Thanks Antwon!
Karl did an incredible job capturing my son's first birthday party! He nailed every detail and was so committed to our theme of airplanes (time flies)! The pictures and moments we have are ones we will cherish and find ourselves coming back to again and again. DO NOT HESITATE - BOOK KARL!! :)

Thanks so much, Nicole!
Karl really captured the moments!
The photographer was very thorough and took pictures for our non traditional last minute wedding, my friends and family loved him although I didn’t get my pictures yet i know I’ll be great
Karl was an absolute pleasure to work with and his photographs are incredible. We are so happy with the photos from our son’s baptism that we wish we knew Karl sooner so he could have photographed our wedding. He captured all the special moments and gave us photos that we adore. He was also extremely professional and courteous. He took the time to learn about our ceremony and tailored everything to us. I highly recommend Karl and would hire him again without a doubt!

Thanks so much Alexis!
From start to finish and everything in between Karl was amazing. He messaged me beforehand asking for every little detail in order for him to have a better understanding of the party and for him to put a plan of action in to take the best photographs. We were blown away by the photos that were taken when we received them. He captured everything better than we could have asked him to. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

Thanks so much Michaela!
We hired a photographer for our party b/c I didn't want guests to feel burdened by needing to capture moments. Karl took that and ran with it. He was but one man, but somehow captured it all! Truly excellent and was very inconspicuous amongst the guests! Quick turnaround with the photos after the party was over as well. A+ would absolutely work with again.

Thanks Debby!
Professional man, simply amazing.
Karl was excellent, he was at the church before us and was really great. He was patient with us and our family, thorough and did more than we expected. I highly recommended using him for your photography needs. Excellent service all around, thank you Karl!

Thanks Chris!
I reached out to Karl in an emergency situation 3 weeks before our wedding date because our last photographers double booked us and we ended up cancelling with them. Karl had no trouble at all with doing a short-notice job and the photos came out amazing!
On our wedding day he even arrived a little early to do photos of the venue details which was great. He took plenty of candid photos and posed ones — just as requested. My husband and I are so happy with the results. The turn around time for edits was faster than I have ever heard of a photographer being able to do.
Karl was very detailed and took care to get the right lighting and everyone we wanted in each shot. Great at directing us as well, especially those of our guests who aren’t used to getting portraits done or might be camera shy. I especially appreciate that the bridesmaids were just as comfortable with him while getting ready as the groomsmen were.
He shared some photos on his Instagram of our wedding for anyone wanting to see some of the pictures taken.
We can’t recommend him enough!

Thanks Emma! Your wedding at Westerly’s enchanting Margin Street Inn had so many imaginative touches, just like the two of you! Emma, the rosette gown you created yourself was completely worth it, judging by the admiring eyes at your dress reveal and ceremony. Ben and the guys had great energy and were fun to be around. May you two always be as full of joy and love as you were during your newlywed getaway!
Peace,
Karl
This was our first time working with Karl and he did a fantastic job! We have a Kitchen Views showroom at Oxford Lumber in Oxford, CT and needed to find a photographer in that area to take pictures of a kitchen and the designer for use in our marketing programs. Karl made our kitchen designer feel comfortable and had her interacting with flowers and fruit he brought with him for the occasion. He also took some beautifully posed photos of her in the kitchen she designed. She looks very natural and happy. Karl did a beautiful job staging the room with the items he brought and made great use of items the homeowner had. We are planning another photo shoot soon for another of our kitchen designers. I'm very happy that we found Karl through GigSalad and highly recommend him.
Response from Karl Moore | Photo:
Deborah, you put your heart into your profession in a way that's inspirational! You're not only a treasure trove of knowledge, but a caring and sharing person. I'm excited to collaborate with you in showcasing the talents of another Kitchen Views designer in her client’s dream kitchen.
Our family/friends truly saw the value of the service Karl provided. He made everyone fell comfortable. He was punctual, communicative, professional and the photos were great quality. We would definitely rehire him for future events. He captured every beautiful moment of our day and turned our photos into masterpieces. Thank you Karl.

