An absolute pleasure to work with! Beautiful eye with colors and angles. Would definitely recommend!
GUEST




Kiamarie was not only my photographer but she was my psychologist on and before my wedding day! She continued to remind me how awesome it is to have found the man of my dreams and kept me level headed on the big day and that shows in the photos. My husband and I enjoyed working with her and would chose her all over again if we could! Our pictures are incredible!
GUEST




Not only was KSS attentive and professional- their work shows more quality than I could have imagined. Each picture captures the exact moment from our wedding day. The creativity and positive friendly demeanor was a delight!! All around excellent company!

I was lucky enough to find Kiamarie through a friend like many people do. I had been looking at photographers and had, without fail, found that the ones I liked were way out of my price range. I was amazed to find that Kia's portfolio had even better pictures at a much more reasonable price. Everything that followed verified my hunch that I had found a photographer who was truly special. Kia provides a clear view of her services with everything clearly spelled out. She started making us feel less nervous from our first meeting:)
We had engagement pictures done and I was a bit frazzled with hair and makeup complications, but she was able to help my then fiancee and I relax in the first five minutes.
Kia posted samples of our pictures within six hours after the shoot! I am not exaggerating when I say that I had people who have never spoken to me on facebook messaging me to let me know what beautiful pictures we were lucky to have.
Kia continued to be a calming presence who responded to any of my little questions within an hour or two in the months leading up to the wedding.
On the day of the wedding, she was able to wrangle bridemaids, ornry flower girls and delicately manage stressful family dynamics. I felt like she was always making sure I was ok. I felt totally confident that no matter what else was going on, I knew she would be there getting amazing pictures.
Our samples from after our wedding are absolutely beautiful. Kia is so skilled at finding the pictures that happen when you don't expect to be photographed. She captures the raw emotion that comes out in those moments when you aren't thinking about being photographed. I know that we will treasure these pictures forever.
Overall, I just can't say enough good things about our experience...

We searched long and hard for a photographer who we felt comfortable with and who had the vision we were looking for. We could not have asked for anything more once we saw our photos. KSS surpassed our expectations. We were so happy with every aspect of the photos. She had such a great attitude and was so easy to work with. We would recommend her with out hesitation . Thank you so much Kiamarie for giving us the photos that we dreamed of. We look forward to looking back at them for the years to come.

Kia is the best!! Throughout my wedding planning Kia was so helpful - I sent her many texts at all hours of the day asking her questions about bridesmaids colors, hair, nose rings, and any other little worries that I had, Kia was always quick to answer! She even referred me to my DJ! She showed up the day of my wedding to chaos and stepped right in with her calm, reassuring attitude. Kia made sure to get every single shot and more that my husband and I requested and they all look AMAZING!! I would absolutely, without any hesitation recommend KSS to future brides, she is a wonderful photographer with a great personality!

Kia and Dan were amazing! They had great ideas to take very artistic photos! KSS photography was the best priced photographer in all of NJ (I researched for days).What really convinced me that we made the right choice was the rapid responsiveness of Kia when I inquired on her website. She called me back in minutes! How efficient! Other companies called back days later. Kia is so personable and even after our wedding, still has my name programmed in her cell phone. I would definately recommend KSS photography to anyone! In fact, I have recommended this company to quite a few people already!

We searched long and hard for a photographer for our September wedding which fit our style, personality and budget! Kia fit into each category. Her work is absolutely gorgeous and she is super knowledgeable. I texted her often about ideas and concerns and she was always poised. After the wedding, Kia posted numerous pictures to Facebook, giving us a sneak-peak and left us wanting more! We were truly pleased with her professionalism and the finished product! Thanks so much Kia for capturing our many wedding memories!

