Reviews for T. Kratzer Photography,LLC
GUEST




After interviewing several photographers, we chose T. Kratzer Photography because the quality/type of her photos were exactly what we were looking for. Tracy is extremely knowlegeable about wedding photography and had many good ideas to share with us. She is very good about personalizing the photos to match the type of wedding you are planning, and even includes an engagement photo session as part of her wedding package. On our wedding day, Tracy and her assistant Jenna were so helpful and organized and kept our day stress free.
We hired a photographer that we knew nothing about prior, and came away from our wedding day with a wonderful friend that we will continue to keep in touch with whenever photography needs arise in the future.

She made us feel special all day long. She was very creative, took some amazing shots, and was open to suggestions from the bride, groom, and family. She worked very well with little ones and all the way up to nervous dads!
She is very responsive to emails and phone calls, and works with you right up to the day of your wedding to make sure everything is going to run smoothly!
GUEST




Tracy and Gina were very professional, courteous, and funny throughout our entire wedding day. They made sure we got all the pictures that we wanted plus asked if we wanted more. They both are really good with the children as well, they made them feel very special in their dress-up clothes so they took extra pictures of them and made it fun for them.
GUEST




Tracy and her assistant were wonderful to have all day taking portrait and candid shots of our wedding. They were both very easy to work with and knew what would make the best shots with the surroundings that we were in. We even made a stop at our favorite restaurant (Trailhead) and she even captured wonderful action shots of everyone hanging out and having a beer. I didn't even know she was shooting them! She and her assistant took a wide range of photos (600+) and it was a hard time picking out which ones to put into the album because they were all so wonderful!
GUEST




The moment I met Tracy I knew she was going to be the best photographer for our wedding. She was always available throughout our whole wedding planning and even contacted me to see if she could be of any help. She had wonderful ideas on places to take pictures and great ideas on shots. We are so happy with our pictures. She helped made our day memorable.
GUEST




Tracy was absolutely fantastic. She came to my parents' house before the wedding and took tons of getting ready pics and a few on our front porch. She and her assistant took pictures throughout the entire ceremony and we didn't even realize they were taking pictures the whole time - which is great!! They took pictures of us and our wedding party in Forest Park and at Union Station. They had lots of good suggestions for locations and poses. Besides the obvious shots at the reception like cutting the cake, first dance, etc. we did not even know they were there and neither did most of our guests but they took some awesome shots. We love all of our pictures and couldn't even begin to pick a favorite. They do fantastic work and we couldn't have asked for better pictures. I would recommend them with zero hesitation.
GUEST




Tracy was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. Our photos turned out amazing and we were able to review them online within a few days. Thanks Tracy, I do not think we could ask for more!

Tracy was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with!! She makes you feel completely comfortable and like she's been a friend for years. My pictures were BEAUTIFUL and PERFECT!! Tracy does a great job of getting candids as well as the classic photographs. I couldn't have asked for anything more!! My family and guests also loved the pictures and couldn't say enough about what a wonderful job she did.
GUEST




My husband and I can not even begin to say how amazing T. Kratzer Photography was to work with. Tracy made our day so special. One thing that I appreciated most about Tracy, besides her outstanding work, was how the week before our wedding she called to ask me how everything was going and she told me that if I needed anything to give her a call. That meant so much to me to know that she was more than just our wedding photographer... she was our friend.
Our pictures turned out great. We could not ask for anything better. We appreciate your hard work, passion for your job, and thoughtfullness. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and family.
Thank you so much!

Tracy was amazing! From the moment we met her we knew we wanted her to be our photographer...her work speaks for itself! She was extremely professional, always on time, and willing to help in any way possible (pinning boutonnieres, etc.). She helped to make our wedding day memorable and was an absolute joy to work with! We would recommend her to anyone at anytime. Tracy- we will continue to think of you and thank you each time we look at our beautiful wedding pictures...you have given us memories that will last a lifetime.

Tracy was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was always professional and available whenever I wished to meet with her. I couldn't be happier with my pictures. Her quality of work is outstanding. She also has a lot of good ideas in general about weddings. She was always there to help me with my wedding planning and with my invitations (I ordered these through her at a great discount).
GUEST




Tracy was recommended by a friend who had used her for her wedding. We are so happy with the photos and everything that is included in the package. The only problem now is I have too many photos that I like and I can't choose which ones I want for the album!
GUEST




T. Kratzer Photography did a beautiful job on our wedding at the Coronado Ballroom it's a very dim lit place and pictures were simply beautiful. We highly recommend T Kratzer Photography for any event .Our engagement photos were perfect too. Thankyou so much we will have photos to cherish for years to come .
Thankyou,

I had wished for more close-up photos. But I liked how Tracy was in control of what was happening and on top of everything.

