The best there is!
Diane did a bunch of my friends weddings so I knew as soon as I saw her in action, the way she was interacting with the couple, the family, the guests that I had to have her as my photographer at my wedding! In fact, I checked with her about dates that she was available when we got engaged before I checked with our venue because Diane was more important than getting married on a particular day to us!
I am not somebody that is comfortable getting their pictures taken and my husband is super quiet and shy so I wasn't sure how everything was going to go, so we started off with an engagement session to get the feeling of what we needed to do and it really helped Kyle and myself get used to it. If you aren't sure about being in front of the camera, definitely get an engagement session because it made us feel so so so much better and we didn't stress at all about the wedding pictures. Which was a huge deal, especially for me because I always hate myself in pictures! But after our engagement session I knew I didn't have to worry about a thing because we had Diane!
Diane is the best photographer ever. Her pictures are perfect. She's professional, courteous, full of wisdom and is honestly there for you for way more than just getting the perfect pictures. She has so much knowledge to share about everything and looks out for your needs and what's best for you to make your wedding day what you want it to be. If it wasn't for Diane I would have freaked out on my wedding day because my officiant was stuck behind an accident and was late and my husband asked someone if I knew and they said no and they were going to go tell me and Diane told them to wait, and she told me when he got there and I was none the wiser which saved me a lot of headache and probably tears. I was so grateful for not being told until the problem was solved!
I feel like Kim needs her own review, but Kim is a huge asset to Diane's team and I can't thank her enough for all of her help on our wedding day. For carrying my train jumping over mud puddles, being apart of the bush, all of the laughs and for secretly being in our wedding pictures lol
You guys are the best there is! Can't imagine not having you guys around! -

Over the years, Diane has done our family pictures, engagement pictures, and now our wedding pictures. She takes her job seriously and is the best at it. I am usually a very laid-back person, but even in my mix of emotions/anxiousness on my wedding day, Diane really helped me take a deep breath & realize what was right in front of me. She is very creative in so many different ways & always finds the best backgrounds & the pictures always come out stunning (and I’m not being bias). 10/10 recommend! ❤️ -

Amanda Sent on 07/28/2022Our best decision
Hiring Diane was the best decision my husband and I made for our wedding. She had a great vision for our wedding photos and made the entire process so simple and efficient. She presented us with pros and cons of things like a first look, never once pushing us to decide one way or the other. She truly wanted our experience to be what WE wanted it to be, and we are so grateful for that. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further. Diane is the absolute best! -

Amazing All Around
My husband and I clicked with Diane right away, it was a photographer/engaged couple match made in heaven. She was amazing from the time I contacted her to the day she delivered our photos. She was able to even give us vendor recommendations and those did not disappoint! We ended up using multiple people she recommended (DJ & MUA). The vendor team was impeccable, we can attribute our absolutely perfect wedding to these folks. She wrangled family well, captured all of the important moments perfectly and delivered AMAZING photos. Cannot recommend Diane enough. -

The best photographer.
I hope to hire Diane for all of my future life events that need to be photographed!!! She truly is the best to work with (& her sister, Kim, who was SO HELPFUL on my wedding day). Diane has a way of making us feel so comfortable, which makes for the most authentic photos. Her photography skills are unmatched! My wedding photos are breathtaking and truly made my jaw drop. I could not ask for anything more! -

I’ve personally worked with Diane in the wedding industry as I was once a coordinator…If you want it done right, then you need to book Diane NOW! She is professional, timely, reliable, compassionate and will literally do ANYTHING for her couples. Her dedication to providing couples with amazing wedding day photos is unmatched. Sometimes wedding days can be very stressful for couples and families but Diane is easy going and will definitely make you laugh off all those nerves and anxiety associated with your big day. She’s not only an incredible photographer but an amazing person inside and out. She puts her heart and soul into her photography services and it shows. All I know is if you want someone that’s going to deliver and be there for you on the biggest day of your life, then you need to book Diane asap! -

