Kari Dawson Photography - Bruce Township, Michigan

Kari came highly recommended and did not disappoint! The quality of Kari's work stood out to us when we were still looking at photographers for our wedding, and ultimately was the deciding factor for us. Kari was friendly and professional throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond our expectations to give us the best possible engagement photos and wedding photos. We are so happy with our photos and know we made the right decision!

Kari was the first vendor we selected for our wedding, almost 2 years out! She took care of us from our engagement photos all the way through to our wedding albums, and was one of our primary resources for navigating the wedding planning process. As a couple who chose to forego a videographer, we couldn’t be happier with all the photos we have to remember the best day of our lives! Each and every one takes us back to a wonderful moment in time and brings a smile to our face. They encapsulate what that day meant to us, our friends, and our family. It was a day full of love, fun, and everybody coming together, and Kari, Karli, and Kerby captured it all.

Kari and her team were an absolute joy to work with and checked every single box for us. They helped us plan the day to perfection, and were a subtle but constant presence. Truly exactly what we hoped for from our photographers, and a team that made the day even more fun with their presence.

A 6 star performance from Kari made our wedding a picture perfect day. We’re confident Kari can make any wedding unforgettable!

Kari is superb!!!! I am so in love my wedding reception photos. You can easily tell what an expert photographer she is throughout the whole process from start to finish. She is well-prepared, professional and so warm and friendly; she really made us feel so at ease during our photo shoots. I cannot recommend her enough!! If you are on the fence about hiring her - don't be, she is amazing & you won't regret the beautiful memories she captures for you.

Choose Kari for your photographer! You will not regret it, she is hands down the best. Not only is she an amazing photographer with an eye for detail but she is also an amazing, kind, and thoughtful person. Kari is able to capture the emotions in her photographs so well. We hired Kari a year in advance and after meeting her virtually we just knew she was the right one for us, she was real. Although it was a year out when we hired her, it felt like she was with us every step of the way, with helpful tips or for any questions or advice. Kari knows how to get her couples comfortable and be their natural selves in front of the camera. She also has a calming presence about her, which was so appreciated during the big day, She is able to read the room and the emotions so well. We trusted her completely and her photographs were beyond our expectations. When we first got our photos we were obsessed with how good they looked and couldn't stop ourselves from going through them again and again. We were immediately brought back to the day and the emotions we felt. She captured so many good details and we feel so much joy when we look at each picture. Our family and friends were also obsessed! Her pictures are being lovingly displayed in our house, and they're exactly what I hoped for.

Kari was absolutely amazing to work with. From the moment I saw her work I knew I wanted her to be my wedding photographer. She was very communicative leading up to the wedding day. On the actual day she helped keep things moving along and got all the shots I asked for. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable. My final pictures were delivered only a few weeks after the wedding. They were absolutely amazing! She captured the day beautifully. I have received SO many compliments on what a wonderful job she did. If you are thinking of working with Kari, please do it. You will not be disappointed. Her work is worth every penny.

My husband and I cannot begin to think how to put into words how much we enjoyed Kari and Karli being apart of our wedding day. From the moment we talked to Kari on the phone, it just felt right having her there. The pair of them was like having another friend standing by your side on your wedding day. They kept our nerves calm, wrangled a bunch of random people, and ensured that every little moment of our wedding was captured. After our album was delivered, my husband and I really took time to go through the photos and it was truly magical was they captured. It brought back so many beautiful and happy memories from our wedding day. There will never be enough words or enough thank you's to this power duo for the photos they captured. I would hire Kari and Karli a million times over for my wedding and I highly recommend hiring them for yours!

I feel like your wedding photographer is probably at the top of being the most important vendor you could have. And I am so incredibly grateful we found Kari. Right from the beginning, she was so easy to talk to and her work is just perfection. I feel like its important to be comfortable with your photographer as they are the ones that will be right next other you all day and you’ll be speaking to them before, during, and after the wedding. And Kari is honestly so supportive throughout the whole process. Knowing that we are planning a wedding out of state, she was easy to communicate with. We went through timelines, talked about what shots we wanted, and looked through some of her previous work to see if there were any “must have” similar shots.

It’s also the small touches - she reached out to us on our “engagement-versary”, messaged us on our “date-versary” and was just such a cheerleader on social media. Even though we didn’t actually meet her until our wedding day, it was like we knew her already. She got allllll of the shots and more. Posed pictures are nice, but it’s the candid shots that make our hearts soar, and she and her team got the best of the best. Her work product is amazing and working with her was just so easy and stress free.

Kari was such an amazing photographer! I had the chance to work with her during the engagement session and wedding of my best friend (and my MOH) so I already knew she was going to be good. My friend raved about her and when the time came for me to get married I knew I had to have her! Kari has an eye for getting some really great shots and is excellent with giving direction and making sure everyone looked their best. She helped make sure we got every photo we wanted and was super quick about it so that we had time to enjoy our wedding. She also captured some really great candid shots during the event as well. We couldn't be happier with her work and are looking forward to getting our album from her soon!
