Wow, I just received the most amazing thank you letter from Kate & Kyle I just had to share it with you. It’s one of the most unique thank you letters I’ve ever received and really made me glow inside and out. Thanks Kate and Kyle, I love you guys…you’re the best! And I want to thank YOU for choosing me as your wedding photographer.

Dear Jen,

Thank you so much for being our wedding photographer. We had a wonderful experience working with you and are thrilled with the results. In lieu of a more traditional note, we’ve decided instead to list the Top Ten Reasons Why We’re Happy We Chose You:

10. We were able to see proofs online days after the weddings, and not long after that all of the prints arrived in a hand-picked album and matching photo box along with a DVD with every set - in color and in black-and-white - to boot.

9. You got every shot we talked about prior to the event and managed to get a myriad of shots we hadn’t even thought about - but would have been sorry if they’d been missed.

8. Your “open door policy” was so helpful to us. We had lots of questions and ideas throughout the entire process, yet you were always able and happy to get back to us quickly.

7. We knew we didn’t want a traditional posed format of commemorating our special day, and your photojournalistic style captured the true spirit of our wedding perfectly.

6. You arrived on the day well prepared, with plenty of equipment and a well defined schedule and plan of attack.

5. In spite of best laid plans, not everything went as we anticipated, and you ability to be flexible in the moment and adjust for location and time changes ensured that we still ended up with everything we had hoped for…

4. …including large group shots in less than ideal places. Your creative use of our surroundings made impromptu arrangements into unique and memorable moments.

3. Going through all of our prints, we were surprised by the number of shots that we had no idea you were taking. Your ability to be discrete and blend into the melee that was our wedding while still getting beautiful photos is an amazing skill.

2. Your policy of covering the entire wedding day not only relieved the worry of missing all of the moments we wanted to remember, but also reassured us of your commitment to capturing our whole wedding rather than just the “Kodak moments.”

And the #1 reason why We’re Happy We Chose You:

1. Your awesome personality. Your easy-going, positive attitude and constant smile made it an absolute pleasure to work with you from the intimate engagement shoot right through to the raucous last dance.

Thanks again for doing such a fabulous job. We look forward to another opportunity to work with you in the future.

All the best to you and your family,

Kate & Kyle
