I had the most amazing shoot experience with Kara. She photographed me at 32 weeks pregnant and made me feel so comfortable, it was a dream. I had so much fun & have incredible photographs and memories that I’ll treasure forever. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough x x

Kara did an incredible job for my partner and I. We met prior and planned out the whole thing too, as I wanted to surprise my partner. Kara was very creative with the shots, flexible and contactable at all times during the weeks' lead up. She uploaded the photos promptly and was extremely professional. Recommend her to anyone!

Kara is an incredible photographer and I couldn’t imagine our wedding being photographed to a more beautiful and higher standard!Kara captured the essence of our special day in the most natural, raw and immaculate detail we could have ever hoped for.Aside from the high standard of photography, Kara’s professional, friendly and delightful nature made us feel exceptionally comfortable and we were free to be ourselves throughout the entire day.I couldn’t recommend The Runaway Hearts more and recommend her to everyone I know getting married. 100/10.

Kara is INCREDIBLE. From the first time we spoke I just felt so at ease, she has such a great calming energy which is what every stressed bride needs in their life.On the day, she was amazing. Above and beyond. She was like a ninja, she got so many shots from so many angles, we still don’t know how she did it. She genuinely enjoys her work and just had the best happiest vibe which made our day even better.The results are so beautiful, I absolutely love the look of film photography and she has such a great style. She is a true professional. She wasn’t pushy, she just let the moments happen and had the best sense of when to capture them at the perfect time.She sent our photos through literally DAYS after our wedding. We couldn’t believe how fast she finished them.I can’t thank you enough Kara, you’ve given us the most beautiful photos and video of our amazing day that we will cherish forever. You’re the best and we love you.Trust me, she’s the photographer you want.XXXXXXXXXXXX

Kara perfectly captured our engagement shoot. The location was stunning and Kara's direction and ability to capture it all so candidly was faultless. Also, the images were returned super quick! I would recommend Kara in a heartbeat for timeless pictures that you'll treasure forever.

Kara is the most lovely and sweetest soul. She is absolute joy to be around, and such a talented photographer. Kara made me feel comfortable throughout my entire portrait session. When I received my photographs I was couldn't have been more pleased. They are some of my favourite photograph's I've ever had taken of me, and I can't wait to share them with the world. Thank you again Kara, for the best day and all of the memories!

Kara was an absolute DREAM to work with.She captured our wedding and made the whole process so relaxed and stress free. We were able to enjoy the photos being taken and felt like we were just hanging out with a friend.Kara ensure everything we wanted capture was and was so patient and kind.Our only regret from the wedding day is not booking her for longer so we could just spent more time with her!

Kara's film photos have the most magical quality, so we asked her to shoot our entire wedding on film. No easy feat, but WOW she exceeded all our expectations!!! The photos are so incredibly beautiful and capture the vibe of our day beyond perfectly. She was an absolute delight to work with from start to finish and brought such a positive chill energy. I couldn't believe how quickly she delivered our pics as well! If you're looking to have your day captured in a timeless, vibrant and unique way, you MUST get Kara to shoot your wedding on film!
