Your Family Deserves to Feel Seen
KATE TODD
Teacher Turned Photographer with over 6 years of Photography experience.
Let's get this picture-taking-party started.
Let’s skip the stiff poses and mandatory matching shirts, shall we? I’m here to capture your family exactly as you are—chaotic, loud, giggly, and wonderfully imperfect. I promise to bring 100% of my unfiltered, authentic self to our session, which means you and your kids have full permission to do the same! Together, we’ll ditch the "cheese" and create magic out of real, messy, beautiful moments.
Think of me as your temporary, camera-wielding family member.
Fair Warning: I don't Do boring family photos.
If you’re looking for a photographer who will politely whisper directions from the sidelines, we might not be the best match! But we are a perfect fit if you want someone who:
Brings the energy to match your kids.
Keeps it 100% real—no fake smiles, no stuffy rules, just pure authenticity.
Turns photo day into a playdate, unlocking those genuine belly laughs you love so much.
I show up as my goofy, genuine self so that you feel completely free to let your own unique family dynamic shine.
I limit the number of clients I accept so that I can pour my full heart, time, and artistry into yours. You are never just another slot on a packed calendar. From custom wardrobe styling to hand-edited artwork, your experience is entirely tailored to your family's unique story.
But my job does not end when the session is over. I believe my true purpose is to help you cross the finish line by turning your fleeting moments into tangible, heirloom artwork—without making you choose between the physical and the digital. That is why the digital files of your complete gallery are always included with your print purchases. I don't believe in withholding your precious memories. You truly get the best of both worlds.
Here is why physical prints are the heart of what I do:
Daily reminders of love: Framed artwork and custom albums are woven directly into the fabric of your home, quietly reinforcing beautiful memories every single day.
A boost in child self-esteem: When children grow up seeing their portraits displayed prominently on the walls, it fosters a profound sense of security, identity, and belonging.
Technology changes, but prints endure: Hard drives fail, USB ports become obsolete, and screens distort true color. A professionally crafted fine-art print is archival—made to be safely passed down through generations.
The magic of touch: Flipping through a heavy album with your children on your lap sparks storytelling and a shared family closeness that a digital screen simply cannot replicate.
I don't just want to give you files that sit on a computer. I want to give you heirloom artwork that your family will hold in their hands decades from now, paired with the digital peace of mind you deserve.
Kate made us feel comfortable, was wonderful with our daughter, and truly has an eye for those little candid moments that mean the most. So thankful to have these memories forever. Cannot recommend her enough!