Thanks so much, Yendy!
Karl was responsive from the beginning to the end. He was on time and prepared. He was fantastic to work with. He was easygoing with Prom Teens and was creative. I will definitely use him again!!!!!!
Response from Karl Moore | Photo:
Everyone rocked their prom pictures! The teens amazing outfits and personalities shone through, both as individuals and as a group. Thanks Maritza, for arranging the teen prom session and scouting out the scenic riverside backdrop. I know the prom was a night to remember, and I’d be thrilled to capture the high schoolers’ next milestone moment.
Peace,
Karl
We had a surprise 70th Disco Themed Party for my father and hired Karl. From the moment of my inquiry Karl did an amazing job! The communication was superb and his attention to detail regarding our party and venue was incredibly impressive. He genuinely seemed interested in making the experience for us a great time, it seemed like more than a "gig". He was early to arrive at the venue and was all ready to go by the time he was supposed to start. Throughout the event it was clear that he was making a very large effort at all times to take a variety of pictures and afterwards the turnaround time on receiving the pictures was very fast. The only issue I have is that I did not know about Karl when I get married!
Karl is one of a kind. Punctual and prompt to arrive and was able to produce wonderful photos with very little direction from us. All of our guests loved Karl and the photos are amazing! The photos were delivered well within the time frame articulated. Fiancé cannot stop looking at the photos of family and friends… they are that wonderful.
We would 100% recommend Karl to all of our friends and family.
Karl did an amazing job capturing our wedding! You can tell he really loves what he does. He was super attentive from the very beginning with responding to emails to the end when asking for special requests with videos and photos and everything in between. He had all our photos and videos done in less than two weeks and his editing skills are impressive. He listened to our requests and had a great eye for places to take photos and helped with posing. The photos he took were gorgeous! He captured really sweet moments and was quick to capture hilarious shots that we will cherish forever. All of our guests were super impressed with how he operated throughout the wedding. We had multiple people ask where we found him and everyone who talked to him loved his personality. I will always recommend Karl to anyone who needs a professional photographer. Thank you Karl!
Karl was great.
He was very helpful with suggestions on positioning, arranging groups, etc for our wedding on the beach.
Easy to work with, very professional. He communicated well. On time.
Highly recommended.
Just book him while you can.
We hired Karl for our son's first birthday party and he did a fantastic job capturing the entire party from start to finish. He took pictures of everything - details, family photo sessions, candids, the works! He was extremely responsive leading up to the event, and was on time and ready to go when he arrived. Very professional and a joy to work with -- I would highly recommend him. Thank you, Karl - these pictures mean the world to us!
Karl was so kind and personable, he felt like another guest at our event! He was so helpful with gathering everyone that was needed for portraits, finding nice places to take the pictures, helping us pose, and capturing important moments.
He was easy to communicate with as well prior to the event. He touched base with me multiple times to see what I was looking for and to ensure that we were on the same page!
If you were looking for a photographer for your big event do not hesitate to book Karl he was amazing!
If we ever need a photographer in the future I will definitely be contacting him first!
Karl did a wonderful job photographing my husband's birthday party! He really captured the spirit of the evening! Karl arrived early and stayed late to photograph the party from beginning to end. He took advantage of the gorgeous Hampton's light! The pictures just glow! I would highly recommend him.
Id use Karl every time!!!

Thanks so much, Serene!
Seriously, Karl was an unbelievable wedding photographer. He showed up early to our event, patiently waited while we were behind, got every single shot we were looking for plus hundreds more. Karl is cool, collected, goes with the flow, and took over 2000 PHOTOS over the course of our evening, and had them mastered and uploaded within 4 days after our wedding. Absolute professional, absolute legend. Thank you so much Karl for being our photographer!!

