Kara is a wonderful, talented photographer with so many clever ideas on how to get the best shot. She offers direction but is easygoing and will also allow from some self direction which makes the photo shoot that much more fun. 11/10, would absolutely recommend you book her for any photography needs!

Kara is such an amazing person to work with, everything was communicated so clearly, and the photo shoot was a blast. The viewing of photos is so thoughtful she even put out a charcuterie board as we viewed the pictures. We will definitely be going back to her for all future photo shoots.

Kara is absolutely phenomenal. My sons most recent newborn session isn’t the first time I’ve worked with her. She did my daughters newborn session in 2017, captured some beautiful pictures of her when she was 6 months old, and maternity photos. She is very professional, communicative, responsive, and incredibly talented. She has provided timeless photos for our family and incorporated some very special rainbow pictures for our double rainbow baby we had in February. I’ll forever be grateful for very special pictures she has created for our family. Kara’s photos are worth every penny. You

Kara is amazing. Her studio is comfortable and the design of her sets are timeless yet very on trend. She went above and beyond with me during the photo selection and editing process to help create family heirloom portraits. Best of all in 2020, she is very covid-cautious and responsible. I felt completely safe with my family in her hands. I highly recommend working with Kara if you are ready to invest in capturing memories that will last a lifetime.

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Kara capture our wedding day in September of 2018 and she was absolutely wonderful to work with! When I first made contact with Kara, she was flexible and willing to set up a FaceTime meeting because I didn't have the ability to meet in person. Our initial conversation was perfect; Kara was easy to talk to & made me feel comfortable right from the start. She took the time to ask important questions to get to know us and what we envisioned for our wedding day.
We were finally able to meet Kara in person a few months before our wedding. Again, Kara was

I have admired Kara’s photography work for many years. When we found out we were expecting and it was going to be our last baby, I knew she was the one that I wanted to capture this special time for us. I reached out to her on her Instagram account and she promptly emailed me the same day. After countless questions back and forth on my behalf, Kara always responded promptly, with care and respect. She welcomed me into her studio for our consultation appointment and made me feel at ease. Her personality is so inviting, which makes you feel very comfortable with her. The same holds true when she

Kara Reese Photography was fantastic. Kara was so personable and worked graciously with us to achieve exactly what we wanted in photos of our wedding ceremony and reception. She did an outstanding job with her photography. Kara was over the top in accommodating everything we wished for. Our wedding album is beautiful and perfect. Our individual pictures are fantastic. She even included picture discs and flash drive of ALL our wedding photos. Great job Kara and thank you ever so much. I highly recommend Kara Reese Photography if you're looking for a great photographer to do your wedding.

We had Kara shoot photos for our Sept. 2017 country wedding with our horses on our farm! Kara showed up EXACTLY as scheduled and immediately starting shooting! She was honestly all over the place and we hardly new she was there, but when we got our photos, we were so excited!! She captured every detail we could have thought of and worked her butt off! We are so very excited to now cover the walls and fireplace mantle of our new home with our wedding photos thanks to Kara!! She was so easy to work with, professional, with a great eye for detail!! Thank you so much for giving us such beautiful memories
