Meet Katie!

Hi there! Here's a little bit about me...


  1. If a good song comes on, there's a 100% chance I'm singing along. I've had countless full blown concerts in my car.
  2. I can't keep plants alive to save my life. I've even killed a few cacti in my day. Who knew over-watering was a thing??
  3. I've never met a pepperoni pizza I didn't like.
  4. Anything salted caramel is my jam!
  5. One of my hidden talents is the ability to do word searches freakishly fast. My husband challenged me once and learned his lesson.
  6. By nature I'm an extrovert and love being around people. But I'm also a huge fan of snuggling on the couch with my hubby and watching crime dramas.
  7. If I could only bring 3 things with me to a deserted island, I would take a charcuterie board, music and my Bible.
  8. F*R*I*E*N*D*S is my favorite! I've watched the entire series from beginning to end several times. It just never gets old! Could I BE a bigger fan??
  9. My daughters are only 11 months apart. Having Irish Twins is quite the experience!
  10. I'm a veteran married to a veteran. We are huge supporters of military, law enforcement and first responders and we appreciate their service!

“I heard amazing things about Katie and she was truly that! Not only did my husband and I connect with her, but my boys bonded with her as well, which made it much easier for our picture taking. The boys kept asking her questions, giving her directions on how to take their pictures and Katie not being bothered once, happily obliged and captured amazing photos! We already have another session booked with her and look forward to many more. I will forever cherish our beautiful family photos.”

—Chantell

“Our engagement photos turned out beautiful. She took her time editing each one to perfection, while also giving a quick turnaround of the images. I can't see ever using another photographer. Katie doesn't disappoint! We also booked her for our wedding and I can't wait to see what she has in store for our wedding day photos!”