Wow, this is the best review I've ever gotten! Thanks so much, Jacob!
Karl was wonderful to work with. Very well prepared, asked questions to our individual needs for the event, and his photographs were stellar. We will be working with him again.
Karl was flexible and kind in accommodating my family’s last minute need for a photographer for a birthday event for my husband. He has a gentle presence and he captured many great moments from our occasion. He was so easy to work with!
Karl was simply amazing. We had a grumpy baby, and he still took every photo he could of the princess. He worked really hard! He was very pleasant and took pictures of EVERYTHING and everyone. He even did impromptu photoshoots! He will definitely be our go to for any future events. We are very grateful.
I first off I’d like to say that Karl was so professional from the time he came to the time he left. He was the first one to get to the wedding facility and the last person to leave of our vendors. He did an amazing job capturing the entire event and it amazes upon receiving the final photos how he could be in so many different areas at the same time. His professionalism made it a pleasure to deal with him and our guests were all delighted by his ability to direct them and also to capture amazing moments. Everyone at our event was impressed with him and upon reviewing the final photos we see why. He is truly an amazing photographer and has a true talent he was very kind and courteous the entire time. We just thank God that we were able to book someone so great and have our special day the memorialized with such Amazing photography we will definitely be hiring Carl again and we would absolutely suggest that anyone even thinking of hiring him do it immediately he’s amazing. I am very picky when it comes to booking vendors and for this event I was very particular in making my selection as it was our weddingBut anyone who is on the fence I can tell you from personal experience he’s an amazing choice you will not regret it. Thank you so much again Karl We will definitely be seeing you soon God bless

Bob, your wedding was like stepping into a fairytale. Your vows inside the filigree rotunda tugged at everyone’s heart. The Rome-inspired fountains and waterfall spoke to your romance. The Venetian hour was a sweet finale for an incredible couple. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your awesome review. It will bring me joy to see you again over the holidays!
Karl has taken photos of our home for display on the web; family reunion photos; and individual portraits, He has captured photos of a family member and her dogs. I don't know how he did it, but he had the dogs posing as though they had done it all their lives.
He is imaginative, thoughtful and patient. I especially like his candid shots with us such as playing golf and portraits during golden hour.
He displays professionalism at all times and is never intrusive when taking photos at an event.
You indeed will be lucky, and grateful, if you hire Karl for your special photos.

Thanks Gerri!
Karl stepped out his comfort zone with the photoshoot for my luggage line and he did an amazing job. He provided my edits that same week. It was a pleasure working with him!
Response from Karl Moore | Photo:
Thanks Keya! I hope your business takes off!
I definitely recommend Karl for any photography needs! His comprehensiveness in taking pictures was stellar.
He was on time, very thorough, professional, and provided an excellent quality for the price. Our wedding party was on the larger side and Karl was very patient with everyone and provided excellent instructions to get the desired poses. Karl was also very flexible with us, the wedding date was mostly rainy and we had to change our location to take pictures after the ceremony without a hitch which was great.
Response from Karl Moore | Photo:
You are kind as well as one-of-a-kind, Maritza! Your coordinating work in the bride and groom’s behalf inspired an overflowing of love. The groomsmen posed in perfect harmony – no small feat since there were ten of them! And the bride and groom simply enjoyed the most wonderful day of their lives! Thanks for the great review, please give my love to all!
Hard working and a joy to work with!

It’s always a pleasure to work with such a talented event planner, Chrissa! Your decor and photo booth creations are always a big hit with guests, and with me too! Thanks for the review!
Karl was extremely punctual, responsive and quick. He was very accommodating a friendly throughout the whole process during our engagement shoot, especially since we are a couple who don’t take many pictures. Would definitely recommend Karl for anyone hoping to get quality photos on a budget! We have a few great shots we can’t wait to hang in our new home.

Your seashore engagement portraits will give the walls of your new home a romantic splash, Meagan! May you enjoy wonderful walks along the beach all of your married lives. Thanks for the kind words!
Karl has been doing a great job for us. He has been very flexible working with us at our event. I would highly recommend Karl.

