We did both our engagement shoot with them and our wedding photos. They worked hard to get artful, emotional shots, and we're constantly impressed with the way they captured everything we'd hoped for! Neither of us felt very comfortable going into the photos, as we don't often feel photogenic, but they guided us into positions and helped us to feel at ease through all of the times we had together.

She arrived about 15 minutes early and started taking pictures and checking on lighting. The day was such a blur for me and I am usually the one who snaps pictures but I wasn't able take any. It was such a treat to have Kastle send me a link to all edited shots the next day. It was great to be in the moment, yet have someone take pictures so that we can have memories from the day! I definitely plan on using Kastle again for future shoots and events!

Joanna Monger was recommended to us by our venue's owner, Sharon. Upon viewing her portfolio, I was…read moremesmerized by the authenticity that was captured in her photography; they featured genuine, beautiful moments. They looked like lovely pictures of real, happy people - not overly-processed and cinematic. This is exactly the type of style I wanted for our micro-wedding. I generally dislike having my photo taken, and I'm notorious among my friends and family for refusing to be photographed during events. In spite of that, naturally I expected to endure many pictures on my wedding day. Even with my reservations, it all passed so quickly and easily! No feelings of overwhelm, exhaustion, frustration, or impatience. To begin with, we had a Zoom call to serve as our introduction. My distaste for being seen digitally extends to video chats, but Joanna immediately helped put me at ease. She is an expert in her field and specializes in people who are less comfortable with having their photo taken. She offered logistical support in planning our day, as well as the emotional support that comes with having an ally who can understand your position and work with you. She is so kind and personable, which is perfect for those of us who are a little more on the timid side. In terms of the day of, she was already at the venue well before the rest of us arrived. In between taking some get-ready shots, she even helped my family member get into a very tight-fitting dress. I genuinely don't know if we could have wrangled that zipper up without Joanna's help! After that, she gave a brief lesson to my person-of-honor, showing how to properly fluff out my dress's long train behind me. Additionally, I noticed she was skilled with remembering the names of our close family and wedding-party members. Joanna is so organized and swift with her camera. Despite beginning our ceremony a little later than scheduled, she managed to shoot every photo we wanted within our tight timeframe of just two hours - with a few minutes to spare, too! She's also great at giving clear direction to help improve positioning and posing. And it all flew by so fast. She had our photos ready with astonishing speed (just one week later!), and they were just as wonderful as I had hoped! These are exactly what I wished our wedding pictures would look like. I'm so happy with the variety of different shots Joanna managed to capture, and I'm in disbelief of how well they turned out. I couldn't be happier with the service she provided to us on our special day. I would highly recommend her to anybody, but especially to others who might be less confident in front of the camera.

She puts…read moreyou right at ease with her humorous and kind personality, and knows exactly where to place you for the best photo. In our first meeting, she asked about areas of my body I didn't like so she could angle me appropriately and avoid the usual awkward pics. I did a Boudoir photo shoot with her for my husband's wedding gift and she captured all the best of me while still making feel beautiful in my own skin. Our wedding was such an amazing day and Joanna made a schedule to keep us on track and got EVERY photo we asked for. Choosing our pictures for the final printed album was a breeze and well worth the wait! I cannot recommend her enough! I am forever grateful for finding her on Google and taking a meeting with her! I knew within the first 15 minutes that she would take wonderful care of me and my husband on our day! Thank you Joanna!

Kendall took the time to listen to what I wanted, after that she applied her many talents to create images I will treasure for years. We met up to talk about themes and ideas and her excitement is contagious. Even after that, she was always available to answer all my questions; so by the day of the shoot, I was at ease and knew what I was getting into. The shoot was amazing beautiful views, champagne, scrumptious nibbles, expert make up and hair- I felt so pampered! After that I just took her queues and had a blast! The time flew by and the shots she showed me were amazing, I didn't know I could photograph like that! A few weeks later, we met up to go over the images and she showed me how to use the private online gallery to view, share, and order additional prints. The photos are beautiful and sexy, I have a gift for my husband and a keepsake for myself. I cannot thank Kendall enough and will definitely be back next year!

Back in December my fiancé and I won a free photo shoot from this photographer. We spent the week…read morerallying our friends and family to earn "likes" for Alana's page, to get the word out about her business. We won! We were so excited and immediately started trying to book our session. After weeks with no response we finally got a hold of her and scheduled for February. The night before our shoot she canceled on us. Things come up and we understood. I wrote to ask when she was available to reschedule. Again, no response. After another follow up message she selected a date that worked for her at the end of March (after a lot of coxing from me to get something on the books). The day before our shoot we received a message that said, she was sorry but she needed to bump us for another client who was rescheduling their photo session. UNBELIEVABLE!!! I am assuming the entire reason for the contest was to bring in new clients and gain positive publicity for her business. In our case it did the opposite. I have never had such an unprofessional experience with a photographer (and 90% of my job as a producer is working with photographers and videographers). To all of our friends and family who participated in her contest and now "like" her page, I am truly sorry for the recommendation. It is not something I normally do, and something I will never do again for a contest. The cliff notes version: 1.) unprofessional 2.) disorganized 3.) unreliable 4.) Flakey I would think twice before hiring this photographer for an important event!!!
