About Happy Out Photography

Katie Kelly

Owner + Lead Photographer

Happy Out derives from Irish origin- ‘a feeling or strong emotion that you can’t quite put into words about how you are feeling in that moment…blissful, joyful, or pleased is just not enough to convey to others about the butterflies you have in your stomach and that permanent smile you can’t wipe of your face.’ So why is this important? — This is the feeling you should have throughout the entire wedding photography + videography experience, and more importantly when you look back at your once in a lifetime moments in your portraits and film.

    We found Katie and her team on The Knot after searching weeks for a photography/videography team. We talked to many vendors, but none really understood our relationship/vision quite like Katie. On our first conference call, she made us feel so comfortable and ran through every detail with us. We chose her photography and videography package and also added a ceremony and speech taping. We worked with the Owner, Katie, the entire time and did not meet the second photographer or videographer until the morning of the wedding which was fine. Katie filled them in on everything and I felt like everyone was all on the same page. Our engagement session took place in September 2019 in front of the Phipps Conservatory. She let us do 3 outfit changes and even stayed a little longer after the sun went down to capture a quick photo shoot that was an ode to our love of movies. The engagement pictures came back quickly and were wonderful! She walked us through a lot of poses but also let us just do our own thing. My wedding fell into the “Covid-19” category so we had to postpone our June wedding until August. Our wedding day went on without any issues. Katie and her team went to my house first to capture my husband and his groomsmen then they came to our location to capture me and my bridesmaids. Since there were two photographers, I assumed that they were each going to come to each location, but that wasn’t the case. We weren’t rushed for time so it didn’t matter, but I just thought it was strange they stayed together instead of separating to capture more moments. Katie and her team captured the ceremony so well. The pictures were absolutely fabulous and truly captured the moments and the emotions behind them. The video was a standard camera that didn’t move so sometimes it was difficult to see what was happening. I would have liked to see more of the guests reactions. We were told that there would also be drone footage used, but there was no drone used throughout the day. After the ceremony, we stayed on location for bridal party shots and intimate couple shots. Katie walked us through everything and it was done in the hour that we needed it completed by. At the reception, again the events were photographed very well, but once the events stopped and the party began to take place, I’ll be honest I was a little disappointed in what was captured. I had asked Katie to take pictures of every table while we were making our rounds, but neither of the photographers followed us. Then during the reception, I wish that I would have asked Katie to capture more pictures of us with the guests. There were plenty of candid pictures of guests talking in groups, but no posed pictures of guests looking at the camera. I don’t really have any professional photos of me and guests other than my bridal party and family. One of my biggest disappointments after looking through pictures was that there is no picture of me and my mother on my wedding day. I have lots with my dad, but none with just my mom or just my parents. My husband had extra time with the photographers in the morning so he has a lot of family shots, but unfortunately, I don’t. DO NOT GET ME WRONG - my wedding pictures are AMAZING and Katie did a fabulous job. We received numerous compliments on her work. I just feel like if you use her, you need to make an exact list of who and what you want pictures of or it will not be captured. I recommend Katie’s services to any upcoming brides!!!
