    The BEST Asheville Photographer!!

    Kathy was a DREAM to work with!! She updated us every step of the way and was always quick to respond to our questions…we had a lot! Kathy provides a high quality, welcoming, fabulous photography experience. Her team is amazing and they go above and beyond in everything they do! Kathy is the kindest person you will meet, I felt so comfortable and supported on my big day. She checked in on me multiple times and was sure to make me feel so special! It felt as though we were just hanging out with friends, Kathy and her team are just wonderful. If I could give them 100+ stars I would!!

    Between the sneak peak, blog post and our final gallery we were blown away. The images captured our day perfectly. My husband and I were so emotional looking at our final gallery! Kathy was sure to capture every special (and funny) moment. She exceeded every expectation I had..I was truly speechless when I saw the final product. If you’re looking for a photographer that will make you feel special and comfortable while providing high quality photos of your big day…Kathy is your girl!

    Captures All Those Little Moments!

    Kathy is simply a dream! She not only did our engagement photos, but our wedding as well! Let me tell you, she is not only the sweetest vendor I worked with, she has a thing for capturing the true emotions present! The shots she captured really speak, like they are almost tangible, and for that I am so thankful! I can not say enough good things about her, and we wish we had another event to work with her again, haha! Thank you for capturing this season in our life Kathy! You truly are a master at your craft, thank you for sharing out gift with us! -The Lorettes

    Could not have picked a better photographer

    Kathy was the perfect pick from the word "go." She was responsive, polite, and accommodating. Her consistently upbeat attitude put us at ease right away. When we finally met in person for a unique engagement photo session, Kathy was nothing but supportive, and working with her was a delight. On the wedding day, Kathy and her crew were amazing to work with, and we could not possibly be happier with the results! Five stars are not enough.

    I could not imagine a better wedding photographer!

    I would recommend Kathy Beaver to anyone looking for a top notch wedding photographer! Not only was she easy to work with, she was attentive to what we were looking for and our style. She went out of her way to ensure we got great photographs and that we had a fun experience along the way. On the wedding day, she was so professional, kind, and easy to work with. My whole wedding party commented on how effortlessly Kathy was able to direct a large group of family and attendants while keeping it fun and light. I cried opening the photographs she sent a few weeks after the wedding, because they were everything I could have hoped for! She beautifully captured all of the little details that you barely have time to see and appreciate on your wedding day. Our whole family loved the photographs and raved about how excellent a photographer Kathy is!

    The sweetest photographer 💕

    Kathy was a dream to work with. She was a preferred vendor with Honey Suckle Hill and the micro wedding package we selected. She was very helpful and prompt with communication prior to the event. The day of the wedding she was prepared with the photo list we had discussed weeks prior. She was very flexible in last minute changes and managed to get awesome pictures despite a short 5 minute ceremony! I highly recommend!

    Beautiful photos

    Kathy was nothing short of incredible. She carries such a sense of calm. I hardly knew she was there wedding day. She felt like one of our guests. Our pictures are absolutely beautiful. Our engagement photos were equally as beautiful. She truly captured the story of our day. She was so easy to work with. She was reliable and the sweetest soul. I hope to get her to capture our family portraits for years to come. I love you Kathy! Working with you was such a pleasure.

    One of our favorite wedding vendors!

    Our experience with Kathy was amazing from our initial inquiry for a wedding photographer through our wedding and beyond. Kathy is kind, patient and flexible. Her style and pictures were beautiful and she captured our wedding weekend beautifully. I could not recommend her more! 5 stars is not enough!

    Kathy is fun & friendly!

    Kathy put us at ease on our big day! Kathy and her team were fun, upbeat, quick, kind and so much more! At one point one of her teammates even brought me a drink as Kathy continued to get some great photos. She asked our input and always made sure we were comfortable. I highly suggest booking Kathy for your wedding the quality and service we received was impeccable!

    Absolutely amazing!

    I cannot say enough good things about Kathy! As a laidback bride, I didn’t want to spend forever taking pictures. She made it so easy and relaxed and captured all the pictures I wanted in an ideal time frame so I could still party! She was also very good at remaining behind the scenes but still getting all the photo ops! Not to mention, she had my pictures back to me within two weeks!!! We are obsessed with them! I highly highly recommend her!!

    Above Expectations

    Kathy was timely, flexible and fun to work with! She made us feel so comfortable and natural. Kathy went above and beyond to make sure we had all the shots we wanted and then some. We are thrilled with our pictures and LOVED having Kathy and her team has our photographer!

