    Like meeting with an old friend

    It’s always a little nerve wracking being in front of the camera but Kesha never rushed us and made us both feel so comfortable. By ten minutes in my normally serious husband was laughing and joking which made this experience so fun for me. The pictures that came out of our session blew me away, I have been swooning over them. Anyone who books with her will be more than happy they did!

    Love Kesha!

    Kesha is such a dream to work with. Highly professional and so down to earth. She made sure my wedding photos would be exactly what I wanted. She was fantastic at posing us and made it so easy and comfortable for my new husband and I. So much fun and super quick. She wanted to make sure we weren’t just taking photos all night and that we got to enjoy the day. Not only a photographer but a huge help when it came to the coordination of the day. Anything we needed she was happy to execute. I love her and highly recommend her! Can’t wait to get all out photos back and look back on the day!

    Above and Beyond

    Kesha you went above and beyond our expectations. You helped direct, bustle, and wrangle all of us. None of us can imagine the day without you and we look forward to working with you again soon.

    Gifted photographer, gem of a human.

    Kesha is truly one of a kind in all of the best ways. She's not just a photographer, she's an artist - so creative, yet highly-skilled. She also has this impeccable ability to instantly ease the unphotogenic and the camera shy (both are me) to capture the most perfect moments.

    Not only is Kesha a truly gifted photographer, she is also an extraordinary impromptu wedding coordinator/master of ceremonies/lifesaver. It monsooned on my wedding day and we had to unexpectedly switch to an indoor venue for my ceremony. On top of this, my DJ was late (which impacted my entire timeline) and he barely emceed. However, Kesha took matters into her own hands and kept the show going with a smile on her face and wet socks on her feet.

    Kesha came to my wedding as my photographer, but left as family. Everyone just loved her - especially me. I know her future clients will, too.

    In the future, when I remember my wedding day, I will always think of her and how she went above and beyond to make everything perfect in the midst of a storm (literally).

    Felt like I knew her from the get go.

    Kesha was just a joy to work with, I am not photogenic by any means but she made it fun and really helped made it feel natural. She was just so patient and easy to work with. 10 out of 10.

    Incredible work!

    Kesha is such a natural behind the camera! She made me and my partner feel so comfortable and we were so happy with the pictures. She has such a quick eye for a good shot and gave us a truly wonderful experience. Would highly recommend!

    Incredible

    Kesha was amazing. Our wedding was right in the middle of Covid and she was so flexible and caring while we struggled to figured out what worked for us. She ended up photographing our mini and makeup wedding. Everything turned out exactly how and wanted and the pictures were beautiful.

    Very professional experience!

    Go to Kesha with all of your photography needs and you won’t be sorry :) she is very professional and knows exactly what to do to make sure you get the documented memories worth holding onto for a lifetime! Kesha was very punctual and even assisted in wardrobe recommendations the days leading up to the shoot. I will be using her again in the future!

    Absolutely blown away by the quality of Kesha’s work. Phenomenal, breath-taking and completely exhilarating! I could not be more pleased to have the best photographer I’ve ever found. It was a blessing to be photographed by this lovely lady, 10/10 recommendation from me 😘

    Professional, Understanding, & Easy to Work With

    Kesha worked with me to create the exact images I was looking for and more! She exceeded my expectations. She was professional while keeping an air of lightness on an otherwise stressful day. The images she created were absolutely beautiful and I couldn’t have imagined anyone else capturing them for us. She was easy to get in touch with and answered promptly. I highly recommend her and would hire her again and again!

    Kesha is a very nice individual to work with. She is prompt to respond to inquiries as well as meetings. She takes special care to address the fine details of positioning and props. Her photo editing is straight out of a Fairy Tail. She works hard to meet deadlines without sacrificing quality.

    Kesha was incredible, not only did she really take her time to plan the perfect Session that fits my needs, she went above and beyond to truly make me feel incredible and beautiful. Her work is so flawless and her personality sparkles in her images through intense and beautiful Color Saturations. Im a True fan of her, her Art work and her prices are beyond reasonable for the incredible work and Art she creates!

    Kesha is a beautiful soul. You can tell just by the beautiful work that she can put together.. She is someone you can always rely on for whatever beautiful memory you're trying to capture. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for quality work.

    Amazing Photos but Lacking Professionalism

    Working with Kesha was great, the photos that we have gotten so far look amazing, and she was very enjoyable and fun to work with.

    Our only complaint is her professionalism. She did not dress very appropriately for our formal wedding, and during the ceremony, she got in the way of our families and was a bit distracting. This is something that we should have talked about before the wedding, but we didn't think that we needed to.

    For future reference, it would be great if Kesha brought up this conversation with her future clients to make sure this doesn't happen again. But all that being said the photos came out amazing and we would definitely work with her again.

    Kesha Shonet Photography's reply:

    Hi Jonah,Thank you so much for the review! I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of your wedding day! I did want to respond to your concerns, as this is the first time I’m hearing them and wish we could have spoken about this privately. For ceremony shots I do have to move around quite a bit in order to get specific shots for your album. This includes those nervous laughs, to happy tears, to the sincere emotions on both the bride and grooms faces. I believe in capturing every small detail I can. Had this been discussed prior as a concern of yours I would have happily stood to the side for the ceremony and captured from afar. I will make sure to talk bout this with future clients as this has not been an issue in the past and want to make sure it is not in the future again.
    I also would like to address the concern about my attire which is what made my professionalism marked as this low. I am a wedding photographer / wedding vendor. Formal dresses and skirts do not jive with my profession (as I am bending over, climbing chairs, and getting under tables for all the best shots!) I do like to stay true to my personal style while still maintaining a professional demeanor. In the future I will let clients know that I do have a somewhat alternative style (with tattoos). Since it was 98 degrees + very humid out I opted for weather appropriate black dress shorts with a solid colored sleeveless top and comfortable shoes.Since I knew I would be running around, kneeling, and bending all day. I just wanted to state what I was wearing under your review so future clients wouldn’t imagine me in flip flops and a T-shirt (or worse). I do sincerely wish we would have spoken about this before the wedding so all of your concerns could have been avoided , with this being said , your wedding was truly one of my favorites to date and I am so happy that you guys love all your photos! Thank you again for allowing me to be a part of your wedding day.

    Great value, but had some challenges

    I was so excited to book Kesha and work with her. Her pictures are beautiful, she's a great value, and we have loved the edited photos we received. Unfortunately, there were some issues with receiving the pictures after the wedding. It took a really long time to get the pictures back, and we still haven't gotten all of the edited photos we were promised (we got married in July 2021 and it's now almost May 2022). I know that Kesha was experiencing some challenges that she did communicate to us, but she would only communicate that after I would check in with her and ask for an update. I feel like I've been super patient and understanding, but at this point I just want the edited photos that I was promised!
