The goal isn't perfect poses or everyone looking at the camera but rather it's creating space for real connection, movement, and the small moments that make your family yours.

my APPROACH
All of our planning comes to fruition. We'll get together and have fun hanging out — my goal is to make it feel less like an actual photoshoot and just a fun activity I happen to be tagging along for!
Shoot Day
03
I translate your questionnaire and what I have learned into a visual moodboard and inspiration for the shoot. We talk about location and outfits, and logistics for the shoot.
Creative Direction
02
This is where we learn about your family and what is important to you. I provide a questionnaire via email and I answer any questions you may have about the process.

FAMILY LIFESTYLE SESIONS
Yes! There is an option to print your images directly through the online gallery that I send with your photos. The prints are high quality and delivered straight to your door.
Do you offer printing services?
FAQ
I hand-select every image and choose the best representation from your session. These images are carefully edited and delivered to you in your gallery. You will receive plenty of photos!
Do you pick our photos, or do we?
FAQ
What do we wear?
Outfit and styling help is included with my lifestyle sessions. I love a variety of textures and coordinating pieces rather than perfectly matching outfits. I’m always happy to help you plan looks that photograph beautifully together.
FAQ
What happens if it's raining?
The PNW can be unpredictable when it comes to weather! If your session is scheduled and the forecast looks rainy, we’ll make a game-time decision about whether to move forward or reschedule.
FAQ
Absolutely! Extended family sessions take a bit more time and tend to be more posed so we can capture everyone together. I also include candid moments of each individual family as well as several images of the full group.
Do you photograph extended families?
FAQ
The Wonderly Familly
"Kate has been photographing our family for the last few years. We met at a mini session in 2022 and she immediately created such a stress free, joyful environment that the photos she captured were truly a picture into who our family was and were at that moment in time so beautifully! After that initial session we haven’t missed a year with Kate and look forward to it so much. Our sessions together have grown into more fun and creative times - her passion and excitement for what she does facilitates the most incredible family pictures that are now truly art in our home."
"Family pictures that are now truly art in our home."
The Nelson Family
"She not only makes family photoshoots incredibly easy and stress free, she also captures our family flawlessly. Bringing out each of our personalities and effortlessly getting the special inbetween moments that feel even better than a posed portrait. We’ve hired Kate again and again each year, doing shoots in two new homes, from Washington to Hawaii, her photos are true treasures."
"Kate is an absolute dream to work with."
Shainsky Family
"We are fortunate to spend some of our most precious life moments with Kate—from engagement photos to our wedding day, to baby photos with our sons, to adorable fall photo shoots as a growing family. We adore her and feel so lucky to have her capturing these special moments for our family."
