    Karen Shines!

    Can I give 10 stars?? Karen is beyond incredible! Her positivity, joy and professionalism shine. We are beyond thrilled with the photos from our wedding! From start to finish she made the whole process so easy and straightforward. Her willingness to incorporate some unique elements into the day, and her eye for light and color are unmatched. We have had Karen photograph my family for years and there was no question on who we wanted for our wedding this fall. She had knowledge of the venue, first look locations, and scenic spots that would make our colors shine. The day was hot hot hot and she took it all in stride - her kindness and coolness even in the heat helped me stay calm on the busy day. I cannot recommend her enough! From early morning engagement shoots to walking down the aisle, I had total faith in her abilities and her skill. She truly knows how to capture a couple in their element and make their personality shine through the photos. Thank you thank you thank you Karen! We are so so grateful you were our photographer!

    The best!

    Karen is the best!! From our first meeting with her, we knew she would be an amazing photographer. We choose to do a sunrise engagement session in the fall and Karen took gorgeous pictures. At that time we would have never guessed what 2020 would bring but Karen was there to support our wedding plan changes. Fast forward to our wedding day when Karen caught every moment possible. She was so organized and efficient. Her photography skills captured all details. Guests commented weeks after our wedding how wonderful Karen was. I cannot thank her enough for her amazing work and highly recommend her!

    Passionate, Personable, Organized, and all-around Amazing

    Karen was everything we could have hoped for in a wedding photographer! Karen is truly exceptional. She is extremely talented, organized, personable, self-directing, and can charge and corral the troops when needed. Our wedding experience wouldn't have been the same without Karen capturing picturesque photos and making us feel at ease on our big day. She was a 10 out of 10 across the board, and if I could I'd give her an 11. We love you Karen!

    What a Gem!

    Karen is truly a gem! A gem of a photographer, a gem of a person, and a gem of a professional. From the minute I reached out to her to shoot our wedding, she made the entire process carefree and enjoyable based on her attention to detail and organization. It's just easy to trust her. The finished product exceeded my expectations!!

    Overall an A++ experience. We can't wait to use her for future milestones!

    Karen was our wedding photographer - she was flexible with her package in a way that made sense to our situation, which we so appreciated.

    Karen is professional and approachable, and provided helpful, open guidance that gave us peace of mind on a day that could have been a bit stressful! She spent time and energy trying to understand our vibes and goals for the wedding photographs, and we felt she kindly honored our hopes. She caught many beautiful moments of the day and was so respectful of our guests, youngest to oldest, while doing it. We're absolutely pleased with our photographs! I highly recommend reaching out to Karen Feder!

    Karen Feder's reply:

    Katie! Thank you so much! I loved getting to know you and Matt and thankful to be able to have been a part of your day.

    Fun, Professional, Creative

    My husband and I hired Karen for our August 2018 wedding at the Hennepin Co. Courthouse, followed by photo shoot all around downtown Minneapolis. She was fun, friendly, and came up with great ideas and creative places for photographs. We wanted to keep our wedding extremely simple, but the one thing we decided to invest in was good photographs, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the photos that Karen did for us. She really captured the relaxed, loving tone of our day. I'd highly recommend her for any wedding, no matter how big or small!

    Karen Feder's reply:

    Jessica! Thank you so much! It was an honor to meet you and be able to capture your intimate ceremony. What a fun day that was!!

    Amazing Photographer and Best Experience

    Karen was absolutely amazing to work with. She made my wedding day an unbelievably wonderful experience. From the moment me and my husband met her, she felt more like a friend that we were hanging out with. She made everyone feel comfortable and we had an amazing time and i am so happy that she was our photographer for our wedding. Not only was working with her amazing but the images of my day came out beautiful, and every time i look at them, i get chills of joy. She 100 percent captured the day beautifully, and is now the only person i trust with capturing special moments in my life, and i cannot say enough good things about her.

    Highly recommend!

