Alyssa Sent on 11/18/2023Gorgeous photos and great to work with!
Katie was so wonderful to work with (and Meg too!). We first met Katie with our engagement package and she instantly calmed our nerves and helped us to feel less awkward and we got back such amazing, natural photos that actually felt like us. Katie was so helpful leading up to the wedding with timeline suggestions and checkins before the day. On the wedding day they were both amazing to have on our team. They were organized with our photo list, helped wrangle our families and bridal party and assisted with everything from keeping us on time, bustling my dress, fixing my hair and coming to the rescue with her mini scissors! They were both so calm, had such positive energy and were so much fun to work with. We ended up with so many stunning photos - and are so grateful to Katie and Meg! -

Simply the best
Let me start out by saying, I picked my venue because it was one of the three dates that worked with Katie’s schedule. She’s that good!
About 5 years ago, Katie photographed my sister’s wedding. My younger brother followed suit and hired Katie to take his wedding photos last year. I knew when I got engaged, that I had to have her and I was lucky enough to snag a date. Making me the last kid in our family (3 out of 3) that had the privilege of having Katie as our photographer for our weddings.
Throughout the planning process, Katie was seamless with her communication and thoughtfulness. Then the day before the big day arrived and I was a anxious about the weather. Katie called me and we spoke about back up plans and she was willing to change things up if needed. The day of the wedding she was an amazing source of calm during the hustle and bustle. Those brides who have been in wedding parties before understand it best- your are with your photographer for a good part of the day. Katie was such an amazing person to be around all day. She directs you and checks in with you. Then during the reception lets you just be present in the moment all the while capturing each part.
Now as for the outcome, the photos speak for themselves. It was 90 degrees out and half my bridal party was sweating but in every picture, they all look flawless! I literally cried (happy tears) when I got back my photos. The posed ones are beautiful, but the moments that Katie captured that were authentic- smiles, tears, laughs, excitement- that’s where you can really see why her work is so valued and why she’s such a coveted wedding photographer.
So, yes, if you get lucky enough to have Katie’s schedule line up with yours, you should book her as your wedding photographer. She. Is. Incredible.🤍 -

There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing Katie is. My photos will be cherished through a lifetime. She has such an artistic eye and there are so many special “non posed” moments that she captured throughout the day. Not your average wedding photographer! Katie’s demeanor kept me calm throughout the entire day as well. She helped me cut the hanger ties off my dress, gave me a Bobby pin when I needed one, ran to get me water before I walked down the aisle. Wow. Just wow! I don’t know what we would have done without her! -

Katie was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish! As soon as my husband and I had our first call with Katie, we knew she would be the perfect photographer to capture our wedding day. She was incredibly kind, warm, and professional from the start, making the whole process a dream. Katie was organized and helpful with the prep work (ex. questionnaires to make sure we didn't miss any requested shots, customized timeline) so we were able to go into our wedding day without any worries. On the day of our wedding, Katie was the perfect calming presence and made us feel so comfortable. The timeline she created was spot on (even when we were running a little behind to start!) and our first look, portraits, and family & wedding photos were super efficient. Katie captured all moments of our day and night and had a fast turnaround for a preview and then the full photo collection. We are thrilled with the quality of her work - what you see on her website and social media is what you'll get! Can't recommend Katie enough! -

I'm not even sure where to begin - I am so incredibly happy that we chose Katie to be the photographer for our wedding. Out of all of the photographers that I spoke with, Katie was the only one who fully understood my vision and didn't try to talk me out of it. I wanted a mix of different types of photos (flash photography, candid photos, classic/romantic, etc.) and Katie gave us exactly that! We are so impressed by the photos and are so happy that we will have them for the rest of our lives. We still have friends telling us that we have some of the best wedding photos that they have ever seen!
One of the best parts about Katie is that she is always cool, calm and collected. During the planning process Katie was extremely helpful with creating the wedding day timeline and gave us great tips and tricks. The day of the wedding, Katie was the calm presence that we all needed. She wasn't just the photographer - one of the straps on my dress broke and Katie calmly signaled for me to come over to her and fixed it right then and there! You can also tell how much Katie loves her job and how much she loves love. Everything that was special to me about that day, was special to her. She captured the most beautiful photos of our families and our love, as well as us dancing the night away with our friends.
If you are in the New England area and you are looking for a wedding photographer, you must go with Katie. We are forever grateful and can't wait to have Katie capture our future big life events!! -

Hiring Katie was a no-brainer for my husband and I, as we were lucky to see her fabulous work firsthand when she shot my sister's wedding in 2019. She was the first vendor we hired (and we ended up picking our wedding date in part based on her availability)! It was the best decision we made in the planning process. She brought profound warmth and professionalism as she flawlessly shot our intimate September wedding in NYC. She was also incredibly attentive — which was invaluable as we opted not to have a wedding planner or day-of coordinator. With Katie on hand, we didn't need one! Quick with a bandaid and thoughtful suggestion about false eyelash length, Katie basically felt like a member of the bridal party. When we got our photos back, they absolutely blew us away. Katie's work is consistently incredible, and she did an amazing job capturing our wedding. If you are looking for a photographer in CT/NY, look no further! -

