Simply Amazing!

We only have incredible things to say about Katie! She made me feel as if I were the most special bride from the moment that I met her. I actually found Katie after meeting her husband when searching for a venue. I am so thankful that he mentioned his wife was a photographer and my sister asked him for more details, because not only did I find the best photographer, but I also found the venue we got married at. Once I picked the venue, I knew that I had to work with her even more because she has photographed many weddings at that venue so she knew all the best spots for the best shots. Katie has the most bubbly, sweet and thoughtful personality. She made both my husband and I feel comfortable during our engagement photos, which was hard to do especially since we were nervous due to it being the first time we had taken professional photos together. She works great with dogs too! She also helped us to feel relaxed surprising us with some goodies right before the wedding and a sweet surprise after the wedding too. Katie made sure we felt prepared with providing us a magazine of what to expect for all of our wedding events. She met with me multiple times to understand exactly the vision we were going for and to get to know us better. Kellie was wonderful too! We met her on the day of our wedding, but felt instantly comfortable with her as well. She did a great job getting our 2 year old nephews to smile and look at the camera. The KEP team is amazing and we recommend them 100% to anyone. They are both so talented, with an eye for the perfectly detailed shots, professional and easy to work with. We plan to work with them in the future, and most of all, we look forward to spending time with them as friends :)

Beautiful!

Katie and Kellie captured our wedding day beautifully! Katie is extremely easy to work with and very easy to get in contact with. She made time to sit down and learn about our wedding day both before our engagement shots and before our wedding day. We have already received so many compliments about our photos and they came out perfectly. I would recommend Katie to any couple!

Incredible Everything!

We cannot say enough great things about Katherine Elena Photography. Pictures speak for themselves, so one can see how talented and creative Katie is there. What people can't see from an image though is everything behind it - the person, dedication and passion. As DJs, we get to see lots of weddings and we're always excited to see when Katherine Elena Photography is working with us. We know the pictures will be great and we also know it will be an easy collaborative effort working together. Katie is always a joy to be around. She always makes time to say hello and is always smiling. We see how hard she works and how dedicated she is to both her craft and clients. We're honored to work with her and highly recommend!

Incredible Photographer

We absolutely loved working with Katie - she was the most professional, thoughtful and kind person, not to mention a stunning photographer. We felt like we were in totally capable hands the entire time and did not have to worry about photography one bit. She added such thoughtful details throughout the entire process that really made you feel special as a bride. We got both our wedding and engagement pictures back with quick turnaround and absolutely love all of them! She was a total dream to work with, and I highly highly recommend her for any photography needs!

Simply the BEST!

Finding a wedding photographer in a big city can be somewhat daunting as they are a dime a dozen. The first time my husband and I met with Katie, we knew she would capture our special day just the way we wanted. We flew Katie to Mexico for our destination wedding and oh man, she was great. The day Katie arrived, she offered to take a few engagement pictures on the beach as we had never done an engagement session, which was so nice and appreciated. She also captured our welcome party, wedding day and reception. My husband and I wanted to be very easy going, stress free and laid back at our destination wedding and Katie went right along with it and I felt like our pictures captured that perfectly. She is so easy to be around and all of my guests loved her, even getting her involved in the dance off at the reception. At our final pre-wedding meeting, I voiced concern to Katie about not having enough time for pictures before the sunset and she had several ideas and made it work where we had plenty of time before our reception started, which was a huge relief for me. Katie’s husband also came to Mexico and was such a great help when taking pictures after the ceremony. Katie is on point in responding to any questions or concerns you may have and was all around the most amazing wedding photographer we could have chosen. I’m hoping maybe one day I can bring her back to Mexico for a #livinlavidalarach reunion!

Working with Katie was AMAZING!!

We cannot say enough great things about Katherine Elena Photography! She is absolutely the best. The level of professionalism she has is evident from the moment you meet her, not to mention the passion she has for what she does. She takes the time to get to know you both as a couple and makes all sessions feel comfortable and easy-going. We loved working with her during our engagements and were so excited for the memories she would capture at our wedding. And she did not disappoint. Our pictures are incredible! After all the planning and preparations are made and the wedding festivities are over, the pictures Katie and Kelly captured are what we will have to remember the happiest day of our lives and they are truly amazing. We couldn't be happier with the work she did and highly recommend Katherine Elena Photography to anyone who is getting married!

Katie is not only a phenomenal photographer, but an extremely kind person! Working with Katie was seamless and easy and we loved our time with her. She was easily accessible and responsive to our many questions, professional, and friendly. Katie is super easy to get along with which helped make us feel comfortable during our engagement photos. The day of our wedding, she ensured the day went smoothly while making sure all the details were just right. She is incredible at what she does and has done an amazing job with our photos. Her turnaround time has been quick and she even sent us a gift before our wedding! We are very satisfied with how absolutely gorgeous our pictures turned out. You can tell that Katie is extremely passionate and talented at what she does which makes all the difference! Thank you, Katie, for capturing our perfect day so beautifully!

I've been told that I was a very laid back bride, and that's because I put all of my trust into my vendors. They are the experts, so I trust that I can share my vision with them and they will execute it seamlessly. Katherine Elena Photography is the perfect example of that. I hired Katie for my bridal and wedding photos. From our first encounter, I knew that this was someone I could trust. I could email her the most random things ("will sweat stains on my satin dress show up in the photos?") and she would be super responsive and never judgmental lol. She is knowledgeable, calm, and very organized. I kept asking her during the wedding, are we okay on time? are we okay on time? And she would say, "we're fine, let me worry about that." And I did. Oh, and the pictures are gorgeous. Thank you so much, Katie and Crystal for everything.

Katie is amazing! She is great to work with, very flexible and most importantly captures amazing photos. She did our engagement photos, bridal portraits, and wedding photos. We love them all and are so thankful to have found her and have her capture these memories. Not only is she a wonderful photographer, she also can provide great recommendations for other vendors she has worked with. Book Katherine Elena Photography, you will love working with Katie and her team!

Katie was absolutely amazing with us during our wedding. Sue was one of the key people that come in and made us have fun every step of the way. Both of them made sure to get the smallest details from making sure to get the smallest details for the day. Hats off to them both for going to the extra step to get to know us, but even more the fact they were willing to share things about themselves with us. I have to say that Katie is so much more than a photographer, she is now someone that we consider part of our family as well.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
