Her attention to detail was spectacular. She was accommodating through multiple postponements due to Covid-19. She brought fun energy to both our engagement pictures and wedding day while still remaining very professional. All expectations were stated and communication was easy. Most of all, our photos are so dreamy- they capture all of the sentimental and funny moments of our big day in a way that is polished but still so authentic to us.

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 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!

Wow - the most beautiful wedding and Anna captured all the moments…read moreand more. Anna exceeded our expectations!!

When looking for a photographer for our son's senior pictures there was no doubt she was the one to use! She spent time to get to know our son and find out what HE liked. Doing this she was able to capture him perfectly. We had a great time at different locations capturing him. When we got our pictures back we were even more impressed at the work she did. We highly recommend Kim and will be using her again when our daughter gets her senior pictures done.

As I saw pictures being posted there was one photographer who's work always impressed me, KJay Photography. After working with Kim it became apparent why her photos are so amazing. She gets to know her subjects, she provides great suggestions to get the shots you want. She has wonderful locations understands the importance of lighting and works seamlessly and creatively to get hundreds of fabulous shots. My son who wasn't really looking forward to having his picture taken, actually had fun and couldn't believe it went so fast. I am grateful to KJay Photography for capturing this milestone in my sons life. I absolutely treasure the photos and my daughter can not wait until her turn this summer!

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 was always quick to respond via email, outgoing, and super efficient. We still have family members who come up to us and comment on how great she was, not only due to the quality of photos, but also because because of her personality. She is super creative, and takes a lot of great candid shots. She even got our edited photos (over 1000 pictures!) back to us less than 2 weeks after the wedding. I also liked working with this company because you aren't required to buy a big expensive package with an engagement session, photo book, etc, so this helps keep the cost down. I highly recommend Ari Rosenthal Photography.

Now that we've had time to review our actual photos, we sadly have to update our initial review…read more Going into the wedding we were so excited to work with Chris. But once we really took a look at the photos, we realized we got very little of what we wanted. Before the event, Chris seemed meticulous. He met with us twice and asked detailed questions about our family trees, and we explained who the really super important guests were, aka the guests we wanted lots of photos with. Looking back at the pics, it seems like Chris either didn't hear the majority of our requests, or he heard them and was just too overwhelmed to handle them. During our meetings he stressed a few really important photos, like one with the groom's parents and the bride and groom, one with the bride's parents, photos of the elderly relatives whose presence at the event we'd want to cherish...also his personal favorite of the bridesmaids all looking one way and the bride, in focus, looking at the camera. Somehow, Chris failed at delivering those photos at a high quality - the ones he was passionate about. Most of them are unusable. Chris is definitely a nice guy, but his work quality wasn't what we were expecting, especially for a wedding that was essentially all in one building (no frantic driving across town, searching for parking, etc.). If you are looking for someone to shoot a very, very low key event or a wedding without many moving parts or complications, working with him will probably work. Anything higher stress than that I would recommend working with someone else.

Kara did an amazing job with my professional headshot-style photo shoot…read more I wasn't even sure what I was looking for, so she took some time at the beginning to discus the traditional versus "new wave" style of business pictures. With LinkedIn and social media being such a big deal now a days, you better look profesh, and you better look good while you're doing it. She made everything stress free for me and guided me through the process. I'm not used to professional pictures, but she made me feel comfortable and confident during the shoot. Tried on some different outfits with some different backgrounds at her studio (which is lovely and nicely decorated) The day was painless and casual, she had a quick turnaround process and gave me a stunning final result, including a great editing process for some general blemish removal, etc. Would highly recommend Kara not just for her professional photography skills, but her personality and her ability to make you feel at ease. She handles family portraits, weddings and adorable baby shoots, too!

She took our maternity photos and even when we were shooting the photos & she'd show me a sneak peek of the back of the camera, I was floored at the lighting and beauty she captured (made me feel way prettier than I think I really am!) and those were the raw images! I was so happy with our maternity shoot, and can't wait to see the pictures of our newborn boy!!! She is the BEST!
