Charlotte North Carolina Wedding Photographer
Hi, I'm Katie. My background as a zookeeper let me see that life becomes so much more joyful when you follow your dreams. Time waits for no one. You owe it to yourself to do things that make you happy.
When I found I wasn't truly living my dream, I decided to find a career that set my heart ablaze. I wanted to help others do what makes them happy, especially on the one day that holds such love, companionship, and signifies a new beginning.
I am more than your wedding photographer; I am your friend. I help couples create an intentional experience that allows for genuine love, connection, and emotion to shine through in every image.
Welcome!
