Hey!

I’m Kate

MOM, WIFE, AND YOUR WEDDING DAY STORYTELLER
I’m a proud mom to two amazing kids, wife to my best friend, and someone who believes life’s best moments deserve to be captured beautifully. When I’m not adventuring with my family or soaking up cozy, love-filled days at home, I’m behind the camera, documenting stories that matter. My journey to professional photography began over a decade ago with a simple love for capturing moments. Five years ago, I finally took the leap, letting go of fear and sharing my work with the world—and I’ve never looked back. Since then, I’ve poured my heart into this craft, transforming a passion into a career that connects me with incredible couples. From the butterflies of “I do” to the quiet, meaningful glances, I live for the magic of weddings. Capturing your day is so much more than a job—it’s an honour. Let’s create something timeless together!

Remembering your story, one image at a time

Behind the scenes looking at a bridal photo session with Kate Paterson Photography

Emotional photography for the madly in love!

What sets me apart from

other

photogs...

It wasn’t until I was deep into my business that I realized it’s not just a skill with a camera that makes a great photographer—it’s everything else you pour into the experience. Every booking, every interaction and every detail contributes to how clients feel from start to finish.

While my camera has become second nature to me, I’ve spent years perfecting the entire experience for my clients. From tailored questionnaires and detailed guides to providing the information that eases the stress on your wedding day, every step is designed with you in mind.

I’ve fine-tuned my process to ensure that from the moment we connect until long after your wedding day, everything runs smoothly and you can enjoy the journey.

My goal isn’t just to capture this special time in your life but to make the entire experience unforgettable—because I’m right there with you, making every moment even better

Capturing your story <3

Wedding, couples, family, just because sessions… whatever your season, we will create magic for you. We’ll capture your story and you’ll remember every detail <3

your love

in every

photo!

On the shoot

Here’s what I can promise you with every session:

  1. Your emotions—love, laughter, and everything in between—will shine through in every image.
  2. It will be stress-free! From questionnaires to guides, I provide everything you need to feel supported. I won’t push anything on you but I’ll be there to guide you every step of the way, ensuring we capture everything you’ve envisioned.
  3. You’ll have an absolute blast and never, ever feel uncomfortable in front of my camera.

We’ll laugh, joke, and have fun. You’ll snuggle up with your person(s) and the moments will be so genuinely you that it’ll feel more like an epic night out or the day of your dreams.

Real

Every image in your gallery will capture the real, unfiltered personalities of you, your family and your guests—genuine moments that truly reflect who you are.

Raw

We’ll capture more than just the beautiful details—we’ll freeze the real, raw moments too: the laughter in your friends’ eyes, the tears on your cheeks and that unforgettable first glance of each other on your wedding day. Every single moment holds something incredibly powerful that tells your story, one moment at a time.

True

I’ll always be there to guide you when needed, blend into the background when the moment calls for it and break the tension with a little humour if it gets too heavy. All of this, paired with timeless editing, ensures everything stays true to you.

For the

madly in love

+ forever afters

Cass & Ziggy✨ Their wedding at Poets Cove was e Cass & Ziggy✨

Their wedding at Poets Cove was everything a small wedding should be—intimate, full of laughter, and wrapped in the love of their closest family and friends. ✨

From the gentle island breeze to the heartfelt vows, every moment felt personal and perfectly theirs. Small weddings have a way of making the love and joy feel even bigger, and being there to capture it all was an absolute dream.

Angela & Baron ✨ Golden hour in Stanley Park is Angela & Baron ✨

Golden hour in Stanley Park is already breathtaking… but pair it with Angela and Baron celebrating their soon-to-be “I do’s” and it becomes unforgettable.

The quiet trails, the glow over the ocean, and those little pre-wedding butterflies—it was all there. A session like this is the perfect pause in preparation for the big day, a way to soak up the anticipation and capture the excitement before stepping into forever.
Nakisha + Will There’s just something about the Nakisha + Will

There’s just something about the city at sunset—the hum of the streets below, the skyline glowing, and the two of you in your own little world on a rooftop above it all. ✨

Nakisha and Will’s engagement session felt like pure magic—intimate, bold, and filled with laughter that carried across the skyline.
