As a professional wedding photographer, I wasn't sure how easy it was going to be for me to say…read more"yes" to OUR wedding photographer. Having known Chris since High School and having worked with him as an assistant for a wedding he photographed, I knew who he was, I knew his style and I knew his equipment. I was comfortable knowing all of the above, so my now husband, Justin and I went to meet him to discuss options to have him as our photographer. Before walking into the meeting, I had practically made my mind up already that he was who we would book, but I wanted Justin to meet him and I wanted to get those "warm fuzzies" from our conversation. After the meeting, we were thrilled to choose Chris to photograph our big day! First came our engagement shoot; like I said, I am also a photographer, but my goal was to act as though I had never held a camera in my life. Chris and his wife April took the reigns and helped Justin and I with the entire shoot from start to finish. When we saw the final product, we were over the moon!! With the engagement pictures out of the way, we certainly looked forward to what our photos would look like from our BIG day! Prior to our wedding day, Chris took the time to get every detail straight regarding wants/needs to ensure our wedding day was seamless. He showed up with a list on our wedding day of everything that we had discussed! During our ceremony and reception, Chris and his assistant were all over the place but never came across as invasive. In fact, at times I forgot they were there taking pictures (even when they were right in front of my face!). What an amazing time we had! Our wedding day came and went, but Chris is the one who will forever help us to cherish our "perfect" day in the form of his artwork. Our photos are stunning and our friends and family can't say enough good things about them. I would certainly recommend Chris for anyone to use as their wedding photographer, he was and I'm sure always will be, phenomenal. Thanks Chris!

When my wife, Brit, and I were initially searching for a photographer we asked to meet with Chris…read morefirst because he had a great portfolio. After meeting him in person, I was so certain on having him shoot for our wedding that I declined to meet with other photographers. What stood out to me about Chris was that he dispelled my preconception of wedding photographers as intrusive, and he took great pride and care in his craft that went beyond just working the camera. During the wedding he blended in perfectly and captured beautiful, candid moments of us and our guests. During the still shots, Chris was precise and detail-oriented and the results were fantastic. I was very proud to share his work with our family. Working with Chris was one of the easiest and most enjoyable aspects of our wedding experience and I highly recommend his thoughtful and talented approach to capturing forever memories.

Kim is the best! She is very well trained, has a lot of experience, and impeccable people skills…read more Kim continually stays breast of the current techniques and equipment in the photography field. She can often be seen attending expos, lectures, and workshops. I have many of her photographs in my collection. She has also taken my professional profile picture. Her wedding and graduation photos are thoughtful. She captures the essence of the moment while at the same time meeting the expectations of her customers. No matter what the customer requests Kim handles the portfolio professionally. No dissatisfied customers that I am aware of! I highly recommend her for your special occasion. If you want an honest, stress the word honest, and reliable photographer, call Kim!

Our family assembled this past Christmas, and I wanted to celebrate with some photos. We found Kim…read moreBova nearby, and she gave some wonderful suggestions for both an outdoor and indoor shoot. We wound up shooting indoors due to timing, but it was a pleasure. Kim helped in advance to assist with the color coordination of clothing, and when we arrived, she was very professional and worked with our large group to get all the family shots, the kids, my parents, etc. The resulting photos were really very good, and we were all impressed with the results. I would definitely recommend Kim for weddings, family photos, or portraits. She has a very good eye!

Kat Loughery Photography made my wedding day incredibly memorable from start to finish!! Kat and I…read morehad numerous discussions about my vision and she even met with me at our first look spot to fully embrace what I wanted captured! Communication was easy whether it was through email that included a bunch of questions or a simple text message asking for feedback or an opinion. As soon as we solidified that we would be using Kat's services I was able to share my pinterest board with her and she continued to check in on what ideas I continued to pin. On the day of our wedding she pulled out a binder full of all the photos I had pinned. I loved that she was always on top of it! I booked Kat with two other photographers for around 8 hours of service. Within my package it also included an extra mini photo shoot. I asked Kat to do a secret boudoir shoot with me and although not part of her normal requests she accepted with ease! She made me feel so comfortable during that shoot and created a small album I was able to gift to my husband on the morning of our wedding! It was incredibly special and made me feel confident and sexy to gift to my husband! On the day of the wedding, all three photographers showed up on time and began shooting in the hotel rooms, capturing the little details of my jewelry and personalized champagne flutes. They captured candid moments between my bridesmaids and I and especially with my mom. My mom is such a strong woman and when she gets emotional it is usually a big deal. Kat and her team did not miss a beat and captured those moments for me to look back on! Throughout the day of our wedding, Kat's team was with us every step making each moment continuously special. They froze on the rocks at Lighthouse Point Beach so my husband and I could capture a unique first look experience. We all may have been cold, but I will NEVER forget the memories of all of us laughing together pushing through the chills (and tears!). During some group shots on the carousel they laughed with us during an injury that happened to one of the horses feet! Complete accident, but made for a story to tell in the long run. The ceremony was captured in just the way I asked including accommodating the hard shot of being behind my mom, step father and I to get the shot before we walked out. The reception photos were endless of our guests and my husband and I interacting with family and friends. They captured such FUN memories and even a romantic moment of my husband and I embraced in the love of the day slow dancing with everyone else on the dance floor. Not to mention there may have been a lift or two throughout some of the song choices! By the end of the night I asked what Kat and her team what they were still doing there and they said they were having so much fun! It truly made my night! To this day, Kat still answers my texts and will send any requests I may have whether it's a photo turned from black and white back to color or just simply a quick edit. Thank you SO much for everything and making our greatest day of our lives that much more special!
