Katie was prompt, professional and a joy to work with! Highly recommend!”

“Katie is a Photographer that is professional and warm all at once. She is incredible at enhancing the personality of her client or model by just encouraging them to be who and what they are. Being in front of her camera lets me know I'm going to be taken care of and taken seriously all at once.”

“You know you found your photographer when your eyes well up with tears at the pure beauty of your photos. Katie did a family session for my husband, fur baby, and me. She made the phot session comfortable, easy, and relaxed. We felt like we were just hanging out with a friend! Katie is all around the best photographer we have ever worked with. She's easy to talk to, fun to be around, and has the best eye for details. We love Katie and would recommend her a million times over!”

“Katie was a pleasure to work with due to her kind, genuine, and calm demeanor. She made photos a breeze on my weeding day. My photos turned out absolutely beautiful due to Katie's great eye for lighting and posing. 100% recommend her services!”

—Morgan & Austin

“We had such a great experience working with Katie for our wedding photography! Our initial meeting was really informative and she thought to ask us questions and touch on certain details that we hadn't considered ourselves. We had a few check-in conversations along the way, and staying in touch over the course of wedding planning really helped ease some of the anxiety I had. Katie really understood the style of photography we were looking for, and she captured our wedding day beautifully!”

Need a Second Shooter? I do that too!


Working with Katie as a second shooter is honestly one of my secret weapons for any wedding day. Everytime she works alongside me at a wedding I just know it’s going to be a good day. Not only does she have the skill, talent and eye for the photos but her personality is second to none. 


I have worked with my fair share of other photographers who are great photographers but not the best at vibing with all types of people. To be a great photographer AND a great people person doesn’t always come in a package deal but with Katie I know I’m getting the best of both worlds. Katie works so well with coordinating groups, rounding up kiddos and shooting with animals of any kind. I can’t express how invaluable Katie is and I would highly recommend her for any second photographer needs! 


-Carrie, Caroline Rose Photography

As a fellow wedding photographer, I understand the importance of having a reliable second shooter who not only complements your style but also enhances the overall photography experience for the couple. Katie, as my second shooter, exceeded all 

expectations and played an integral role in capturing the couples special day. From the initial coordination to the final delivery of the images, Katie demonstrated professionalism, creativity, and a keen eye for detail. She seamlessly integrated into our team, understanding our shooting style and effectively communicating with us throughout the day.

During the wedding day itself, Katie's presence was invaluable. She effortlessly captured candid moments, intricate details, and alternate angles, providing a comprehensive perspective of the event. Her ability to anticipate moments ensured that no precious memory was missed, allowing us to focus on delivering an exceptional photography experience to our clients.
