I could not be more happy or impressed!
I first met Kathi when she shot my best friend's wedding! Not only is Kathi the reason I entered the wedding industry myself as a wedding planner, but I knew she was the perfect photographer for my own wedding day.
With a background in fashion, Kathi was the perfect choice. I was looking for a casual glam, slightly editorial look to my photos and Kathi delivered in SPADES! She also captured some very cute candids that were unexpected and so appreciated.
I am so ecstatic to see all of the photos in our collection, but I was blown away by the sneak peeks!
Professional, polite, and willing to work with my group's creativity, everyone felt confident and included.
With a groom that is not typically comfortable in front of a camera, Kathi coaxed the confidence and happiness out of him like I've never seen.
So incredibly happy with Kathi and her work!

AMAZING!! Very professional and an Artist!
Kathi was the MVP of my wedding planning process especially when we had to change our plans due to Covid-19.
She was my sounding board, helped with ideas on how to change our 120 person wedding to a micro wedding of our dreams in such a small amount of time.
She was able to recommend vendors and knew what ones would suit our wedding style.
Kathi kept in touch with the ever changing regulations and her attention to detail was needed!
Kathi captured our small micro wedding beautifully despite the rain. She was so creative with her photos from getting ready to our final dance of the night!
I highly recommend Kathi! She is a dream to work with!

Sarah, thank you so much! It was a true joy to document your day and I am so thrilled that I could help with putting your literally perfect intimate day together out of the many many challenges you were faced with. Amazing how after the struggles of 2020 wedding adapting, a rain storm on your wedding day was no big deal ( and gave us some pretty cool photos!) Cant wait for the big part in 2022!

Kathi and Matthew are incredible!
My husband and I had Kathi and her assistant Matthew with us on our special day. Kathi worked with us to ensure our wedding day was captured perfectly. She and Matthew are professional, kind, and really made us feel comfortable being photographed. We really enjoyed our experience, and so did our family! Thanks so much! Lianne & Jeff

Wedding Photographer
When we met Kathi the first time we instantly clicked and chatted for hours. We were blown away with how comfortable we felt with her and how much experience she had, especially with Jewish weddings. She helped us turn our array of thoughts into a fully realized wedding plan.
She answered all of our many calls and emails about various wedding questions. When the pandemic hit and we had to completely change our plans, she was right there with us. She was patient as we went back and forth. By the time our wedding came around she was more than our photographer; she had also acted as our therapist, wedding planner, and friend.
On the day of the wedding she kept us calm, despite our lack of sleep, the pandemic, storms and tornado warning. She managed our famikies well and was discreet during the ceremony. And most importantly she took STUNNING photos. They highlighted what she learned was important to us beautifully captured every aspect of the day.
We highly recommend Kathi, and we look forward to hiring her everytime we need a photographer. Hands down best photographer in the city.
