Top Notch Photographer

Kathy did an amazing job photographing my wedding. During the planning process, she always responded promptly. On the wedding day, she was excellent. She made me and my whole family feel at ease. She got me all the pictures I could have hoped for.

I would recommend her to any bride! Big or small wedding, she will make you feel like the star of your day. And she will take great pictures.

Personal, Friendly, and Fun!

Kathy was absolutely amazing at photographing our wedding. We started working with her early on in the process of planning the wedding. She understood our vision right away and was able to help us refine what moments were really important to us and make sure they were captured. We’re not really posed photography people and we were really looking for a lot of candid shots of people enjoying themselves. Kathy and Renee captured that beautifully and also guided us to get some amazing photos of us that feel natural and really highlighted our special day. They made us feel very comfortable and brought such fun energy the entire day!

Absolutely beautiful pictures!

Kathy did an amazing job on my daughter's engagement pictures. They were taken at different sites in Frederick so we had an excellent variety of pictures and they were wonderful! Unfortunately Kathy was hospitalized just prior to my daughter's wedding but she didn't miss a beat and we quickly learned that her sister Missy (who is her co-photographer) and Gary would take pictures at the wedding and they did a FABULOUS job. The pictures are just gorgeous and capture the true beauty of the day and especially of the bride and groom! I would highly recommend Kathy Blanchard and her team!

Kathy and her sister were the exact photographers I was looking for on my wedding day! They arrived on time and were extremely professional. They were always present to capture the "best moment", however, I didn't even realize because they were do discrete. It was important to me that most of my wedding photos were not staged, but rather natural and candid, which is Kathy's style!! It has been nearly 6 months and I still can't decide which ones I want to frame for my house.

Great photos and quality. She is very responsive to any questions and requests! Large rang in style from classic and romantic, to fun and quirky. Beautiful photos. We are so happy we chose her as our photographer.

My wife and I hired Kathy for our wedding in April 2016. After unfortunately running into a few road blocks booking other photographers, we were so thrilled to find Kathy. She was enthusiastic about our vision, open to our ideas and brought a warmth and comfort level we did not feel with others. We were very impressed with her ability to evolve the traditional wedding poses to accommodate two women seamlessly and without hesitation. We also hired Melissa, Kathy's sister, as our second photographer. These two are on the same page and really created a well rounded series of photographs that complimented each other. We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos and would recommend Kathy (and Melissa!) to future brides, especially LGBTQ couples who are looking for wedding services.

Kathy is a warm, creative, and fun person. We loved having her photograph our wedding at The Oaks. She was one of the few vendors that never batted an eyelash about the fact that we are lesbians. She took the time to listen to what we wanted, and she really followed through. We love our photos! Kathy's sister Missy was our second shooter, and she did a fantastic job, too. They work really well together. Kathy also went above and beyond to notify us after the wedding when our videographer went out of business and was not returning people's footage to them. She really looked out for us. I'm so happy we chose Kathy and Missy!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
