some feedback from some of my beautiful clients....
Rowena & Alex - Hanging Rock Hall "Hi Kate, The images arrived yesterday! So beautifully presented and packaged, even the unboxing process felt so special! We are so incredibly grateful, every single image is beautiful and captures each special moment so perfectly. We can’t thank you enough for documenting our day so well! Looking at all the photos makes us feel like we’re re-living the day over, they are magical, we couldn’t be happier with them and we can’t wait to share them with our friends and family! Kindly, Rowena and Alex" Carla & Jonni - Riverhawk Ranch "Dearest Kate, There were so many magical moments here that feels looks like how it felt. Thank you so much for being awesome and caring so much about what you do. Its got value beyond words for us to see these pics and relive it through your lens. Thank you! Love Jonni and Carla xx" Jacqui & Matt - Figtree Restaurant Byron Bay "OH MY!!!!! Words can not describe how beautiful this slideshow is! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Looking forward to seeing the full package of photos of the day. Matt and I can't thank you enough for being so amazing on our wedding day. You were a dream to be around, so easy, stress free and clearly captured everyone so beautifully and comfortably enjoying the day. It truly is a credit to you as an artist, photographer and as a person. Family and friends all had the same comments of being so relaxed around you and how professional you are. You are an absolute superstar. We are incredibly lucky to have connected with you and met you. Forever thankful, Matt & Jacqui" Nat & Steve - The Farm, Byron Bay "Hi Kate, A massive thank you for being so wonderful on our wedding day. Thank you for being a calming presence and for making two very camera shy people actually enjoy the picture process and our few little quiet moments away. I also wanted to give a huge thanks for taking the time to make your way through our guests, many of them have let us know that you were just amazing in capturing little moments between families and how comfortable they felt, Steve and I really appreciate that. We can’t wait to share the photos with everyone. Hope you have a great week and we will catch up soon, Nat & Steve xx" Lauren & Andy - Harvest Newrybar "Dearest Kate! Wow! We're absolutely speechless! We have just sat down to watch your beautiful slideshow of our special day. Your art has captured the day so perfectly and left us blown away. Loz and I feel honoured to have had you there and feel blessed to have these images for the rest of our lives. Your work is sublime. It's emotive. soulful and like no other. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts, we will look at these memories forever. Your friends always, Loz & Andy" Kate & Jason - Private Elopement "Dear Kate, I just wanted to let you know how much we love the photos you took of us on our little wedding day. We see other pictures of friends and family and - to be completely honest - they just dont compare to ours. So I wanted to say thank you so so much once again. For taking the photos, takin us to all those lovely locations, for booking an amazing lunch for us, for your company and for everything overall. You are truly one in a million!!!!! Lots of love, Kate & Jason" Heidi & Michael - Horizons "Dear Kate, We have spent the past two evenings laughing, giggling, tearing up, shaking our heads, silent, frantically texting, calling, being deeply happy - looking over your wonderful photos. Thank you so much. They captured everything wonderfully and made us both feel like we were both back in Talofa in May. The sequence down the aisle is not something you see on instagram - its clearly my dad and me trying to not sob! To quote Michael’s sister in DC who we’ve sent a bunch of photos to - ‘she’s a genius!’. Thank you very much. They mean an awful lot. You’re a ninja with a big heart x love, Heidi & Michael" Kate & Sarah - The Earth House " We didn’t even want a wedding photographer at first as Sarah is pretty uncomfortable with the idea of posed photos. Friends insisted that we would regret if we didn’t. I’d seen a few of Kate’s wedding photos on insta and explored her work more and was blown away by her talent and creativity. I hoped she could help us! From our first communication with her to the end of our wedding day, kate was perfect-she just seemed to get it. Barely noticeable, she dances around like a ninja ballerina, capturing such beautiful and natural moments of all of our guests and of us throughout the day. The slideshow we received so soon after the wedding blew us away-to have such considered documentation from getting ready, through to drinks, ceremony, reception and then the dancing is beyond what we could have hoped for. Even the compulsory family group photos are natural and easy. We received the full set of perfectly presented, curated and edited images