Kirsty Edwards Photography, Shoot Retouch Design

All I can say is AMAZING!! Kirsty photographed my wedding May 26th, 2012, at Madrona Manor. She was so easy to work with, and helped to make my wedding day perfect. I have only seen the sneak peek, (which was to die for!!) so this review is mainly on how easy she made something I generally don't do with ease,(photograph well) something that felt natural, and comfortable! I genuinely can not wait to get the rest of my pictures, and know with out a doubt they all will be perfect. I have always dreamed of a picture perfect wedding, (Pun intended) and Kirsty at Shoot Retouch Design made that a reality for me! Thank you SO much Kirsty :)

Kirsty was amazing to work with. We were fortunate enough to meet her while she was shooting one of our friend's wedding, so we had insight into how she works. Her sense of humor puts people at ease and pulls frame-worthy photos even from the most shy subjects.

Her photos are absolutely stunning! Great value-we will always cherish her amazing shots.

Kirsty is the most wonderful person and amazing photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better to shoot our wedding. The pictures turned out so well and everyone have complimented our photos for being some of the best wedding photos they have ever seen.
She comes with our very highest recommendations.

Let me just say this, Kirsty is the best photographer I have ever seen and the experience with her is so pleasant I feel that we are well taken care of. We actually found Kirsty through referrals from the hotel we booked for the banquet. Not only her work is amazing, she is very professional and easy going at the same time. She is passionate, talented, and has great style. She is also very responsive and flexible (expedite the slideshow for us without additional charge even though she is in middle of moving :P). Everyone who has seen her work is impressed and amazed by the quality of her work. We are very fortunately to have an opportunity to work with her and we are very thankful. I have been spreading the word to everyone I know about Kirsty, just because I want everyone to have the same wonderful experience with Kirsty and let every moment of their special day be captured by Kirsty.

Kirsty was not only an uber talented photographer, but also a super fun person! Our photos turned out beautifully and we were very happy with our gorgeous photo album. I even recommended her to my bridesmaid who recently used her for her wedding in Mexico. It's a no brainier to choose Kirsty as your photographer. She's the best!

Kirsty is the best! She took care of capturing precious moments of our civil wedding at the city hall and the reception at Carmel. She is creative, professional, punctuate, funny and charming. We enjoyed her presence at our wedding, her ability to interact naturally with our guests and to take non-posey yet animated photos of them. We admired her work and was glad we chose her as our photographer after we screened dozens of candidates. She was definitely the best!

Could NOT possibly be more pleased with the service, communication, and most importantly the photographs! Kirsty is a true professional and knows how to get the most out of any bride. I LOVE my photos and she captured some amazing moments. She also has a great personality and is funny - so it made us all feel at ease. Photos were delivered very punctually! I live in NYC and everyone is asking who my photographer was - they're all disappointed to hear she's not on the East coast. Hiring Shoot, Retouch, Design was one of the best decisions we made regarding our wedding! We "heart" Kirsty!

Kirsty was a pleasure to work with. Professional courteous and patient. We even spontaneously went to an off site location for more wedding photos. I would recommend her.

Kirsty shot our wedding and did a fabulous job! The pictures totally captured the energy and feeling of the day and she was really easy to work with. She also did an engagement shoot that was great practice (and great photos) before the big day.

Kirsty helped us through our wedding from the engagement photos (one of which served as our "save the date") to setting up our wedding day schedule, to capturing the day perfectly. She is full of enthusiasm and great ideas for creative photos and she also does an excellent job getting all of the traditional posed family photos. Kirsty is incredibly professional and experienced. Kirsty is also very responsive. She met with us multiple times, set up a couple conference calls and was always available over email for questions. I'm so pleased with our wedding photos and will recommend Kirsty to all my friends.

Kirsty's photos were absolutely beautiful -- they are artistic and unique, and she managed to capture all the little moments of our day. She can also do all of the standard formal shots, but her photography talent really shines with the creative shots. Marlin was a fantastic 2nd shooter, also! Now that I have all our images, the difficult decision is what to print and put into the album! Kirsty was one of the first vendors we chose, and we never looked back. You won't regret your decision to go with Kirsty.

Kirsty did a fantastic job for my wedding - the pictures were wonderful. She loves her job and it really shows - thank you Kirsty.

Kirsty was wonderful and lived up to what I was looking for in a wedding photographer. Her pictures are absolutely beautiful.

Hiring a fantastic wedding photographer was one one of the most important vendor decisions that we made for our wedding. We wanted someone that would would capture the spirit of the day, make us feel comfortable, and fit the overall look we were going for (photojournalistic, high fashion, etc.). Kirsty well exceeded our expectations.

From the moment we met Kirsty, our personalities clicked. She knows exactly when to step in and run things without being "in your face", as well as when to hang back and be non-intrusive for private moments. . .some of which became our favorite pictures.

We liked Kirsty so much that we flew her out to Phoenix from San Francisco for our wedding. She has a unique skill set, unlike any other photographers we researched. Her strong background in graphic design and animation can be seen in the final products of her proofs and the design of our wedding album. She is truly talented at all of the things she advertises. . .shooting. . .retouching. . .and designing.

Several months ago, she also took our infant niece's first baby pictures. Kirsty is becoming a family tradition. We hope to have her take similar pictures someday (a few years away). Take it from us, hire Kirsty, and relax. Your wedding pictures will be breathtaking.

Shoot Retouch Design was great and I would absolutely recommend them. Our wedding pictures turned out beautifully!

Kirsty and Jake did a most excellent job on capturing our wedding day. They went the extra yard to get the shots (a frequent comment from our wedding guests), made the effort to get to know us prior to the wedding to get us comfortable and capture things that were important to us, and offered advice and references for other details of the wedding. We've also gotten several comments that some of our pictures look like postcards. I had at first balked at the cost (this was my reaction to all the wedding costs though), but seeing the final results have made me feel it was totally worth it. I'd highly recommend an engagement session as I think that made us more comfortable on our actual wedding day.

wonderful pictures, very fast & professional & fun

I am so happy that I had Kirsty as my Wedding Photographer. I have timeless pictures now.They are BEAUTIFUL. She has a great eye to capture that little priceless moment. Her skills are so unique, her choice of colors, shadows and lighting are amazing. I truly feel like my pictures belong to a magazine. I am so happy with her work that I wouldnt recommend anybody else but her. It you want to trust someone for the most important day of your life and make sure that he\she captures all those little moments that you want to keep with you for ever GO WITH kirsty.

We absolutely LOVED Jake and Kirsty. They were so much fun to work with. We loved their creative ideas, and our wedding photos were AMAZING! Our wedding day was really long. It was a bi-cultural wedding, with at least 300 guests. It was also out-of-town and Jake and Kirsty made the effort to scout out some photo locations for us. They hung-in for everything and went out of their way to get some incredible shots to capture our day. We also had a great engagement shoot with them and it really helped put us at ease with the camera. I highly recommend them for ANY event!

My husband and I had an nontraditional wedding and were looking for someone who could adapt to our expectations. I am so thankful that I found Kirsty. Her style was a wonderful fit.
I felt comfortable from the beginning as she took the time to get a feel for us as a couple. She offered wonderful perspective as we planned our shoot, but always respected our opinions.
We chose two sights for our shoot. She was inspired by the spontaneity of each location and directed us with her characteristic charm. Our shoot was so much fun!
Our photos are gorgeous and stylish and we have received countless compliments. She has a true talent.

Great Photographer in San Francisco!
