Welcome!! I am Karen Anderson an award winning photographer based in Co. Tyrone Northern Ireland.
I began my photography journey photographing, families, children and newborn, under my sister company KAptured Moments. Initially I had no intention of ever getting into wedding photography, but I was advised to try it once before deciding against it. I was bitten by the bug and I absolutely love it. I love my time spent with the bride during bridal prep, helping calm any nerves. I love joking with my grooms before the bride arrives, to help give them focus and to stop any worrying. I love the intimate shots with just the happy couple and the fun of bridesmaid and groomsmen, who are so ready to start the party. The family shots that I know will hang on mums wall for years to come. I love listening to all the speeches and hearing about how couples met, who made the first move. The best man speeches that make me feel like I know the couple. To stunning first dances that would just take your breath away.
I am a married mum of 4. I have 3 children with autism so photography provides me a much needed creative outlet. My oldest daughter, who is 5, especially loves to watch me edit weddings, she is already imagining herself as a princess who has found her prince.
I pride myself on being approachable and down to earth. My couples always say how easy I made the photography side, keeping then from feeling nervous or self conscious. By the end of the couple shoot my aim to to have you feeling that being infront of a camera together is the most natural thing in the world.
Now the technical bit, I shoot with 2/3 cameras and 35mm/50mm/85mm and 135mm lenses. My cameras are Nikon D850 and Z6ii. My digital delivery is on a 32gb presentation USB box n walnut wood. My albums can be viewed in the studio for selecting the exact type you want.
I would be so happy to photograph your day and give you stunning memories to keep forever.
Karen.
