Let’s Talk About What You Really Came For
My Philosophy
Do you remember earlier when I talked about how my approach to weddings is probably going to be quite different from the average photographer? And that I’m here to present a new mindset for you to consider - rather than making this incredibly important day about the photos, what if we worked together to make the photos about this incredibly important day?
Well now I’m here to explain exactly how I do that!
My approach is unique and different...

- the importance of intentionality -
- the importance of trust -
Shifting The Perspective
INTENTIONALITY
But in order for you to even feel comfortable enough to engage with each other, you have to trust the vision, the guidance and the opportunities that present themselves during your session/wedding day.
I will never push you away from LIVING and remaining PRESENT on wedding day - that is, and always will be my top priority - but it's super important for both client and photographer to trust the other party and make decisions that truly accomplish the same vision.
TRUST
At the end of the day, trust cannot happen without intentionality, and intentionality cannot happen without time.
The moment we start to rush, or try to squeeze in photos within a certain timeframe, is the moment we lose the magic of not only authenticity & creativity, but also your ability to remain fully present and enjoying every moment as well.
So What Can You Expect?
As a result of all our hard work and preparation beforehand, your sneak peek images will be sent to you within 1 week of wedding day!

With proper planning and execution, you will then be able to truly LIVE your day, while I not only photograph it as it plays out, but also take charge when necessary and provide guidance/support every step of the way.

STEP two
My involvement in timeline creation is absolutely crucial to the experience of wedding day - we will be talking about this right from the get go!

Brandon & Ellisa
Kate is hands down amazing and so talented! We hired Kate for our engagement photos and our wedding! Both photo galleries came out sooo beautiful and soooo perfect! Literally, every person who has seen our photos has commented on the Kate's skills! My husband is not a fan of picture taking and she made the experience so fun and easy! Her laugh is contagious, which results in adorable, natural photos of laughter and smiles! She was super open to us having our son involved in our engagement photos, which meant the world to us! We live in Arizona and had our engagement photos and our wedding in California, so communication with our vendors was super important and she always responded to our questions quickly! Kate is genuinely a great person and is so fun to work with! Even though we live is separate states, my husband and I definitely found our go-to photographer. We’ll definitely be booking with her again for future couple/family photos!
"Okay Kate, but what does this PRACTICALLY mean??"

When it comes to the exact pricing for packages, it's important to note one of the main differences between myself and the average photographer. Most photographers will charge based off an hourly breakdown for the wedding day. However, the experience provided with my services extends outside of just my time photographing on wedding day - I deeply value the involvement in the time leading up to, as well as during all the editing after the wedding day. And even beyond the amount of time invested, there is also the consideration of all the skill + expertise that is unique to my experience as well.
As a result, the pricing below is based off of an experiential mindset - the numbers listed encapsulate the entire process from beginning to end - not just my time on wedding day.
Let's get down to the nitty gritty...
Traditional, standard weddings start at 6000
Small weddings/elopements start at 3500
Engagement sessions start at 800
