FAQs
What if it rains?
I watch the weather very closely in the days leading up to your session and I will be in touch if there are any concerns. If it does rain, we can either pick a location that has cover, reschedule to a different date, or, if you’re feeling adventurous, have fun in the rain! We will get amazing images no matter what.
What should we wear?
After booking, I will send you a style guide that will give you ideas on wardrobe options. While planning, I'm always just an email away from helping out and giving suggestions!
How do I book?
I’d love to work with you! Simply email me at kathy@kathylui.com (or use the contact form here on my website) and we can get the ball rolling. A 50% non-refundable retainer and a signed online agreement will secure your date.
When is payment due?
Your retainer is due at the time of booking. The remainder of your balance is to be paid in full at your session.
Do you offer payment plans?
I understand that professional photography, as important as it is, can be a big investment. To that end, I’m happy to offer payment plans which will break the total session fee down into multiple payments. Please reach out to me and we can work something out tailored to your needs.

Kathy is a wonderful wedding photographer! She's incredibly flexible and understanding of last minute changes. I loved how she captured people's emotions and was always there for the awesome moments. Whenever I needed her, she was there, very professional. The photos look amazing and the gallery was up in just a couple weeks! I'd definitely recommend Kathy for your big day. She really listens to what's important to you and makes sure you'll have an amazing day and great photos to remember it by :)

Kathy is an amazing photographer! When my husband and I were looking for our wedding photographer, we browsed through countless websites and nothing really grabbed our attention. We stumbled onto Kathy's website and immediately both of us said right away we want her to be our photographer! Her photos are simply gorgeous and draw out the natural beauty of people and the environment. Especially for someone like me who is unnatural and definitely un-photogenic in photos. I was pleasantly surprised that I looked natural and she captured me in such a way that I caught my self saying to myself: "Wow, I'm pretty!" As you can see, we love our wedding and engagement photos! She was able to capture such sweet moments that with one look at the photo brings back the memories and feelings of the day.
As for comments on the business end of things, Kathy is excellent to work with! She's very friendly and easy to talk with and explains and answers your questions thoroughly. She responds very fast to emails, and she uploaded our wedding and engagement photo galleries up much faster then we expected. The photo galleries are excellent, organized, and easy to use. She combined our wedding and engagement galleries together which makes things a lot easier! As for our photo sessions it wasn't awkward at all! She helped guide us into poses that felt natural to us and took her time. We will definitely be recommending Kathy to our friends, and we plan to ask her to join us again as our wedding photographer for our second wedding!

I have been fortunate enough to have Kathy document my beloved Airedale, Sunshade's senior years. Sunshade has since passed on, and as heartbreaking as it is for me, I am able to find comfort in the beautiful, vividly coloured photos that Kathy has taken of my girl. She was able to capture the very essence of Sunshade through her photography, and I will be forever grateful to have those pictures to hold close to my heart.
