I highly recommend Kat! We were looking for someone within our budget but can still deliver high quality photos and videos that we’d be proud to share with our families, friends, and children to come. We loved our time with her during the engagement shoot that we wanted to bring her along as the videographer for our wedding ceremony. She was lovely, punctual, and responsive and the output was really a standout, tugged our heartstrings and tear ducts. Like wow. She was able to bring out the essence of our special day and the feelings we had. Thank you again Kat!

"Kat took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we could not be happier with her work, she has a real gift! She took time to plan all the sessions to levels far beyond our expectations. The video she put together was also very sweet, and she turned everything around so quickly. Could not recommend her more!"

"We recently had Kat photograph our wedding celebration dinner and she was absolutely amazing, I can't recommend her enough. She's so personable and from the moment she arrived she was super professional. She gave direction when it was needed whilst also remaining inconspicuous. We got our photos 2 days after the event and they were all so fantastic. She caught some brilliant candid moments whilst also some great posed family shots. I would use her again and highly recommend her! Thank you Kat!"