Dominique Sent on 09/08/2021Amazing! 💕💕💕
I cannot express enough how amazing Diane and Kim were. They were amazing to work with and awesome to talk to. She even had a second photographer, Kelsey, go to my fiancé’s parents’ house in the morning for his getting ready photos.
The day of the wedding I was so worried about the weather and making sure we were able to get our photos. Luckily the weather turned out great. But I knew that Diane had a back up plan just in case. She was always telling me to relax and enjoy the day.
I only saw a few of our photos so far and I love them! I cannot wait to see the rest. Not only is she an amazing photographer but she’s also a therapist LOL. I texted her over the last couple months about the ever-changing plans leading up to our wedding. She’s a great listener and she’s awesome to work with.
If you have not picked a photographer yet I highly recommend Diane. -

Allie Sent on 09/08/2021How to describe Diane in one word - AMAZING!
Justin and I first met Diane together when she took our engagement photos over 2 years ago. We all hit it off right away and she instantly made us both feel comfortable throughout our entire session. The photos she took in her own backyard came out better than I ever possibly could have imagined.
Diane was amazing throughout the entire planning process for our wedding! She was always there to listen to my questions and concerns, and confirm wedding day timelines a million times to make sure I had everything in order. She was also always willing to answer any questions I had regarding wedding planning in general, it was great to have someone I could text at anytime with my questions to get a speedy reply. On the day of the wedding her and Kim made everything run so smoothly and gave us plenty of time to get all the photos we wanted. Her and Kim work as an amazing team and we were more than willing to try out all their new photo ideas which all came out amazing. Family photos following our ceremony ran so smoothly and went by quickly which left us plenty of time to mingle with our guests during cocktail hour. We also received our entire wedding album less than a week after our wedding, I'm not sure how she pulled that off, but I'm so glad she did because we were very impatiently waiting to see them. Our photos all came out amazing and we still can't decide which ones will decorate our walls for years to come because they are all beautiful. -

Allie Sent on 06/13/2021The best photographer in the area!!
Diane is the absolute best at what she does! She has such a good eye when it comes to photos! Whether it be a candid or posed shot she really knows how to capture the moment. Not only is she a photographer she is also great at leading the bridal party/ family when it’s time to take their photos. My bridal party was large and that was a worry of mine that it would be hard to keep them contained! Kim is her assistant and is absolutely great at what she does. Kim literally held my dress for most of the day while I walked around before the ceremony and after taking pictures.
Thank you again ladies for helping me make our day so special! We will see you both for Christmas minis!!! ❤️❤️❤️ -

Look no further
Diane absolutely exceeded our expectations. We knew she would be a fabulous choice - but this album was STUNNING. We had trouble choosing photos to print because we loved one more than the next. She captured our day and fit in with our family, friends, and guests seamlessly. The quality of her work and the ease of working with her and her assistant kim is unmatched! They felt like life long friends the moment I met them, allowed me to choose photos I felt important to have, and created stunning photo opportunities I could not have even imagined. We consider choosing Diane the easiest and best vendor choice for our special day. Literal tears of joy looking through my album, and tears of laughter when working the day of with her. Look no further for your wedding photographer - she is your girl. -

Hands down the best!
Diane is the best photographer hands down! Right from the moment I met her I knew she was exactly what we wanted for our special day. When COVID hit and we had to postpone our wedding a whole year, she came through and made our original wedding date still special for us! Diane and Kim are very professional and make you feel extremely comfortable. Kim was so helpful the day of our wedding, I could not thank her enough. Diane captured our wedding perfectly. She was very quick to provide us with our gallery, which I am in love with. If you choose Diane, you will not be disappointed! -

We cannot say enough good things about Diane and Kim! When searching for a photographer, Diane was such an easy choice we booked her immediately for our engagement AND the wedding two years in advance! Especially after the engagement photos, Diane knew exactly my style and the aesthetic we wanted for the wedding. She captured everything perfectly, from the prep photos to the ceremony, and the special dances to the cake cutting. I cannot wait to have her capture many more special moments for our family! Xoxo, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Williams. -

I highly recommend Diane Kivler for all your photography needs! I hired Diane as a photographer and ended up with someone who feels as close to me as family! Diane captured our engagement photos beautifully. And we knew then that we found the right person for our wedding. The vibrant colors and creativity in her pictures was just what I envisioned. When COVID hit and we had to move the wedding date, Diane guided me right through the process and kept me from losing my mind. She was such a source of comfort and it meant the world to have that person when you feel that everything is unraveling. That alone should say what kind of woman this is. She even took photos of us on our original wedding date to commemorate when we were supposed to get married. Our wedding pictures turned out so beautifully so far and I can't wait to see all the rest! And a special shout out to her sister Kim, who was not only a wonderful assistant with her help and ideas, but she was even my right hand woman throughout the whole day. If you want your special moments captured with the love and care they deserve to last a lifetime, hire Diane Kivler Photography! I promise it will be worth every penny!

