We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Katherine Chambers Photography! Katherine was so patient with my 3 year old and newborn. My 3 year old does not like to sit still but she managed to capture some amazing pictures! We will definitely be utilizing her services in the future for family pictures and my son's 1 year pictures! The quality was also great! We highly recommend!

Katherine is an amazing photographer. She is easy to work with, very responsive and does a fantastic job. I was so happy with my baby's newborn photos that I decided to hire Katherine for the one year smash cake photoshoot as well. Needless to say, our family will continue to have Katherine document milestones and memories for years to come.

Katherine is truly an artist! To me, pictures are priceless as they capture important moments in our life. Her work transcends photography. We hired Katherine to capture our first week of life as new parents with our precious daughter in the newborn session. Katherine truly understands her subject (newborns) & works on their time frame. She's extremely caring & patient. Really knows how to handle newborns & is just comfortable with them- this is extremely apparent & comforting as a first time Mom.
She stops for diaper changes, feedings & the necessary mommy snuggles. She keeps the studio very warm, so i had no worries of temperature disregulation from a health standpoint and overall comfort of my daughter. Her studio is immaculately clean, so i had no worries of cross contamination to our little girl with that of other children who have been in the studio- and this is coming from a healthcare provider. If you are looking for perfection, Katherine is your gal!

Katherine is absolutely the best! She's photographed my kids as newborns through one year, maternity photos for me and many family photos as well. Her artistic eye and attention to detail has provided our family with many many beautiful photos for our family to treasure for years to come! We've also gotten lots of complements from family and friends on her photos and I always recommend her services. Newborn photos especially are a specialty that not all photographers can do well and she definitely always does an A+ job! Highly recommended!
