All Around Perfect Wedding Photographer!

I learned of Kara through a family member (I was a bridesmaid in the wedding) who had also used her as a wedding photographer. I just remember her being so sweet and helpful the day of, and when I saw my cousin’s pictures they were BEAUTIFUL! I was elated to find out that Kara was available for our big day when the time to discuss wedding vendors when our wedding came around!

Throughout the whole process Kara was beyond kind and helpful. She was extremely thorough, timely, and professional in the planning stages leading up to our wedding in order to ensure that Michael and I got everything we wanted out of our wedding photos and the process on the day of the wedding went off without a hitch.

We requested all of our photos via a digital album once they were done and it was so nice to have them all on hand to show relatives and friends, and look through and relive the magical night asap! Kara did a wonderful job capturing every aspect of our wedding from getting ready, to our first look, ceremony, reception, etc. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our special day!

Engagement Session and Future Wedding

Do you ever meet someone and go "Yep, this person is going to be my friend." That is exactly how I felt when I contacted Kara about doing engagement photos for me and my now husband Micky. I met Kara online in the coaster community and it was a match made in amusement park heaven. When we had our initial call, I knew I was in good hands! We chatted for way longer than we planned to and I couldn't wait to have her be part of such an important moment of my life. Both engagement and wedding sessions were INCREDIBLE! Kara is organized, resourceful, understanding, and every other positive adjective you could think of. When I told her how Micky and I met at the library and that is the theme for our wedding she made sure every literary aspect was shown. I told her all the important thing to photograph (ceremony blessings, Jewish customs, cookie table, families dancing, decor etc..) and she did! I could not recommend her enough. You are missing out in life if you haven't had a chance to interact with such an incredible person! I could write a whole book about how amazing she is, but I will stop here since I wrote basically a chapter. If you are looking for someone to be your friend during one of the most exciting yet stressful moments of your life then contact Kara!

Best Day of My Life Captured in Photos

My husband and I hired Kara Abbey Photography to shoot our engagement photo session (Fall 2022) and wedding this past May of 2023. Kara was able to capture the best day of my life perfectly. She got all of the formal photos that we wanted despite the rain... even came with her own white umbrellas. She captured all the big moments of the night... all the special dances, the "cake" cutting and the ceremony. I was most impressed, though, that she caught so many candid seemingly unimportant moments. There are photos of my family members just having a nice time with one another. There are mid-dance photos that truly show how much fun we all had. Lastly, the private sunset session she stole us away for are some of the greatest photos. I cannot recommend Kara (and Darcy who came on as our second photographer) enough for their patience with our families and attention to detail.
