We're the parents of 3 lively children that make every day an adventure. We serve a great God who has blessed us beyond measure. We believe in honest and deeply committed marriages, above all else.

We'd love to meet you for a latte or glass of wine.

Fantastic Desert Wedding Photographer

Katie was an integral part of our special day and she demonstrated consummate care and professionalism from the moment we booked her for our wedding. I really appreciated that she took the time to get to know me and my husband on a personal level, which definitely helped on the actual wedding day. You can tell Katie and her husband become invested in the couples they photograph. She was timely in the delivery of the photos for both our engagement and wedding, and provided "sneak-peeks" immediately afterwards so we had something to see. We were really looking for a photographer who was comfortable in the desert environment and it was an absolute bonus that Katie lives in that area. She was able to suggest a great location for engagement photos (windmills) and knew about factors that could affect the wedding day (climate, what time the sun would set behind the mountains, etc).

Katie was so easy to have around on the actual day, she captured many special moments shared between our family and friends and never felt in the way. We were especially impressed with how she utilized natural light in the photos. We were so pleased with Katie McGihon Photography and could not recommend her more highly.

To any couples on the fence, just go with Katie and you won't regret a single thing. Katie and Scott are two of the most wonderful people you will work with. They are easy going, fun, and just make things work. The experience shared between the two photographers shows in their work and who they are. You feel as you are part of their lives when they will be part of yours. If I had to sum it up, it was their work that helped me realized, "wow, I'm married" because that day will just fly by, but these two will be there to capture it all for you to let you and your special one relive that small fragment of time for the rest of your lives.

We love Katie and Scott! Once we confirmed that our wedding would be held at the Ace in Palm Springs, our next step was to book KMP. I had seen their work for other weddings and fell in love with the lighting and the fact that all of Katie's brides look gorgeous in their photos. Katie and her team came to our welcome party, made everyone feel really comfortable in front of the camera, and captured some great shots of our friends and family. She really blew us away at the wedding, though! From the moment she and Scott arrived, her artistry was evident. She captured every detail, and prepped me to see my future husband for our first look. Katie and Scott walked us through the first look in such a delicate and loving way. It was so special for us!
We got some sneak peeks at a few shots and were blown away! They helped us pose in a way that felt (and looked) so, so natural and lovely.
They were there to capture every aspect of the ceremony and reception. Though we haven't seen the final photos, we're confident that they are going to be FANTASTIC.
It made a real impact for us to work with a husband and wife team. They were really fun to be around, worked incredibly well as a team, and put both of us at ease throughout the event. They're adorable together and compliment each other's styles, for sure!
Love that they shot both digital and film, too!! Their passion and kindness shone through every aspect of the day, and we felt like we were their professional priority on the day of and in all communication leading up to the event. Highly, highly recommend!

I have worked with Katie McGihon on multiple weddings and photoshoots. Not only are their images the best you can find, but Katie and Scott are absolutely wonderful to work with. They are personable and have an ease to them that is contagious. I always love finding out a couple has selected them for their wedding.