Lily M. Sent on 09/25/2022Most Lovely, professional, and calm wedding photographer!
All I can say is WOW. We are truly blown away with every part of working with Katie & Meg for our wedding last month. From the extremely thoughtful questionnaire before our wedding, to the down-to-earth loveliness of both of them upon our first meeting (I was 30 min late and they were so gracious about it!), to the full gallery of photos afterward - they nailed everything!!
Our family and friends still cannot stop talking about how wonderful they were the whole day. They were so kind to everyone, got every shot we wanted, and overall just a great asset to our day.
We were a little worried about not being able to meet Katie and Meg before the big day, but it really felt like they were old friends just there to capture our special moments. They brought such a calming presence to a potentially very stressful day.
The photo gallery we were given after is categorized and edited beautifully, with thousands of amazing photos! We are really stunned by their talent and ease. The light! The details! They are spectacular photographers and humans. Our only regret is not booking them for more time!
We'll have these photos forever, and I cannot wait to look back on them in 50 years and think what a perfect day, with the perfect duo to capture it all. -

Kristyn O. Sent on 09/29/2022Katie is amazing!
Finding the right wedding photographer was something that I took my time and tried to research to the best of my abilities because I wanted to love my photos. So much about planning a wedding is about the guest experience, family preferences, or budget constraints. Finding the right photographer on the other hand was something I wanted to do for my husband and me so we would have beautiful photos to look back on.
Katie, came highly recommended to me by a friend and I now see why. We were able to do our engagement shoot with Katie which allowed us to get to know each other. I felt so comfortable going into the wedding day.
Katie was well organized and planned leading up to the wedding and more or less told me what needed to get done. On the day, both Katie and her second photographer Athena were keeping a close eye on my emotions and helping me to feel all of the feels but to not get stuck in one place. They were also quick to sense when I was over something and again we moved on. Given that they didn't know us that well at all I was so impressed by their ability to read our body language and take photos that looked and felt like us as a couple.
Katie delivered over 2k photos all of which were beautiful and perfectly captured our day. If you're on the fence, don't be! -

Amazingly talented work
Having Katie and her sister Meg as photographers the day of our wedding was the best and easiest decision we had ever made. Katie has proved her talent at many of our friends and family's weddings. Her calm demeanor was instrumental in keeping everyone organized and happy the day of our wedding, while she captured the most important moments of the day. She helped us prepare for the day in deciding which pictures would be most important for us. She captured every moment of our wedding, but never was overtly noticed which is a tricky talent of a great photographer! Her editing of photos is natural and beautiful. She gave us a gallery of over one thousand pictures in a timely manner. You cannot go wrong with picking Katie- she goes above and beyond always! -

10/10 would recommend
Katie was AMAZING!! We had our original photographer ghost us and so booked with Katie just a couple months before our wedding. I had seen her at a friends wedding so knew she was great but was more of a financial investment than we had planned. If I could give one piece of advice to brides it would be invest in a good photographer. I’m so thankful we ended up with Katie. She made us SO comfortable and her photos are absolutely beautiful. We were overwhelmed with how well everything turned out and how many natural shots she got. These are photos we’ll go back to for the rest of our lives so it was more than worth the investment to feel so satisfied and like we can relive the day. If I did anything differently, knowing what I know now, I would have added more time to our package. -

No words can really do our experience with Katie, justice! From our first call to our engagement photo session to the wedding itself, Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with. Work? It never felt like that at all. Katie's calm, pleasant and professional demeanor was exactly what we needed to help guide us through the wedding experience.
Neither my husband nor I are the "photogenic" type but Katie helped us feel at ease and worked miracles! Our pictures capture who we are and our love story perfectly. Katie took the time to get to know us and what was important to us. She was more than willing to share her experience and offered much needed advice when we found ourselves in need of direction. We're so lucky and grateful to have found Katie. She is amazingly talented and an incredible joy to work with. -

Monika K. Sent on 07/16/2022The best experience I could have asked for
Katie has been a dream to work with.
From the second she arrived we were put at complete ease and everything that followed seemed to just flow. The best way I can describe our experience is that Katie captured "us" as a couple as we are, naturally.
Her photos are candid but at the same time editorial and timeless. They could be taken from Vogue.
Could not recommend Katie enough!