I highly recommend Kia, she is a wonderful photographer! She posted pictures within 24 hours after the wedding on facebook which means a lot. I was already on my honeymoon and could not stop looking at them. She is very creative and our pictures turned out amazing! Friends and family kept calling me saying they were very impressed and I got so many compliments that they should be in a bridal magazine. Not only is Kia talented, but she has a great personality! She is friendly and easy to talk to. You will love her as soon as you meet her! Thank you Kia for all your hardwork, you are great to work with!
GUEST




Kia and Susan were wonderful photographers. Not only were they professional, they helped us when we needed them, even if it had nothing to do with our photos! We got our sample (40) photos the week after the wedding, and I LOVE them! KSS photography has gotten so many compliments on their work, I highly recommend!!!
GUEST




I cannot say enough good things about Kia, she was just wonderful! When we met with her for our first consultation we knew she would do a great job with shooting our wedding. When we looked at all her sample albums, all the different styles of the albums as well as the photos in them we were very pleased. When we had any questions she was so quick to respond. On the day of the wedding, Kia and her assistant arrived on time (actually a little earlier, which was great!). I was running a little late, but Kia did all the other shots she needed (the bridesmaids, my dress, flowers, etc.) while her assistant shot the guys at the park. I was so nervous about running late and I still hadn't eaten anything, but Kia, being so kind and professional, insisted I sit and eat really quick. If we needed any help, Kia didn't hesitate, we had such a hard time doing the corset of my dress, we are so thankful Kia helped. As crazy as preparing for a wedding is, especially the day of, Kia was relaxed and that helped to keep me calm, she has such a great personality, always smiling. It was a real pleasure to work with her. The day after the wedding, she already had some samples up on the computer for us to view, they were AMAZING!! So pleased! Me, my husband, and everyone in my family just loves the way they came out. Kia's creativity really made our pictures look wonderful! Thank you so much for capturing all the special moments from our wedding day, we are so pleased and had a blast working with you!

I love love love my pictures and I get soooooooo many complements and people can't believe that the picture were taken on the Atlantic City beach in Jersey they are so bright and clear. Kia was amazing and got all the right shots.

Kiamarie was such a pleasure to work with. We were beyond happy with all of the pictures she took. She truly captured every moment and created beautiful memories for us. She is incredibly down to earth and was a joy to have by my side on my wedding day! She handled all of the craziness of the day with ease and made taking the pictures enjoyable even at hectic times. I would highly recommend KSS! Kiamarie is creative, thoughtful and very hard working!
GUEST




Kiamarie is BRILLIANT at what she does. Every single picture taken was beautiful and she really knows how to capture the moment in all of the pictures. It was a real pleasure getting to work with someone as kind and knowledgeable as Kiamarie. She is up to date on the most current trends and has been more than generous with my husband and me. The night of our wedding, Kiamarie immediately put up pictures on my Facebook so friends and family could see. She also gave us poster
with pictures if us, a video, and several guest books with pictures from our wedding for us to send with our thank you cards. Kiamarie has the best prices around, too! I feel like I also made a friend from this experience. I would recommend Kiamarie to every bride out there :)

KSS was an amazing photographer!! Our wedding morning was so chaotic and we ran completely behind! Even though we were behind she was still right on target thru the chaos and took beautiful pictures even with everyone running around! She was super sweet and accommodated everything we wanted and beyond! Our goal was to enjoy our cocktail hour and again even running behind she got everyone to the cocktail hour to enjoy it!! She took soooo many pictures and I feel she captured everything even the things I missed!!! Anytime someone would use their personal camera for a picture she was right behind them capturing every pose! I provided a list of a few things I wanted but I felt she knew exactly what to do what to shoot and did everything super quick...which was great for people like my father and father in law who don't exactly enjoy taking photos!! And I must also add the editing of the photos has been amazing so far and can actually say for once I love how everyone and everything looks! May be some time away but I will definitely be back for maternity pictures!!!!
GUEST




KSS Photography shot our engagement pictures this past August, and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. From the initial meeting to the final product... our experience was nothing but remarkable! Their work is fun, spontaneous and innovative. I hold no reservations when I say "I absolutely LOVE KSS Photography and recommend them 100%"
GUEST




Kia is very creative.
She practically does everything for you. Just follow her directions and you will have GREAT wedding pictures.
An awesome bonus is that she post pictures (if you would like) on Facebook as she edits them so you can see some of your pictures within 24 hours. No waiting months and months to see them.
GUEST




I was reffered to KSS Photography by a friend and it was the best decision I made booking with them. Kiamarie is a pleasure to work with, very kind and professional. I could tell right away she absolutely loves what she does. She did my engagement photos and my wedding. The pictures came out amazing and my favorite part was when she posted some of them the next day on my facebook. I was so excited to see the samples and so were my friends and family. I am so happy with the results. Thank you so much Kiamarie.
GUEST




