Are you getting married? Are you two nerds in love? Are you near Denver? Because I know THE ABSOLUTE BEST photographer. Kate was incredible. She was organized, talented, and exceptionally kind. She takes photos of couples all the time, but I felt so cared for and seen by her, and her passion for what she does was evident in everything. You know you've really found your person when you would rather play with lightsabers in photos than hold up a "we eloped!" sign -- and you know you've found a truly special wedding photographer when you lament about not being able to bring your lightsaber all the way from New Jersey to use as a photo prop and her response is "oh but we can make that happen"! It was an unforgettable experience and if I had to do it all over again I would choose Kate every time.

The most amazing elopement photographer! If you’re looking to have a blast on the day-of, while also capturing genuine moments, book Kate Merrill! The photos exceeded our expectations- Kate is an artist! We had a small private ceremony, but after viewing the photo gallery our family remarked that they felt like they were there and got to see everything! That meant so much to us.

Kate was AWESOME!! I absolutely LOVED my photos from her. She was relaxed the day of the wedding and put us at ease in front of the camera. She was absolutely on top of everything and had excellent communication leading up to the event. I can't recommend her services enough! :)

Cannot convey how wonderful it was to work with Kate for our engagement and wedding! Kate is kind, funny, warm, transparent, creative, and (in the best way) ruthlessly professional. Absolutely recommend Kate; we can't wait for an occasion to work with her again soon!

Kate is the bomb!! Her pricing is transparent, and the photos she takes are stunning. Plus, she went out of her way to help me draft a schedule for my wedding day when I was struggling to DIY it. I'm so glad I chose her to photograph my wedding!

Kate photographed our wedding at Space Gallery and did such a phenomenal job every step of the way. Our photos turned out fantastic, and I absolutely loved working with her! We met with multiple photographers before booking, and Kate stood out right away for how laid back and easy to talk to she is. She also was very upfront and transparent with pricing, which was not true of most of the other photographers we met with. She made our day a breeze, really helped us with logistics, and managed to capture our personalities in our photos. Book Kate now - you will be so thrilled you did!

Kate did such a fantastic job as our photographer for both our engagement photos and wedding ceremony & reception. Kate made us and our family & friends feel very comfortable, and we couldn't have picked someone better to capture our wedding day; she has such a gift for capturing people's personalities in photos. As well, we were very appreciative of her transparent pricing tool on her website and felt overall that she was fair and affordable, but very high quality!

Kate photographed our wedding reception at the Denver Botanic Gardens. I come from a large family and the way she was able to wrangle and direct everyone was incredible. She was efficient and specific and an absolute joy to be around. It felt like having a new friend celebrate our special day with us.

Working with Kate was a dream from start to finish! She is organized, communicative, kind, and so patient. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and safe to be ourselves, and absolutely nailed our photos. I got our sneak peaks and can’t wait to see our whole gallery!

Does everyone look at their wedding photos every day since getting them back or is that me? Kate did an absolutely stunning job and I can't get over it! As we were searching for a photographer, Kate really sold me with her upfront pricing, prompt communication, as well as her beautiful style of photography. Leading up to our wedding, I was worried about the actual process because I get really awkward and uncomfortably when a camera is pointed at me but Kate guided us through prompts that made it more relaxed and fun and the resulting pictures definitely show that. Kate is a the best; book her now!!

Kate was the perfect photographer for our private elopement! After looking around at other photographers, it was a no-brainer to go with Kate for three main reasons: (1) her visible commitment to celebrating queerness, (2) her cool style that matched what we were looking for visually, and (3) her transparent pricing structure that included an elopement package option. Almost no one else tells you up front what it will cost, and very few have a smaller pricing tier for elopements/partial day commitments. Kate was the exception to this! Also, day-of, she was fantastic: she was able to easily take charge and "direct" us, which we definitely needed, since we're not used to being in front of the camera. Her turnaround time was also great--we had our "sneak peek" photos within 4 days, and our full gallery within 3 weeks of our wedding! We highly recommend Kate to anyone who's looking for a photographer!
