I've been a Birmingham portrait photographer specializing in family, maternity, and newborn photography for over 10 years. I’ve had the honor of capturing families across the Southeast—from Birmingham, Florence, Huntsville, Auburn, and Tuscaloosa to Nashville and Memphis.
I’m a wife, mom, photographer, beauty business owner, and friend—and I truly love serving others through my creative work. I’m based in Hoover, just outside Birmingham, and available for travel wherever your story takes us.
My work is rooted in connection—images that feel alive, full of contrast, and layered with a bit of mood. I'm drawn to the beauty in the everyday, but I also love the creative process of bringing a vision to life.
From choosing outfits and finding the right setting to considering the light and overall feel of your session, I'll help bring the details together in a way that feels distinctly yours. During our time together, I'll offer direction when you need it and space for the real moments to unfold.
I'll offer direction when you need it and space for the real moments to unfold. While we'll make time for a few beautiful, intentional portraits, my heart is in the movement, connection, and in-between moments that tell your family's story. The result is a collection that feels both artful and honest—portraits you'll want framed on your walls and candid moments that belong together in an album.
I'm experienced in working with natural light in all environments, including clients' homes, creating images that feel both elevated and honest.
All that to say—you’re in the right place. I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to hear your story!
Thoughtfully planned photography with an editorial eye and a personal touch.

eauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I enjoy nothing more than showing my clients the beauty in every moment.
I want you to remember it all - the simple, the extravagant, and everything in-between. And I want you to feel comfortable and to have a great time making these memories.
Look, I get it - being in front of a camera can be intimidating and feel awkward. I'll be your guide from the very beginning, helping bring your vision together before the session and making you feel comfortable once we're together.. Just follow my lead and you will get amazing images full of emotion.
We'll make time for a few beautiful portraits, but the rest doesn't have to feel like posing. We'll play games, maybe even sing and dance. I'll crack jokes, and we might even play a song about these fleeting moments that gets you teary-eyed.
My goal is to help you see yourself and your family in the beautiful light you deserve.
Trust me, you're in the right place.
believe the most meaningful photographs begin with getting to know the people in them.
Maybe you've been dreaming of a session in a beautiful field at golden hour, or a slow morning at home with your family. Maybe you've saved inspiration for months, or maybe you just know how you want your photographs to feel.
That's where I come in.
I love the creative process of bringing a vision to life—from choosing outfits and finding the perfect setting to considering the light, colors, and little details that make everything feel cohesive and personal.
And when the day arrives, you won't have to worry about what to do in front of the camera. I'll guide you when you need it, make room for the moments that unfold naturally, and pay attention to the little things that make your family who they are.
Kate took my family newborn pictures when my youngest was born. I also had a 2-year-old at the time, which you can imagine made it much more complicated. Kate never got frustrated with the chaos and never made me feel rushed when the photoshoot took longer than expected due to nursing breaks, diaper changes, and the nature of a "terrible twos" toddler. The pictures that Kate took were incredible. She captured all of our personalities perfectly and I will treasure these pictures forever. In addition to the amazing photos, Kate is an absolute JOY to be around, and you will feel so loved the entire time.

We’ve had multiple photography sessions with Kate and they’ve all been fabulous! Each time we have so much fun with her and each other getting the photos taken and then receiving the final photos is even more fun!! She has a sweet soul and a deeply caring heart that she clearly pours into all her of work. Her editing style is also very beautiful. I can’t wait to hire her again!

Kate was amazing! She was laid back and patient taking pictures of our family (newborn and toddler). The shots were exactly what I wanted and I could not believe how she got so many pictures that looked perfect when there was a toddler tantrum happening. She perfectly captured what season our family is in right now.
