Karen Ard Photography

We chose Karen Ard as our wedding photographer for more than one reason. Besides producing beautiful photographs, for which we have received many compliments, she makes her clients feel very comfortable. We first met Karen when she was our friends' wedding photographer, and we were amazed at how relaxed she made everyone feel. We knew we wanted her product but also her personality and professionalism for our big day. Besides the photos, we have been told multiple times our wedding album is the nicest and most beautiful album people have ever seen. We are very happy with Karen and her products!

Karen is hands down the very best!!!! We used her for our engagement photos and wedding. She is so nice and easy to talk to. She made is feel so comfortable and really helped our love shine through her AMAZING pictures. Her artistic eye and vision really captured our special day. I'm so happy we went with her. We did a lot of looking and actually got burned by an other photography company a few months before the wedding. Finding Karen was a blessing and I made friend in the process!

Karen is the absolute best! She has the best eye and truly captures the best candid moments. I absolutely recommend Karen to anyone getting married!

Our realtor referred Karen to us (mutual friends). I love Karen's work. She sees the world through different eyes just like we do. It was great to have her know what we wanted for our wedding and put that into her photography. She is a creative person and sweet. I shared alot with her on our special day. She makes you feel like you've known each other for years and that's what you need. A friend that will take you vision and make it their own.

Karen was the absolute best photographer and the sweetest I might add. She met all of our needs and was so much fun to work with. I can't wait to schedule more sessions in the future with her! She will definitely become a family photgrapher for all of our future picture taking needs. She is so talented (I mean just look at her blog and website!) Thank you Karen!!!

Karen is amazing and the best photographer to work with! We had such a blast working with her!! Thank you Karen for making our day extra special!!

Works very hard to make sure she is taking the picture the client wants, not what she wants. She guides and suggests, and it is clear she loves what she does. And her pictures are amazing

Karen is a unique artist. She is not an ordinary photographer who looks through a lens and snaps a picture of what the lens sees. Karen sees the subject first -- through her own eyes -- through her own personal experiences -- then, with heart. She then uses the camera lens as a tool (yet an extension of her) and what she captured in her own mind's eye. The results are nothing short of spectacular!! A gifted artist...

when you are comfortable with your photographer, it really shows in the pictures. our engagement pictures that we took with karen are fantastic! she even captured us with our two dogs and all of us came out looking great :)

I would recommend Karen because she is thorough, creative, and a pleasure to work with. I told her what I wanted, and the final product was even better than I had imagined

Wedding photography can be such a cookie cutter business, but Karens work is so unique to each person, it feels like she spent weeks getting to know them and understand them, her images transend to a level of almost fine art.

She is seriously one of the most talented photographers in the area. The way she connects with people and captures them and those truly special moments is precious and so rare! I am constantly wowed by her.

The traditional standard wedding photos have never appealed to me. Karen's photos are infused with spontaneity and naturalness. They are truly a work of art

I am one of her brides and we were thrilled not only with the final images but with how she was there for us every moment capturing things I didn't even know she got. We cherish our album. Thank you Karen!

Her photos, whether posed or candid, perfectly capture the emotion and beauty of the moment. She's not just talented, she's gifted. Phenomenal

Karen photographed my wedding. She did an amazing job and everyone who see's my pics comment on how great the photography is! Then second, they noticed my dress ;-)

Karen Ard is a very talented photographer. Her body work is absolutely gorgeous and she is always such a pleasure to work with. A true artist who captures beautiful pictures.

Karen was a blast to work with! When a video and photo team can mesh well together it makes for stunning memories for the stars of the day, The BRIDE & GROOM. She was graceful, experienced, and had an amazing creative eye. Hope to work together again soon!

Capturing style and elegance with beauty and grace, Karen Ard is a fantastic photographer! I very much enjoyed working with her on a summer, Ventura wedding. She captured every moment as if she knew it was coming and was always prepared for an impromptu shot. Truly a pleasure!
