Meet Katie

Behind the Camera

This is more than photography to me.

Whether you're whispering vows on a mountaintop or dancing barefoot at sunset with your kids in the backyard, I’m here to preserve the heartbeat of your moments. The quiet ones. The wild ones. The ones that feel like everything and nothing all at once. Until we realize they’re everything.

One day, this will all be a memory. And I want yours to feel alive.

My soul craves connection with the nontraditional, the queer community, the free spirits, and adventure seekers of the world. Humans are intricate and messy, and I strive to capture every piece of your story with relentless passion.

I’m Katie, and I believe in photos that feel like home. Real, emotional, and full of life. I’m not here to chase trends. I’m here to give you something timeless. Images that become heirlooms. Photographs that bring you back to the way it felt. That remind you who you are, who you love, and how wildly beautiful this life really is.

Based out of Dayton, Ohio and Estes Park, Colorado. Offering International travel.

Love notes

  • Anna + Rob - Michigan

    “When we hired Katie to be our wedding photographer we had a high expectation for her work. Her portfolio was stunning and everything that she does for you is an experience so when our wedding day came, I was excited to see what vision she brought to our wedding memories. She is SO MUCH FUN to be around and our entire family talked about her at our wedding and after. My Dad says she’s invited to Thanksgiving dinner now. We hired her for the full day and she was a blast at the reception too. I was not prepared to see just how emotional and impactful the entire experience would be but she brought us our greatest memories to life and we now get to see them and re-live them forever through her photos and videos. Katie is our photographer for life now and I can’t begin to put into words just how incredible every part of this experience was. FIVE STARS ALL DAY LONG.”

  • Cat + Joel - Dayton Ohio

    Katie is everything a photographer could be. She has an amazing eye and brings all her visions to life. Not only is her skill amazing, but her vibe and personality is an added treat! She is great to be around and fills you with confidence and joy."

    “Having worked with Katie at clients births and as a personal photographer for my family, I can honestly say-- Katie is a literal ray of warm sunshine and her photos reflect her light. She has a lovely presence and consistently presents stunning quality photos and videos. Im very thankful to have met this lovely professional and highly recommend her to clients and friends.!”

  • Ashley - Troy Ohio

    Katie is AMAZING!! We hired Katie to be our photographer after seeing some recommendations in a birth group we were in. I had never met her but her photos were gorgeous and she was super quick to respond. Let me tell you.. not only was she an amazing photographer, she doubled as an encourager and a friend. She was ready and willing to help in any way she could at any time. The photos were absolutely stunning and I am so thankful we got these! Her work is phenomenal. She asked what I wanted and what I didn’t want and she captured it ALL perfectly.

 Would we be a good fit???

Hell Yes

  • You value the vision and unique storytelling experience a photographer and videographer brings to your memories.

  • You want to break the rules and create something memorable.

  • You don’t fit in with the traditional crowd and want something more.

  • You want to work with an inclusive, empowering creative who knows how important it is to foster a safe and welcoming space for all people and journeys.

Hell No

  • You want heavily photoshopped, unnatural photo retouching. I believe all bodies are worth of documenting in the most flattering and beautiful of ways. That doesn’t require changing you.

  • You don’t support inclusion + diversity of ALL.

  • You don’t value the unique vision a creative brings to these services.

  • You want a traditional, discounted service rather than an experience.

Let’s go!
