Julia and Garrett Kitchen have been such a pleasure to work with throughout the entire wedding process! They are so kind and make you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. They are incredibly talented and capture the emotions associated with the memories in every photograph. We had so much fun working with them and are so grateful to them for beautifully capturing our wedding!
Photography for my wedding was probably the most important thing to me, so I searched long and hard for the right fit. The second I came across Julia's page I loved her style and edits, and I immediately reached out! She was super prompt and amazing about answering all of my many questions, and my now-husband and I even got lunch with her, Garrett, and their adorable son Cove. They quickly seemed like close friends we had known for years- which helped the photo-taking process on the day of seem so easy and effortless!
The wedding planning process can be difficult but choosing the Kitchens to shoot our wedding was by far the easiest and best decision I ever made!! Julia made us feel so comfortable and truly captured who we are and why we love each other so much. Julias style and attention to detail was unrivaled. She was the most genuine, sweetest person and I could not recommend her amazing team enough!!
Hiring the Kitchen’s to photograph our wedding was hands down the best decision we made. Everything was seamless from start to finish and my family still talks about how polite and professional they were during the entire event. Honestly they are truly genuine and a joy to work with, not to mention incredibly talented, and they gave us moments we will cherish forever. We can’t thank them enough!
We are SO thankful that we chose The Kitchens as our photography/videography vendors. From the very first phone call that I had with Julia, I felt like we were instant friends- she was so easy to talk to and she did not beat around the bush with what they offer. None of our engagement or wedding photos felt posed, they really convey the love that we share.
We got married and pregnant and bought a house all before our 1st anniversary , but as I’m finally decorating the walls of our home I was reminded of our beautiful wedding day that Julia so beautiful captured!! Her style was exactly what I was looking for. Everywhere I looked I kept coming across the very pale, bright, white wash and very posed wedding photos that all looked the same to me. Then I stumbled across “sincerely the kitchens” Instagram and felt like I hit the jackpot! From the first phone call I felt like I was talking to an old friend. She got my relaxed vibe, understood my stress and was totally on board with my vision. Julia captured more than just photos. She captured moments, feelings, and memories I can travel back to every time I look at our wedding photos. You can’t put a price on that.
