If you're looking for the best wedding/engagement/proposal photographer, look no further! Kate was absolutely FANTASTIC. My partner and I were visiting the Tahoe/Reno area for a quick getaway and he hired Kate to photograph our surprise proposal. Kate pretended to be our tour guide for a "hike" he had scheduled for us and I was none the wiser. She did a great job playing along, answering questions like a real guide would and took candid pictures of us as we were on the hike. When the time came for the proposal she was able to photograph all of my shock and surprise. I have a strong preference for candid and real moments over staged/posed photographs and Kate was super accommodating. She also got fantastic pictures of our pup in the snow with us! She's so kind, thoughtful and really cares about your comfort when she shoots. I would highly recommend her to everyone!

In choosing to elope in a destination spot, I had TONS of photographers to choose from. I was overwhelmed by the number of choices yet underwhelmed by the majority of my options. That is, until I found Kate! Kate responded to my inquiry super quickly and even in our first “Skype meeting,” I felt like I was chatting with an old friend! She helped us find the perfect spots in Tahoe for our ceremony and photos, recommended a FANTASTIC florist, and captured our special day better than I could have ever imagined! You can see and feel the love from our incredibly intimate ceremony. I truly cannot recommend a better photographer than Kate Stapleton.

Where do I even start! I could write a book about how amazing Kate is. She is extremely professional! She is incredibly friendly! She spends a lot of time getting to know your likes and dislikes and your expectations before she shoots! She pays attention to details and makes sure that you don't miss anything on your big day! She has a smile that will light up the darkest room and her integrity and character reflect that! I found Kate on semi short notice! She was more than willing to go the extra mile to make sure I didn't miss out on any of the special moments leading up to and at our wedding! She offered an engagement session a month before our wedding because we hadn't had one and she was so adamant about making sure we captured the special occasion! Our wedding was amazing and she took pictures of things, people and detail that we would otherwise have missed! On top of that, she captures light in photos like I have never seen before. He work is stunning! Not only is Kate an extremely talented photographer, she is an even better person. Kate has become a friend to our family and she is a huge blessing! You would be lucky to have her for your photographer, for any occasion!
