Meet Kati
I started shooting weddings over a decade ago, yet still wake up everyday feeling so grateful that this is my job! Over the last 10+ years, I've photographed hundreds of weddings all over the world. Every single one of my couples has impacted me and helped me grow into the artist that I am today. Knowing that the images I take will be passed down and cherished for generations is truly humbling. I wouldn't want to do anything else and can truly say that I love my job!
I live in central Arkansas with my husband and kids, who I adore more than words. Sundays are strictly reserved for QT with my little fam. I'm a foodie with a weak spot for charcuterie boards and fancy cocktails, I use entirely too many exclamation marks, and I love Christmas so much that I don't take December weddings just so I can soak in the season as much as possible.

I never planned on growing up and becoming a wedding photographer, but now that I’m here it makes perfect sense. As a little girl, I told everyone I wanted to be an artist someday. After college, I landed a job as an art director at an ad agency. While I enjoyed my job, I still dabbled in different creative outlets on the side, including cake decorating for awhile before teaching myself photography.
When my husband and I got engaged I decided to splurge on our dream wedding photographer (best decision ever). The moment I saw our wedding photos, I realized being a wedding photographer was something I wanted to do. It’s so much more than taking pretty pictures… it’s creating priceless heirlooms for generations to cherish.
I shot my first weddings in 2013 and was able to go full-time in January 2014. Over the years, I have photographed hundreds of weddings and traveled all over the world for this incredible job! I still pinch myself that I get to do what I love for a living.
My style focuses on joyful, dreamy, romantic images full of beautiful light and natural emotion. I look for good light everywhere I go, and if I’m behind a camera there’s a good chance I’ll let out a squeal of delight when the delicious light comes out! I love photos where my clients look and feel like the best versions of themselves – my goal for every photograph is to capture true joy and memories!

I am a hybrid photographer, which means I shoot on both film and digital cameras. Film is my favorite medium, and I'm in love with the dreamy colors, the buttery-soft look, and the intimacy that shooting on film gives me. It forces me to slow down and think about each shot, and it's a timeless medium of photography my clients love. I also shoot digitally in fast-paced or low-light situations. I edit my digital images to match the tones of my film ones, with a goal of making them seamless in your curated gallery.
