Kate McCarthy Photography

We had Kate as our wedding photographer and we can't imagine having picked anyone else! She really made us feel relaxed and at ease, both because of her insane organisational skills on the day (including herding our friends and relatives into position!) and because she was so friendly and personable from the first time we spoke on video call. We've loved the sneak peak pictures we've seen so far and can't wait for our full album.

We absolutely cannot recommend Kate enough. We first met her at our friend’s wedding in 2022 and we were over the moon when we found out she was available for our date in May 2023. Kate was an absolute superstar on our big day and we genuinely don’t know what we would have done without her! She was on top of everything all day and communicated so clearly with the venue staff and the wedding party so that we didn’t have to worry about anything. She guided us through the day with a smile making it all just feel SO easy and enjoyable and managed to capture all aspects of our day perfectly. From candid shots of the guests having fun to couple portraits and family pictures which seemed to take no time at all. All our family commented on how great Kate was and no-one felt ‘detained’ having to wait behind for photos because Kate was so organised and efficient it hardly took any time at all. From the moment we booked her, Kate kept in touch regularly and provided loads of useful tips about planning the wedding and what to expect from her on the day. We loved our pre-wedding shoot which neither of us expected to and Kate made us feel at ease straight away despite neither of us being particularly confident having our picture taken. We couldn’t be happier with our photos from the wedding and would recommend Kate to any couple in a heartbeat! Thank you so much Kate for being SO lovely and making our day so perfect we couldn’t have done it without you!

Kate was the most wonderful wedding photographer and I simply cannot recommend her enough! Her photographs are absolutely stunning and it was so lovely to work with her on the day. She couldn’t have been more helpful and we are delighted with our images.Stop searching for a photographer and book Kate immediately!

Kate was amazing on our wedding day! So nice and fun to be around and the images she created for us were absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend

We were lucky to work with some incredible suppliers to make our wedding a reality, but Kate was without question our MVP. She absolutely made our wedding day.Neither of us are that keen on having our photos taken, but Kate built up a fantastic rapport with us and had great communication throughout, and it really built our confidence to relax in front of the camera on the day.Kate is a great communicator, really professional in her approach, well turned out and presentable, utterly lovely and friendly with venue staff and guests alike, and last but not least, she is incredibly talented at what she does. She brings an element of fun to her work and seemed to be everywhere all day.Our photos are so beautiful, we simply can't stop looking at them. She has created timeless images we will treasure forever.

Kate’s been taking photos of my little family since my first son was born. She’s absolutely wonderful and has been able to capture some truly magical moments. She really has a talent to capture the best bits and her pictures tell stories. She’s also an incredible human that you’ll love to hang out with which is always a bonus.

Kate was a joy to work with from start to finish. All of our guests commented on how great she was on the day (organisation, troubleshooting, positivity) - and that was before they saw any photos!Her photos are beautiful and a perfect reflection of our wedding day. We can’t stop looking at them! We already knew that we loved her candid shots but they exceeded expectations, and we will treasure the moments she captured for years to come.We are so glad Kate was a part of our day (the easiest decision we made!), and would recommend her in a heartbeat.