Your “Miracle on Ice” theme scored a big hit, Mike! As attendees enjoyed Olympian activities and discovered new products, it was fun “going for the gold” with my camera.
I had booked Karl to take pictures for my proposal and I could not have been more impressed with Karl's work! As soon as I booked, Karl was so accommodating and thoughtful! He went above and beyond to help me plan details of the proposal and he prepared many ideas of the photos to take ahead of time. Karl was not only a great photographer but also an amazing person. He was very friendly and stayed well beyond the time I had booked him for to take additional pictures of myself and my family. His package was extremely reasonable and he provided all of the photos he had taken from the event and touched up many of the best ones. I would be beyond thrilled to book Karl again in the future!

You engineered the perfect vineyard engagement! The winery balcony and serenading musician set a romantic mood for a dramatic, "yes!" The surprise party after bubbled with love as you and your fiancée shared toasts, hugs and that dazzling ring! I can’t wait to share the next chapter in your love story!
I hired Karl to work with me planning a surprise proposal for my girlfriend. Karl was very professional when answering questions and even offered great suggestions on how to make the proposal even better. He showed up a day early to scope out the location and make sure he could get the best photos. In the end, the photos turned out amazing and surpassed all expectations. I would highly recommend hiring Karl for your event.

Your flower-decorated gazebo and serenading guitarist created an irresistible scenario for your surprise proposal, Sam! Your plan was so thoughtfully designed, and it was exciting to see it unfold with such tender emotions! Best wishes to a beautiful couple!

A SNAPSHOT OF MY LIFE AS A PHOTOGRAPHER
“You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” Ansel Adams
My Mission: To Capture Your Unforgettable Memories In The Best Light
In my view, nothing compares to photographing once in a lifetime memories. As film-maker John Hughes wrote "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it!"
My ideology is that we should always strive for beauty, and respect the environment, animals, and each other as much as ourselves.
With Seven Years Experience, I’m Ready to Photograph Anything You Envision!
At age 8, a Kodak Cameo was my first camera, which I used to photograph my friends and my incredible pet hamster. In high school, I took a photo with a video camera and won the "colorful tree contest" photography award. Looking back, I guess that was a sign, I'd become a photographer later in life. Even to this day, I emulate the nostalgic look of film, with my Nikon 35mm digital camera.
My career officially began after college, when I landed a job as a weekend nightclub photographer. This led to my first wedding; the experience won over my heart, and I’ve captured many weddings and engagements since, from intimate, to grand, beach to banquet hall.
· Every spring, I photograph grads during their proudest moment. My portraits have appeared in yearbooks from Yale to Northeastern, and on the social media of young sports stars and dancers.
· I’m there to cheer clients on in every stage and role in life! Birthdays from ages one to to seventy-five. Family portraits for every holiday and season. Team building at golf courses and concert halls; new product sendoffs in private jets. Surprise proposals at seashores and wineries. Weddings everywhere. What adventure awaits me next? Hopefully, yours!!
Education is a Lifelong Journey To Perfect My Craft for You!
· Bachelor’s of Science In Media Communications. State University of New York.
· Do you think photography is just about picture making? So did I! I’ve been surprised to discover a photographer’s roles are many, and grateful for those foundational courses in liberal arts
· Photo workshops: For the past year, I’ve done Zoom meetings with photographers around the world for weekly critiques of products and portraits by lighting virtuoso, Don Giannatti.
· Member, PPA (Professional Photographers America). Liability Insurance, too!
My Approach: Your candid moments, timeless portraits, and unique surroundings are all artfully illuminated and interwoven to tell your unforgettable story.
By day, I seek out natural light to create a bright and airy, and sometimes ethereal look at golden hour. If it's cloudy or at night, I'll usually use Profoto flash for a more commercial feeling, glamour or party look. At all hours, I strive to be an oasis of calm amidst your whirlwind; to be responsive to your wishes; to inspire smiles in the eyes and heart. In the words of a client who made my day... “We had such a wonderful time capturing these moments with you, Karl Moore! Thank you for your creativity and expertise. I especially admire your patience, humility and passion for your work. I can’t wait to share these with friends and family.” - Kerri
