She is a big-picture thinker who moves into a creative flow while photographing weddings - finding moments of beauty and spontaneity and approaching every wedding with a calm, positive spirit.

With 12+ years of editorial and wedding photography experience, Kate has a curator’s eye for design and sees each wedding as a collaborative opportunity. She keeps her body of work diverse in style with a rotation of a dozen different film cameras, and has photographed events across the globe in locations such as Spain, Italy, Mexico, India, and Iceland.
