ABOUT

As a mom of two, I know how fast these moments fly - which is why I now focus exclusively on Maternity, Newborn, and Families.

Inspired by my own children, I’m dedicated to capturing the beautiful start of your family's legacy. I’d be honored to be your photographer.

HI - I'M KATIE - Your family's story is a work of art.
I’m here to make sure it lasts forever.

Little

From wedding aisles to nursery rocking chairs,
I’ve spent my career documenting love.

I love living in Parker, Colorado!
 This is me with my husband of 14 years, Dave, and our two creative,
funny kids, Macy & Owen 
 (who humor me every year when it's
time to take family photos.)

Besides being your
photographer I am a...

Usually found perfecting your images while the rest of the world is dreaming.

I’ve learned that the "messy" moments
are usually the most meaningful ones.

If you need outfit coordination help,
I’ve likely already "pre-shopped" it for you!

Purely for research purposes, of course.

Hi - I'm Katie

these are some of my favorite Photo moments

The golden hour glow
that wraps its light
around a happy family

A new set
of tiny pink
baby toes 

Late morning light that shines softly into a
baby's nursery 

The way an older
sibling loves on
"their" new baby

The quiet moments
between a new 
mom and dad

mom and dad

these are some of my favorite Photo moments

Capturing amazing moments became my calling in 2001, and I haven’t put the camera down since. From my early days working in a traditional film lab to my time as a freelance photojournalist, I have dedicated my career to documenting the most meaningful chapters of life.                 
I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Photography in 2005 and then gained 10 years of experience as a wedding photographer shooting all over Colorado.   
After having my children, Newborns and Families became my singular focus.
I believe your family's story is also a work of art, and I use my twenty plus years of expertise to ensure your memories feel as vibrant and real on your walls as they did in the moment.

a few things I am             for

thankful

Family photos are my jam -
- and my greatest treasures.
 Having printed images on the walls of my home reminds me to be thankful
for my own story. These people and moments are what I am most grateful for.

 I love to be home - it is my happy place -  
but traveling truly gets me inspired! 
Whether it is snowboarding in the mountains, traveling to a beach or taking a road trip - experiences are my favorite way to spend time.  
I am thankful for all of the things learned along the way.

I was born on my Great Aunt Rose's Birthday.
She was my Grandmother's closest sister and very special to me.
Many women in my family proudly share this middle name and
I cherished it enough to use it in my business name and
pass it on to my daughter, Macy Rose. 

In 2009 I was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer.
Newly married and excited about the future, it was the last thing I expected. I am now 10 years cancer-free and donate a portion of each session to the Thyroid Cancer Association of America.

My favorite tradition - as a family we make hundreds of Christmas cookies each year. I eat WAY too many
(luckily we give most of them away)
My parents even helped me make 500 of them the week
of my wedding for our guests to take home.
 I am always so grateful to be able to spend time with my family
as we continue this tradition with my children.
