I aim to create a relaxed and enjoyable experience for my clients
Warmly, Katherine
WHAT TYPE OF SESSIONS DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH?
Beyond weddings and engagement sessions, I photograph as many family sessions as time allows. As a mother of two, I am passionate about preserving family memories. Do not hesitate to reach out with family photography needs, or ask to be on the list for mini-session notifications.
HOW DO YOU PREPARE FOR A WEDDING DAY?
Preparation is key and I believe that the more everyone understands the logistics of the day, the more present we can all be on the wedding day itself. I collaborate with clients (and their wedding planner) on the day-of timeline, familiarize myself with the locations (and how the light is at certain times of the day), and work hard to understand who will be surrounding you on the wedding day: bridal party, family, and loved ones.
DO YOU TRAVEL FOR WEDDINGS AND OTHER SESSIONS?
Absolutely. While based in North Carolina, I have photographed weddings in California, New York, Washington, D.C., and beyond, as well as internationally in Mykonos, Greece. I typically travel to NYC twice a year for family and engagement sessions.
WHAT IS THE BOOKING PROCESS?
I require a signed contract and 50% deposit to book. The remaining 50% is due two weeks before the wedding date. Everything can be completed securely online.
WHAT VENUES DO YOU WORK WITH MOST OFTEN?
I photograph most often at the Merrimon-Wynne House in Raleigh, NC, and Duke Gardens and Bay in Durham, NC. I have photographed weddings all throughout North Carolina, and beyond.
HOW MANY HOURS OF PHOTOGRAPHY COVERAGE DO I NEED?
The most common amount of coverage is nine hours. There are weddings where I shoot as little as six hours of coverage (in this scenario, I typically do not stay through the exit), or up two twelve hours (usually this involves an early ceremony and therefore longer day overall).
WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY IMAGES?
As per the contract, wedding day images are delivered within 6-8 weeks from the wedding date; engagement and family session images are delivered within 2-3 weeks from the session date.
HOW MUCH DO YOUR WEDDING COLLECTIONS COST?
Wedding day collections begin at $4,000, which include coverage by Katherine and an assistant photographer. Please contact for a full pricing guide.
