About

Hey friends! I’m your East coast gal who followed a dream of travel, and a love for capturing the raw, real, human experience out to the Pacific North(west) 5 yrs ago. I’m a lover of outdoor adventuring, a night owl, empath, with a hope to leave this place better than I found it, by making people feel seen and a little more like the magic they are. Truly. I believe in love, and that it’s the closest thing we have to that magic we so effortlessly believed in when we were little. I’m here to help you shine and relive your moments long after the sun sets on your best day. Swipe right if it sounds like we could be a good match? ;)

As a Wedding Wire Couple’s Choice (2021) & The Knot Best Of Weddings (2022) Photographer, someone with 7+ years Events industry experience, and a recent Bride, I know professionally and personally how important your vision is. If we work together, you’re trusting me with more than just capturing beautiful images of your day. You’re trusting your vendors with your experience, loved ones, vulnerability, and how you’ll remember these moments. You deserve more than a stranger with a good eye shaping your experience. As your professional 3rd wheel, I’m here to get to know & plan with you, so that you are able to be present & authentically yourselves on your day!

When she says "friend with a lens," she truly means it. Kat is the best!!

I am so happy with East to West Images - Kat was utterly amazing. We met over coffee before my wedding where she was so kind and personable; she helped me bring to life the pictures I wanted captured of our wedding day into a game plan. She is so easy to get along with and in addition to taking beautiful pictures of our wedding, she was always checking in with me to see if I needed anything. I cannot recommend her enough!! When she says "friend with a lens," she truly means it. Kat is the best!! She was punctual, professional, and truly exceeded my expectations. I am so thankful we found her as she did an amazing job of capturing the perfect blend of posed and candid pictures that will help us commemorate our wedding for years and years to come!

Amazing to work with!

Working with Kat has been one of the best experiences I’ve had professionally. I’ve second shot for her as well as worked along side her doing video for a few weddings during the 2022 season. She’s a joy to work with and is really good at putting everyone around her at ease and in a cheerful mood. She’s one of those genuinely kind and uplifting people who’s energy is just nice to around, I’ve seen her adapt effortlessly to any wedding or event need and provide support and solutions. Her work stands out because of her style that stands out yet is able to capture each couples day in uniquely. She really is your friend with a lens!

East to West Images - Amazing!!!

Hiring Kat was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding at Jenne Farm on Whidbey Island. My husband and I had different ideas of what we wanted for our photography. I wanted grand landscape images and he wanted raw emotion, unposed images. We talked Kat through our wants and provided her with sample photos. Wow, she absolutely delivered. Within days of our wedding, she provided 37 photos and we were blown away. She completely understood what we wanted and the end result is absolutely gorgeous!!!
Working with Kat was an absolute joy. She is such a fun person. She bantered with our guests and had people laughing, smiling, and enjoying the photo sessions. She felt more like a friend than someone we hired. Her words of affirmation throughout the wedding prep, the moments leading up to the wedding, and during the event were greatly appreciated. Hire Kat. Look no further. She's a spectacular photographer and you want her behind the camera on your special day.

Like sunshine on a cloudy day!

Thank you, Kat for always giving me/us your best both behind the camera and in other moments of life! You really made our photo session one to remember. You know how to capture both the little and small moments of magic. ✨ You also know how to make your muse/models/couples feel so seen, loved, and energized. You go above and beyond in the duties required of a photographer and I appreciate that a lot. Would 100/10 recommend!

Kat is the best

Kat was actually the first vendor I hired after my husband and I became engaged. We had talked to a few photographers, but after a phone call with Kat, that was that. She has a very kind, warm energy that she brings to her shoots. Kat's also just a lot of fun in general! Which is why I liked her so much. That and her photos are gorgeous. She and our Day-of Coordinator really had our event down to a science, with some wiggle room for when we asked to talk to our guests a bit longer or have our moment alone after the ceremony. Kat had many affirming words for all of us throughout the day, too!

I'll let Kat's work speak for itself, but she sent us around 40 images after the wedding, rather than her usual 5-12 because we had been working together for so long! She is the sweetest person and had many kind words for us about our wedding. Definitely hire this lady! You won't regret it!

10/10 Best Photographer Ever!

Wow, where do I even start? Kat is such an amazing photographer to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants a phenomenal photoshoot! Her attention to even the smallest detail and willingness to listen to what I wanted, made me feel so comfortable and confident that she was going to beautifully capture all of the most special moments. Let’s just say that I am BEYOND happy with my baby shower photos! They are so stunning and turned out even better than I could’ve ever imagined. You can tell by looking at each photo that Kat is truly passionate about what she does about puts so much thought and care when working with her clients! Hire Kat for your next event!! You will not be disappointed!

Kat is amazing

We hired Kat for 4-5 hours and she ended up staying for about 8 hours to make sure she got all the photos we want! She never looked at the clock, she was one of the last people to leave. Even before the wedding she was quick to respond, so sweet and so so helpful. I will recommend her to everyone looking for a photographer! Thank you Kat for making our wedding an amazing day!! She went above and beyond in every way :)

An Unexpected Day

Kat did more for us than I anticipated. We met with Kat a week before the wedding over coffee to discuss our plans and what we had in mind for the day. Coming into it we had almost nothing planned. She was very thorough and asked questions like "are there any people you feel would be best to avoid putting together?" and "what kind of pairing are you hoping to see?" and "are there any sides and angles you do and don't like to see in a photo?" etc.
After our meeting, I felt a lot more relieved because things seemed to fall into place for us. But I had no idea just how incredible the day would turn out because of our amazing photographer!

My husband moved from Germany to be with me, so his family needed to fly over for the wedding. His and my family both have a language barrier and never met before - so you can imagine that a wedding such as ours would have been stressful and awkward on many levels. Fortunately for us, Kat has an incredibly positive and attractive personality! She ended up being an ice breaker for us that left both of our families smiling and laughing together throughout the entire photo shoot and forgot that there was a language barrier in the first place. She was definitely a miracle worker for us!

As a side note, I personally felt awkward and insecure about being the center of attention. I was not looking forward to the wedding. I really owe it to Kat for getting me through the day and helping me enjoy it as any bride should!

As for her responsiveness and quality of work, it blew my mind. We got her sneak peak photos the evening after the wedding, and I must say I was more than thrilled. I never liked photos of me as much as I liked Kat's photos. Instead of never wanting to see them again as with any typical photo, I now want to frame and be able to see them all the time! She really captured us and our happiness that day which I will always remember when looking at them. I am truly happy and privileged to have asked Kat to be the photographer at our wedding!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
