BEST Photographer Ever

We cannot say enough about Karen and her team. They are phenomenal. She met with us beforehand and helped with a time line. Karen helped explain some of the semantics about weddings and times, and stress, which was a HUGE help. Her photos are incredible. She has a way of making the ordinary turn out extraordinary. She is personable, friendly, honest, and helpful. We could not have asked for a better photographer. I would hire her again, in a flash, for any event I was having.

Karen did a phenomenal job photographing our wedding. From the very beginning, she helped put together a timeline and always answered any questions we had prior to the wedding. She came out the day before the wedding with her second shooter and they helped us figure out where the best lighting would be for the ceremony! If you want AMAZING wedding photos, you have to hire her!!

Karen was extremely nice and completely understood what I was looking for in a photographer. She would e-mail or text for different situations, always responding promptly. She came to the venue 2 weeks prior to my wedding to check it out. She was very thorough. I loved that she brings an extra shooter so you get different views of things. Photos were amazing. I HIGHLY recommend her for any special event. You cannot go wrong with her photography.

We cant say enough how amazing this photographer is. She was hands down the best choice we made for the entire wedding. From first meet and greet till the day we picked up our photos, we were blown away at her professionalism and talent. Karen made is instantly feel like she knew what she is doing. Her portfolio and gallery is what originally peaked our interest and instantly upon walking in to her studio we took one look around and just knew. Then it gets better, she starts to talk and interact with you and you get this desire to call her family and just have her come as a the life of the party guest. She is so professional and yet so fun. Makes you feel secure in the fact that she has done this before. We clicked and hired her. While working up to the wedding Karen was in constant contact with us. Whether we bugged her for something or she was just checking on us, she was always helpful and quick to respond. She took the time to visit our venue before the wedding to look for shots and come with a game plan. She gave us an idea of a timeline and boy was she spot on for the perfect lighting. During the wedding she was so amazing. Her staff and her were so friendly to all of our guests. They always knew how to get the best shot. They even interacted with the little ring bearer and flower girls to make sure they were comfortable. She had great ideas for photos. Even Pinterest has nothing on her. Then the day came to see the photos and her work brought us to tears and smiles. She is AMAZING. Every single photo was top notch and perfect. Each one of family and friends couldnt say enough about how incredible the photos were. We loved her and will be using her for family photos and whatever else we can think of to hang out with Karen!!!

We absolutely cannot be any happier with our wedding pictures!!! Working with Karen was amazing! She was on top of things from the get-go, she stayed in touch with us throughout the planning and checked in on us, she met with us and worked with our budget. We knew what we'd get and there were no hidden costs.

We were so comfortable working with her. Karen wrote out a rough draft schedule in our first meeting with her to make sure we got all of the important events in within the amount of time she had and we met again with her before the wedding to make sure there weren't any changes. If it weren't for Karen taking the time to do this, honestly, our day would have been a mess. The coordinators we had at the venue were not helpful and she REALLY helped to keep us on a schedule. Karen even went out prior to the event to scope out the venue for good spots.

She took do much time to make sure she got the right shots and we knew they'd come out beautifully. She had all of our photos edited and back to us within 2 weeks and they were amazing. She captured all the perfect moments and we could not be more grateful.

Karen had a second photographer with her that day as well and I had no idea how important and necessary that was until that day. They didn't miss a moment. At the end of the night I looked back at a few moments and was nervous they weren't captured.... Getting those pics back today, she honestly didn't miss a thing. We're blown away and she's so sweet and personable too! We loved her. Couldn't be happier!!

Karen had great ideas for our engagement photo session and captured our love story in the beautiful Arizona desert. We had her make a custom album of our story and featured one of the photos at our wedding with a movie premiere poster. She was very quick in getting the pictures to us and completing the edits for the book. Would absolutely recommend Karen for any memorable event where you want to have photos to remember.

Karen was wonderful! She was very professional and had a game plan in mind for the day of. In fact, she helped us out together a rough draft of the day's schedule before we even thought to do so! I was very impressed with her time management.

The best part is that we didn't have to worry about a thing. She kept us on time, worked seamlessly with the other vendors, and was present without ever interrupting the party.

She was able to capture the all of the best moments of our big day and put them together beautifully in an album that we'll keep forever.

I can't say enough about Karen! I just hope we have another reason to work with her again soon.
