Heeey!!

Hi, I’m Kate—your wedding and lifestyle photographer and I’m so excited you’re here!

Your love story deserves to be beautifully captured, cherished and remembered for years to come. Together we’ll freeze every moment—from those breath-stealing, unforgettable instances to the gut-busting, can’t-stop-laughing memories. It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s timeless.

Capturing your epic love story is what sets my soul on fire. I’m a passionate wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Abbotsford, BC (just outside Vancouver), and I’m ready to travel anywhere to document your day. Whether it’s a local adventure or a dream destination, we’ll make it unforgettable together!

Let’s make this unforgettable!

IT'S ALL ABOUT THAT HEART POUNDING, TEARS IN YOUR EYES, WILD AND MAGICAL KIND OF THING!

You’re engaged and beyond excited but your mind is racing with all the things you should do, could do and things you don’t even know about yet. From picking out your perfect white dress to choosing your wedding photographer, you’re torn between planning an intimate elopement or a grand celebration. The lists are piling up and you’re not sure where to start—or even where to turn.

Giiiirrrl, I’ve got you covered!

This is where it all begins—with me. I’m here to help you sort through the chaos and focus on what matters most: capturing your love story. We start with your engagement session and as we get to know each other and work together, I’ll guide you every step of the way. By the time your wedding day arrives, I’m not just your photographer—I’m your trusted friend and third wheel, making sure every moment is perfectly documented so you can enjoy your big day stress-free.

Paige at golden hour. The light was soft, the mead Paige at golden hour.
The light was soft, the meadow was glowing, and everything about this session just clicked.

Sunset has a way of slowing time down—and with Paige moving so effortlessly through it all, it felt like we were capturing a little slice of magic.

Portraits like these aren’t just about pretty photos—they’re about freezing that beautiful feeling✨
The sweetest family session✨ The giggles, the c The sweetest family session✨

The giggles, the cuddles, the memories!
Stef + Chev✨ They may have tied the knot on the Stef + Chev✨

They may have tied the knot on the beaches of Mexico last year, but this weekend we brought the romance to the city—and it was pure fire.

Easily one of my favorite galleries I’ve ever delivered. The rain storm cleared just in time for the sun to break through for the evening—and with the wind picking up at the perfect moment, the magic just continued✨

So much connection, so much style… this session was stunning start to finish.
