Testimonials
I cannot recommend Kate enough! Her artistic views, amazing personality and her overall calmness in high stress situations are just a few reasons we will be booking photos with her again. And I haven't even spoken to the absolutely stunning photos....and to be honest, the photos left me speechless and still have. They look like they are out of a magazine!

We couldn't be happier with our photos, from the couple shots and bridal party pics to the fun dance shots and candids of our family during the ceremony, Kate captured our entire wedding day so perfectly. We feel like we get to relive the day every time we look through the album!

Your life is yours to live to the truest you possibly can. Creating memories every chance you get with the people you love most. Wether you choose my to document these moments or not, i encourage you to not take any single moment for granted! Your wedding day will pass in a blink of an eye and your life with your partner and your family will change so many times throughout the years that it's easy to forget the chubbiness of your kids cheeks, how little they used to be and even how small their hands are in yours. Don't ever miss these moments. They will take your breathe away when you've forgotten them and have these images to remind you

Testimonials
Oooooh Kate, I just melted into a huge puddle of hearts!!!! ❤ This gallery gives us all the feels I can’t even describe it! The Salt flats and monument building are a level of magic I can’t even describe and everything we wanted that road trip to be. The salt flats are INSANE! ❤ I’m SO OBSSESSSED!!! ❤ Thank you for travelling with us to create this magic. Just looking at a photo of the salt on it’s own gives me goosebumps, I’m so happy we decide to take the adventure!

Nuvola & David

Adventurous madly in love babes
Kate is such a talent and warm lady! It was the best decision we’ve made for our wedding! Thing went so smooth and she is so down to detailed!! She even gave me a call a night before my wedding to confirm everything, and the next day when I arrived at the venue, she was already there waiting for me! ❤️ If you are still hesitating, trust me and all other reviewers, she worths it!

Helen & Jason

New Mr & Mrs
Such an incredible experience! Kate is so much fun, light, friendly, and makes you feel so comfortable. As two people who don't like having our photos taken, Kate made us feel like there was no camera there at all and we were all just joking around, which made the photos come out looking so natural and exactly what we wanted!

Alanna & Tom

One of the biggest things I tell my couples?Slow. One of the biggest things I tell my couples?Slow. Down.

Not just for the sake of your memories—but so you can be truly present in the moment and we can capture them for you.

✨ Take your time walking down the aisle
✨ Don’t rush that first kiss
✨ Hold your dad a little longer
✨ Swirl your wine an extra second
✨ Look around and let it land

These tiny moments are everything. They fly by in a blink—but when you pause, when you breathe, we’re able to catch:
– The emotion in your eyes
– The tear on someone’s cheek
– The laughter from just out of frame
– The wide shots and the quiet close-ups

We move quickly behind the lens—but sometimes, our couples move even faster.

So here’s your gentle reminder: slow down and savor.

You’re not just living the moment—you’re giving us a chance to freeze it, forever.
Wind in the veil, champagne in hand, hearts racing Wind in the veil, champagne in hand, hearts racing.
 You’re still in the middle of the day, but these are the photos that will take you right back every time.
It’s been a while—so if you’re new here, hi! It’s been a while—so if you’re new here, hi! I’m Kate, the girl behind the lens (always tea in hand, never coffee). I’m a photographer based in Abbotsford and traveling all across BC to capture weddings, families, and all the love stories in between.

My heart is in the unposed, unscripted, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it kind of moments. The real laughs. The tight squeezes. The wind-in-your-hair kind of magic that tells your story in a way that actually feels like you.

If you’re planning something special or just love timeless, feel-good photos—stick around. You’re in the right place.

👉🏻 This new dress coming soon to my client closet! Who wants to capture some beauty in it with me??
Getting ready photos? They’re not just makeup to Getting ready photos? They’re not just makeup touch-ups and dress zips.
They’re the quiet glances, deep breaths, and little moments that mark the shift from “fiancé” to “bride.”

You might wonder—is it really worth capturing these parts of the day?
Here’s my honest take:

PROS:
→ It’s a slow, gentle start to a big day
→ Emotions are fresh and real
→ You’re surrounded by your people—your closest circle
→ The details shine (rings, perfume, florals, heirlooms)

CONS:
→ Honestly? There aren’t many.

If we plan your timeline with intention, this part becomes one of the most meaningful chapters of the day.
