Vowing to love and cherish forever is an exceptional thing. Let’s capture it in an exceptional way.

From the moment the first “I love you” was whispered, you’ve been dreaming of this day, the day when you’ll stand before your family, your friends, God and your future spouse to make promises you’ll keep the rest of your life.

I can’t wait to deliver the experience of your dreams. Let’s begin your adventurE...

With a passionate, trustworthy professional behind the camera, we’ll preserve each and every cherished moment with the genuine care they deserve.

Every detail—from the borrowed hundred-year-old pearls to the hint of tears in the groom’s eye as the bride floats down the aisle to the precious moments at the altar—will be preserved for you to cherish in all the years to come.

We had Kara take photos on our wedding day during the “getting ready” part of the day. The photos came out beautiful and she was such a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend having her take your photos if you ever need it. She is super sweet and professional. Her style is airy and bright and it was absolutely perfect!

Kara was a pleasure to work with. She helped make my daughter’s wedding day extra special. Kara made my daughter feel at ease and comfortable. The photographs were beautiful and captured the magic of the day!!

Working with Kara on family photos was wonderful. It was our second year and we could not be happier. She is so good at arranging poses and helping keep the kids happy. We will definitely be calling her again soon. Her photos are such a beautiful investment in our memories!

I highly recommend working with Kara Loryn Photography. She made our family portrait session fun and enjoyable, and she did a great job of getting our kids to cooperate for photos. Our pictures turned out beautifully! We also used her when my sister-in-law's wedding photographer dropped out three days before her wedding. Kara stepped in gracefully, was so professional and thorough, and overall was such a joy to work with. You will not be disappointed if you work with Kara.

FAQs

My collections include 8 hours of shooting. Additional hours can be added to any collection at $450/hour.

Yes! Each of my collections includes a second photographer and let me tell you, they’re all fantastic! I’m careful to prep my second photographers so they know your story and what you’re looking for and can authentically capture your day.

Yes I do!

No! I work hard to ensure your gallery includes warm, natural photos. The raw files of your images aren’t complete before the editing process and I’d never want you to get a partially finished product! 

This really depends on your day. The average can lie anywhere between 600-800 images and will change if you add more hours of shooting.

After you submit your initial inquiry and I have sent your booking proposal, you'll have 7 days to sign your contract and pay your 50% retainer before your date may be released for another couple. To be fully present to my family throughout the year, I cap my wedding schedule at 12-15 weddings and those spots will fill FAST! If you’re still undecided after reading over your proposal and talking about it, please reach back out to me! I’d love for you to be one of the couples I get to serve this year.

While my primary service is Catholic Christian weddings, I do offer lifestyle and portrait sessions. Fill out my inquiry form and let’s chat about what you’re looking for!
