portraits

Since having two babies of my own, I know first hand how fleeting time is and how babies just don’t keep. This season of life is busy but beautiful and my goal is to capture your family in a way that is organic and fun.  

From celebrating your growing family with extended family portraits, to yearly Christmas photos to share with loved ones, to soaking in those snuggles with a sweet new member of your family. I believe all moments and milestones are worth capturing and celebrating.

MY APPROACH

Let's get into it.

emotional  \  relaxed  \  heartfelt

Every session is about more than just smiling at the camera, it’s about freezing this season of your life exactly as it is.

The messy moments, the quiet in-betweens, the soft hand squeezes, the belly laughs, the way your littles look at you when they think no one’s watching.

My approach is gentle and go-with-the-flow, with a focus on creating space for connection. I’ll gently guide when needed, but mostly I’m there to document the magic already happening in front of me.

Still have some questions? Not sure what to wear or where to have your session? I can help! Let’s chat about what you are envisioning for your session and I can answer any questions you might have. 

- The Miller Family

 Having a family of her own, she made my husband, my kids, and I all feel so comfortable and excited for taking photos during our family session. Even with 2 young kids, Katherine was able to provide us with so many photos from our petite session. We’ve hung them up all over our house, such beautiful pictures that captured our family so well we couldn’t wait to show them off.

katherine is such a sweetheart!

- The Haggerty Family

 From our wedding to the birth of our first daughter, second daughter, and our girls growing. She is so talented and always puts us at ease! She is our go to for capturing our growing family over the years. We feel so grateful to have found such a warm, kind, and professional human to come back to year after year.

Katherine has been following us with her camera for all our big milestones in life

- The Haggerty Family

 I first discovered her at a wedding, and I instantly knew I wanted to use her for my own family photos. Since then, we have had Katherine capture our family for 3 different occasions...and we will definitely be using her for more in the future! She is such a caring and friendly photographer, and I would highly recommend her to anybody looking for high-quality family photos to use for holiday cards and (of course) decorations around the house! You won't be disappointed!

Katherine is absolutely amazing to work with!

TESTIMONIALS

do you offer more than one option for portrait sessions?

I do! I offer 3 different session options based off of my most requested services - A 30 minute ‘mini” session, a full 60 minute session, and a 90 minute in-home lifestyle session (great for newborns!).

You will receive your gallery of photos within two weeks of your session date!

how soon will we receive our photos?

what kind of sessions do you offer?

I offer extended family sessions, maternity, anniversary, senior, newborn, lifestyle/in-home, engagement, and newlywed. But I am open to any and every live event to capture!

This can be totally up to you and what you feel the best or most comfortable in! Light and neutral colors will never go out of style, but if you are needing a bit more help I have a few resources that I can share! I’m also always available to reach out to with any questions on outfit choices!

what should we wear for our session?
