About

Hello!

My name is Katy. I am a fine art, documentary photographer in Saint Louis, MO, that specializes in weddings and engagements. I love to laugh and I try and seek out humor when I can. At heart, I am a true romantic and I have a passion for all things beautiful.

Because I use a fine art approach when documenting weddings, I am always on the look out for genuine smiles, beautiful light, stunning backgrounds and of course, lot's of color. My couples love living in the moment and they know that trusting my process is essential for creating real, emotion filled images. The beauty about weddings is that there are so many great and unique emotions to capture. The joy and love my couples have for each other, as well as their family and friends, is what fuels my creativity.

It is so important to me that your images tell a story when seen as a collective whole. No two weddings are ever alike. By getting to know you as a couple, I am able to create honest and thoughtful images that are uniquely you. Images that will make you laugh, cry and most importantly, remember. Your memories very important to me and I would be honored to have the opportunity to capture them for you.

If you like to laugh. If you love creative, colorful and candid images and if you believe that no two weddings should ever look the same, then let's talk. I would love to meet for coffee at your favorite coffee shop to hear more about your wedding day.

I will woo you with a cinnamon scone!

" A good photographer is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart, and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it " - Irving Penn

Book. Her. Immediately.

Katy is such an incredible human being and such a talented photographer. Even though I hate taking pictures and I felt a lot of anxiety around it, she made every experience completely effortless and so much fun from engagement pictures to day of the wedding pictures. Dealing with my HUGE family is not easy, but she did it with such grace. The quality of my pictures are indescribable and I can't wait until there is another huge life event of mine that she can shoot. I honestly can not say enough good things about her.

Katy was arguably one of the most important people on our wedding day. My now husband and I are both designers and were very particular about the photographer we hired and the quality of the photos. Katy went above and beyond to make sure we received exactly what we had imaged. She was very flexible with our schedules, and we could tell that she went the extra mile to make us happy while still respecting our budget.

When we first met up with Katy to see if we would be a good fit for each other, we immediately felt comfortable with her and felt that she could really capture us as a couple. Katy was very professional and always treated us with respect while still having fun! I highly recommend hiring Katy for anyone's wedding, as she is truly one of a kind. THANK YOU KATY!

Katy is one of the most naturally gifted photographers I have ever worked with, and that is no mean feat given much of my career has been in fashion photography. Her ability to read her subject and capture the emotive content of a moment is second to none. She excels in natural light and always delivers a beautiful variety of images in her narratives. Do yourself a favor and hire her, I promise you will not be disappointed!

Katy Corea is a life-saver. Okay, perhaps not literally, and perhaps it's too intolerably trite to even say, but she did enter into the frenzied eleventh-hour scene of our wedding with admirable (nay, heroic!) resolve and with enough skill and resourcefulness and flexibility to impress even us-- snobs, mind you, and cheap snobs at that.

Despite our ignorance of wedding photography and our relative-shortage of time, Katy was kind enough to create a package especially for us within our price-range and in keeping with the rather intimate proportions of our event. Also, being a tad on the quirky side, we requested of her a very particular style of photography, one that she might have easily attempted to talk us out of; but, instead, she seemed delighted to explore and experiment with our ideas and to embrace them as fodder for her own imagination and (already-impressive) skillset.

And beyond mere aesthetics and logistics, beyond her efficiency and efficacy and professionalism, Katy is also a truly affable and good-hearted individual, one whom I would be happy to support, and delighted to recommend, time and time again.

Katy was the best!!! We hired Katy to do our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. We were floored by how perfect all the photos were. We were just as happy with the photo-taking experience. My wife and I aren't real big on having photos taken of us. We feel awkward posing and having someone photograph us. Katy made our engagement session fun and sans awkwardness--it was like walking around the city with your friend who happens to be snapping photos of you. Katy knew where to go for good photographs, she knew how and where she wanted us to stand, etc. It was an all-around great experience.

The wedding day was no different. It was cold outside, but we wanted some pictures outdoors in my wife's hometown. We got lots of great pictures in a bunch of different locations and didn't have to stand outside for 3 hours. Katy was super efficient and was able to get 20 people organized and posed for photos without being pushy. She was just as good with all of the family photos. The ceremony photos were amazing too. Oh, she also nailed the reception photographs! Katy stuck around and captured some of the best and most energetic parts of the reception dance party.

Ok, I'm done. Katy does an amazing job; she is extremely nice; and she is very easy to work with. All that for an affordable price! I'd recommend her to anyone!

Katy Corea is one of the best creative wedding photographers. She is so unique and creative with her work, and her study of photography shows in her photos. Katy has such a sweet personality and really makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her packages are well-rounded and the quality you receive is noticeable. My fiance and I were able to have an E-session with Katy and she was able to capture some beautiful moments. Futhermore, on the wedding day, she was punctual, encouraging, and really strived to make sure you were happy and getting the pictures you wanted. Even my dad, who wasn't really involved with pictures, said Katy was professional, kind, and knew what she was doing! I would definitely recommend K. Corea Photography for you wedding event.

My photographer was SO wonderful. She made me so comfortable in front of the camera. She was so creative about where to take photos and an absolute master of making the light work wherever we were. Also the candid photos of friends and family are the best.

We were looking for a photographer that had more of a photojournalistic feel so that we could live our wedding day vs. feel like we were being positioned in pose after pose.

Katy was the perfect match for what we were looking for. Before the wedding she asked us to send over a list of "must have" photographs to make sure that she could keep track of everything that we would want a picture of, but on the day of, everything else felt incredibly natural. Katy gave a us a few ideas for poses, but for the most part she just blended really well into our day.

When we got the pictures back, we were so happy with how well everything was captured. All the pictures were very real, how we really looked when we were laughing or crying, not pretending to be doing those things. They were a great reflection of how we and our guests were feeling. She also did a great job finding shots where the light was really amazing so everything just looked perfectly balanced and natural, without any photoshop!

We couldn't be happier and highly recommend!
