Kate made me feel like the bride I've always wanted to be. She took her time during our engagement shoot to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera and made sure to get every detail and tons of special moments during our wedding. The photos make me weepy and it's clear she cared so deeply about capturing my memories. Plus, she's just generally awesome to be around. I couldn't recommend her more if I tried. She is absolutely, THE BEST.

Kate Noelle was the most amazing wedding photographer that we could have asked for. She was such a joy to work with and we enjoyed getting to know her as a person as much as we enjoyed having her as our photographer! She is so visionary and talented as a photographer, and we consistently get comments from family and friends about our engagement and wedding photos complimenting our photographer's talent. Kate did an outstanding job on our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. We also love the guest book she made for us that all of our guests signed on our special day. Kate's the best!

If you are looking for someone who will make you feel immediately comfortable and get really good photos of you without any awkwardness and have everything completed in a timely manner, with true professionalism? Kate is the best choice! I mean it…

So….I always thought getting pictures professionally taken was pretty stressful ( yup, that’s me with the fake smile and the awkward hand thing in most casual photos- throw in some posed photos and my thoughts range from: where should I look, what do I do with my arm, is there too much teeth, how do you smize? Wait, what is smizing…) And throw that together with planning a beach wedding in January with questionable weather (please don’t rain, please don’t rain!) And then combine that with trying to get the right look and feel - nice but beachy but special while encompassing “us”? And getting everything right - sunset, low tide, friends, family, dog and getting married! It’s a lot! But she did it.

You’re probably talking to a few different folks and trying to figure out how to describe what you want but not really knowing how to express yourself? She gets it. I mean it.

She’s been doing this a while and if you look at her photos - you get it. She knows what you want your pictures to say. She makes things really easy. She knows what’s beautiful. She knows what you need to remember - and she walks you through the whole thing. Even before she takes the photos.

We talked on the phone. And that was it! She knew what I wanted.

There was so many things to plan! And even though I wanted simple and casual I really wanted special… and I was lucky I found Kate. She had taken some photos of my friend - some were playfully sophisticated (if you need any business or LinkedIn photos, she would be awesome!) and she had taken some family photos and that segued into wedding photos. And they were awesome.

They were casually inviting. Honest. Open. Great light. You could tell that everyone in the photos felt comfortable. And I can attest to that. If you’re even on the fence - do it. Talk to her. She’ll make you feel comfortable. She’ll tell you how it can look. And she’ll make it happen.

We knew that we needed to hire a great photographer for our wedding because of the location and the memories that we wanted to take away. By hiring Kate Noelle we got everything we wanted plus things we couldn’t even dream up. Kate was such a wonderful photographer to work with, starting with our engagement shots, which were free for the purpose of getting to know us during a photo shoot so we would be prepared for the big day. During the wedding she had another photographer and her husband as an assistant to take extra shots and to help her around on her crutches. It work out that he was our driver when we were taking pictures on the beach and he was able to drive the car around until we were done. She used all of the time wisely getting the sunset pictures in at the beach and on the bluff overlooking the ocean and pier. We got all the shots that we were hoping for and God made sure that the weather was beautiful that day as well.

Kate took the time to get to know us as a couple and understand our wedding vision! We love her personality and work ethic. She was able to make my husband smile in pictures!!! She's a miracle worker!!

Not only is Kate incredibly talented and a pleasure to work with, but she's also a lovely human. I was afraid being photographed would feel awkward, but Kate's warm personality and sense of humor made it a lot of fun. We really appreciated how well she gently coached us, while still encouraging us to be ourselves - you can tell from our photos that we were completely comfortable. We're so thankful to Kate for capturing this special moment in our lives so beautifully - we'll treasure our photos forever.

I'm gonna be honest, I don't like getting my picture taken. Like, at all. Generally I've avoided it as best I can throughout my life, something I didn't want to do for my wedding. We found Kate through a friend of ours and she shot our engagement photos and our wedding. She made the experience super comfortable and totally helped ease my photo anxiety. Even better, the pictures she took are absolutely incredible. Our wedding album is a treasure that we look at constantly. Kate captured our big day so magnificently and I would recommend her to anyone!

Kate Noelle is the most amazing photographer I have ever seen! I have followed her Blog for years and the moment I got engaged I knew she was going to be my photographer. What I didn't realize was how though her photos are out of this world great; she as a person was the best photographer to work with. I feel like there is no need to put anything else, other then choose her. But I will because I know when I was a Bride I wanted all the details about my vendors.

First, Kate's photos: If you visit kate's blog or facebook you will be blown away at the photos she takes. She has the ability to capture moments that you don't even know are going on. Also she very quickly gets a feel for what you want captured. My Husband and I are big city people and really wanted to have the modern city feeling captured but yet still get the romantic shots. For both the engagement and wedding photos she completely got what we wanted. And on top of it she gets amazing photos in a short amount of time. Our engagement photos took about 1 1/2 hours and we had so many amazing photos I just couldn't believe how quickly she captured it.

Kate as a person: One thing I didn't realize until post wedding is how important the personalities of your vendors are. You are going to be working with these people more then you think and especially on a day that holds so much emotion you need someone that you feel comfortable around. I believe kate is the type of person you can't dislike. She is honest, open, and comforting. I got a little nervous before my wedding (putting on the dress was an emotional moment for me) Kate was comforting but normalizing and allowed me to feel all the nerves tear up a little and help me get going with the day. I was blown away by her calm demeanor, it literally was the best thing in the world. Kate is also very direct with photos which works wonders when it comes to family photos. She called people by name and got them in there spots. She is outstanding to say the least!

Kate was amazing such great pictures for our engagement and wedding! At the wedding she already had some on display by dinner it was so cool to see some shots while we were still there. Her assistance were also very nice and helpful thought the day!

Kate is an amazing photographer. My wife and I hired her to take maternity pictures of us on the beach and she was very creative and really fun to work with. I was kind of nervous but she helped me feel at ease and to even enjoy the whole process. We loved her work so much that we hired her again to take family pictures of us and our new infant. Despite the fact that our baby was fussy that day, Kate was able to elicit some timeless and classy photos of us and our new baby that showed, very artistically, each of our personalities. I would definitely recommend working with Kate if you need quality photos taken and want to enjoy the experience.
