If I could leave you with one feeling now and on your wedding day, it’s that you are enough. Your connection is special. I would love nothing more than to celebrate you. When you are in front of my lens, I want to see you both standing in your truth as the incredible beings you are.
One of a kind. Imperfect. Madly in Love.
Let’s preserve your truth & document your wedding day exactly as it unfolds
celebrate you. When you are in front of my lens, I want to see you both standing in your truth as the incredible beings you are.
One of a kind. Imperfect. Madly in Love.
If you share yourself with me, I will take care of the rest.
In a world constantly telling us to do more or be more, I want you to feel confident and present exactly as you are. I know that despite our best intentions, wedding planning often comes with a few uninvited expectations and unexpected hesitations. I want to hold space to help you let that go and remain beautifully, intimately, present on your wedding day.
All I need from you is to show up and be yourself.
CHECK ME OUT ON INSTAGRAM!
your wedding day is not a performance
Instead, I want to capture you and your love, exactly as you are. Your whole selves. The way only they can make you laugh. The goosebumps you feel as you exchange your vows. The humans that are the most important to you, that you chose to share your wedding day with. The toasts that make you cry, sneak glances at one another, and laugh until you ache.
The wedding photos I deliver are created for you and the people you share them with.
As your wedding photographer, I will show up on your wedding day with zero expectations. I won’t be thinking about trending poses, a “must have” shot list, or my Instagram portfolio.
Any professional wedding photographer will capture those big moments - like the first time you kiss or your first dance song - but I want your wedding gallery to be filled with photos that make you remember all of the in between. The moments that would be otherwise forgotten twenty years from now like your mom buttoning up your wedding dress or your maid of honour tearing up as you walk down the aisle.
I believe that it’s often the unexpected moments that are the most powerful. I want to preserve your legacy in a way that’s unique to you, in a way that truly matters.
Testimonials
katie & Cameron
Katie recently photographed an engagement session for us, as well as our small COVID wedding. We were absolutely thrilled with her services - she was incredibly personable, engaging during the shoots and planning, and prompt with messages and getting photos back to us. Katie overcame challenges like rain during our engagement session and blazing sun during the wedding and our photos still looked amazing. We were especially happy that our photos really captured us in a natural and candid way, rather than looking over-posed or awkward. We have no hesitation in recommending her to others, and we would definitely hire her again for other lifestyle sessions.

"We had couples photos done with Katie. We had such a wonderful experience! Katie really put us at ease during the photo session. She helped us feel natural and we had a lot of fun! She was really quick with getting the photos back to us. Most importantly the photos were absolutely beautiful – so many favourites to pick from! I highly recommend Katie and I will definitely be doing photos with her again in the future!"

"Katie is an amazing photographer we had a lot of fun, and she captured us perfectly!"
MELISSA
"Katie was fantastic to work with! She did photos of my sixth month old, as well as with my mom, who was visiting. I really appreciated that she was flexible and patient through the process (as is often necessary with a baby,) but also very focused and committed to ensuring we had some great shots. She was open to the ideas I had, but also offered great suggestions for poses, etc. The photos we got were beautiful! I am already looking forward to our next session with the kids."

"Katie is what you want in a photographer. Her bubbly personality sets you at ease and allows you to be comfortable in front of the camera. She has such a talented eye, able to catch the most candid and intimate moments making the picture so naturally beautiful and special. Katie is incredibly patient and open to all ideas. Very professional and efficient, my fiancé and I were able to see a handful of Katie’s artistically edited photos within hours of taking them and provided us with digital access to all the photos within days. Very please my experience with Katie. Not only was the service excellent, the prices were very reasonable. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thanks Katie!!"
Testimonials
Kristen & Manuel
Katie was a dream to work with, not only as a bride and groom prepping for their big day, but as a bride and groom getting married during a pandemic. To start, Katie was super responsive and helpful when booking. We loved sitting down with her and talking about our vision and what she could offer us. She continued to be great at communicating with us as we navigated how our wedding had to change/evolve over the past few months due to COVID. My family was singing her praises after the wedding as she made it so easy and comfortable for all of us. And of course, the engagement pictures and the sneak peaks of the wedding have blown us away. Literally no regrets with booking katie! We are so pleased. Highly recommend!
