you will not remember every detail
but you will remember how it felt


I am drawn to what is real
the way people move toward each other
the quiet in between everything else

this is how I remember things
and how they stay with you

I want my work to feel the way memories do.
A little imperfect, deeply felt, full of movement, light, and the people you love most.

My approach is documentary at heart.

celebrate,
      always.

"We absolutely loved having Katherine capture our favorite day. From the very beginning, she was genuinely excited for us and made us feel completely at ease, which made the entire experience feel so natural and fun. Her eye for those timeless, effortless moments is truly special, and I’m constantly amazed by the way she sees and documents the little details that end up meaning so much. I’m in love with her film work and overall aesthetic—everything she delivered feels warm, intentional, and beautifully us. We’re so grateful she was the one to capture our experience and preserve these memories in such an authentic way."

"Kat was the absolute best. We received our photos and I could not be happier! She was so great to work with and got all of the photos that I wanted. Every single person who looked at the photos just smiled from ear to ear. She captured everything and absolutely saw my vision for how I wanted my photos. She is absolutely worth every penny and the sweetest human ever!"

"Every single person who looked at the photos just smiled from ear to ear.

"After an exhaustive search for a very specific photography style we found Kat and cannot imagine how the day would have gone without her, or how we’d remember it without the incredible photos we received. The photos we got were stunning and really reflect each moment in a special, unique way. The natural emotion of the day really pours through every frame. Choosing someone to document your most important moments is a big decision and we would recommend anyone considering a photographer to choose Kat if you want quality work that you can cherish for a lifetime."

"cannot imagine how the day would have gone without her,"
