About

Hey there, I'm Katy! I love documenting big outdoor weddings and weekend-long parties with awesome people. Epic outdoor photoshoots make me SO happy, and spending real, quality time with people is incredibly important to me.

Why? Because people give me energy, and bringing them together is my passion! Whether it's documenting the community that surrounds a couple, or building a community of friends and photographers in Portland, Oregon where I live, it makes me feel alive.

To me, the best weddings are the ones that last a whole weekend or longer. The ones where you get to spend a ton of time with your loved ones and throw a party so epic that you’ll have to look back through your phone the next day to remember all of it.

I would LOVE to get to know you and hear about your relationship and your wedding. Feel free to browse through my reviews and check out my website or blog for more information, or email me to ask about your date!

Wedding Photography Wizard Ninja!!

We hired Katy as our wedding photographer and let me tell you...there is nobody else we would have rather worked with. Katy is the friendliest, sweetest, most organized and professional human we've ever had the pleasure of meeting.

She walked us through her process and recommendations every step of the way. She took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for as well as the dynamics of our guests so she can tell our story that much clearer. On the day of, she was a flurry of stealthy activity as she moved around capturing all the best moments of our wedding. We have absolutely zero regrets choosing Katy to be the one to capture this event.

THANK YOU KATY!!!

The best ever

BOOK KATY. She not only took the most wonderful wedding photos, but was so fun to work with. The energy she brings is exactly what you want on your wedding day. Every single guest at our 64 person wedding mentioned how fantastic our photographer was.
As a couple, we generally don’t like taking pictures as we feel awkward most of the time. (What do I do with my hands?!)
Katy made us feel so comfortable, but was also able to give us the instruction we needed to get the best possible photos. The candids are phenomenal, the dance photos are spectacular. All the photos are incredible, we look incredible in them- and it’s 100% because of Katy.
Our wedding day was shot in the most beautiful way, with photos that match how we felt - magical. The turn around time was unbelievably quick, and the amount of photos is amazing.
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

Can't imagine my wedding without Katy

I thought I'd write this review immediately after my wedding. I always love scrolling through Instagram and seeing another sneak peek from another gorgeous wedding Katy has just photographed and then days later she would post a darling, eloquently written review by the couple. This always made me smile because I could feel the joy and appreciation in their kind words and Katy deserves every accolade! Alas, here I am, almost four months since the unforgettable weekend Katy spent documenting the love my husband and I share. Just like this untimely review, when planning a wedding it's important to remember that not everything will go exactly to plan, and that's ok!

Katy taught Charles and I to drink in the salty negative ions at the beach, laugh about the late guests, lean in to the feelings of the here and now, share secrets about future heartbeats, cherish fleeting moments with friends, and mutually gush about how much we love this little piece of heaven we call home.

Katy is so much more than an experienced professional and creative wedding photographer (although she is definitely those things too). Katy can be a fly on the wall or a shoulder to cry on and she knows exactly when to be which. If you are reading this review I think it probably goes without saying that you have explored her portfolio and maybe even stalked her Instagram and have melted into her genuine and emotive photographic form of expression. You might even know that she has a darling husband with an afinity for DIY, a spindly and perfect greyhound, an obsession with bird watching and an introspective tendency for stunning self portraits. So what insider insight can I possibly provide you with that adequately adds to Katy's multifaceted fan base? How can I be your little drop of bridal wisdom?
You get once chance at pulling that beautiful wedding vision out of your brain and letting it materialize in the waking world. One chance at showing your loved ones what color your heart is, what specific shade of sunlight illuminates your dreams, and what it feels like when your partner holds you in that embrace that feels like home.

From the moment you book Katy as your wedding photographer she will help you and your partner move between the swirling dream world in your head and the ever-faithful gravity of reality without missing a beat.

Someday, when the dust has settled and the thank you cards have been sent you will pull out the wedding album you and Katy created and splash back into the feelings of your favorite day. In those private moments, when you feel a little smile creep across your face or a salty tear slip from your cheek, Katy has fulfilled one of her many, irreplaceable purposes on this earth. Thank you Katy.
Hannah & Charles