I honestly don’t know where to begin... We got married last weekend and Diane did such an amazing job! AMAZING! If you want one thing right at your wedding it’s your photographer. Diane and her assistant Kim go above and beyond expectation to make sure she captures the perfect shots (At one point Kim was IN A TREE holding up the branches out of our way) We’re seeing some previews of pictures already and we are so impressed! I am so happy we will get to look back on these special moments, thanks to you ladies! If you are looking for a great photographer, look no further! Thank you SO much to Diane and Kim, for helping make our day so perfect! ❤️ -

Michele Sent on 09/18/2020Diane Kivler is the Best
The first time I met Diane, I was given a gift card for pictures 4.5 years ago. She came to my house and totally blew me away. Since then, my (now) husband and I have worked with her for all our special pictures.
When we got engaged, I met with Diane to discuss her wedding packages. We went to a couple bridal shows, so I had talked with other photographers and got a feel for how they do business. Diane's just on another level. She gets to know you. She gets to know your partner. You want to hang out with her and get to know her more. And that is exactly the trust you want from your wedding photographer. I think our pictures speak for themselves. Diane perfectly captured our emotions on our wedding day. Her talent highlighted the amazing amount of love we all got to experience.
When we had to cancel our 250 person wedding due to COVID, Diane helped me in almost all aspects of planning our intimate 25 person wedding. It's above and beyond what I expected from our wedding photographer. Having to drastically change our wedding plans made the pictures that much more important. Our family and friends are able to live through that day with us because of all these stunning shots. I didn’t want pictures that didn’t feel like us. These are literally us. You can see it and feel it.
I would be remiss not to mention Kim, who held up my 30lb dress all day and made sure everyone was picture perfect while Diane clicked away. Everyone at my wedding felt like they knew both of them and loved them. They’re rockstars.
I promise, you won’t be disappointed working with Diane. She’s professional, has an amazing eye, and a phenomenal personality to walk you through one of the most important days of your life. She’s the best! A huge thank you to Diane and Kim; we couldn’t be more appreciative and excited! -

Phenomenal
We met Diane at our friends wedding. I wasn't engaged yet but I saw how good Diane was at our friends wedding. When we did get engaged I asked our friends if they would mind if we used same photographer as them! They said yes, that she's awesome! We met up with Diane and we hired her and she even helped us find our Dj for our wedding! During covid Diane reached out with her schedule and to see how we were doing with everything! We became her first covid wedding of the year! Everyone was extra excited! In the moment I couldn't remember all the photos. Diane was around snapping away catching the moments a bride misses! The photos came out phenomenal! Taking the photos with Diane and Kim was alot of fun. Kim nearly ran down off the mountain for Diane so she can capture a shot. It was a pleasure and honor to have them capture our moments, they are beautiful women who find great joy in sharing in our day! We highly recommend for anyone needing a photographer!! Thank you so much!

Nicole Sent on 01/27/2020Talented, Amazing, and Awesome!!
From the moment we met Diane and her sister Kim at an open house, we immediately wanted to work with them! Both Diane and Kim have awesome personalities; we got along so well that day, and we left feeling like we would really enjoy working with them. Diane’s work speaks for itself - the images she captures are simply incredible! She prides herself on professionalism and producing high quality products for her clients. We knew that, as our photographer, she would ensure that we looked our best and that she would commemorate even the smallest of details on the wedding day. Sure enough, on the day of our wedding, Diane delivered. We fully trusted her vision and were up for trying new things - and it paid off! Diane also honored any requests that Mike and I had with photographs. Kim was equally attentive, helping me with my flowers and shawl, noticing small details that helped to achieve perfect shots! They are hands down the best team! We can’t recommend them enough; we had so much fun! We made a lifetime of memories at our wedding, and have such gorgeous images to share with others. Our wedding was nothing short of magical, and Diane Kivler Photography captured that magic for us to relive long after the wedding ends! -

