KJ is a miracle worker!

I dreamed of hiring Katelyn long before I even met my husband, so when we got engaged we both knew exactly who we'd be contacting first in hopes she had our date available. Hiring Katelyn was not only a dream come true but an honest God-send. Our wedding was full of challenges from pouring down rain eliminating most of my hopes for outdoor and lake backgrounds to logistical hiccups (like my veil falling out mid-processional). But Katelyn kept her bright smile on the entire day and made it feel like nothing was a challenge for her at all. She felt like a dear friend and often was there for me during hard moments where I needed to catch my breath. After everything, I cannot believe the gorgeous photos she captured despite a dark and gloomy wedding day, and her high spirits kept me calm and excited despite every reason not to be. My husband and I truly got to relax and enjoy the moment because we knew KJ was capturing every precious detail. The photos truly speak to the emotion and beauty of the day that we felt in our hearts, and we cannot thank her enough for immortalizing these memories for us. We are in awe and would hire her 1000x over given the chance!

KJ is the best!!

I'm so grateful Katelyn was our wedding photographer, she absolutely blew both of our celebrations out of the park and I feel like we've gained a new friend. Love you so much KK! Thank you for everything!!!

Just Perfect.

Katelyn, Michael, and Emily (Katelyn James Photography) are the ultimate dream team. I cannot express how amazing they are - words do not do them justice! Not only do they produce such perfect, beautiful pictures but they truly cared for us as friends, not just clients! Katelyn shot our engagement and wedding: just perfection. Not only are the photographs stunning, we got our sneak peaks/favorites and digital album so quickly!!! We could not have asked for a better photographer and team - they made our wedding experience magical.

Katelyn is the best in the business! Her photos are colorful, romantic, clean, and attractive, and she possesses such a joyful, exuberant aura. When she walks in the room, she immediately puts everyone at ease (and coming from a fellow wedding vendor, that is a God-send) and is confident and well-trained in her craft!

We most recently had the occasion to work alongside Katelyn at a Congressional County Club wedding. The Hora was a huge part of the festivities - it was lively and crowded and still Katelyn captured the moments in both a gorgeous and authentic way. Her portraits from the evening are dynamic and striking, warm, joyful and amazingly well composed. Definitely some of our favorite wedding shots from this year.

Katelyn takes amazing photo's and is crazy easy to work with. I watched her organize a large bridal party and get photo's in during a short time while the rain had stopped. It was tough day outside for photo's and she made every moment count for that wedding couple. From a DJ point of view Katelyn was easy to work with. Always on top of things. I never had to go hunt for a photographer to get things going for the evening. The next day she had a few photo's already to share with the bride and groom and they were simply amazing. You're in good hands with Katelyn!