soon after that. For the first time ever, the colour shots are even more beautiful than the monochrome. And we love monochrome. Kate captures people at their best. She documents emotions. And the atmosphere of a landscape in a way I can’t describe. Still life, portrait, action and landscape photos are all of equal and exquisite composition and beauty. Our friends were right about the photographer, and we were so lucky to find this one x" Sarah & Ed - The Farm + Three Blue Ducks "Dear Kate, Thank you thank you thank you. They arrived yesterday and we looked through them last night. We really love how you captured not just the people but the whole day/night as well. I'm a big bird fan and the three pelicans flying over head was a very nice touch as well. We can't wait to show our families over Christmas. Thank you so much Kate we loved working with you and are so thankful that you got to photograph it all for us" (Ed) "BLOODY AMAZING WORK!!!!!! Thanks a milllion again Kate, you were everything we wanted and more, I am so excited that you captured the day in the most perfect, unique and artistic way" (Sarah) Karina & Karl - The Farm + Three Blue Ducks "Kate! We are over the moon!!! They are everything we imagined in our minds and better- you captured us perfectly. I’ve looked through them so many times and have too many favourites! We can’t thank you enough, everything was perfection from meeting you through to the beautiful package with all our memories. You truly are a wonderful talent, and everyone commented on how easy you were to have photographing us on the day, we are so lucky to have had you there for our day! Thank you thank you xoxox Karina and Karl" Edwina & Ant - Stanley and Florence Twight Reserve, Sydney "Dearest Yummy Kate, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for shooting our wonderful day. We have been overwhelmed this last week reviewing the moments you so perfectly captured. You went about the day inconspicuously, and creeping quietly like a mouse getting the most perfect angles, faces and moments of love. We cannot thank you enough for this perfect package you offered us. We look forward to moving them into a more edible format, but are pretty sure we'll flick through every 1000 every few years or so to re-create the perfect day in our minds.We are so in love, we are so happy. A marriage should encompass that, and you have printed that out in film to remind us. Thank you, Love Eddie" "Holmsie of the north, WOW! Your work behind the lens is ALL TIME, love it. Digesting all 1000 is a pleasurable feast for the eyes, and almost impossible to break down to a 100 shot album! The use of angles and focal points gives a bit of a voyeur feel which works so well, a flavour of the day from so many perspectives! The results are striking, you truly outdid yourself! Love you and your work! Ant" Clare & Keenan - Osteria "Kate! These are AMAZING!! You are such a ninja! I think I saw you about three times on the day – I don’t know how you got all of these shots!!' Sarah & Sean - Secret Garden " Hi Kate, We received the photos safe and sound. They are absolutely friggin amazing. We cannot put into words how beautiful you made it all. Thank you so so much. You are truly amazing!!! So incredibly talented. Can't wait to show everyone. Thank you so much. Thank you thank you thank you. Sarah and Sean xxx" Mandy & Tyson - Newrybar Downs "Kate, Thank you so much for the most incredible photos we could have wished for - they are divine. They capture every special moment, and many are such candid, natural shots which was exactly what we wanted. Thank you - you’ve made our wedding something we will always remember, and be able to live back in that special moment. You’re wonderful! xxx Mandy and Tyson" Jess & Beau - Rae's On Watego's "Kate! I can't thank you enough ! The photos are phenomenal- couldn't get more prefect if you tried. I had to put an album up on Facebook and tag everyone because they are just so divine ! Everyone is going crazy over them. Thank you so much ! Jess & Beau" Emma & Michael - Gurragawee "Dear Kate! We've just opened our lovely parcel from you. Thank you so much for the beautiful prints and your letter. We were so happy and privileged to have had you as part of our day and we both felt super comfortable and confident in your amazing talent. Em & M x :-)" |
If you have found yourself wondering over the possibility of me capturing your wedding day then yay and thank you.
My style of wedding photography is very photojournalistic and unobtrusive, (i.e. nothing remotely cheesy about it). In saying that though, I am there to give you direction if needed, but mostly I will aim to capture the essence of the day in an honest and authentic way. I'm based in Bangalow, northern NSW, however I love to travel and will happily set off on an adventure for you. Send word if it feels right. I'd love to hear from you. kateholmesphotographer@gmail.com |
