what’s up!

i’m katie.

You can usually find me in my living room jamming out and dancing around to a good alternative rock, metal, or throwback pop punk band. Any Taking Back Sunday or The Used fans in here?

Fiercely nostalgic and sentimental, I have a strong desire to capture life’s precious moments - both big and small - through artistic mediums I’m able to look back on. I feel everything very deeply, especially when it comes to my work. When I edit a gallery, my goal is to make you feel something. I want it to take you back to that moment in time, with a rush of emotions. At the end of the day, all we have are memories - and I’m here to translate those memories into art.

Lover of sloths, live music, a good glass of wine, and my little fur baby Benji.

Creative soul & deep life talk connoisseur - let’s be friends.

 

EVERY STORY IS UNIQUE, LET ME HELP YOU TELL YOUR STORY.

With the choice of dozens of photographers, it can be overwhelming choosing the right one for you. It all boils down to skill, talent and a photographic style that suits you. Although these are important, it's not just about the final product, it's about enjoying the experience too. 

 

Together, we will create a session based on the unique needs of your family. I will direct you, but I will not "pose" you. Keeping it relaxed allows me to capture you exactly as you are

My philosophy is, you can never re-live this moment again. Why waste it? You’re engraving a part of your life for yourself, and others to see. Your children and loved ones can look back on this moment years from now and cherish it just as much as you did. I find serenity in the fact that I can contribute an eternal memory for you, and your family, to have forever.

 

I love, love. Always have, always will. I love meeting new people who welcome me into their lives to photograph their big, and little moments. The way I view souls through my camera is the way I see life: beautiful, raw, and full of potential. To be a part of someone's milestone and capture their memories has been the greatest experience of my life. What an amazing exchange I get to be part of every time I use my camera.

 

From the big milestones to the art of everyday life, these are moments worth documenting and I am here to do that for you.

 fun facts.

i'm an intp + infp, which basically means "you are neither an absolute Thinker nor an absolute Feeler. it’s more accurate to say that you are a bit of both Thinker and Feeler: you tend to use both styles in processing information, and you may switch from one to the other depending on the demands of your environment."
so, essentially, i’m a cross between two personality types. Which means I can usually relate to anyone.

i can sing the alphabet backwards, super fast. i can also rap any busta rhymes song word for word. it’s my party trick.

i went to the ontario conservatory of music for 5+ years and i can still play the piano. MUSIC IS A HUGE PART OF MY LIFE. GROWING UP WITH A FATHER THAT WAS A MUSICIAN, IT'S ENGRAVED IN MY SOUL. i play THE PIANO by ear. which IS PRETTY COOL.
  
CONCERTS AND LIVE MUSIC ARE MY ESCAPE. IT'S THE PLACE I GO WHEN I NEED TO SHUT THE WORLD OFF FOR A LITTLE BIT. MUSIC HITS DIFFERENTLY FOR ME, AND I'M HAPPIEST WHEN I'M WATCHING ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ROCK BANDS LIVE ON STAGE. TOTAL CONCERT JUNKIE FOR SURE. 

psst - i’d love to get to know you too.
