This is why she can photograph such a broad range of events, from weddings, to senior portraits to even children(she has three little cute ones herself who are most likely the cause of her inspiration).

She is very affordable and likes to throw in nice extras, like a slideshow, etc. Feel free to visit her website which shows more of her work and keep her in mind for your next special event!

It's hard to find photographers who you vibe with and make you feel like THAT GIRL, but Michelle went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. She took her time to nail the angles, and we were walked through a lot of poses to make sure I got what I specifically wanted, which was genuine and candid photos. I especially like the types of photos she makes since they are more on the soft lighting, and the sun was absolutely on our side this day. My husband isn't one to take pictures, and this man was laughing and impromptu-ing like no tomorrow! He definitely felt comfortable to be in front of the camera, and not to mention the beautiful scenery Michelle chose. I didn't know the 152 could look so amazing! Michelle is communicative, has a good turn around time for pictures, and definitely makes sure your vision comes alive. I couldn't choose a handful, so I added screenshots of my most favorite!

I rented soft play, the bubble center, bumper cars, kids chair and table. They added some other yard games for free as well so that was quite nice as it kept not just the kids but also the grown ups entertained. They are really dedicated to provide the best and I was quite surprised that they are just starting up because their conception and execution were amazing. Set up on time, good layout, colorful and new stuff, well maintained and Kids Loved it! I am surely going to bring them on again for my next time.

Kate Howard is so wonderful! She is so professional, yet still makes it so easy to have fun! My husband and I used Kate for our engagement and wedding photos. He was so stressed out and nervous for our engagement shoot, but by the time we finished he felt great! Kate made my husband feel so comfortable and secure, which is not an easy task. He had such a great time, he couldn't wait to do wedding day photos! The day of our wedding, she was prompt, professional, so incredibly sweet. Kate has a way of making you feel calm, like everything is going to be okay. Her pictures from our wedding were absolutely stunning. Our church photos look as if everything is glowing, like she captured the essence of God herself. We couldn't be more pleased with the service she provided and the special memories she gave us that we will cherish forever. I would recommend Kate Howard Photography to everyone. She's a doll to work with and her work is amazing. Well worth every penny! read more

Kate Howard is the BEST photographer and overall person that you will ever meet. I have been photographed by Kate Howard for cheer pictures as well as my senior pictures. On the date of my senior pictures there was so much wind that caused my hair to look kind of crazy. Not only did Kate work her magic and make the pictures look beautiful, but she even offered to do a separate photo shoot the following week (when there wouldn't be as much wind) for free. Kate took time from her schedule to make sure I had the perfect senior portraits which is one of the reasons why she is so amazing. Thank you so much Kate for everything! I absolutely love all of my pictures read more

Kate is hands down the best photographer I have ever worked with. I met her at my close friends wedding that she photographed. I have never had so much fun with a photographer and she made everyone feel super comfortable. She has photographed my son on numerous occasions and her work never disappoints. She makes her shoots so much fun and my 4 year looks forward to seeing her. She has also been able to capture his personality better than anyone who has ever photographed him. I travel for a little over an hour to have her take our pictures and it is well worth it. I would recommend her to anyone! read more

Kate Howard recently photographed my son for his senior pictures. He doesn't normally like his pictures taken, but he loved the results we got from Kate. She is professional, reliable, easy-going, and very creative. Not only is Kate a great photographer, she is a kind and caring person. Our family had known Kate and her family for almost 20 years, and over the years, I have seen develop into a responsible, kind and very smart young lady. I would recommend Kate Howard Photography to anyone looking for those special pictures for any special occasion. read more

Ceclya went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she bring my ideas to life exactly how I imagined, but she also helped me figure out what I truly wanted. Throughout the process, she took the time to talk with me, listen to what was going on in my life, and somehow incorporated those personal pieces into the décor in such a meaningful and beautiful way. She's incredibly easy to work with, extremely kind, and genuinely cares about her clients. She accommodated me every step of the way and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.
