I'm Kate, a portrait, event, and commercial photographer based in Kansas City.

For over a decade, I've been capturing people on camera, always seeking genuine moments. I believe in living life to the fullest and feel honored to document its many phases—whether it's life, love, family, or business. My approach is always honest and genuine, ensuring that each moment is authentically preserved. In business settings, I excel at connecting with individuals to produce exceptional headshots and branding images.

At the heart of my work are connection and composition—core values that drive my artistry. I want your photos to evoke the emotions you felt at that moment.

I love collaborating on styling and location to make each shoot unique. Whether capturing love, families, or business, I lead with posing, composition, and capturing your best representation.

My biggest inspiration comes from direct light, laughter, hands, the sky, genuine connections, vulnerability, dancing, music, togetherness, imperfections, film, wind in your hair, people, and pops of color.

I am an extroverted, fashion-forward individual with a passion for art, live music, travel, nature, and cycling. While primarily a baker, I've been rounding out my cooking skills seeking fresh ingredients and recipes in recent years.
