. She had such great location ideas and we are so grateful we found someone who clearly enjoys their job and meeting with clients. We loved how the photos came out and cannot wait to have her photograph our wedding.

Kara is a wonderful photographer to work with - you will not regret hiring her. She will go over and beyond for you to capture the most beautiful photos of your day. She was so energetic, engaging, and a lot of fun to work with! My husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of a camera but Kara made it so easy and by the end of it we were naturals! We have gotten so many compliments from our families about how beautiful our wedding pictures turned out. Thank you Kara for capturing our day we love our wedding pictures!
