Katie Shuler
Jordan & KC
Katie Shuler is an amazing human being and we are so incredibly fortunate to have had her capture our special day. As we were looking for photographers, one of our key requirements was that they had to care about us, our love, and our wedding. With so many photographers in LA, talent is all around. It’s Katie’s unique combination of her ability to capture the subtlety in every moment, coordinate the crowds (both vendors and family/friends), provide world-class results in a fraction of the time and have it all delivered with love that sets her apart from everyone we spoke to. Katie truly cares about the people she works with. Whether it was those first calls, the engagement photos or the wedding day, every time we met with her we walked away saying “I’m so happy she is behind the camera” (and also “We should totally hang out with her”). This was not just felt by us, but by our family and friends as well. She impressed everyone with her professionalism, polish, and ability to gracefully move through the night- getting the right photos but not imposing upon the flow of the evening. Katie’s work is art- and we are so grateful that her photography embodied how we felt that day. Revisiting her photos brought us back to those moments in time and that’s everything you could ever ask for!

Katie Shuler is more than just a photographer, she is a kind, loving and exceptionally talented friend and we are so lucky she captured our big day! It all started back when my husband and I were on the hunt to find the perfect photographer for our wedding. Perfect for us, of course. After stalking Katie’s instagram and blog for days, I had a different feeling with her work. Her photos spoke a thousand words – they were effortless, romantic and natural; everything we were looking for. From the moment we spoke over the phone, we immediately knew she was just right photographer for us. She asked all the right questions, prepped us for the engagement shoot and got us thinking about how we envisioned our wedding day. Our first time meeting Katie was when she shot our engagement photos in the most stunning of places, deep in the hills of Malibu canyon. She has such a unique eye for a beautiful backdrop, soft lighting and we immediately felt comfortable in her hands.
When our big day came along, it wasn’t until Katie walked through my bridal suite door that everything really sank in. She came in with the biggest smile and immediately started taking photos of everything. She looks after every tiny detail and makes it a priority to get every shot you wanted, and more. I love how she offers a mix of film and digital, as they are so different yet both so beautiful! My husband and I shared so many intimate and special memories throughout the day, I am so thankful Katie was there to capture it all. I look back at all our photos and they continue to take my breath away. She captured all the emotions, intimate moments, tiny details, all the smiles, the laughs, tears of joy, crazy dance moves, hugs, hand shakes, but most especially, she captured all the love our wedding had to offer.
I cant wait to work with Katie again! Once we grow our family, she will be the first we call. Katie – we love you and can’t thank you enough!!!!

Katie Shuler is undoubtedly one of the most talented photographers in Los Angeles. From first contact to the day of our wedding, Katie’s effort to get to know us as a couple and understand our vision was nothing short of amazing. Beyond her extraordinary talent, Katie is such a delight to be around and exudes nothing but positivity. On our wedding day, we’ll never forget how Katie went above and beyond her duties as a photographer to assist our coordinator in making sure everything was transitioning perfectly and that my wife and I were having the best time possible. Our photo albums, both engagement and wedding, were delivered early and in a format that was very user-friendly. Katie is the full package of beautiful photos, professionalism and charm that made our wedding day so special — hiring her is hands down the best decision we made throughout the wedding planning process!
James & Cayley
If I could summarize my experience working with Katie in one word, it would be, “WOW.” My husband and I immediately fell in love with Katie’s romantic and effortless style. From our first conversation, Katie was extremely warm, professional, and knowledgeable and helped us to narrow down the vision for our wedding. Because my husband is in the military, we had a few unexpected changes to our schedule, however, Katie was incredibly gracious and was happy to accommodate us.
On the day of our wedding, Katie was nothing short of fabulous. She has such a keen eye for beautiful details, and we were amazed by her ability to capture the special moments throughout the day. I was so thankful for her calming presence and despite the hot weather and our large wedding party, every shot looked beautiful and effortless. Katie’s second shooter, Wade, was also fantastic and made my husband and his groomsmen feel comfortable and relaxed, which was no small feat! It was clear that Katie had taken the time to scout the venue beforehand as she managed to find the most beautiful spots for our portraits. The results were simply breathtaking.
We love looking back at our photos and reliving each of the special moments, details, and raw emotions captured in each photo. Katie made it possible for our vision to become a reality and choosing her to capture our wedding day was the best decision we made in the entire planning process. We appreciated her open communication, organization, and flexibility before, during, and after the wedding. We can’t wait to work with her in the future for other events, but until then, we cannot recommend her enough!

Katie’s impact on our wedding day was profound. She enhanced us on our wedding day; she made us feel unique, beautiful.. she echoed our love & we had the utmost confidence that our memories were in great hands. Throughout the course of our wedding season, Katie became more than our photographer; she became a friend who I contemplated dress decisions with, discussed color palettes with, & I was constantly & effortlessly reminded that we made the right decision to not just “choose” Katie, but to partner with Katie, creating the most perfect memories that will last our lifetime. Katie has an incredible, natural talent & I am forever grateful for her & the memories she captured of our wedding.

Katie is AWESOME. My photos are more incredible than I could have ever imagined, and I had very high expectations. She truly delivered beautiful images that I will cherish forever. The romantics (the photos we took on the beach) are gorgeous, and she did a great job capturing candid moments as well. In addition to the great product, Katie is a sweetheart. From the engagement shoot and through the entire process, she was very professional and really listened to what I was hoping to accomplish. This was one of the best decisions I made, other than picking the right guy!
