We finally found the perfect photographer for our family! As someone who worked in film and photography in LA and NYC, I have high standards when it comes to photography, and Katie met them all! She's creative, patient, professional, and collaborative. Some of our favorite pictures were candid moments she captured that disappear in the blink of an eye. A lot of photographers miss those moments, but not Katie - and it really showed in the final product. On top of it all, she was great working with our kids and made them feel comfortable. All in all, we're very pleased and look forward to working

Katie's work is absolutely incredible. Not only are her photography skills phenomenal, she has an awesome personality and was insightful during the whole process. This is our first child, and definitely first birth photographer, so the idea of it was different, but we knew we wanted to capture the moment. Katie has enough experience with this and was able to walk us through the "typical" pictures to expect and asked if we had any moments we'd want her to capture.
Overall, Katie was professional, polite, respectful and the quality of her work was well worth it. She prepared a video/slideshow to

We hired Katie for a mini maternity shoot and a full family shoot after our second daughter arrived. We also asked her to create a video of both shoots. Our oldest daughter was her terrible twos self on the days of both shoots, and I was shocked at how many amazing photos Katie got. Katie was easy to work with, and shows in the laid back moments she was able to capture. We are so pleased with the results!