Jennifer L. Sent on 07/08/2021Katie is an absolute GEM to work with
I did an engagement session and my wedding with Katie. All I can see if how zenful and calm she is, which is the perfect dose of what you need as Bride. She helped calm all my nerves and helped reassure me my day will be great no matter what :) But since she is a photographer lets talk photos- She has this way of making your pictures look like they come right out of a story book. I love how Katie is soo good at natural photos and candid shots, which she makes it look easy. Katie really is an absolute GEM to work with. I will def be looking into possible family photos down the road.
Thanks Katie for making my day run as smooth as possible and thanks for calming my nerves during such a typical chaotic time in someones life. -

Maria Sent on 01/03/2021Best Decision Ever!!
Having the right photographer was my number one priority going into wedding planning, and I can 1,000% say we made the right choice with Katie! Besides her amazing work that speaks for itself, the flexibility, support, and professionalism that was exhibited by Katie throughout planning a wedding during a pandemic made this incredibly stressful time much more bearable. We could not have made a better decision for our photographer! If you want photos that you will not get tired of staring at, look no further than Katie:) -

Such a joy working with Katie and Meg!
Katie and Meg shot our wedding on 08/24/19 and we are forever grateful that we had them with us on the big day. From beginning to end, Katie and Meg were so friendly, so knowledgeable, and so incredibly talented. I was instantly drawn to Katie’s work on her website & Instagram, but when we heard a mutual connection’s glowing review, we just knew she was the photographer for us.
The week of our wedding, Katie walked through the timeline with me on the phone and made sure that we were not only both on the same page, but that she went over any questions or concerns I had before the big day. I knew we were in excellent hands! On the day of the wedding, Katie & Meg got there early and were the sweetest people – It felt like having two extra friends taking your photos. My husband and I weren’t exactly the most comfortable couple in front of the camera, but they made it fun. When the pictures came back, we couldn’t go through the gallery without smiling. We’ve shared the photos with so many of our friends and family and they’re in awe of the photos.
Even just a few days after the wedding, we started to forget so much; The day is such a blur that you can’t possibly remember it all. But the stunning pictures brought back so many memories and you can see certain moments happening all over again. Working with Katie and Meg was truly a joy and I cannot recommend them enough – You will not be disappointed!!

When I got engaged, I knew that the photography aspect of the wedding was one of the most important parts to me. When I came across Katie Slater's work online, I completely stopped looking for other photographers and booked her right away, and I'm SO glad that's what I did!
Katie's photographs are absolutely stunning. They are not your average, stiff, posed, and boring wedding photographs. They are truly a work of art. Our wedding album tells the story of our wedding day perfectly, from the natural beauty of our venue, to the perfectly captured expressions on everyone's faces. I just cannot stop looking at them.
Not only is her work gorgeous, but Katie is so fun and easy to work with. The bride and groom spend a lot of time with the photographer on their wedding day, and Katie's warm, calming presence was exactly what we wanted and needed on the day of. Meg, her second shooter (and sister!) was also lovely.
If you are at all on the fence about Katie Slater, just book her! I promise you will not regret it. -

5 Stars are not enough!!
I fell in love with Katie Slater Photography when I saw my friend’s engagement photos. The depth to the photos were like nothing I had seen before. They weren’t just photos, they were artwork. I knew before I was even engaged that I had to have Katie as my wedding photographer. I’m an indecisive person, but that was one thing I was 100% sure about!
Katie exceeded my already very high expectations. Her work speaks for itself. What I can say is that she is incredibly kind, professional, passionate about her work, and just an all around amazing person! Her sister Meg was the second photographer at our wedding- and she was equally as amazing!
Both Katie & Meg were refreshingly calming on an at times hectic wedding day. Still, they managed to direct our families & 18 person wedding party seamlessly.
We just got our photos- less than 2 WEEKS from our wedding day!!!! The photos are more than I could have ever dreamed of. The editing is simply stunning, and Katie and Meg captured precious moments that my husband and I missed. We will truly cherish the photos forever.
Do yourself a favor and book the BEST photographer in the business- Katie Slater!!! -

The calm creative soul you need!
Katie was the best vendor to have on a super stressful day. She is so calm and lets you relish all the moments without being in your face and yet you know she is somewhere in the background creating that perfect shot. Her energy is very chill and yet she will clears a dance floor by being a boss for the perfect shot. She has done it for so long she knows all the tips and tricks and you can enjoy your day knowing she’s capturing all the moments and details. It was magical. Mega Bonus - She even managed to help me make it look like it was snowing and she climbed a mountain with me for the perfect engagement shoot! -

We love katie and meg!
Hiring Katie and Meg was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From start to finish, everything about our experience with them was so wonderful. They are so easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable. Katie and Meg's energy is so calming and they just fit right into the day. Katie even helped my husband and I take moments for ourselves throughout the night. Their pictures are STUNNING! They really captured the essence of the night. You can tell they put so much thought into even organizing the photos - it's like a story! We have thousands of pictures and we literally love every single one! They are so professional and easy going. They showed up early and made sure we got every picture we wanted. Thank you so much Katie and Meg! Now we can relive the best day of our lives over and over! :) -