Where do I even begin.... When we first met with Kia we knew from her personality and her work, that she would be the perfect person to shoot our wedding. Before the wedding, we worked with her to shoot our engagement photos, where she helped us pick our location, positions and etc. They turned out FANTASTIC. One year later, she shot our wedding where, I must say that just seeing the proofs alone made my jaw drop. They were PERFECT.
Outside of being our phototographer, Kia turned into someone who can be called a friend. The day of my wedding she went above and beyond her duties when an emergency happened. She no longer was just my photographer she became a very good friend. All I can say is that for any occassion that needs a photographer I will be sure to use or refer her and KSS Photography.

I would first like to say Kia say is a wonderful person. We were recommended to use her from someone else and ever since my wife and her met her for our engagement pictures we have maintained a close relationship through and after the wedding. The professionalism is excellent! The work is excellent. Our engagement photos were beautiful! Kia did our wedding 11/7/10 and on 11/8/10 we had 55 sample photos sent to us. The sample pics were amazing and I'm beyond confident the rest of the photos are beautiful. Her work is organized, quick. and BEYOND CREATIVE! She will definitely be using her when my wife is pregnant to take pregnancy photos :)
GUEST




We were just married and absolutely loved our photographers. We can't say enough about them! We had some of our proofs posted online the very next day! She was very organized, quick, kind and our pictures look great!
GUEST




Working with Kia was such a wonderful experience! She made my day that much more special. She was always where she needed to be and took the most beautiful pictures. I could not have asked for a better photographer. She went above and beyond her call of duty and had all of my pictures done within 6 days of the actual wedding! You can not ask for better service than that!
GUEST




Kia was a wonderful photographer, she was on time and very accomodating. Kia knew how to position me for my photos & worked well with everyone in the photos with us. I would recommend her services to any bride, VERY PROFESSIONAL!!! I was very happy with my photo album and copies of my pictures also.
GUEST




I used KSS Photography for my wedding that took place on June 12, 2011, and I could not be happier. Kia did an amazing job at my wedding, not only was she professional she was also very personable, there was nothing i couldn't ask or discuss with her. I received so many compliments on the wedding samples she posted.
If you are a future bride in search of a photographer, I highly reccomend KSS Photography.
GUEST




While very nice and courteous up front, the end result was unfavorable. We scheduled both our engagement and wedding photography with this company. Our engagement photos were good given the value of the product, but our wedding photos were extremely disappointing. 90% of our shots were taken with an extreme angle, and many shots that were suggested were not taken at all (including shots of the groom and groomsmen walking down the aisle). Upon receipt of the photos, we voiced our concerns but received a defensive and unfriendly response. Furthermore, we were ensured that the photos would be re-edited to adjust for these errors and over 4 months later we have yet to receive any further edits.
Hire at your own risk.
Vendor response to review
Oh Marian sweetie I'm sad & confused as to the reason you would write this being as though your Brother is 1 of our employees & you are 1 of our highlighted weddings & have an album on here? You had asked for only a few images to have additional edits but you did not respond to our emails indicating exactly which images you would like additional editing on? You have also failed to return your flash drive to us that has your original digital proofs stored on so that we may add any new edits to it. How can we edit when we don't know what to edit or have the ability to store the new edits? Furthermore I expressed to both you and your husband at the wedding the manner in which your videographers were in our way and blocking us from obtaining certain shots as well as overexposing your pictures by their overbearing use of bright lights but your husband laughed it off. Regardless, you THANKED us for your "beautiful" pictures and posted that to the KSS company Facebook page! Your review just blows us away? If you were not 100% happy with your engagement photos then why hire us to shoot your wedding as well sweetie that doesn't make any sense? They must have been to your liking to bring us on a 2nd time! Regardless, since you still do not respond to any of our emails; we wish you all the best!

After so many years in the business, it gives a renewed energy to meet new pros that are fun and who are caught up in their career. Some do what they do to collect the check. Some do it because they love what they do. I felt Kia was there for the joy of photography. It was truly a pleasure, a breath of fresh air, to work with KSS and I look forward to seeing more of their studio in the future... especially considering our studios are now next to each other!! :-)
