“Kate was such a pleasure to work with. From the moment I had my initial call with her, I knew she was our photographer. She is the type of person who you instantly feel comfortable with, like she has been your friend for ages. I think that’s a super special quality to have in a photographer.
I was nervous because I struggled with photographers giving me direction and have found it difficult to just relax in front of the camera. But I was able to totally lean into the experience during our wedding day and felt 100% myself.”
— Kayla
Kate (she / they)’s journey into the Victoria BC photography world began in a high school darkroom 15 years ago. She became passionate about elevating people’s self-image as well as capturing the energy of special moments.
At university, she studied contemporary and studio photography as a part of her Bachelor of Arts in Geography (Urban, Community, Sustainable Planning).
She approaches her coverage with a grounded, playful sense of humour, warm professionalism, and a focused approach to our time together.
To date, Kate’s been featured in Rocky Mountain Bride, and was a finalist for the group photo category for the Vancouver Island Wedding Awards in 2022.
When she’s not at a wedding, she can be found in a dance class or kitchen trying out a new recipe, skiing Whistler in the winters where her own parent’s love story began, or attending a day or two of a music festival.
She’s a night owl by nature, and her mornings start slow – she splits her office time between her heritage home office and cycling to my favourite local coffee shops.
LET’s CONNECT
