With almost two decades of teaching experience, I am very comfortable working with special needs youth.

I welcome LGBTQ+, BIPOC, differently-abled, and non-traditionally structured families! My pre-session process gives plenty of opportunity for us to make a plan to best meet your family's unique needs.

As a mom of four, I know how hard it is to get everyone moving in the same direction. I've got you! We'll make this fun and low-stress for everyone -- really.

Our focus can be the whole family, your newborn, your new puppy, your rising senior. What is THE story for your family in THIS season? That's what we'll photograph.

Use the Let's Get Started button to reach out. I'll get back to you within 24 hours with a link to my schedule so you can schedule a video call at your convenience.

We'll chat for 20 minutes. You can tell me about your hopes and dreams for the session.  I'll tell you about my process.

If it feels like a good fit, I'll send along the booking information -- a link to my schedule, some forms to fill out and the on-line $300 Creative Fee invoice. The process is 100% on-line. Collections begin at $700. More details below.





Sessions run about 90 minutes. That gives us plenty of time to get some "classic portraits" and a gallery of authentic, fun and creative images! To ensure optimal light, sessions are scheduled about two hours before sunset.





Your future self will be forever grateful for the authentic images we capture.

Let's create photos that will have you saying:
     "Remember when..." 
     "That was before..."
     "Did I ever tell you about the time...?"
     "I felt so.... back then!"

My photos celebrate the beauty of family life -- the connections and the stories of each season. And, I know family life is not easy. I strive to document the way families support each other through life's ups, downs and transitions.

FAmily Photos give future generations a chance to see what the past looked and felt like

All families connected by love and respect feel seen and accepted behind my lens.

My booking and planning process is streamlined for busy families.

A few weeks after your session, you'll get a link to your gallery of over 50 professionally, hand touched digital images.

Printing family photos is an important way to share and retell the stories that connect us. All my collections include digital products as well as print options ranging from wall art to albums and calendars. I'll tell you all about it during our first video call. Collections begin at $700.

I have Questions for Kate

~ Shari w.

"We got our photo products today and we LOVE them! Thank you for helping us capture this time in our lives. ❤️"

~ Ellen c.

" Kate was wonderful; I felt very comfortable in front of her lens. Sometimes you clam up in front of a camera. Not with Kate. She had everybody's name, a sense of personalities, and her guidance was clear and spontaneous." 

~ Rachel C.

"We cannot say enough about how awesome it is to work with Kate! She is one of the most thorough photographers I've ever encountered."

What they're saying...

What if my kids won’t wear the outfits I want them to wear?

When will we get our photos?

What if it rains on our session date?

I firmly believe that the most important thing I’ll be photographing is the love and connection in your family. Ten years from now, I bet you’ll be glad to have photos of your child being their authentic spunky self.

Within four weeks of your session, I’ll email you a link to a slideshow that includes all of your fully edited images.

I’ll be in touch as your session approaches and always leave room in my schedule to move to a date in the near future. I typically only schedule specific rain dates ahead of time for clients traveling from afar.

When do I pick my collection?

Once you’ve had a chance to see all the photos and marvel at them a bit, you’ll have the option to purchase the collection you’d like right there in the gallery. I offer three collections so you only need to purchase the photos you love.

How long is my gallery open? Do I need to pick my photos right away?

Your slideshow will be live for 24 hours, but once you select your collection, your full gallery will be open for a month. During that time you can select the specific digital files and print items you want to fill that collection. It’s very simple and there’s zero pressure.

What does a typical family spend on photos with you?

Most families spend $1300 which includes their creative fee of $300 and the Camel’s Hump package at $1000. That gives families a choice of 25 photos from the over 50 in their gallery plus a $300 print credit to be used in my on-line store.

These families will enjoy an album or custom wall art for decades to come.
