I had the pleasure of working with Kate this summer as a wedding florist, and I couldn't have been more impressed.

If you’re searching for a photographer who turns fleeting moments into timeless memories, look no further—Kate is the one.

We loved working with Kate! We loved our photos from the engagement shoot and the wedding!! One thing we told over and over again was to make sure you found a photographer that you like given they are with you the whole wedding day. We found Kate to be very calming and funny, and she made us feel at ease during the anxiety provoking “photoshoot sets” ☺️ Definitely recommend her!!
