NORTH CAROLINA FAITH-LED
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER CAPTURING TRUTH-FILLED,EDITORIAL LOVE STORIES

INTENTIONALLY DOCUMENTING

THE HEART
OF YOUR STORY

The Way It Felt

NORTH CAROLINA

& WORLDWIDE

You’re dreaming of wedding photos that feel like you. Honest, emotional, and elevated in a way that looks effortless. You want someone who will guide you through magazine worthy portraits while quietly documenting the in between moments you never want to forget. Someone who helps you feel calm, confident, and completely yourselves in front of the camera.

That’s exactly the experience I create.

I photograph weddings digitally and on 35mm film, delivering a timeless, true to color aesthetic with a refined editorial edge. My work is rooted in connection and intention, blending gentle guidance with a documentary approach so your gallery feels romantic, alive, and deeply personal. When you work with me, you’re choosing a photographer who cares just as much about how your day feels as how it looks. Your only job is to be present. I’ll take care of the rest.

MEET KATIE

A TRUE LOVE
FOR ROMANCE

And Honest Love Stories

I blend documentary storytelling with guided editorial direction; giving you room to be yourselves while also creating magazine-worthy portraits that feel natural, not staged.

I focus on connection first: learning your story, your energy as a couple, your comfort levels, your love language, and the moments that matter most to you. On your wedding day, I show up prayerfully, calmly, and fully present; capturing everything from the emotional, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments to the refined editorial images you’ll frame forever.

My intention is always the same:

Serve you wholeheartedly, create art that feels true, and give you photographs that will outlive trends & generations.

LOVE NOTES

"I have had the absolute privilege of working with Katie on multiple occasions, and it still doesn’t feel like enough. She is truly incredible, and until you work with her, you won’t fully understand. Her ability to make you feel confident and comfortable, paired with her eye for perfection in capturing authentic moments, is exactly what I was looking for when choosing a photographer!

Of course, your wedding day is about more than pictures... but when all is said and done, the pictures are the closest thing to memories of one of the most important days of your life. Choosing someone who understands YOU and truly gets your vision is essential, and Katie is HER.

From my sister’s graduation photos to my bridal portraits, boudoir shoot, and wedding day, I’ve developed such a deep love for Katie and her work. I genuinely miss her (and our shared love of editorial style photos and flash photography <3). If you are lucky enough to work with her, you will realize she isn’t just your photographer... she’s your biggest fan.

I could go on and on, but her photos truly speak for themselves. Katie, thank you for giving me something so beautiful to cherish for the rest of my life. I can’t wait for our paths to cross again!"

She has a way of making you feel confident and comfortable, while capturing authentic moments with such care and intention.

Your wedding day is about more than photos, but in the end, they’re the closest thing we have to our memories. Choosing someone who truly understands YOU and your vision is essential, and Katie is HER.

From my sister’s graduation photos to my bridal portraits, boudoir shoot, and wedding day, I’ve grown such a deep love for Katie and her work. She isn’t just your photographer; she’s your biggest fan. Her photos speak for themselves, and I’ll cherish them for the rest of my life."

"Genuinely, we don’t even know where to start! We found Katie online and we have never been more thankful for social media. We booked our engagement session and wedding day with her and truly could not have made a better decision! We’ve taken professional photos before but have always felt awkward and outside of ourselves. With Katie, from our first session for our engagement shoot, she helped us feel comfortable and at ease, taking the pressure off and allowing us to be ourselves. This translated to our wedding day. I already knew we were in the most capable hands — she helped us giggle through the nerves, allowed us to be fully in the moment with each other and our loved ones, and navigated through some unforeseen circumstances while still capturing our day with grace and intentionality. Her energy was consistent throughout our day, giving us room to be present with our people. We loved how candid, raw, and natural our photos ended being. They still brings us back to that day, and will continue to do so 50 years from now 🥹 the first time we looked at our gallery, it was IMMEDIATE tears. While there were so many decisions that we made for our wedding day that we were unsure of, Katie was definitely not one of them. There is no one better that could have captured our day so authentically, and we are so so thankful that Katie was able to share her gift to us. We love you Katie!!! 🤍"

"We found Katie online and booking her for both our engagement session and wedding day was the best decision we made. From our very first session, she helped us feel comfortable, at ease, and fully ourselves; something we had never experienced with professional photos before.

On our wedding day, we knew we were in the most capable hands. Katie helped us giggle through the nerves, stay present with each other and our loved ones, and navigate unexpected moments with so much grace and intention. Our photos are candid, raw, and natural, and instantly bring us back to that day. The first time we opened our gallery, there were immediate tears. There is truly no one better to capture a day so authentically. We love you, Katie."

"Katie made our vintage and whimsical fairytale wedding dreams come true! From the very first conversation, Katie was genuine, passionate, and upfront about her style and goals as a photographer. She helped us create the perfect package for our intimate wedding day to make sure that all our special moments would be captured and we could still get that dreamy golden hour sun in our portraits. Katie was fun, directional, and open to new ideas throughout both our wedding day and our engagement session. Her style perfectly captures the true colors and warmth and glow of a magical moment. She worked seamlessly with our other vendors to make sure all our desires were fulfilled for our extremely special day. Our photos are PHENOMENAL and truly show the full whimsy, magic, emotions, and joy the day brought us and our family. The attention to detail of each photo captures the immense amount of effort put into our day and creates a snapshot of so many moments we want to remember forever. You can truly feel the love and emotion pouring out of the photos. Katie perfectly captured all the special details of our day which we will cherish forever. We could not think of a better photographer to have had throughout this time in our lives! 🤍"
