St. Louis family & Portrait Photographer

I’m a St. Louis family and portrait photographer passionate about documenting life’s milestones and everyday moments. Whether it’s welcoming a newborn, capturing the connection of a family, celebrating a senior year, or preserving the love of an engagement, I create images that reflect your story with honesty and care. My approach blends natural light and gentle direction to create photographs that feel effortless, genuine, and timeless.

Timeless, fine art family and portrait photography for couples and families in St. Louis and throughout the Midwest.

We had the pleasure of having a family shoot with our 7 month old son at home. The communication was great, but most importantly the energy that Kat brought to the shoot was the best part. We felt very comfortable, and she was very down to earth but still very professional. She had a good eye for details and also was very patient as a shoot with a baby requires. We absolutely LOVE the photos and will book her again when he is old enough to walk. Highly recommend!

Our goal is to capture the beauty in everyday moments—the quiet connection between a parent and child, the joy of growing a family, the confidence of a graduating senior, or the love shared between two people just starting their journey together. These seasons of life pass quickly, and we believe they deserve to be remembered just as intentionally as any wedding day.

As a St. Louis photography team, we’re passionate about creating a relaxed, meaningful experience for every client. We want you to feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated in front of our cameras. With a blend of natural light, gentle direction, and a storytelling approach, we preserve your memories in a way that feels authentic and timeless—so you can look back and remember not just how it looked, but how it felt.