Incredible Photographer with an Amazing Personality
Diane is absolutely incredible! We got a good vibe from her the minute we met her at our venue's open house and booked her quickly. When we sat down for our pre-wedding meeting, we sat over coffee for hours just chatting and laughing hysterically! It was like we were old friends. I just knew that of all the things I might have to worry about on my wedding day, photos would not be it. I knew Diane had it covered. And the day of the wedding she was just amazing. She made everything so fun and really focused on capturing the exact photos we wanted. We ran late getting to the venue so we had to take photos during cocktail hour which Diane knew we didn't want to miss and she got all the pics we wanted in no time flat so we could go enjoy the party!!! Our photos came back so quickly and they were perfect! Some of the pictures she captured just took my breath away. We had such an incredible experience working with both Diane and Kim! You can't go wrong with the two of them. They will absolutely make your day perfect and capture every moment. Thank you for all that you did to make our day great! We had so much fun with you and are so glad you were a part of our special day! -

Kati Sent on 07/04/2019AMAZING hands down
I have so much to say and not sure where to start.
Diane is truly a magnificent person inside and out and her talent speaks for herself.
I love her personality. She made us feel so comfortable and laugh (and when you laugh, you can forget about all the stress)
One reason (besides her amazing talent) why we choose her. She met us for a consultation close to our home. She took the time to drive all the way to met us 15 mins from our house. That was a huge stress relief. See both my husband and I work different shifts and its very hard to get 3 peoples schedules to work. After meeting her I knew right away she was the ONE. She took notes, brought albums of her past work, gave us advice, and made us feel like we were friends!!
She was so attentive to our vision and made sure she captured what we wanted. Hands down we made the best decision selecting her as our photographer.
My emotions were all over the place that day and Diane captured all the best angles to make sure I looked beautiful.
The very next day she was sending us edits, (that is unknown of) she worked super fast to get us our whole album. We didn't even get all the cards opened and she sent us our album completed. We were married May 11 and May 25th we had all the pictures.
I would like to thank her sister!!!! Big shout out to Kim. OMG she was hilarious and things she did to make sure Diane had the perfect shot made us laugh. She is the greatest assistant.
Diane from here on out, you will be out photographer for all the greatest events in our lives!
You have made a client for life and also a friend.
(Im crying writing this, because you have spoke to my heart and made such an impression, there are very few people like you in the world and were lucky to know you)
Thank you for being you,
Mr & Mrs. Edmonds xoxo

Cherise Sent on 12/03/2018I can’t say enough about Diane!
Diane is A-MA-ZING!! She started out as our photographer but now I consider her a friend! We met at Sand Springs Country Club’s (venue in Drums, PA) Vendor Open House and we just CLICKED! I loved her personality, how conversation just happened and her portfolio- OH MY GOODNESS! All photos were absolutely gorgeous! As we walked away from her table my mom said to me “Well I think we found your photographer!” BUT I knew how important photographers were for wedding day and still did my research, spoke to other photographers, looked at other portfolios but between Diane’s work AND her personality no one was comparable! It is SO IMPORTANT to not only have a photographer that is talented and experienced but one that you are comfortable with! She was always available for advice, suggestions, and just SUPPORT! When wedding day came I knew Diane had everything under control, not only the photography and my “must have” shots but also our TIMELINE! I did not look at a clock ONCE ALL DAY. Which was an amazing feeling. Her assistant Kim was an angel, she helped me with my veil and train (cathedral veil) ALL DAY, and I had a church wedding so it was a LONG DAY! Our photos came back absolutely gorgeous, she was imaginative and innovative and her editing is just superb! She also suggested a way to get our dog to the venue! I can’t say enough about her! -

Brianna Sent on 09/11/2018Diane did our wedding photos and was AMAZING! She kept my wild and crazy wedding party under control while managing to capture every moment so perfectly.

She captures your day, the way you want.

So laid back and knows how to make even the quirkiest of people smile laugh and look amazing. Our engagement session was done in about 30 minutes because she is that good. She had our wedding photos to us in a week on zip files which was super easy. She also runs great promotions for Christmas and other holidays! Book with her you won’t be disappointed. Plus she was voted the best in NEPA.
