Kate Ashbrook Photography was ABSOLUTELY wonderful. I have a strong type A personality so I formally interviewed over 8 photographers in the Charlotte area prior to selecting Kate, not including the informal interviews at all of the bridal shows. I was VERY particular about my photographer selection. To me, it is one of the MOST important vendor selections of the wedding. These are the images that you will look at to relive the day for the rest of your life. I originally met Kate and her family at the Carolina Bride Show. Brian and I drove out to meet her at her studio. It was important to me to find someone who was AFFORDABLE, fun and nice to work with (we were going to be with this woman for a couple days since she was doing our engagement session, bridal portrait AND wedding) and produced pictures that were NOT the standard wedding pictures. I had been dragging Brian to all of the interviews and when we departed her studio and I told him she was the one we wanted to photograph our special day! She was fun and willing to go outside the box (for example, she was willing to incorporate our dogs into our engagement session in multiple locations in uptown Charlotte and in the NoDa areas). Again, I had interviewed MANY photographers and her prices were the most competitive for what I was looking for in a package. My mother feel in love with Kate at my bridal portrait session and that was ANOTHER plus. Kate asked me if it was ok to have her mother cover the wedding day with her and I was VERY happy with that decision. The two of them were AMAZING and everyone in my family LOVED them. At times, you didn't even know they were there to capture the moment and yet directly after the ceremony they were the ones in charge, NO QUESTIONS and again I LOVED that they were in charge. We have large and loud families and these two petite women had everyone in place and pictures flowing quickly.

I would highly recommend Kate to anyone! She was absolutely AMAZING!
