What the brides say:
"LOVE Katie!"
...it was just an instant connection. Katie is so skilled and so lovely with which to work. The bride was THRILLED with her photos and with the entire experience and I felt truly lucky to gain, not only a new fabulous photographer, but a new friend as well. Katie is just wonderful and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
-Catie

Got Questions??
I'm having a traditional large wedding but want to save money, can I hire you?
If you've spent the money and time on a large wedding, I truly encourage you to spend the money and time on hiring a dedicated wedding photographer to document all the beautiful details you've planned. I can recommend some of the best wedding photographers in the area.
That said, if I can't convince you to hire a traditional wedding photographer, than sure, why the hell not? Just know that 2-3 hours of photography is not going to be enough time to get all those 'spray-tanned bridesmaids getting ready with satin robes and champagne' must-have shots.
Do you do destination weddings?
As long as the destination includes a large body of water I'm in :) Jk jk of course I love to travel so just reach out with the details and we can go from there!
How and when do I pay?
Do you offer any discounts?
To book your wedding and hold your date, pay a $300 deposit online with a credit card. Pay the rest no later than the day of your wedding with a credit card online or with cash/check in person.
I proudly support military and offer Active Duty, Veterans, Reserve, Guard, and their immediate family 10% weddings. Just let me know when you book and I will apply the discount to the session remainder.
When will I get my goodies?
I typically have your gallery, story & wedding album ready in 4 weeks. However, in peak seasons, I may need 1-2 weeks more.
Shipping times for prints and photo products ordered directly from your Shop and Share Gallery vary, but typically, you should receive your order within 1-2 weeks. Albums take 1-2 weeks after sending to print.
Don't worry; I will update you with our timeline as we go!
Speaking of small weddings...
Here we are, walking out of our "reception" at the old Bravo.
Josh took me there on our first date. So when we decided to skip the big wedding and go small, Bravo was the perfect place to feed 40 of our closest family and friends after our quick morning ceremony. We were young, in love, and in a hurry to start our lives together.
We didn't have Pinterest or social media yet, so we didn't feel pressured to have the perfect wedding. Josh wore his blues, and I wore a satin white dress that my mom and I had found at a random hippy store in the Dayton Mall. I ordered a simple gardenia bouquet—a nod to my Nanny, who had passed away—and we decorated the altar with purple gladiola bouquets.
A good friend agreed to take our wedding pictures with her film camera for only $200! Our honeymoon was a 3-night stay in Columbus before Josh swept me away to Omaha, Nebraska, where he was to be stationed.
Looking back now, after photographing quite a few glorious high-end weddings, I can see how simple and even somewhat shabby ours really was.
At the time though, it was all incredibly romantic, so even if I had the chance to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing...
