Kayleen Shearer Photography

Above and Beyond!

What a gem Kayleen was! She was referred to me by a friend, and I was NOT disappointed! Kayleen is swwwt and fun and SO TALENDED! Her work is incredible, and she caters it SO well to what you want on your day! She was flexible and rolled with the punches. I HIGHLY recommend her work!

Kayleen was absolutely wonderful!

Kayleen was absolutely wonderful! From our first conversation, she felt like a close friend who was along for the ride, directing us for our engagement shoot and capturing every moment of our wedding perfectly. She was so kind, understanding, and receptive to our ideas, working with us to provide perfect moments. She was such a wonderful, energetic person to spend a good chunk of our wedding day with and the photos turned out amazing! Not only that, she had our wedding highlights back to us within 48 hours and our entire album back within 8 weeks! (Which was well over 1000 pictures, each one edited perfectly!) We loved working with Kayleen, have personally recommended her to our friends, and will continue to recommend her! She's the absolute best! Jack and Kelly :)

Kayleen was simply amazing to the fullest extent!

Kayleen was simply amazing to the fullest extent! Our wedding photos turned out so beautiful. From start to finish, she was organized, communicative, and friendly. I am self-conscious behind the camera and she listened to my wacky requests. I even had a friend reach out to see if Kayleen could shoot their wedding coming up!

Kayleen is the best photographer I have ever worked with. She made my dream wedding a reality. She perfectly captured the aesthetic I was going for, as well as candid moments of my family and friends. I’m especially grateful for her being willing to take photos outside in negative weather in the coldest day in NYC in 50 years. She is a dream and such a kind person! 10/10!! 🩷

From the moment we found Kayleen, everything just clicked. I was a complete nervous wreck four months out from our wedding with no photographer, convinced that all the good ones were booked, that I’d have to compromise on style, or blow our budget. Within seconds of reviewing Kayleen’s portfolio and confirming her pricing, I knew she was the one and was praying she wasn’t already taken. After speaking with her, that feeling was only reinforced. What really set Kayleen apart for us: Photo style: Her style is exactly what I’d been searching for. I wanted timeless, natural images without heavy filters, moody edits, color overlays, or trendy effects that won’t age well. So many photographers claim that style, but Kayleen genuinely embodies it, and it shows beautifully in our wedding photos. Thoughtful pricing & packages: From a practical standpoint, her pricing and packages were incredibly thoughtful. The second-shooter option was very reasonable compared to others we looked at, which made it an easy yes for us, and it truly paid off. The volume of photos, the coverage, and how thoroughly the day was captured impressed everyone we shared them with. Our second shooter, M, was also wonderful and such a bright presence on the day. Presence on the wedding day: Kayleen herself is an absolute joy. I don’t know how to pose at all, and she guided me effortlessly, telling me exactly what to do in a way that felt natural, relaxed, and never awkward. She was patient, positive, calming, and such a grounding force on a fast-paced wedding day. She also worked seamlessly and collaboratively with our videographer, even though they weren’t from the same team, which we really appreciated. Intentionality & instinct: What stood out most was how intentional she is. She captures moments for people, not just for a certain aesthetic, delivering variety and real content without sacrificing beauty. She even made thoughtful edits on her own, like removing our officiant from a key ceremony photo, something I only realized later because the image looked so seamless. That kind of instinct and attention to what couples will truly treasure speaks volumes. Smooth, professional process: On top of all that, her business process is incredibly smooth and user-friendly, from questionnaires to payments to communication. Kayleen exceeded every expectation we had. If you’re looking for someone talented, intentional, kind, professional, and genuinely invested in your experience, you can’t do better! We’re beyond grateful we found her.
