The Process

next step

Let's be Friends- Video Chat

One of our brides once said to us, “It’s so important that you LOVE your wedding photographer and enjoy spending time with them, because you will ultimately spend the most time with them on your wedding day!”  K&S couples are unique in that they work very hard to find the right photographer that they can trust, that is consistent with the style they love, and that they get along with well. With that said, the K&S experience starts out with a FaceTime "double date" so we can to get to know each other, hear each others’ stories, ask any questions, and to see if we’re a match made in heaven!

01.

It’s Official! You’re a K&S Couple!

Once your contract & reservation retainer is turned in…. we're officially reserved for your wedding date! We’re your wedding photographers and you’re a K&S couple!!! We will then move on towards planning your engagement session. All of our couples receive our exclusive K&S Engagement Style Guide that we created to help guide you through wardrobe, hair & makeup, location, lighting, and more! We will be there for you to offer any tips and answer any questions you may have! 

02.

Your Engagement Session

Now the fun can really begin! After you get a chance to look through our K&S Style Guide, we can book your engagement session! We LOVE helping our couples feel comfortable before and on their session- I mean, being in front of a camera can be intimidating right!? During your shoot, we will spend the first 10 minutes going over our posing system to make sure you feel confident as all get out! Our engagement session is complementary because we want to make sure that you feel absolutely comfortable with us come your wedding day, and getting to hang out with us with our cameras involved we believe is KEY for that. After your engagement session, you will be featured on the K&S Blog and shortly after receive an online gallery with your images to download and use as you please!

03.

Timeline & Gameplan

Two months out from your wedding, we will send you our wedding day questionnaire. This questionnaire allows us to be 100% prepared for your big day! It gives us the information we need to create the perfect & custom photography timeline for your wedding. After specializing in weddings for almost over a decade, we will come along side your wedding planner to create a  schedule for your bride & groom portraits, bridal party portraits, and family portraits to ensure the most magical lighting possible!!! As you get to know us, you will find that lighting is one of our top priorities in our shooting method!

04.

Your Wedding Day! 

Your day is here and we are 100% ready to go!!! Time for you to relax and enjoy your day knowing that all of your precious moments will be captured. We have your custom photography timeline, your family portrait list, any special requests, and of course all of our equipment charged & ready to document your day! Your wedding will eventually become a blur to you, so we make it our priority to serve you well in capturing both traditional portraits AND beautiful, candid moments that shape your wedding day. Just a short week after your wedding, you will be featured on the K&S Blog! Your blog post will be filled with our very favorite images from your wedding for you to enjoy before receiving your full gallery! We know that there is a cloud nine window where you, your family, and your guests simply can’t wait to see your photos, and we don’t like to keep our couples waiting!

05.

Gallery Delivery + Album Design

Six weeks after your wedding day, you will receive an online gallery of your wedding photos…. hundreds and HUNDREDS of them!! We encourage our couples to make it a special “date night in” and to kick back with some bubbly and enjoy reliving their wedding day through their images. Soon after your gallery is delivered and after you have selected your very favorite images, we will begin our album design process together! Your wedding album will be an heirloom that your family holds near and dear to their hearts for generations to come. With that said, our three-round-proofing process ensures that it is absolutely perfect for you before sending to the lab! 

06.

Enjoy and Cherish Your Wedding Day For Life

After all the emotions, all the work, and all the investments you made into your wedding day, you now have something that you can hold on to and cherish forever. Something your kids and maybe even grandkids will enjoy seeing someday. Something that will be an heirloom (especially if you decided to invest in an album!) Our hearts is that your wedding photos will always be a reminder to you, during the good times and bad times, of why you decided to commit your lives to one another in the first place: your deep love for each other! 

The K&S Experience doesn't end here! We hope to grow in friendship with each and every one of our couples! We always say... Once a K&S Bride, always a K&S bride!

The best wedding decision I made (with the exception of choosing my groom) was having Kalahan and Sean be our photographers!

- Brianne & Jon

The best wedding decision I made (with the exception of choosing my groom) was having Kalahan and Sean be our photographers! The entire experience working with them was perfect and even better than what I expected. They're very skilled and give great direction for taking great photos, and at the same time you'll feel comfortable with them and become friends (even for camera shy people).

They were always on time, delivered on their commitments, creative with lighting and cold weather, and very encouraging. And, importantly, they captured the love between my husband and I, and the joy that we and our guests felt on our wedding day. Our engagement photos and wedding photos look AMAZING! We continuously have family and friends bring up how awesome our photos turned out. Definitely hire Kalahan and Sean to be your photographers!

The K&S Experience

Who better to tell you what it's like than the couples who've been there? 

kalahan & sean made our wedding so much better than we'd ever imagined

-Aaron & Michaela

Kalahan and Sean are amazing. We heard about them after having been referred to them by two coworkers of mine, and after a stellar review by both, we decided to meet up with them. As soon as we met them, Michaela and I felt an instantaneous connection with both Sean and Kalahan (and their precious baby, Ireland, whom is adorable.) We loved every second we had working with them, and love how they just have fun with their work and make it fun to be pointed at with cameras.

We feel truly blessed with having gotten to know them and are amazed with all of the pictures they have taken of us, they all turned out fantastic. Michaela and I would 10/10 recommend them to whoever if they are looking for photographers, and what makes them even better, is they are a husband and wife duo that works together seamlessly. Kalahan & Sean made our wedding so much better than we'd imagined.

kalahan and sean saved my life on my wedding day

- Vadim & haley

Kalahan & Sean saved my life on my wedding day. They were truly the people that calmed us down, protected us from potential meltdowns (people crashing our first look photos, my makeup melting off completely, etc) and led us through things. We loved that Sean was with the guys while getting ready, and Kalahan with us girls! They both fit right in. They were not not only skilled photographers, but they really cared about our wellbeing and the rest of the bridal party! They make weddings a dream come true for the bride and groom through communication and truly served others well. They're leaders with good humor, they easily get along with every personality in the book.... AND they make everyone look good in photos. Sean and Kalahan are the definition of TEAM and it was such a great presence to have around! 

From the point of first contact to the weeks post-wedding, Kalahan and Sean exceeded our expectations

- Kelsey & Alex

Asking someone to capture the best day of your life is a big task; but Alex and I truly believe Kalahan and Sean did just that. From the point of first contact to the weeks post-wedding, Kalahan and Sean exceeded our expectations. They were always friendly, responsive, and patient. K&S also offer an “engagement session” which we loved! It was a great chance to see each other and share ideas about the months to come.

When they arrived at our venue the day of they Kalahan and Sean were so compassionate and professional. On-time and ready to shoot! Throughout the entire day, they were patient when it came to slight changes in the schedule. Especially when it came to family portraits, Kalahan so understanding when it came to our last minute ideas. We LOVE how our pictures turned out. Kalahan and Sean went above and beyond and we would highly recommend them.
