About

I was 5 when I knew. My friends wanted to be ballerinas and firefighters, but my heart told me that I was put on earth to tell stories. And though I grew up next to my dad in the darkroom, Nikon in-hand at every event, I didn't know that I would lay down my pen for a camera until 10 years ago. It wasn't on purpose, not at first. But the first time I had a couple in love stand in front of my lens, I knew I wouldn't be able to stop.

Since then, I've cried in countless ceremonies, danced at a hundred receptions, eaten some amazing wedding cake, and had the incredible privilege of documenting the beautiful story of the first day in a family history... over and over and over again. How did I get so blessed, that I call this my job?

I'm Megan, a storyteller. I love what I do, every moment of it, every step of the way, and I can't wait to hear about what you have planned for your first day as a family.

Reviews of Megan Kuethen Photography

It's hard to fully express how exceedingly satisfied I am with Megan's work. Her photography was inspired. Even when plans changed she was quick to be flexible and adjust for me and she really listened to my needs and desires. She knows how to ask the right questions. Her positive presence led to my wedding day being so peaceful and stress free. Her communication prior to the wedding was on point. She's exactly what a stressed out bride needs. And her photos captured the essence of or wedding perfectly. I'm so grateful she was able to capture our wedding. She goes above and beyond and I wish we could get married all over again so she could capture it once more! I'm grateful that she could capture the beauty of our venue, our attire, but even more so capture the love that filled the day. Thank you Megan.

Megan was fantastic. She showed true investment in both of us from the moment we reached out to her. She and her partner were completely service-oriented throughout the day. And, we didn't have to worry about capturing images--she got everything there was to get. Highly recommend her services!

Megan was a superb photographer! I could not recommend her highly enough. She was friendly, proactive and professional in her manner and approach. She went above and beyond what we asked, ensuring that our wedding ceremony went smoothly and with style. She was great to work with, making the process of taking photos incredibly enjoyable and a real feature of our day that we will always remember.

Megan conducted herself positively and discreetly during our dinner and party. She caught so many great moments that truly captured the atmosphere and spirit of our special day. Most photographers take weeks to select and edit the final proofs for the client. Megan went out of her way as her surprise gift to us to have them ready within an amazing 24 hours! For that we we will be eternally grateful.

The quality of the final photographs were outstanding and we couldn't be happier with them. She produced a set in colour, black and white and also selected her personal 'favourites'. All of these photographs were available to us to download and print as we liked and there were no further costs beyond those agreed.

We are currently planning a second wedding ceremony in the UK (my husband is American and I'm from the UK) and we are seriously considering flying Megan over to photograph this event too. We are very happy with the service we have received and recommend Megan to you unreservedly.

Megan really gets to know her clients on a personal level. She makes you feel as if you've known each other for much longer. Megan was very clear about her style of photography & made sure she understood exactly what you were looking for in your photos. Needless to say, we were a match made in heaven. We both loved natural light & nature!!

At the start of our engagement photos Megan used icebreakers to make us laugh & relax. Thereafter, we felt so comfortable & we were having so much fun that it felt as if Megan was not even there.

Throughout, Megan was very professional, organized, flexible, & responsive. We felt well informed every step of the way. Megan even went above & beyond by recommending other vendors & helping us with our wedding day timeline.

On our wedding day, Megan did an excellent job in coordinating our family and wedding party, all the while, keeping in line with our wedding timeline. During the ceremony, she blended in so well I hardly noticed we were being photographed. Once we saw our reception photos, I saw that she was in the mix the entire time & captured every moment of the night. Throughout the night, she made sure we were good & had everything we needed (a kind & caring gesture from a photographer who has tons of experience w/ weddings & goes above and beyond her duties).

After the wedding, she was very enthusiastic about sharing our final photos with us in a more than timely fashion. Without a doubt, our photos were absolutely perfect. We are literally obsessed with all of our engagement & wedding photos. She captured the most amazing moments & accurately portrayed our personalities in her pictures.

It's evident that Megan is so enthusiastic & passionate about her work, & her photos truly reflect that. If I could give her more than five stars I would! HIRE Megan as your engagement and wedding photographer! I promise you won't be disappointed.

As a new bride you have so much to take in and think about. Where do you start? When I walked into the Newport Bridal Show I had a ring, a dress, an idea for a venue, and not much else. After meeting Megan I knew what my next step needed to be. Her vision, style, and positive attitude sold my then fiancé and myself right away. We agreed that on a day where you spend more time with your photographer then possibly anyone else it was important for that person to be someone like Megan. She is always supportive, encouraging, talented, and above all else, fun.
The day of the wedding came, happened, and before we knew it, was over. Luckily we have a TON of beautiful photos proving that it all actually happened (including a great shot of Megan being an amazing sport when my shoe went unexpectedly flying at her during our first dance- thank you Vicki for capturing that moment). My grandpa, a 93 year old Episcopal reverend performed our ceremony. During the reception he pulled me aside and said “your photographer is the nicest, most professional, and least invasive photographer I’ve ever worked with”. If you can’t take my word, take his. Megan is the real deal and I will recommend her work every single chance I can.
I could say so much more, but it might get in the way of what is important to the next new bride who has no clue where to start. Thank you, Megan, from the bottom of our hearts for capturing everything so gorgeously for us!

Megan was the best vendor we had for our wedding. She was constantly keeping an eye on our timeline to make sure we were on schedule (she helped create the timeline and typed it up for us to give to all the other vendors). She made us feel like we were the most beautiful couple she had photographed. My friends and family still talk about how awesome the photographer was because she and her second photographer managed to put up 30 of their favorite pictures from the ceremony and getting ready into a slideshow to play during the later part of the reception! She went out of her way to make sure our day was special and I'm so happy we chose her to be our photographer!

The photographers for my wedding were amazingly attentive to what I wanted and needed. They go above and beyond the service. Extremely friendly and super fun to work with. Very personable. All my guests complemented the quality of service they provided. The photography came out spectacular. Extremely professional with the poses and the angles in the pictures.

Megan is not only an amazing photographer with such passion and drive for what she does, but she also an amazing person with such a great heart. From the moment I meet her, two years ago, I knew she was the only one I would want photographing me on my day and all the other photos that were needed leading up to the big day. She was constantly checking in with me throughout the two years to make sure I was ok, if I needed help and just encouraging me along the way. She even stood by me when the bridezilla in me reared its ugly head: sorry about that Megan.

As a bride with so much on her plate it was nice going into the day with no concerns of whether my pictures were going to be what I expected. I had no doubt that Megan would come through on all her promises and capture the most beautiful pictures. But surprisingly, she went above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined; and I've only seen the "previews" so far.

Because I LOVE Megan so much our relationship will continue both professionally and personally. There is no one else, that will ever be able to capture my husband and me the way she does, and one day she will be capturing my husband, me and plus some.

Please trust me when I say hiring Megan will be the best decision that you will make, as she will provide you those fairy tale ending pictures that every girl dreams of having.

My husband and I loved having Megan do the photography for our wedding. We were able to do our engagement photos with her prior to our wedding, upon Megan's recommendation, which really seemed to ease any possible tension with taking photos on the day of the wedding. Her knowledge of our venue and our vision of the wedding showed in our pictures. They were beautiful, and I can't wait to order our wedding album!

Was there for us in any way that we needed her. Did a timeline for us that worked perfectly for the timeline for the entire day. Megan goes above and beyond and makes sure you are satisfied with her work.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
