Kind Words

This was a once in a lifetime experience.

This was a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you for taking the reins and giving such comforting guidance. Regular people don’t hire a photographer on a regular basis. It’s super special. Super special can be intimidating. You wiped all of that away, and folded Dylan into the “modeling” scene like a pro. It’s a very grounded, and generous quality, to know how to make someone feel like they belong. 

 Thank you so much for such an effortless and fun day!

NO WORDS!!!!!!!!!! All I can say is thank you so much for such an effortless and fun day, I cannot wait to post and print these everywhere because they are all so perfect! YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!

She has this happy, positive energy to her that just makes you feel so comfortable.

Kara is such a talented, amazing photographer. I've never modeled before so I kind of felt uncomfortable in front of the camera. She has this happy, positive energy to her that just makes you feel so comfortable. I was grateful for that and the various directions she gave when it came to posing. She truly made me feel like a model. To make it even better, she made look like one with her beautiful photos! The various angles and the way she edits them is just WOW!! You will not be disappointed at all!
