About your photographer
I’m Kate, and while I had those dreamy first-week photos taken with my first two babies, I missed out on them with my third. As an IVF warrior, I know just how much love, hope, and waiting can go into bringing a baby into your arms—and how deeply important it is to hold onto these moments.
That’s why I’ve made it my mission to be the person who steps in and says, “I’ve got this.”
My goal is for you to relax, breathe, and walk away with images that feel like your baby’s very first love story.

These moments are fleeting—the tiny kicks, the newborn snuggles, the love that grows in ways you never imagined. My job is to preserve them with timeless, emotive images that will be treasured for generations.

Fun Facts
When I’m not behind the camera, you can usually find me with an iced coffee in hand—it’s basically my fuel. My playlists are always looping between Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen, and if I had the chance, I’d drop everything for a trip to the beach.
I’m one of those people who’s up by 7 a.m. no matter what, but don’t expect me to make it through a late-night movie—I’m usually asleep on the couch next to my husband by 9. When I do sneak in some downtime, it’s usually binge-watching Law & Order: SVU (Olivia Benson is my comfort friend).
Comfort is my go-to, so most days you’ll find me in leggings and a cozy oversized hoodie or sweatshirt—that’s my photography “uniform.” And something that often surprises people? I’m a mom of three and an IVF mama, which makes documenting these fleeting family moments even more meaningful to me.
Time to Exhale …
When new parents inquire, they tell me they’re nervous about the baby crying, or about looking tired.
But when they get their photos, they’re always surprised by how calm it feels and how peaceful it looks!
The room is quiet, warm, and slow on purpose.
I follow your baby’s lead, settle in where you are, and give you space to just breathe.
You’ll walk away feeling like someone finally saw this moment for what it really is: hard & beautiful.
