Carly Kratzer Photography

It has taken me a few weeks post wedding to sit down and write this review because it is difficult to explain just how incredible Carly is. We had the pleasure of having her do both our engagement and wedding photos, with hopefully more milestones to come in the future. Several of our guests asked for her contact info, followed her on social media, or just gushed about how amazing she was all day! Everyone we have shown our sneak peeks to says they are magazine level work - and they are right. We are floored by how beautiful our images are. Besides just how FREAKING STUNNING her work is, she makes you feel like a million dollars. We were instantly comfortable and relaxed after meeting her. Her passion for her work and her clients is obvious - from capturing those special moments so expertly to thoughtful messages, cards, and gifts. I never thought I would feel so strongly about a wedding vendor but we would choose Carly every single time and feel so lucky to have found her. She is sunshine in person form and brings joy, light, and humour to everything she does.

Carly was absolutely lovely to work with. She is so down to earth, easy going, humble and kind - from the moment she answered my family's inquiry, straight through to our session date and delivery of the photos. During our session, she engaged in conversation, made the whole experience fun, comfortable and enjoyable - and it really shows in the images she took. They capture our family so authentically and we are so in love with every. single. one. Very excited for our next session, which we are already so eager to book.We highly recommend Carly Kratzer Photography for documenting your family moments and memories!

Carly was such a joy to work with and we couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out! We did a family session with our two young children and they both absolutely adored her right off the bat. She made it such a fun and relaxed experience for them (she even had a playlist ready with some of their favourite songs) and it translated to really natural photos that truly captured their personalities. We’ve never had a photography experience go more smoothly with our two kids.

Carly is an absolute gem. We hired her to take photos of us cutting down our tree at a local Christmas Tree Farm and we are so stoked with our photos! Carly's easygoing personality made us feel super comfortable. Can't wait to book with her again!

Carly (&Nick!) were SO wonderful to work with. From making us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot, to feeling like family on the day of the wedding. Carly takes so much pride in her work and her clients and thinks about every little detail - she even sent us a card when we first signed on with her! We had limited time and not the best weather conditions on the day of the wedding and Carly & Nick were wonderful in helping to keep us warm (or at least looking warm) and got all of the shots we wanted super quickly! I love Carly's photography style and I'm so glad I'll have these pictures to cherish forever. I would definitely recommend Carly for your photography needs!

Where to Begin…My wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Carly over the last couple of years through an engagement session and two weddings. The thing we loved about Carly’s wedding package was that it included the engagement session, which allowed us to get to know each other before our wedding. We first met Carly for that engagement session in the beautiful town of Elora. Carly was very personable, caring, and thoughtful. She took the time and effort to make a connection with us, all while directing us with ease through one of our first professional photo shoots together. We were ecstatic when we received the photos and genuinely could not have been happier with the way they turned out.We had then booked Carly for our wedding, for the summer of 2021, at a venue in Cambridge. Unfortunately, due to Covid restrictions, we decided to postpone those original plans and have an intimate ceremony with immediate family at a church instead. Because we had such an amazing experience with Carly during our engagement session, and knew we wanted her to capture our wedding day regardless of the last-minute change in plans. Without hesitation, Carly agreed to drive hours north to do this.Despite working in a totally foreign space, her ability to have a vision, capture the moment, and create the final product is a true testament to her craft and abilities.Fast forward to the summer of 2022, we were able to have our wedding 2.0 at the original venue with all of our friends and family. Carly had a big part in helping the day run smoothly and seamlessly by helping plan a realistic timeline, and always responding to our many questions and concerns. Her expertise was again revealed during our wedding with over 100 guests. The final photos are absolutely amazing. There are not enough words to truly describe the thoughtfulness and pure talent Carly possesses. The overall experience of working with her was matchless and the quality of the photos we received is incredible. We already look forward to working with Carly again for all our future photography needs.

Carly was incredible to work with and my branding photoshoot was beautiful. She went above and beyond to help me feel comfortable and enjoy the process. Couldn't recommend Carly enough!

Carly’s infectious personality makes it so easy to get in front of the camera. Her ability to effortlessly work with large groups is seriously impressive and I don’t hesitate to brag about her work! Some of my most cherished photos were captured by Carly and I am so very grateful for her!

Carly is incredible, no other way to describe her! Carly took photos of our family around Christmas for our annual Christmas cards we do and they turned out absolutely stunning! Not only is Carly an amazing photographer, she is an amazing woman and was fantastic with our 3 year old during our session. Looking forward to working with her again in the future.
