Kris and John were just amazing! They are the sweetest couple and make you feel so special and comfortable. On the day of, I really felt like I had a wedding planner and photographer in one. I think my girls and I would have been lost without Kris and her helpful direction. The photos are just gorgeous - looks like they came right from a magazine!

KM Photography was absolutely amazing to work with. I am forever grateful to Kris and John for their natural talent to capture all the special moments and the love on our wedding day. Kris and John were very helpful with picking a location to take pictures and were also helpful with anything we needed that day.

In researching photographers, KM photography was such an easy choice. Our initial meeting with Kris and her presentation of work was that feeling you get when you know, "it's the ONE!" Kris and John took our breath away with the engagement pictures and we can only imagine what the wedding pictures will be like. They know how to capture a moment which otherwise would escape with the blink of an eye, preserving them for us to cherish and live over and over. They were wonderful to work with and you can see they love what they do. Their work speaks for itself.

As the mother of the groom and with experience from my daughter's wedding several years ago, Kris and John were amazing to work with. They were kind and caring, flexible and worth every penny for their work. Kris came to the hotel while my daughter in law and her bridesmaids were getting dressed and rode in the limo to the church taking some amazing pictures. John went with my son, the groom, and his groomsmen and photographed them at the church before hand. THey were so sweet to work with, putting everyone at ease. After the church, they went back to the Yorktowne and were there for several hours; toward the end of the reception when I realized we had not gotten extended family pics, they were even kind enough to stay a bit longer and do that for us as well. I would recommend them above any photographer around. They truly are the best!

Kris and John are absolutely amazing! Awesome to work with. So very talented- their style is not posed or rehearsed, but rather so natural. Our photos looked like they belonged in Vogue magazine!! Rarely will you find such talent in people who are so amazingly awesome to work with, and reasonably priced!! We recommend them to anyone!!!!!

Kris and John's work is absolutely flawless - every single photo of ours looks like it came from a spread in Vogue. I cannot say how pleased I am that we chose them as our wedding photographers. Their portraits are gorgeous, but their real skill is in capturing all of the little moments from the day that you don't want to forget.

We feel so blessed to have found Kris & John. Not only are they unbelievably talented (both our engagement photos and wedding photos were all stunning - we got SO many compliments - I wish we could buy them all!), they are so easy and fun to work with. I was planning my Pennsylvania wedding from my new home in Texas, and Kris not only helped me get all the photography stuff in order, she even helped me find a videographer and florist, who were both AMAZING. My wedding would not have been what it was without Kris & John, and we have the most beautiful photos to remember it by.

Kris and John at KMPhotography were an absolute FANTASTIC team of photographers! I gave Kris and John a list of the shots we wanted during the wedding and they sure did their homework!! They were working the guests and the bridal party just as we requested. Kris made the "getting ready" process a TON of fun and her wedding expertise pulled through! I highly recommend KMPhotography! THANK YOU Kris and John!

I can’t say enough to recommend Kris and John: they were flexible, professional, and super-friendly, attentive to everything we asked for, and going well above and beyond what you’d expect from a photographer. (Kris even sewed my husband’s jacket button back on 10 minutes before the ceremony!) They were willing to help with anything and everything, and to roll with whatever we asked (oh, what if we stood in front of those trees!). They were completely unobtrusive during both ceremony and reception: close enough to capture all the action, but not so close as to disrupt the sacredness of the religious portions or make the guests uncomfortable. Outside the formal posing session (about 15 minutes), they didn’t ask anyone to move or attempt to stage anything: the mark of a true professional! Both Kris and John are great with kids and managed to get smiling, beautiful pictures, even of my sweaty, grumpy nieces. They were careful to capture every detail (the rings at just the right angle, the basket of programs, the flowers) and also the broad strokes (groups of guests, wide angles of outdoor events). I was absolutely amazed at how either Kris or John or both would materialize at just the right moment: they were carefully following the schedule of events, and would be in the perfect position to get the shot, and then disappear again: they’re like wedding ninjas!
As a photog myself, this was by far the most difficult vendor for me to choose. I had to find a photographer whose work I loved, and whom I could trust so completely that I wouldn’t be tempted to pick up a camera myself – no easy feat. Kris and John fit the bill: they took what direction I wanted to offer with a smile, and provided their own ideas and found great shots to take when I was distracted.
And that amazing day-of experience, as incredible as it was, pales in comparison to the beauty and simplicity of the 2,000+ images they gave us. We couldn’t be happier with the quality and variety of the shots: one gorgeous photo after another. Not only are Kris and John great vendors to work with, they are true artists at their craft. Whatever we expected from a photographer (and those expectations were considerable) Kris and John skyrocketed past those expectations at every turn. We came away from our experience with them with a lifetime’s worth of images of our day, and, corny as it sounds, a couple of good friends. Please consider giving Kris and John your business. There’s so much you can’t be sure of when planning a wedding: give yourself something to be certain of by bringing on the best.

