Metro Detroit

Family & Newborn Photographer

Call me Kate!

Coffee-reheating, magic-loving mama of three, photographer, and storyteller based in Michigan.

I do this for my kids—to show them that dreams are worth chasing. They don’t fully understand yet, but one day, I want them to say:

"Damn, that artist is my mama!"

Every session is a creative exchange, filled with energy, love, and trust. The most rewarding part of my work? Showing a mom, even for a fraction of a second, how amazing she is.

Let’s create something beautiful together.

Capturing the Magic in Your Beautiful Chaos

Motherhood is a whirlwind—messy, hilarious, and utterly magical. The days are long, but the years fly by, and in between, the little details fade too fast. I’m here to help you slow down and savor those imperfect, real moments.

A Photo Experience That Feels Like Home

Imagine a session that feels like hanging out with an old friend—relaxed, natural, and full of love. No stiff poses, no pressure—just you, your family, and the moments you never want to forget.

You’re in the Right Place If:

✔️ You want photos that feel real, not staged.
✔️ You crave images that capture your family's authentic story—not just the polished moments.
✔️ You wonder, “What will I miss about this season of life?”—the chubby fingers, the bedtime giggles, the quiet, fleeting moments that make it all worth it.

This is where I come in. I’ll be your friend with a camera, noticing the beauty in your everyday chaos and preserving it forever.

Let’s Capture the Magic in Your Mess

Whether you’re welcoming a new baby, chasing toddlers through the house, or simply celebrating the love that makes your family yours, I’m here to document it all.
