A genuine interest in people sits at the center of everything I do, which is probably why I ended up becoming a photographer.
I'm naturally observant and have always found myself paying attention to the little things. Weddings happen to be a wonderful place for that. There is so much to notice.
Every family is different. Every group of friends has its own dynamic. Understanding the people at the center of a wedding is what keeps the work interesting to me.
I tend to work with couples who care deeply about the people around them. The type of couples who have friendships that have lasted for years and who genuinely look forward to having all of their favorite people in one place.
Outside of photography, I'm usually working on some sort of project. Most recently, that has meant knitting and sewing, though I'm always finding new things to learn.
“Working with Kate could not have been more amazing! She was the first vendor I ever spoke to regarding my wedding and still my favorite choice! From our first conversation she felt like a friend and someone who was genuinely excited and happy for me and my husband. She took time to understand my vision and made sure it aligned with her style. I have never hired a professional photographer before and throughout the whole process she made me feel so comfortable and confident the photos would be amazing and just what I wanted.
When the wedding day came, I was so excited to meet her and truly felt like she was a friend and was supposed to be a part of my day all along! Everyone loved her and still a year later, my family and friends still talk about how amazing, sweet, and talented she was.
When I received the gallery I was blown away!! Everything we talked about and I had on my vision board was right there! Truly the most stunning photos and everything we imagined. She captured genuine moments of my family, friends and me and my husband perfectly and beautifully. My bridal party pictures capture my morning with my girls in a way I can look back and feel like I’m there all over again on my wedding morning. The colors and essence of the day is in every picture.
Do not hesitate to book Kate, she truly was one of my favorite parts of my wedding day and made me feel so comfortable and worry free so I could enjoy the day and have my true emotions captured!”

“We first met Kate when she was the photographer for a friend’s wedding. Since my husband and I were both in the wedding party, we had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with her throughout the day and see her process firsthand. From the very beginning, I was impressed by how effortlessly she made everyone feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. She has a calming presence that puts people at ease, which truly shines through in her work.
When it came time to choose a photographer for our own wedding, Kate was the first person who came to mind. Not only does she create stunning digital and film photographs, but she is also one of the kindest and most genuine people you will meet. It’s clear that she cares deeply about the couples she works with and is fully invested in capturing their day in an authentic and meaningful way.
On our wedding day, Kate went above and beyond to make sure every special moment was documented while still allowing us to be fully present and enjoy the day. She navigated family dynamics with kindness and professionalism, turned a rainy forecast into part of the adventure, and adjusted effortlessly whenever plans needed to change. No matter what came up, she remained flexible and positive, making us feel completely at ease throughout the entire day. The photos she delivered are absolutely beautiful and perfectly reflect the emotions, joy, and love we felt. Looking through our gallery brings us right back to those moments.
We are incredibly grateful to have had Kate as our wedding photographer and cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who is not only exceptionally talented but also thoughtful, professional, and genuinely caring, Kate is the perfect choice."
