Hey there! I’m Katie,

YOUR GO-TO WESTERN WEDDING AND FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

+ GUILTY PLEASURE

Cookies, Soda and thrift shopping! Cookies are my midnight snack and Soda is my mid morning sugar rush. I hardly buy anything new, because thrifting feels like a treasure hunt!

+ IT ALL STARTED AT A YOUNG AGE

I started my photography journey when I was 10 years old taking selfies before selfie was even a word. But, even before then, you could find me hiding behind my grandma’s couch looking at old photos for hours on end, one after the other.

+ BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW

I grew up on a horses back. My first injury was a broken leg at the age of 5 from falling off a horse. I got back on and kept going. I grew up doing every rodeo event I could, from roping and barrel racing to Rodeo Queening and Cutting, I also loved showing pigs, sheep, goats and horses in 4-h growing up. I even took a roping class in college so I would have an excuse to take my horse to college with me, even though I already knew how to rope.

+ THE BEST SUMMER OF MY LIFE

The summer before I got married, I traveled to San Juan Del Sur Nicaragua with a group of friends. It was the first time I had been out of the country and it was sooo different than what I was used to, but we surfed every day, rode buses and caught taxi’s, went spear fishing and so many things I never thought I would do, it was sooo much fun!

+ LIFE OUTSIDE OF PHOTOGRAPHY

I am basically obsessed with photography so I don’t have a ton of things outside of photography, but that’s because I am lucky enough to do what I love. I am however, a part time clinical research nurse, wife, and mother. I also love to garden, craft, and raise chickens, we even hatch them every spring!

+ FAVORITE ACTIVITY

Not having a favorite activity, I love variety and love trying new things. I am a perpetual learner, always trying something new, just to see if I would like it.

The ability to freeze a moment in time with a photograph is a gift that I don't take for granted. I've had the honor of telling stories with my camera for 10+ years, and I don't plan on stopping anytime soon. How amazing it is to savor the beautiful life God has given us by freezing a moment in time with a photo! 

Candid smiles, contagious belly laughs, the sweet embrace of your beloved, twirling in your favorite summer dress, tickle fights, enjoying a nice ride on your favorite horse, splashing in rain puddles, walking along the beach, and baking your favorite sweet treat with your best friend + many more are memories I love documenting. Take me on your next adventure and let's make some magic together! 

Let’s capture your moment
