my approach
My photography style is a blend of giving direction and guidance when needed and being more of a hands-off observer at times leading to a gallery that feels authentic. I have a very easy going and personable vibe and my goal is to create space for you to be yourself, be comfortable and have fun. I want you to find value in the experience as much as you do the photography itself. From elopements just the two of you, backyard weddings, to larger luxury weddings – I capture them all with the same care and detail. I’m not only a wedding photographer, I’m someone who’s truly invested in you and your day.
The most meaningful part of your wedding day is the time you spend with your partner and the friends and family you have chosen to be there. It’s important to me you are taking the day in and living in the moment, not worrying about whether all of the photos are being captured and if everything is running smoothly. That’s what your vendors are there for, we want you to enjoy your day to the fullest. If you are worried about your dress being perfectly fluffed in every photo or have a shot list a mile long, we may not be the best fit. If you want to be fully present on your day and trust that your day is being documented in a way that’s authentic to your day with a focus on details, the little moments and the overall aesthetic…Let’s chat.
The Process
"Kara is caring, kind, talented and trustworthy. She had never been to our venue before and she absolutely crushed it! I can’t say enough positive things about her and her work. I hope to work with her again because I am OBSESSED! I wanted our pictures to speak to us every time we looked at them and she did exactly that. She goes above and beyond in her work and you can tell she cares just as much as you do."
Jojo
"Kara has a way of making you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captures such beautiful shots without feeling staged. We absolutely adore her, she's sweet, laid back and down for whatever you throw at her!"
Savannah
"I find myself going through our photos almost daily because of how beautiful they are. Kara was so personable and easy to work with and we could not recommend her enough!"
Cayla
"We have absolutely fallen in love with Kara and her eye for capturing all of the small as well as big moments. She was beautifully present on our wedding day, and captured more than we could have imagined."
Melissa + Matt
"Kara captured our Aspen elopement PERFECTLY!!! We booked with Kara because we were in love with her other photography so getting our own stunning photos from her was just the best! She was so so so patient, listened to everything we wanted, and ventured out in the rain to get the perfect moody photos for us!!"
