you deserve photos that tell your story
let’s craft your perfect wedding experience together
I want you to enjoy your day to the fullest. Zero regrets.
It doesn’t matter what a relative thinks, what traditions you want to include, or what you want to skip altogether, your vision is most important. I want to help you set intentions for your day and stick to them. You and your future spouse deserve a day that is unapologetically you. Your wedding day shouldn’t feel like a checklist to get through. You are living the day that signifies the start of your marriage to your favorite person, so let’s make sure you actually enjoy it!
After five years of photographing weddings and elopements, I can tell you that planning a day that actually represents you and your partner is how you end up celebrating a genuine and fun day.
I want your images to evoke the emotions of your wedding day every time you look back through them. A timeless, sophisticated, true-to-life edit means they will never go out of style, and a mix of details, real moments, storytelling, and gentle posing that fits your vibe will showcase your relationship. I want to artfully and authentically tell your love story, and give you a wedding album that guarantees there will always be a story to tell.
with so many options,
what sets me apart?
packages tailored to you
Although I have a standard set of coverage collections, which include an engagement session, I can fully customize your package. Not all couples fit in the classic eight hours, two photographers option. I believe destination weddings, wedding weekends, welcome party coverage, separate bridals, editorial studio sessions, and honeymoon sessions all require a personalized approach, tailored to suit your unique needs.
documenting & directing
Your wedding is not just about how it looked, it’s about how it felt. I blend a documentary and editorial approach to capture details, candids, love and connection, and the beauty of your venue to craft a storytelling gallery. Catching unplanned moments and real emotion requires anticipation and attention. And my experience and direction help create natural portraits that take your breath away.
more than a photographer
I sincerely love what I get to do. It’s more than just being your photographer, it’s about creating one hell of a day that brings a smile to your faces for the rest of your lives. From advice giver, to dress fluffer, to someone to shed tears with while you read your vows, I am a part of all it, celebrating right beside you. Your day truly matters to me, as does the relationship we establish in the process. It’s not just another wedding.
gallery & heirloom album
Your gallery, edited meticulously and cohesively, and all its contents, are fully yours and shareable with whomever you choose. Prints are able to be conveniently ordered, and I also offer fully personalized heirloom albums. I believe holding your photos in your hands is an incredible way to relive your wedding. One day you might be passing your album down, so let’s make sure these memories last for generations.
planning a destination wedding or wedding weekend?
Are you having your wedding somewhere meaningful or wanting to celebrate for multiple days? I offer personalized packages for wedding weekends and destination wedding photography to make sure you’re getting the coverage you need for your specific event. I absolutely love to travel, and my experience shooting in all sorts of locations gives me the ability to capture the unique beauty of your destination.
There’s no need to have your photography limited to one day, let’s capture your welcome party, rehearsal, daytime festivities, wedding, and a day after shoot! Spending the weekend together allows me to get to know you better, along with your loved ones, and catch so many more special moments that can’t typically happen during the wedding day timeline.
“Katie is absolutely phenomenal!
From the moment we hired her for our wedding at Bridger Bowl, she exceeded all expectations. Katie not only captured breathtaking photos but also took the initiative to keep things running smoothly, even beyond her responsibilities. Her professionalism is unmatched, and she went the extra mile by not only photographing planned moments but also taking candid and impromptu shots that beautifully encapsulated the day.
Before the wedding, Katie met us at the venue, scouting the area for ideal settings and backdrops. Her kindness and thoughtfulness truly set her apart—she even offered a second session to make up for unforeseen circumstances on our wedding day. The quality of her photos is incredible, capturing every special moment perfectly.
Katie’s client website/portal was a breeze to navigate, whether for signing documents, communication, or reviewing photos. Working with Katie was a spectacular experience—I not only recommend her as a professional photographer, but I insist that she is the only way to go! Thank you, Katie, for making our wedding memories so extraordinary!”

the process
inquiry & booking
After inquiring through the contact form, or at the bottom of this page, you will receive my package and pricing guide! You can look through galleries, chat on the phone with me, and ask any questions you may have. If you are ready to book, I send over a contract and payment plan electronically!
planning & engagement session
If you want to utilize the complementary engagement session, we plan and photograph that! Throughout the process of planning your wedding, we can create a timeline together, find other vendors, and go over any questions or concerns. I provide a questionnaire as we near your wedding day that will gather all the details in one place – like locations, family photo lists, and more! If you want to opt out of the engagement session, we can put that toward additional wedding day time or covering your welcome party/rehearsal dinner if it’s local!
wedding day
The big day is here! I am there every step of the way to ensure it all goes smoothly. The lifelong memories of your day will be beautifully captured and showcase the relationship you and your partner have built. I send sneak peeks your way the next day, so you can immediately relive those moments throughout your wedding day and share with friends and family!
gallery delivery and HEIRLOOM albums
I pride myself on fast delivery time for your full wedding gallery. I guarantee your gallery within 8 weeks but typically have it completed in about a month! Everything in your gallery is yours to download, share with loved loved ones, and conveniently order prints. I also offer printed heirloom albums, which are an amazing way to experience your photos and completely customizable.
“We absolutely recommend Katie!
Such a cool person and a phenomenal photographer. Very personable, and was able to stick to the schedule without making us feel overwhelmed and rushed. She did an amazing job of capturing the unique personalities and emotions of us and our loved ones. We have hundreds of timeless photos allowing us to relive the magic of our special day for years to come!”
