I'm Kate, and I've spent over a decade photographing the moments that matter most to families across Northern Colorado and the San Francisco Bay Area. My work has been recognized nationally, but what I'm most proud of is that my clients say their galleries feel less like photos and more like a memory.

What People Are Saying

  • Kate’s work truly is a cut above the standard, even for the Bay Area, where there are lots of talented family photographers.

    I feel like I have her artwork hanging on my walls, rather than family portraits. She has great location ideas, is a pro at wrangling rambunctious kiddos, and puts everyone at ease. Her photos will be treasured forever. -Susanna

  • All I can say is we found our forever family photographer!!!

    I love how Kate captured our family so authentically and, of course, beautifully. Kate is incredibly talented, and her photos are genuine and absolutely stunning. She is down-to-earth, fun, kind, and made us feel so comfortable. I felt like we had known her for years :) She was also there to support us every step of the way. Kate is the real deal, and we'll be recommending her to anyone and everyone!!! -Jenni

  • Thank you so much for the beautiful photos!
