    YOU DON’T WANT COPY, PASTE POSES

    We’re here to capture something NEW

    Somewhere along the line, “candids” became fake laughter, directed moments, and uncomfy posing prompts – photographers recreating the same images with every couple. HARD PASS. Let’s do what comes naturally to you and amplify your love and the fun you’re already having. Most of the day will be captured through true, unstaged micro-moments. Then, during portraits, I will gently guide you and probably throw out silly and sentimental suggestions just to get your unique reaction. 

    Psst! If you’re down, we can even get artsy and experiment a little!

    CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN

    Me, you, and the camera

    Photography allows me this window into documenting the intimacy of your life. It’s sort of like a deep conversation via my camera. To create life-giving photos, I need to know you. And that takes some legwork.

    Count on me to learn what bands you love and incorporating them into your engagement shoot playlist. What inside jokes you two have, then pulling that joke out when you least expect it during your wedding day portraits. And what you value in this life, so every photo truly reflects what you want to remember most. What MATTERS most.

    AH, THE TRUTH IS…

    I’m choosing you, just as much as you’re choosing me

    Every photographer, when they first start out, has to book weddings just to put food on the table. I certainly did, but now, I’ve been photographing love stories for too long and love it too much to do any more of those “meal weddings”. This is how I choose to spend my life, so it’s time for more “reel weddings”. Ones that foster deep connections, push the limits of creativity, and are a blast to be a part of. Booking clients that will add to the highlight reel of my life. Just like your wedding will be added to yours.

    This makes working together all the more special, right!?

    KATE LITERALLY STOPPED TRAFFIC TO MAKE SURE WE GOT THE PERFECT SHOT.” – MEGGIE L

    True story! And I would do the same for you while excitedly yelling, “Yes, yes, yes, yes! Are you freaking kidding me!”

    Listen, we’re in this together—your vision is my vision! If you want to romantically document your daily walk to the corner coffee shop, we can do that. If you want to take in the city views from your secret rooftop spot, we can do that too. And if you want to explore the grounds of Hogwarts-esque estate, we can most definitely do that!

    Not only will I be getting the candid shot, I’ll be creating dreamy lighting, helping you with your dress, keeping you two in the moment, and making sure you know just how freaking good you look!!

OUR REAL LIFE MEET-CUTE

Picture this, It’s 2018, I’m the photographer at a wedding where Tony is a guest. We leave the reception at the same time and just so happen to be parked right next to one another. Three days later, we went out for coffee with no clue that we’d end up where we are now —  married, living in historic Ellicott City with a kitty named Magritte. Can you believe that!? There’s nothing like finding your person. And once you do, it’s inconceivable that they were ever a complete stranger to you. 

From day one, we have been about having a dang-good-time. Our lives are full of weddings, concerts, Harry Potter Movie marathons, tacos, and singing to Magritte.

Our wedding day!
Concerts! This is Kate seeing the National.