It was so easy to have fun with you guys! We had a blast. What a perfect day!
GUEST




Tracy did a wonderful job with our wedding photography! She was comfortable to work with and talk to about what and where you wanted the pictures taken and gave great creative ideas with photography. I would recommend Tracy- to anyone! I feel I got a lot in my package for the money.
GUEST




Tracy was incredible! She was always very responsive to our needs and desires and very flexible to be available when we needed her. She and her photographers were ever-present the entire day of the wedding without being intrusive. They completely captured the day, both formally and informally, preserving many moments that we hadn't even noticed until we received our proofs. The photos are amazing!
Thanks for sharing our day with us Tracy!
GUEST




We were extremely pleased with what we received for the cost. We could not have been happier. All the shots of our wedding came out beautifully. All of our friends and family were very impressed with our wedding album. It's gorgeous! We recommend this photographer to everyone we know!

Everything on this day was great ! The families, wedding party, and especially the couple.
GUEST




There was no doubt I had chosen the right photographer for my wedding day when I chose T. Kratzer Photography. I had been to other weddings that she had covered and was very pleased with the outcomes. When I met with Tracy, I was able to see all the possibilities and creativity she had expressed in other venues. I was excited to hear she was available on the date we had chosen. The only problem was that I LOVED too many of the photos and had a difficult time choosing the photos for my final album. Everyone that has viewed my wedding album is amazed at how unique and beautiful it is. I truly loved my experience that I had with T. Kratzer Photography and highly recommend her services!
GUEST




Tracy was recommended to my husband and I from a friend that used her services previously. We were very excited when we met Tracy! She was fun, very professional, and no nonsense. Tracy took what we wanted and delivered beautiful and fun pictures!
On our Wedding day I didn't have to worry about any details that had to do with photography because Tracy and her assistant Karen had everything under control! They kept us moving smoothly along throughout the day and into the night!!
I recommend T. Kratzer Photography for your special day!!
GUEST

It was a pleasure working with Tracy. She was very professional and had wonderful ideas! She made us feel very comfortable and she kept things moving very smoothly. I talked with her the week of the wedding. She sensed how stressed out I was and she offered to help me run errands! She was great! Our pictures are beautiful and the package we chose was just right for us. I would absolutely recommend Tracy to anyone.

While planning my second daughter's wedding, I found myself once again searching for the "perfect" photographer. This being one of the most important decisions of the day, my daughter and I could not be happier with choosing Tracy to capture every moment of their day. Her professionalism was outstanding, but she also adds a personal touch as if we had been friends forever. Never once did she become frustrated with my endless phone calls and emails!! She was always there with the answer or advice. Tracy has wonderful ideas and was more than willing to use some of ours too. Tracy was with us all day, and definitely went the extra mile, which you do not find ofen. We are absolutely thrilled with the photographs. Rachel and Brent had their proofs within one week, and with all the photographs being online all of our guest were able to enjoy them too. I would highly recommend T. Kratzer Photography. Thanks for everything Tracy!

Brent and Rachel were so much fun. We always try to decide at the end of the year, who we had the bet time with. I think Brent and Rachel win this one !
GUEST




Tracy was wonderful. She was very professional and answered all my questions promptly. She took beautiful pictures and always arrived early, whether it be the engagement session or the wedding. Our engagement picture turned out so beautiful that it made the front page color print photo in our local journal. Tracy was willing to help out in any way she could for the day of the wedding. She had excellent equipment for outdoor lighting when taking our pictures. The poses she had us do turned out so well, and on our wedding day, another wedding party followed us around Tower Grove mimicking her ideas. It was funny. Tracy really knew how to work with the crowd and helped make my wedding one of the happiest experiences of my life. I have my albums and portraits back and they are so lovely. I have recieved such wonderful compliments on the photos and how great Tracy was. I would highly recommend booking Tracy for your wedding date. If you have any doubts about her work, one visit to her studio will change your mind. Her photographs are amazing. When my husband and I decide to have children, I will go back to Tracy in a heartbeat for family photos.

To all couples looking for the perfect photographer, ( tkratzer) is phenominal! Tracy is a wonderful photographer, she is very professional, funny:), sweet and caring. I told her what we were looking for and she delivered! at the last minute my wedding venue was double booked and she really helped me out to find vendors. the photos are so beautiful i just love them! she gives an engagement photo op, and she really has an eye for good photos. Tkratzer is also very quick and effieciant with the turn around time after the event. our pics were posted 3-5 days after our wedding. i loved her work so much that my lil girl turned 1 recently and i had her come and take pictures for my daughters first bday party. i felt like we have gotten so much for the prices that she charges. so if ur looking for a photographer for any event call tkratzer!

