On the Fraser River at Sunset in Chilliwack, BC

September 19, 2020
Family  ·  Featured  ·  Lifestyle  ·  Photography

I used to try keeping my children in control during family photo sessions but after many failed attempts in the early years I’ve learnt that’s not real life (and so not worth the stress).

We will run, play and laugh together. They will likely leave with dirt on their clothes and promises for a treat when you leave and THAT’S OK. (I’m pretty sure the key to parenting in bribery anyway) so why not get the best gallery possible while having a fun time together after too?

These moments we capture are going to be real, raw and true to what life as a family is like. I want everyone to arrive at your photo session stress free and know that we will just roll with whatever happens and make the most of it all. The giggles and the shy snuggles can make some of the most timeless photos that will decorate your walls for years!

Let's freeze this moment in time, together

Hey, I’m Kate 👋 The face behind the lens and Hey, I’m Kate 👋
The face behind the lens and the heart behind every story I get to capture.

I’m a portrait and wedding photographer based in the Fraser Valley — photographing real connections, genuine laughter, and the moments that make your story yours.

What I do has never just been about photos. It’s about freezing time — the quiet in-betweens, the confidence that shines through, the emotions you’ll still feel years down the road. I want your images to remind you how this season of your life felt.

Whether I’m capturing your business brand, your growing family, or the start of your forever — I’m all in. Because your story deserves to be remembered beautifully.

So if we haven’t met yet… hi, I’m Kate — and I can’t wait to create something meaningful together this season 🤍

No cameras, no expectations—just a quiet moment to breathe it all in.

Sarah and David did exactly that. They slipped away from the bustle, stood hand in hand overlooking their ceremony site, and let the day sink in. The view, the calm, the love—it was everything.

Because sometimes the best part of your wedding isn’t the big celebration, it’s the quiet space in between where you realize... this is your forever.

Sam and Dino brought the perfect mix of romance and connection to this mountain-side session—proof that bridal portraits don’t have to be just about the dress, but about the story, the connection, and the moments in between.
