Engagement & couples

It’s all about the two of you.

Whether you’re planning an anniversary session, a “just because” photoshoot or starting your wedding experience with your engagement session, this is all about you.

Imagine spending and evening cuddling up to each other, laughing together and simply being who you are with each other. This is how our time will be while I capture something truly authentic for the two of you. The real laughter, love and time together.

The emotion between you is what you’ll want to frame on your wall, not just a pretty picture.

Getting married? An engagement session is included in some wedding collections. It’s our warm-up: you learn how I direct, I learn how you two are together and the nerves are gone long before the wedding day.

Anniversary, Golden Ears

What to expect

No awkward poses, I promise.

  • Getting to know you

    Through conversations and personalized questions, we’ll uncover what makes your connection special. That’s how I customize my guidance for your session.

  • Stunning locations

    A place that means something to you or a stunning backdrop you’ve always dreamed of. We’ll choose a location that brings your story to life.

  • Relaxed and fun

    I’m all about the candid, natural moments that come from who you are together. Expect to laugh a lot and get your fill of cuddles.

  • Effortless planning

    Tips, guidance and support every step of the way, so you’re excited for your session and it feels natural and fun on the day.

  • Authentic in every image

    Every photo tells a piece of your story: your emotions, your connection and the little moments that make your relationship unique.

  • KATE! I AM SPEECHLESS. Not only did I expect to not have any sneak peeks before the wedding, I did not expect them to have me ugly crying while sitting in a ferry lineup. These are incredible!

Good to know

Questions couples ask me.

Anything else, just ask. There’s no such thing as too many questions.

Ask me anything

Not even slightly. Most of my clients tell me the same thing. No awkward poses, I promise: I guide you with what feels natural to the two of you, then capture the candid, natural moments that come from who you are together.

Let’s chat

Let’s make it unforgettable.

Think of it as the perfect date night: fun, memorable and completely you. Tell me a little about the two of you. No pressure and no sales pitch. Rather talk it through? Tick the box and I’ll call you instead.

“We would 1000% recommend Kate (and already have several times haha).”