You guys were great. It means so much when I get to be part of the kids lives too. I could have held MacKenzie all night. Don't forget me for the 2nd birthday party !
GUEST




Tracy was fantastic! She was helpful not only with pictures but with everything at my wedding and after. Not only did she take pictures, but helped with dresses and offered to get anything we needed. During the wedding you never knew she was there, except the pictures proved she didnt miss a thing!Truely a class act. I loved all of my pictures and the album she put together is perfect without being super pricey. I would recommend T. Kratzer Photography to all of my friends. Thanks Tracy for the wonderful work. Kate.
GUEST




Tracy has been in the business for many years...and it shows! She captured all of the moments from our special day without disrupting the flow of our schedule. I appreciate her professionalism while keeping it light and fun. We had so many shots to choose from, and had our album back right away. She was the right choice to trust with the memories of the most important day of our lives!
GUEST




When we first met Tracy, my husband and I were so very impressed with the photos in her studio that we immediately knew that we had found our photographer. Having both been involved with weddings before, we have heard, and see first hand, the disasters that can, and usually do, occur when it comes to photographing the entire ceremony, and all those involved. After seeing our engagement photos Tracy took, we were ecstatic to see just how great our wedding photos would turn out. Come wedding day, when most photographers are running around with very little direction, and usually unable to control the environment, Tracy was like the cool police officer directing traffic in every which way, like there was nothing to it. My husband and I were so enamored by her calm and collective technique throughout the entire day, and even more so was our wedding party, who continually commented on just how nice, how professional, and how unique Tracy and her poses were! Tracys professionalism and service did not end there, when we received our wedding album just a few short months later, it was again very apparent we had made the right decision, especially since we are often asked Wow! Who was your photographer? These photos are beautiful! We could not have asked for more in a photographer. With Tracy, we not only found a professional photographer, we found a friend. My husband and I have already decided Tracy will take all of our childrens photos, as well as our family portraits! Great service, great price, and most importantly, a great person!

Tracy made our day truly special! She has great, creative ideas and is the best at her craft! We were lucky to be one of the first to choose the coffee table album with collage type pages...we get so many compliments on it! Check out her website to view the albums! I know that we will use her services in the future for family pictures! Amanda & Jason

Tracy was hired for our son and daughter-in-laws wedding, from the state of California, several years ago. Being as they live out of- state with the wedding taking place in Missouri, I was personally involved in their selection process and interviewed several photographers. Kratzer Photography pricing and quality impressed me the most and a decision we did not regret!! Tracy went above and beyond the call of duty to see that our families needs were met. I highly recommend Tracy not only as a professional photographer but she is a very wonderful /genuine person to work with. She is very accommodating and her creativity and quality of work is fabulous. Just recently visited her after our second sons marriage and as quickly as technology changes I was amazed at the beautiful digital layouts she creates for some of her albums. Take a look at her work. Your wedding day is too important to settle for nothing but the best!
GUEST




Horrible, horrible, horrible. She set her camera up on a tripod & stood with her hands on her hips waiting for US to come to HER. She missed TONS of great shots. Outdoor wedding, view from one side was a beautiful park, view from the other side was the park shelters & outbuildings. Guess which side she set up on? Yep, we have outbuildings in the background of all of our wedding pics. She didn't take any good candids on her own, our friends had to tell her to take pictures at certain times, and even then there was a giant telephone pole in the middle of the pic because she refused to move to get the good shot. At one point she said, "You have two shots left, what do you want them to be?" I couldn't believe it, I thought about sending someone to walmart to buy her more film, but I figured we didn't really want her pics anyway. I didn't even order my 8x10 because there wasn't one that I wanted. Worst part of my wedding & I still get angry about it when I think of my wedding day. Good thing we had a friend there with a camera. or we would have no good shots of our wedding day at all.
GUEST




Our photographer did an exceptional job. She was on time, had many wonderful ideas, has a great sense of humor, but is very professional at the same time. There was not a photo that was misssed or anything I would have wanted different. In my opinion the prices are very reasonable.

FAQ for T. Kratzer Photography,LLC
When choosing a photographer, one should make sure there are entire weddings to view start to finish. Whether it be online, or in an album. Always remember, people always put their best work out to be viewed, so make sure there is alot to look at. In albums, portraits, etc.A good question to ask is " How long have you been in business?" That in itself will tell you something about the reliability factor. There are alot of photographers who are fresh out of school, or are just starting out ( everyone has to start somewhere) that have only done 1 or two weddings ever.
Also, make sure you are going to like the one you are going to be working with all day. After all, you are paying them to choreograph your photography for the day, so when you are meeting with your photographer, you should know right away if you are going to work well together. And, as with any vendor you book, remember, dates do not last long, so if you get that feel good feeling, you should grab your vendor and book so they don’t get snatched up by another person. Whether it be your florist, DJ, videographer, photographer, or wedding coordinator. Most can only do 1 event per day, so keep that in mind. You can also ask said vendors for referrals for other vendors. They will know the good ones since they work with them all the time.
