WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

From Austin to New York City, I create maternity portraits that are embodied, timeless, and full of life. Every sacred session is designed to help mamas-to-be feel confident, radiant, and deeply connected.

Hi, I’m Kat, Your Wedding Photographer.

TACO OBSESSED, ENNEAGRAM 8, yogi, personal development junkie

Hey, I’m Kat! I’m a maternity and lifestyle photographer based in Austin Texas. For over 16 years, I’ve had the honor of capturing people through life’s most meaningful seasons. My work has been featured in Vanity Fair, GQ, People, and more, and trusted by celebrities, global brands, and hundreds of families who want photos that feel both timeless and alive.

But beyond the accolades, here’s what matters most: supporing women to feel radiant, confident, and deeply connected in front of the camera—especially in the sacred season of motherhood. 

Whether we’re shooting a maternity session in the heart of Austin, capturing a glowing mama-to-be at McKinney Falls, or creating natural portraits in the golden evening light, I’m here to photograph not just what you look like, but the joy, intimacy, and strength of who you are.

Portfolio

My style is what I call The Classic In-Between—timeless and playful wedding photography with a touch of editorial elegance, blended with candid moments that make you say, “That’s so me!”

from: ashley + keith

Kat is a true professional, wonderful to work with, and extremely talented.
What better way to relive the most magical moments of our lives than with the timeless photos that captured our wedding day. Kat made the memories of our day extraordinary, and we can’t thank her enough.  Thank you Kat!

from: don + eddie

We had a blast working with Kat and have been crying tears of joy every time we look through the gallery.
Once again, a HUGE thank you to Kat for the wonderful job she and her team did to capture our special day. We will be printing, framing, and photo album-ing (not a word but you know) many of these pieces of art she's created!!!

from: lauren + peter

Kat's pictures bring to life our wedding day so that it can be relived, full of joy.
Kat perfectly captured the memory of our wedding with a feel of timeless elegance. From the intimate moments to the overall spirit of celebration. 

It's time you finally did that thing you've always wanted to do.

Your Sacred Season Captured.

Pregnancy is fleeting. One day you’ll look back and hardly remember what it felt like to carry this little life inside you. Maternity photography gives you timeless images of this once-in-a-lifetime season—so you and your child can treasure them forever.

Most mamas worry they’ll feel awkward in front of the camera. That’s where I come in. With 16+ years of full-time experience, I’ll guide you with posing, natural movement, laughter, and connection—so your photos feel effortless, confident, and so you.

The Vibes

My vibe is what I call The Classic In-Between. It’s timeless + playful portraits with a hint of editorial polish, mixed with candid, fly-on-the-wall moments that’ll make you say, “That’s so me!”

Not stiff or over-posed.
Not hyper-trendy filters that will feel dated in a few years.
Just timeless, classic wedding + engagement photography in Austin + NYC that stands the test of time.

BONUS ALERT!

Not sure how to pose?

Don't WORRY. I got you. With 16+ years of  editorial experience with work featured in: Vanity Fair, GQ, Glamour, People, US Weekly, WWD, Forbes (and more), Kat is an expert in guiding you into your body, and into poses that feel authentic and bring out the best version of you.

You know how to get down + dirty on the dance floor + you’re also that person who will give your friend a giant bear hug + ask how are you really? and truly mean it. You show up for the people you love.

You’ll start the dance party + have a heart-to-heart with your bestie.

kat's dream clients

You’re as authentic as it gets. There’s not a fake bone in your body. Not only are you a believer in people, you are also that friend who’s willing to share a hard truth when need be. 

Just like J.Lo, you're real.

our dream clients

Being present matters to you. Of course who doesn’t love a good social media scroll. But you know when to “hang up + hang out”. You value the real life connection that comes through the gift of being present. 

You know when to hang up + hang out.

our dream clients

You’re a class act that’s for sure. You'll save for that investment piece you'll have forever. But you’re also gonna get that cute top from Zara that you know you'll make fun of 5 years from now.

You're a class act with a dash of sass.

our dream clients

You have a refined + elevated style. The details matter to you. You're willing to invest time + resources to create an environment that truly reflects y-o-u, but you also know when to turn off Pinterest and just walk away! At the end of the day, you know it's people that matter most! 

Aesthetic matters, but people matter more.

REAL RESULTS

REAL PEOPLE

"I was so nervous to be in front of the camera, but Kat put both my fiancé and I at ease.
 

Not only is she incredibly talented + professional, but she made our entire session so much fun. She was truly able to capture our love story. The photos Kat took of us are hands down the best photos we have ever taken together.

"It was truly a gift to have Kat shoot our engagements in DUMBO.

Kat is a blast, and she has the profound ability to capture not only the natural light, but the spirit and love of the couple she is working with–we were no exception. Brian and I will treasure these photos for a lifetime.

james earned 10k a month

"Kat was a dream to have photograph our wedding.

One of the biggest pluses is how quick she moved during the big group photos with family and the wedding party; everyone wants that to be over quickly–and somehow, she made even those shots fun!

FAQs

When is the best time for engagement photos?

If you're sending save the dates, then 3 months prior to that! If you're not, then let's find a time that has the best light, weather + lines up with both of our schedules!

How long have you been shooting?

I have been professionally shooting full-time since 2008. Ya...I'm older than I look.

Do you bring a 2nd shooter?

Unless your wedding is less than 50 people, I will always bring a second shooter to every wedding. This allows me to get a holistic perspective of the day.

Do you offer retouching?

I offer basic retouching + color correction on all my images (take a look at all my website images + you can expect images edited in a similar vein). If you are wanting extra love to your photos, I offer a retouching fee of $150/hr.

How many photos will I recieve + by when?

On average, you’ll receive 75-100 fully edited, high-resolution images per hour of shooting. Your custom proofing gallery will be delivered within 8 weeks of your wedding + 2 weeks from your engagements.

"We recently hired Kat to shoot our wedding and photos the day before.

 We chatted before to speak about my vision, which wasn’t typical. To say she knocked it out of the park would be an understatement. Not only am I obsessed with the moments she captured and created but everyone who sees them is too. I keep getting texts from family and friends telling me how amazing the photos are. It’s the best feeling when you trust your photographer and they deliver beyond what you could expect. Thank you Kat!!
