Hi, I'm Katie!


I’ve been taking photos of the people and things around me for as long as I can remember. If you knew me in high school or college, you probably remember me with my little gold Olympus 35mm camera or my chunky Canon digital camera in hand at all times—and I still have the boxes of 4x6 prints (and very embarrassing Facebook albums) to prove it.


These days, that love has turned into documenting families in a way that feels honest and lasting.


I really love making memories tangible—especially in the middle of the everyday, in whatever stage of life you’re in right now.


Whether you’re in those brand new, slightly blurry days of parenthood… chasing toddlers who have zero interest in sitting still… or holding onto the older kid years that somehow feel like they’re speeding up by the day—I know how much is changing, because I’m in it too.


It’s not lost on me what a big deal it is to be invited into someone’s life to document it this way, and I’m so genuinely grateful for every family that trusts me with their memories.


Outside of photography, you can usually find me:

  • at home with my three kids and my husband —usually in the middle of homeschooling, games, or surviving the chaos :)
  • at the library browsing for my next read
  • taking walks around my neighborhood (and enjoying the rare moment I get full control of the Spotify playlist)
  • rewatching The Office, Parks & Rec, or Seinfeld for the hundredth time
  • or dreaming about our next trip to Topsail Island for sea glass or a stroll through Charleston—my happy places


If you’re looking for photos that feel like your real life — not overly posed or overly perfect — I’d love to work with you.