We had heard and read such excellent things about Kris and John, so when we got engaged there was no question as to who we wanted to be a part of our special day! Kris and John have phenomenal talent, exquisite taste, and such fun personalities. They were very helpful in the months leading up to our wedding, and on the actual day, our guests raved about how professional and kind they were. When we received our pictures it only confirmed that... Kris and John are the best! We would highly recommend them to any couple (or anyone else for that matter). Thanks for capturing the happiest moments of our lives so beautifully, KMPHOTOGRAPHY!

Kirs and her husband were worth every penny and more! They both did a fantastic job, they were professional and friendly, we could not have asked for a better team. Our family and guests even raved about how amazing their work and behavior was. I highly recommend this amazing duo!!!

Kris and John are a brilliant husband-wife team. Their work really complements the other and you get brilliant photojournalism. Prices are competitive although you dont get any actual pictures with package. The day of the wedding my snack bag went missing and Kris was right there with her own personal snack insisting I eat it. She made my husband and I very comfortable in front of the camera, which we thought would never happen. The pictures we have so far received are beyond words, just beautiful.
GREAT WORK. Couldnt be happier.

Kris and John McElligott’s work is simply remarkable. We look at our wedding photos and are able to relive all the moments that occurred during that wonder whirlwind of a day. KM Photography transcends traditional wedding photography, creating editorial-style art from real life. Everyone comments that our photos should be in a magazine. I cannot recommend them enough. They are kind, professional and beyond talented. The McElligott’s will capture your day as exquisitely as you’ve imagined it.

Sadly, Kris was booked on our wedding date, however she was our Engagement and my Pre-bridal Photographer. Both sessions were so much fun. What an amazingly creative, extraordinary photographer! She made it so easy for my fiance to relax and enjoy the engagement session. Even though it was in the winter, every single image was a keeper. She even made us a beautiful guest book from those images. She also did a very nice Boudoir session. Kris doesn't compromise on her high standards of tastefully -done, clean photography. Her work has been published in several major wedding magazines.
Anyone who is fortunate enough to be able to book KMPhotography for their wedding will have hired one of PA's very best of the best!

Kris and John at KM Photography were absolutely amazing. On the day of the wedding, Kris went above and beyond to help me with details and things that were completely out of the scope of her responsibilities as photographer. Both her and her husband made us feel very comfortable and were extremely accommodating in taking photos of us and our guests. They didn't rest for a minute and took some wonderful shots that really captured all of the candid moments of the wedding. They were a pleasure to work with and I couldn't imagine working with another photographer for your special day. Thank you so much, KM Photography for making our day so special!

Kris takes the best pictures. My wife and I normally do not like photos of ourself but we loved every one that Kris took.
That said she was slow in getting our pictures to us, both our engagement and wedding photos. She also had to send us our pictures a few times because they were lost in the mail or missing something promised. Also, she has issues with getting emails so it was frustrating on both ends with my wife thinking that Kris was not responsive but Kris doing her best to fix the issues.

I could not have been happier with the photos that Kris did for me. I don't really like photographs of myself so I worked with Kris to make a custom package for my wedding. I did not plan on seeing the proofs and liking every one!!! I also like that you are able to purchase a DVD of the photos. She is also able to photoshop things out of the photos and change things. I would definitely recommend KMPhotography for weddings. The only thing is that it is a smaller studio so you should be prepared to wait a little longer for your photos.
