BK Rose is undeniably the best in the business. We hired Kat and Brett for both our engagement and…read morewedding photos, and we had an amazing experience every step of the way. Kat immediately made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and completely ourselves during our engagement shoot. Her attention to detail is phenomenal, especially when it came to all the little things I told her I wanted -- like my very specific request for our photos to feel grand and epic, but also romantic lol. She was always available by text or phone whenever we had questions or concerns. Weeks after our engagement shoot, I noticed something off about my dress, and she had edited photos back to me within hours to help solve the issue. Kat has such a vibrant energy about her that makes the photoshoots so fun! And that's before even getting to her incredible photography skills. She knows all the hidden gems around the city, how to navigate crowded locations to get THE shot, and how to capture a wide variety of moments while maintaining incredible quality. The photos truly speak for themselves. Kat and Brett together are an incredible duo. They seem to instinctively know what shot the other is trying to get, and it was cool to watch them flow together so seamlessly. I think that definitely contributes to their fantastic work. I'm not even sure what our next big event will be, but whatever it is, we're already looking forward to having a reason to hire Kat and Brett again!

We used Kat to do family/newborn photos when we had our 2nd child. We hadn't done family photos…read morebefore and Kat was so patient and helpful with answering all the questions I had and letting me try on outfits she had in the client wardrobe to see if anything would work for me before the photoshoot. She had some beautiful options but I ended up going with a dress of my own. Kat is truly a child/baby whisperer and was able to soothe my 3 week old to get her to cooperate for pictures and got my shy toddler to smile for photos! We received our pictures within 2 days of our photoshoot and they are nothing short of incredible. We have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful and stunning they look. I would highly recommend using BK Rose Studio for photos and know we will be reaching out again when we need more family photos taken!

I have NEVER seen pictures like Steve's in all my years. BEST decision we made was to have them do our wedding photography and video. Now known as Valen Studios .... you cannot beat this team. God bless you all and thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for saving our daughter's dream wedding in pictures, photo montage, and video.

She has an amazing talent for capturing those special moments, which isn't easy when some of your subjects are 3 years old (in our case). The images she has taken of our family will be cherished memories for years to come. We could not recommend her any more strongly if we tried!

Lauren promptly answered any questions we had- even taking the extra measures to check in with us on the days leading up to what was a rescheduled photo shoot due to weather. She provided ample rescheduling dates and once the weather decided to cooperate, we managed to get in a solid amount of poses and backdrops at the nature center in Schaumburg. She also sent out our gallery the very next day! Awesome!! The photo session itself was unlike any other experience we've had with a photographer. Somehow, she managed to coax genuine smiles and giggles from us which led to super quality shots. Will definitely book Honeybrown again!!

She quickly made herself part of the background. The kids didn't even notice she was there, and she was able to get lots of great candid shots! My son wasn't feeling great, but Alina had some toys and props with her to help distract him and also had some tricks up her sleeve to get a fussy 3-year-old to smile! She got the CD to us by the following week. With other photographers, we had to wait at least a month and usually had to pay through the roof to get prints without a watermark. Alina's pricing was very reasonable and we were very happy with our pictures. We will definitely be calling her in the future.
