MEET
the ARTIST
Ten years later I still find myself pinching myself over the honor of capturing your most meaningful celebration built around everything that brought you to this moment.
Because I have stood where you're standing. I wore the dress that made a tear slip down my dad's cheek. I danced until my feet ached. I belly laughed harder with my husband, Tyler, than ever before. 13 years later, our wedding is still hands down the BEST day of our lives.
NOW IT'S YOUR TURN
... and I'm ready to welcome you to the Ride or Dye Family, be in your corner, and cheer you on every step of the way.
“I secretly felt like we were long lost best friends."

My Approach
I blend beautiful light with real life to capture candid moments as they unfold, while offering gentle guidance for the portraits you’ll want framed in your home forever.
I’ll step in when you need direction, step back when the magic is happening, and make sure the entire experience feels easy, genuine, and fun. Because life is too short—and your wedding day is too meaningful—not to have the best time while it’s happening.
My Story
Cliff notes version: in case you're wondering who's behind the camera.
Jersey girl (And proud of it.)
Virginia Tech grad (Go Hokies.)
College sweetheart married (Ty Dye is MY Ride or Dye.)
Former second grade teacher (Yes, I can handle the groomsmen.)
Postpartum depression survivor (forever grateful for my Hudson, Beckham, and Sloane.)
Picked up a camera (bet on myself and never looked back. l
Probably listening to Taylor Swift right now (Alexa, play The Life of a Showgirl).
My Promise
I cross my heart to pour myself into your wedding day.
To create an experience that feels meaningful, seamless, and truly unforgettable. I’ll capture the laughter and the quiet in-between moments, carry and fluff that gorgeous train, fix a rogue flyaway, and make sure the tissues are always within reach.
On a day that passes too quickly, I’ll help you slow down, feel like the best version of yourself, stay present—and have the time of your life.
“It's obvious Kate is insanely talented, but also she is so amazing to work with We cannot recommend her enough. ”

“I knew immediately Kate would fit in with us.
She is family now and was the best thing to happen to us during wedding planning.”

Effortlessly elevated. Emotionally honest. Always you.