    We LOVED Karen! She was absolutely phenomenal! She is the best photographer ever. Her photos were absolutely stunning and she was amazing to work with. She made us feel like she knew us forever from the second we met her. She is so kind, upbeat, efficient, and so much FUN! She was personal and professional throughout the whole wedding planning process to our wedding day. Our bridal party still tells us how much fun she was and how comfortable she made everyone! She captured every moment of our day. I can't say enough positive things about Karen. She did everything perfectly and I HIGHLY recommend her. If you are searching for a photographer, choose Karen! We are still living our wedding day through her photos. She is the absolute best!

    Karen Feder's reply:

    Awe, thank you Carissa! What a wonderful day you and Preston had and I had to much FUN with you!!

    Karen Feder captured our perfect day magically

    Karen was absolutely amazing. Her personality shines when you meet her for the first time and even made my husband who HATES pictures have fun. She was efficient, professional, and above all talented.
    I had exceedingly high expectations for our wedding photographer and Karen overwhelmingly exceeded them.
    We had our photos back in one month (June wedding!!!!) which is unheard of. She took the time to ask what we really wanted captured from our day and made sure we had those things. She made pictures (hours of them) fun and easy. I cannot wait for the day we have little ones and can use her again and again for family photos.

    Karen Feder's reply:

    Ali!!! What a joy it was to be with you on your wedding day! I loved being able to meet you and Joe and can't help but remember your cold and SO FUN engagement session!! Thanks for allowing me to capture your day for you!

    Amazing and Comfortable!

    Karen was amazing! She did both our engagement and wedding day photos and did a lovely job. We loved how she treated our engagement photos as a date between my fiancé and I and she was tagging along. She made the session very comfortable and natural. We were very blessed to have her as our photographer!

    Karen Feder's reply:

    Maria! I was so blessed to be with you and Brent. Thank you so much for including me in your day and what a fun engagement session that was!!

    Karen was more than just our photographer!

    Karen went above and beyond what we were looking for on our wedding day. She was very professional, and thought about everything before we could even think of the ideas. Karen went above and beyond just being our photographer. The week before the wedding, we received a package in the mail from her. About a month after the wedding, we received another package in the mail, with our pictures and a jump drive, and some other goodies. We just received another package in the mail, for our first Christmas together. She went above and beyond just being our photographer. I got the vibe from her that she wasn't doing photographer just for the money, but she truly enjoys what she was doing, and loves getting to know all of her clients. We cannot wait to use her again in the future.

    Karen Feder's reply:

    Thanks Julie! I loved serving you and thankful that I get to do what I love with incredible people like you!

    Simply Excellent

    Karen is the full package. We had an awesome experience. She was incredibly professional partnered with being very personable and fun. I do not feel I am the most photogenic person, but with Karen behind the camera you could never tell. We are so pleased with the quality of the photos and are so glad we found her! We would highly recommend her to anyone!

    Laura! What a beautiful bride you were and a beautiful wedding day you and Evin had! It was a joy it was to be able to photograph it and spend the day with two incredible people!

    Karen made our day very special and captured moments we can always look back on. She is very personable and flexible. Karen was wonderful at communicating with us throughout our planning. She even spoke with us a few days before the big day to check in and make sure we were feeling good about everything. Karen is an incredible photographer. Her vision is exactly what we had hoped for in a photographer. She also provides an engagement photo session to get to know the couple and work with them before the wedding day. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to hire a professional photographer.

    I heard about Karen through a family member, and I'm so glad I did! Karen was so helpful throughout the entire process, from the engagement pictures to the wedding day. All of my pictures are beautiful and Karen gave me so many to choose from. Karen is very professional, while also fun to have around on your big day. I highly recommend her photography services!

    Review the options and services provided, and then schedule a meeting to have an initial conversation. That will help you get to know each other - she'll get a sense of what you are looking for and wanting most from the service, and you will get a sense of how she works and what she will bring to the wedding day. We found Karen to be very organized and thorough, her timeline kept everything perfectly on track. The photos were absolutely fantastic, we are having a hard time narrowing down our favorites because there are just so many of them! We highly recommend Karen for your big day.
