Kat Wickstrom Photography -

Kat was awesome to work with!

She is very personable and it was easy to feel comfortable with her as soon as we started our engagement session, especially for 2 awkward people. She was down to play in the snow with us and made us feel like we were rockstars, even though she was doing all the work!

She was the first vendor we hired for our wedding, and an easy choice for sure. She stayed in communication leading up to the wedding and walked through her plan with us for our big day.

On our wedding, she was a ninja in disguise. Her and her husband seemed to be everywhere and nowhere. When it was time for group photos/couple photos, she efficiently pulled us aside and took a great set of photos.

We LOVE all of our photos that Kat took and have got so many compliments from everyone!!

As much as I wish I could relive our wedding, the closest I can get is from looking at our wedding photos. Kat did a great job at our wedding and we would hire her again in a heartbeat. Hands down, Kat was the best choice of a photography vendor we could've asked for!

Kat was the best vendor we booked! She was extremely professional from start to finish. Our first experience with Kat was for our engagement shoot in Crested Butte, Colorado. My husband and I had a great time with her and the pictures turned out better than the Pinterest board she had me create for inspiration. We knew we really wanted her to shoot our wedding in Chicago, IL. On my wedding day, Kat went above and beyond to make my bridal party and I feel comfortable. She flawlessly executed the timeline and even when we were stuck in traffic- she made light of the situation and snapped fun pics in the party van! The day after our wedding, we received a “congratulations” text AND a sneak peek of our photos! If you have any hesitations about booking Kat, meet her in person. Her warm personality paired with her artistic vision for your day will exceed any expectation you have. We can’t wait to hang her art on our walls for the rest of time!

Kat is amazing!!! I had originally booked a cheaper photographer but was given the advice that wedding photos are often what people regret not doing better years down the road- its memories! Kat did such an amazing job capturing our day- I know we will cherish them so much more in the years to come. She's also just a super cool gal- way recommend.

Kat Wickstrom Photography was INCREDIBLE to work with and my husband and I count ourselves blessed to have had our wedding day photographed with beautiful talent, fun and so much laughing. Wedding photos were very important to me, but our budget could only be stretched so far. Kat worked with me on figuring out a schedule where we could get the shots that I really desired. Communication was detailed, prompt and very helpful. On our big day, they arrived and immediately got to work and I knew and trusted right away that they would beautifully capture our special day (what a gift to a bride) - and they did. The photos turned out to be better than what we had hoped for and more! The time that was put into the capturing, editing and the delivering of the photos are so very worth it. My husband and I treasure our wedding photos and I will always be thankful for the wonderful work of Kat Wickstrom Photography.

Kat has a wonderful ability to capture special moments in a beautiful way. My husband and I got married 7 years ago (Kat was in our wedding, not our photographer 😉) and our photos were so disappointing. 3 years later, she pulled out all the stops to give us the wedding photos we’d always wanted. I wore my dress, Jake wore his suit, and we all galavanted around Los Angeles taking iconic shots in front of the skyline and The Broad. Her photos we PERFECT! She made us feel so comfortable and posed us in ways that looked natural (especially considering it was a random Thursday and not even our wedding day!) I am overwhelmed by the gift she was able to give us through these photos and love seeing all the happy couples she photographs for engagements, elopements and weddings. Book her! I promise you’ll love your photos, too!

Kat is such a great photographer!

I’ve used Kat for lifestyle photography for my blog, family photography, and professional headshots.

On all of them, she has been creative with scenes and lighting, enthusiastic, and overall so fun to work with.

She also gets back to me with fully edited shots very quickly and gives me edited versions of all the shots she takes (no limit of shots included and extra add-on fees for additional pics).

I highly recommend Kat. She’s the best!

I contacted Kat for professional headshots and family pictures with my 2 sisters. She was easy to get in touch with and great about communicating with me regarding where to take pictures and when. The pictures turned out amazing! Turnaround time was great and I had the photos within a few days. I will be giving them to my mother as a birthday present next month and I know she will love them. Kat did a wonderful job keeping things comfortable and offered feedback about "poses," which was extremely helpful since I generally had no idea what I was doing. haha would definitely recommend!

We fell in love with Kat's dreamy style and eye for capturing mountain landscapes when we saw photos from a co-worker's wedding . She was their photographer, and we knew she had to be ours. Then, we fell in love with Kat-the-human during our engagement shoot. She and her husband ended up staying laaaate into the evening at our house for hours of talking and laughing and impromptu cat photos. By the end, she felt like a dear friend. Your wedding photos will benefit from her natural ability to forge instant connections with the couples she works with and put families at ease as well. On my wedding day...let's just say I surprised myself by becoming a rather nervous bride who decided to kick everyone out of my getting-ready area/house except my mom, sister, and Kat - who helped reassure me (and still quietly managed to grab a few good "getting ready photos" despite my complete disinterest at the time!) After the wedding, she understood and managed the dynamics of older family members during what seemed like endless requests for another group shot (because such-and-such cousin missed the first one) and she balanced out those traditional shots in our album with gentle requests to steal us away briefly for romantic poses/candids when the light was just-so. As a result, our photo album captured our experience of that day perfectly - exactly how I remember the atmosphere FELT. If you're getting married outside in the mountains, trust me, she knows her way around the ever-shifting palette of sky and rock and sunbeams. 🙂
