Meet kathleen

A little about me

Located in the lower Hudson Valley, New York serving the tri-state area including the Catskills, NYC, and beyond. I'm a huge fan of Kodak film, big hugs, and letting art unfold.

I'm committed to giving you an experience that feels organic, authentic, while still delivering your story with an artistic eye.

I've been told that working with me is like being wrapped up in a warm blanket, and that the most memorable part is how I made my clients feel.

My philosophy

My philosophy is simple. Your wedding day shouldn't feel like one long photoshoot.

I strive for photos that feel bespoke, dreamy, and authentic without disrupting your experience. I give gentle guidance for those editorial shots, pull you in the best light for portraits, and then step back and let the day unfold as it was meant to be. You should feel present, while having coverage that is tailored to you and your partner.

what inspires me

I'm inspired by connection, curiosity, soft light and colors, finding the story in the chaos. I love places and people that feel like time capsules of an era we can no longer live in. I want your photos to feel like a hazy dream, a milestone lived in, an heirloom of connection.

My style is candid, true to color, with a hybrid of both film and digital, and I always invite the light to join the party.

When I'm not shooting, you can find me with my two daughters, tending to my flock of chickens, and cozying up to my muppet-looking dog, Atticus.

If you're into thrifting, collecting records,  all things Halloween, or David Lynch, we are going to be fast friends.

I love people; I truly find my energy in the connections and friendships I form, which is why I love what I do so much.
