    If you are looking for a photographer - look no further than Kat. She is exceptional at what she does and, furthermore, she is an exceptional human being. From the minute my husband and I met Kat, we felt like we'd known her for years and we trusted her completely to capture our love - her energy and passion for her work are completely infectious.

    Kat LOVES her clients, she loves what she does, and it shows in every single picture. Every photo is full of all the emotion, love, and celebration of our wedding day - every photo takes me and my husband back to the happiest day of our lives - and we are so grateful to Kat for capturing that for us! She is the very best.

    I can finally say from personal experience that Kat is the BEST photographer out there. My husband and I finally had our shoot with Kat and it was even better than I expected. I stupidly didn't take the opportunity to ditch my wedding photographer (who was completely awful, I will NEVER recommend her) and go with Kat. I have been kicking myself since our wedding because of it. And obsessing over Kat's wedding photos of all her clients, SUPER jealous of all of them. Just tugs at my heart seeing it because I didn't have a good experience whatsoever for my wedding. However, thank GOD I was able to book her for our 1-year anniversary shoot!! Over the past year+ she has actually become a friend of mine, which she never had to do. But she made such an incredibly natural effort to stay in touch, as did I. She is phenomenal, an incredible person with an incredible talent for photography. She so effortlessly captures the true love and emotion people have for one another, whether it be couples, family, dogs, beaches, skies, etc. My husband hates taking photos but even he was so happy during our shoot. Kat Hanafin is incredible, through and through. When we eventually have children, she will be my first call for a pregnancy shoot and family shoots. I will be recommending Kat Hanafin to every single one of my friends and family members for their weddings. She is just so fun and so talented. You can never go wrong if you choose her! I swear by her. Words cannot explain how amazing of a photographer she is!

    Kat is an amazing photographer and I would and have recommended her to many of my friends and colleagues. She always manages to capture those special moments, the ones that aren't staged or arranged. Her images captured perfectly the essence of each of my children. You wait on pins and needles to see the proofs because you know they are going to be amazing. She is also extremely flexible, we had to cancel because of rain, then had issues around the kids scheduled but she managed to get us in before the last of the summer sun. These are photos to treasure for a lifetime.

    Kat Hanafin shot my neighbor's wedding that was held in our yards. After viewing how beautiful and unique the photos were, I knew I wanted her to photograph my family. Kat has an incredible eye and in the three times she has shot my family, her pictures have never failed to capture each of my four childrens' personality. Hers are photographs I cherish.

    My continued use of Kat as our family photographer is an obvious testament to her professionalism and talent. I have and will continue to recommend her to anyone who asks for a photographer, wedding or otherwise!

    Kat has become known as our "family photographer" ...from our seaside wedding, baby pictures of our daughter, family photos, to our recent five anniversary event. We can not thank her enough for capturing our family milestone event after event. She is professional, creative, talented, kind and giving. We trust only her to capture our lives in photos.

    Kat was the photographer for my brother's wedding. She was amazing!! Her photographs truly captured their personalities and the beauty of the day. She is extremely talented, very professional and fun to be around!! She has also taken many of our family portraits. My children adore her and my family looks forward to receiving the pictures every year. I have several of her canvases in my home that I have received countless compliments on. Kat's photographs are gorgeous and artistic. She works with her clients to capture their special moments and really listens to them. She has become a dear friend and she will be taking photographs of our entire family for many years I hope!!

    Kat is amazing! I fell in love with a wedding she shot while I was looking for photographers in the summer of 2011. I knew I wanted her to shoot out beach wedding once I saw that. And meeting her made me even more sure she was the right person for us! She's nice, easy to talk to and she loves dogs like my husband and I do! Our engagement and wedding pictures are perfection. I know Kat puts everything into her photography and you can tell by the product. I just love looking at all our pictures.

    Not only is the product perfect, Kat is professional and friendly. She was on top of things at our wedding and helped so much. Kat becomes more than your wedding photographer, she becomes a friend!

    I would recommend her to anyone looking for a fabulous photographer and a genuinely nice person.

    Working with Kat doesn't mean you're just getting a photographer, you're getting a friend! From the beginning, when I met her at her studio, I was immediately comfortable with her and knew from just the few suggestions she had, she knew what she was doing. Living across the country from Kat made no impact on our relationship, as she was always available by email, phone or even skype! As a bit of a procrastinator myself, Kat was able to keep me in line and always went with the flow - her flexibility in her work ethic was just what I needed, even down to the day of the wedding when trolley's weren't where they were supposed to be, Kat got things handled and everyone in the right place without a second though. Working with Kat is like hanging out with a friend, my husband and I enjoyed every second of being with her from taking our engagement pictures to viewing the final wedding pictures. On top of her awesome personality, her work speaks for itself and the pictures are amazing. Her talent shines through in every picture, and we will cherish them for life. I promise you will not be disappointed when you work with Kat!

    We LOVED working with Kat. She went from being our photographer to our friend very quickly. She obviously loves what she does and it shows in her work.

    Kat was an absolute joy to work with. She is so talented and made our wedding day stress free when it came to photography. We trusted her completely and she came through 110%. The photos are amazing, she has a gift for capturing those true unguarded moments. We will cherish our photos always.

    Kat Hanafin is more than a professional and talented photographer; she really put her whole self into our wedding, going above and beyond to help make our day go off without a hitch. She bought into our vision and really helped us put the missing pieces together. The day before the wedding she came by and spent some time talking about the plans for the next day, which was so kind and helped put my mind at ease. The day of, she was wonderful - my family loved her and we had so much fun together. Our pictures were beautiful and I feel like they really reflect who we are. She captured some really wonderful moments - not just of us, but of our friends and guests, too.

    Kat was amazing to work with- she's friendly and fun and professional. She captured the feel of our wedding perfectly. We love our pictures, they are even better than we imagined. We get compliments still to this day about how great our pictures are. I would recommend Kat to anyone and know they would be 100 percent satisfied. I Am excited that she does kids/family pictures as well, we would love to have her take pictures of our family.

    Kat Hanafin photography is up and coming, but won't be so for long. This girl is absolutely oozing talent - ok, that sounds weird. Please though, just check out her blog (http://kathanafin.com/wordpress/) to see an array of amazing pictures, as well as get a sense for this funny, amazingly down-to-earth and incredibly talented artist. Kat was so generous with her time from the get-go, and it was a joy to be able to spend my day with her by my side. If that wasn’t enough, I saw the pictures, shared the pictures, and haven’t stopped hearing from everyone I know (and all of their friends) just how amazing her pictures are. Creative, candid, in the moment is how I describe her style. Her work tells the story of the day, and I am so happy to have her pictures to remind me and my husband of all the fun we had on our wedding day.

    We have had Kat take family portraits twice and will continue to make her a part of our family story as our children grow.