    Wonderful experience all around!

    Kathy was a fantastic wedding photographer, and also an amazing person. She is super prompt, professional, responsive, and talented. Her pricing is also extremely reasonable for what you get compared with similar caliber photographers in the Asheville area. We were thrilled to meet her for our engagement session (which was included in the package at no extra charge), where she made us feel extremely at ease and comfortable. She turned the photos from that session the following day which I was stunned by. She was also very speedy in getting our wedding photos as well. Her work is beautiful and we couldn’t be more happy with the results. Would definitely recommend for those looking for a wedding photographer in the area!

    Incredible in all ways!

    Kathy is just wonderful! My husband and I eloped (on short notice) in Asheville on Halloween and we were just blown away by EVERYTHING with Kathy. She was extremely helpful to me in planning times and choosing the perfect spot for photos, she was patient with my 14 month old who was zooming around like a nut, and she was just a genuinely warm person and we LOVED her! Our photos were back to us very quickly and they all turned out incredible. We feel very fortunate to have had Kathy as part of our special day and we will cherish our photos for a lifetime. Thank you!!!

    Incredible experience for engagement and wedding photos!

    Kathy was a joy to work with! She was incredibly patient with our requests and made sure we were always comfortable and taken care of during both our wedding and for engagement photos! Kathy somehow managed to stay in the background of the day and yet capture everything just beautifully. She was patient with our family and friends and most understanding of the circumstances (it was very, very hot that day!) She was professional, and so very helpful in planning a wedding from afar. I will never forget how she helped to orchestrate meeting with all of our vendors during a quick visit in Asheville- this went above and beyond and was so very helpful to an overwhelmed bride! She was attentive to all of our wants and her email responses were quick which was much appreciated. We even received the whole album of photos quicker than expected! We are forever grateful for the photo memories she has provided us. My only feedback to any brides (with any photographer) would be to make sure you get several shots of your looking straight-on/into the camera as most of ours are looking at each other!

    Kathy did an amazing job with our engagement and wedding photos. She made me and my husband feel completely comfortable since it was our first time having professional photos done. I love all my wedding photos and got them back earlier than expected!

    Kathy was a wonderful photographer and a pleasure to work with. My husband and I love our wedding photos! Kathy has a talent and passion for photography and truly captured the joy of our wedding through pictures. Prior to the wedding, Kathy sent a detailed questionnaire to make sure she captured all the pictures we wanted. She listened to my requests and I was completely happy with the results! Kathy was fun, flexible, kind, easy to get a hold of and helpful during the wedding. One of our family members has a disability and needed help finding a seat for the ceremony, since I could not not be seen before walking down the aisle, I could not help. Kathy immediately stepped in to escort our uncle to his seat. I could not have asked for a better photographer and recommend Kathy 110%. Her photographs are beautiful!

    We hired Kathy for our engagement session off the Blue Ridge Parkway and she did nothing short of amazing! She captured exactly what I had envisioned and was so easy to work with. From initial contact with her location suggestions to receiving the thoughtful presentation of the prints she sent us afterwards, she made our whole experience wonderful! Needless to say, she will also be photographing our wedding next year and I am excited to continue working with her!

    Kathy captured our day beautifully! I am so thankful that I went with her and Jen from Green Mountain Photo & Films as my wedding-day team! They worked so well together, and really captured some beautiful moments that I barely even remembered! (The open bar probably didn't help-ha) If you're thinking about going with a low-end photographer, DON'T!! I made some serious cuts to other areas of my budget so I wouldn't have to give up on having high-quality photos and video footage, and I am SO thankful I did!! The day really goes by in a blur, and I'm so thankful I can look back on all the details I missed the first time around.

    Our photographer was Kathy Beaver. I don’t think I have ever met someone who does their passion and job so graciously. Kathy has the biggest heart for what she does and also most importantly for her clients. She has such a calming nature that seriously makes picture-taking on your big day piece of cake. We had a huge bridal party which is not an easy task when trying to photograph everyone in the same picture but Kathy made it seem like it was nothing! Our pictures came out to be absolutely stunning! The creativity she put into getting the raw emotion and truly romantic shots of our day makes it possible to relive the moment just by looking through our albums. Taylor and I will definitely use her for future pictures as well. SHE IS AMAZING!
