As a former bride myself, I’ve come to understand the importance of documenting weddings in a way that highlights the natural moments that unfold as well as the formalities of traditional wedding photography. Your first hug with grandma, the tears your parents shed during the speeches, and the laughs that happen with your bridal party will all fill your final gallery with images that truly reflect the emotions felt on your unique wedding day. As a former dancer of fourteen years, I also have a deep understanding of movement and what is flattering- which allows me to direct and capture very natural looking images that radiate your love and personality.
My goal with every couple I work with is to get to know you and to provide an experience that makes you feel as special as you truly are! I have an open line of communication with my couples throughout the process, willing to share tips I've learned from being in the industry and providing a custom planning guide received in the mail after your date is reserved. To make the photography the least stressful part of your wedding day, I also work with my clients to create a photography timeline and family portrait shot list prior the wedding to ensure a seamless flow. By the time the wedding day arrives, we will have established a bond that allows for capturing natural looking, refined images you will cherish. Our experience together will end with a big goodbye hug and a lifelong friendship!

"Where do I start? From her warm smile, to her sweet personality, and her willingness to work with you and your ideas... she was so easy to talk to and was very helpful in planning how much time we would need but still not feel rush. Kathryn took all my ideas and turned them into works of art... When Tyler and I got our pictures from our wedding/engagement session we were BLOWN AWAY!.. We seriously can’t say enough great things about her! So if you are looking for a sweet, lovely, easy to work with, and a person that makes you feel at ease when taking pictures Kathryn is the one!"
