Bottom line up front-- BK Rose is Best in Class nation-wide and peerless...keeping up with trends…read moreand best practices etc. is what gets you booked. All stop. That means doing your homework. I'll help you out with gusto, just as so many have helped me as I got started on my own journey. Being on point on your self marketing, especially when you are non-represented, is non-negotiable. Failing to be professional with what casting directors demand is a roadblock. Submissions are "make or break" power moves. THE ODDS ARE AGAINST the apex storybook discovery tales of rarities like JLAW, Michele Pfeiffer, Charlize Theron etc. so if you expect that to be your way in...it's not reality. I get cast and work in these markets: NYC (Netflix movies), Atlanta (Marvel/ABC), and Mid-Atlantic (Apple TV). I am new to the business (three years in) but I have been building a resume over time and there is no way I am going to compromise because I take my career seriously. There is no slack given in a highly competitive industry with a dearth of roles and a surplus of talent. SO...if you want to crack the code, get seen, get call backs, get booked then there is no better photographer for any amount of money than BK Rose and Kat is my Queen. I get work in commercials, major motion pictures, network tv shows because of her. Fact! Every single person I ask that plays a role in getting cast (when I am lucky enough to get employment) has singled out my headshots as what is working for me to get my foot in the door. BK Rose unequivocally is worth the plane ticket, drive time, train time, mule riding time (you name it) to get quality content and ultimately get BOOKED. Not 10 out of 10 -- 100 out of 10!

We used Kat to do family/newborn photos when we had our 2nd child. We hadn't done family photos…read morebefore and Kat was so patient and helpful with answering all the questions I had and letting me try on outfits she had in the client wardrobe to see if anything would work for me before the photoshoot. She had some beautiful options but I ended up going with a dress of my own. Kat is truly a child/baby whisperer and was able to soothe my 3 week old to get her to cooperate for pictures and got my shy toddler to smile for photos! We received our pictures within 2 days of our photoshoot and they are nothing short of incredible. We have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful and stunning they look. I would highly recommend using BK Rose Studio for photos and know we will be reaching out again when we need more family photos taken!

Not only is she an…read moreincredible and talented photographer, but she is such a kind, outgoing, and personable human being! Truly the best photographer I worked with thus far. She's perfect for event photography which is what I use her for. She is on-time, hard-working, and gets right into it. And the best part of it all, the pictures were ready in under 48 hours. That's IMPRESSIVE. I really liked Ashley and can't wait to work with her again! Loved the beautiful pictures she captured!

Ashley photographed me and my now-husband at our small City Hall wedding, and then the next day at…read morethe big party we threw with all of our friends and family. I tend to get really anxious in front of a camera, and don't consider myself to be very photogenic and so I was nervous for the photo portion of our days! Turns out, I did not need to be nervous at all! From the very first moment Ashley disarmed us and kept us comfortable. She was nothing but positive and--truly!--made us feel awesome about ourselves and the pictures we were taking. She is just a pleasure to be around and our comfort and happiness really comes through in the photos. And the photos are amazing! Ashley really captured our days in a way that will help us keep those memories for a lifetime!

Our guests had so much fun with the photo booth, and it was such an awesome bonus that they were able to do "roaming pictures" of the event while people were not using the photobooth.

They were both professional and fun, and took great shots that captured the energy and personalities of our guests! 10/10 would recommend booking for your event whatever it may be, and we will definitely be looking to LVL UP events in the future!! Thank you John and Cassandra!
