kind words from clients

"The most amazing, kind, and genuine wedding photographer you will ever meet. Kate not only helped up plan and navigate a two times postponed wedding, she quickly became our friend through the process."

 - Ally + Jake

"We cannot overstate how wonderful Kate is. We had the most incredible time working with her. Beforehand, both of us would have said we were a bit camera shy. But Kate had us smiling, laughing, and being our regular goofy selves within minutes."

- Katherine + Mo

"Kate is a poetic and noble land-mermaid! From her attention to detail and personal touches to her warm, cheerful personality...we honestly wouldn't have made it through our wedding day (or the planning process) without her."

- Briana + Danny

"Kate is able to bring colors to life and capture the emotion of moments in a photo. We could not have made a better decision than choosing her. Her style is different, bright, and full of love. Kate, thank you. We couldn't be happier!"

 - Kelsey + Matt

"10/10 would hire over and over again!!! Kate has been the most supportive, most personable vendor since day 1. Ever since our first chat, we knew she was the one! She is always quick to respond and was there for us every step of the way. "

- Sarah + Charlie

"Kate felt like a close friend spending the day by my side. We are so grateful for her and her talent. She is an artist for artists and goes out of her way to make your experience unique and better than you could have hoped"

- Kris + Andrew

frequently asked questions

answer:

Although I am based in the Asbury Park, New Jersey area (and I know it like the back of my hand), I travel anywhere in NJ at no additional cost. I also photograph in NYC, Philadelphia and other destinations around the United States (for a nominal travel fee). Message me for information about destination weddings!

answer:

Engagement sessions are an excellent dry run before your wedding day, so I love to include a complimentary session that will take place within 30 miles of Asbury Park (a travel fee may apply for sessions in further destinations). Check out some of my favorite spots from previous sessions for inspiration!

answer:

Great question! The women I regularly work with are far from novices— they own & operate their own photography companies. You can rest assured that my right-hand gal will be skilled, dynamic, and absolutely professional (plus, you'll love her). 

answer:

Your wedding photography investment is equally divided into four payments, beginning with your retainer upon booking. Your final payment is scheduled for one month before your wedding, so you don't have to worry about anything on your wedding day. 

answer:

Yes! In fact, we make ordering your photos an absolute breeze by offering printing options directly through your digital gallery. Want a certain image in an 8x10? No problem! Just add to the cart. The same option is available for anyone with whom your share your gallery, and the prints will ship directly to them. Our lab is top of the line, so all of your images will be color-correct and picture-perfect.

answer:

Nope— that's just not my style. But I'd adore it if you tagged me or used my hashtag, #KateOpalCouples!

answer:

Weddings: You'll receive sneak peek photos within one week of your wedding so you can relive the romance on your honeymoon and update those profile pictures STAT. The rest of your wedding photo gallery will be delivered within 90 days.

Engagements: Engagement photo sessions are returned within 3-4 weeks after your session, so you can start ordering your Save the Dates right away.

answer:

I will, indeed! Just inquire about travel or destination wedding packages if you're outside of New Jersey. I don't charge any travel fees for weddings within NJ.

answer:

Thank you for thinking of me for your Mitzvah, maternity, etc. I am honored to be considered; however, at this time, I am only focusing on weddings and engagements. Weddings typically book 12-18 months in advance, and I adore celebrating couples in love!
