Tiny Wedding went amazing

I met Kate and Dom at the wedding expo center and absolutely loved the two of them. They stood out amongst the other photographers with how friendly, nice and how willing they were to work with us. Dom helped with figuring out the perfect package for us considering we were doing a microwedding (20 people). I was bummed at first to hear they were booked for our wedding date but then we got to meet one of their other photographers, Noah. He was so friendly, nice, and easy to work with. We bonded when we took engagement photos. He made taking photos super easy which was great considering we are not the most photogenic couple. To top it all off, right after we booked with Kate Holt Photography, they sent us a package with a wedding planner, vow books, and tips/tricks for wedding planning. It was super awesome and helpful.

Then we were lucky enough to get to work with Noah for our wedding day. He was the ultimate hype man which I really needed. He helped relieve the anxiety of my husband and I. He also helped coordinate a lot of the small details with our venue manager. He shielded me from being seen by my husband before our first look as well as when some of my guests started to arrive. He helped my mom bussel up my dress when my mom could not figure it out. Our family and friends were all extremely impressed with Noah as well. I can’t say thank you enough. Noah’s extremely talented and I hope to work with him again in the future. I just got a sneak peek of the photos and I'm already in love with the photographs he took. I can't wait to see more!

Friendly, fun, and professional group to work with!

There are so many things to consider when searching for a wedding photographer. It can be a daunting decision to make. But from our first virtual meet, it was clear that Kate Holt Photography would provide everything from confidence to professionalism. They were communicative every step along the way, and made the whole process so easy. We loved their bright, natural aesthetic and their amazing team of photographers.

On our wedding day, Gabby was our main photographer, and Noah supported the photo booth. And both were such a pleasure to work and coordinate with. Gabby is so nice, and she makes the difficult job of directing people fun and inviting. Between our free engagement photos and our wedding photos, we had a great time working with her, and the quality of her shots were 5 stars. Noah kept the energy going at the photo booth all night, which is not an easy task either!

The turnaround of photos was unbelievably quick! We got our sneak peek set in just a few days, and the full set not long after that. I would confidently recommend this team to anyone looking for that special photographer for their special day. Thank you to the Kate Holt team for capturing ours!
