fun facts
I have been doing photography for over 10 years and started with my mom’s vintage film camera in high school!
I will dance on your dance floor.
I love Star Wars (except movies 7-9). Check out my camera harness when we work together!
My long-term dream is to own a retreat style wedding venue.

Although we are originally from New Hampshire, we are proud to call the state of Montana home. Not only do we cover Livingston, Bozeman, Paradise Valley, Big Sky, Billings, Butte, Helena, Red Lodge, and Yellowstone National Park, we are adventurers at heart and happy to travel to meet you in your dream location. Check out the elopements page to see our upcoming travel schedule and bucket list locations!
Your wedding day is a big deal to me. With my experience in both weddings and elopements, as well as the need (a compulsion really) to provide top quality work, I want to help you create your dream day. I capture my couples in a way that shows who they are and what their relationship looks like. I want to provide you an enjoyable, authentic, and truly meaningful experience!
My fiancé and I live with our chocolate lab in Livingston, MT, and are planning our own elopement/micro wedding for 2024! Hiking, dirt biking, travelling, snowboarding, thrifting things that do not fit in our house, and thinking I can easily pick up a new hobby every time something interests me are all a part of who I am. If you bring your dog to your wedding and play 80s remixes or 2000s pop punk, we can be best friends.

company values
Meaningful, Quality Work
I want your images to evoke the emotions of your wedding day every time you look back through them. A timeless, true-to-life edit means they will never go out of style, and a mix of details, real moments, and storytelling will showcase your relationship. Lastly, meticulous editing means your gallery will have a cohesive look with high quality photos.
Inclusivity
Who you love and how you want to marry them will not impact how I work with you. It doesn’t matter to me the gender of your partner, whether you want a religious ceremony or not, or where you come from, I keep my business open to anyone. I am happy to capture your love and the traditions you wish to include on your day!
Integrity
My business is more than simply my job. I have built something that I am truly proud of and want to continue to be proud of every day. I am honest, am there when you need help or guidance, and am ready to do what I can to help you love your day. I also believe in caring for these beautiful places I get to work in, and practice Leave No Trace.

↟ These are a few of my favorite trips! ↟
My partner and I hired Katie to do a couples adventure photoshoot. We are not engaged or eloping, but love the way she captures couples and wanted to try it for ourselves. And it was everything I could ask for. I get quite silly when I know a camera is pointed my direction, and my partner usually freezes up. But Katie was so patient and let us get all our giggles out and captured some gorgeous mountaintop pics.
What’s even more amazing is how prepared she was. She had more than one location to work with, picked the day when the weather was just right, provided feedback on what to wear (and what not to wear), and kept having us pose in ways that felt so natural and helped us both relax. Thanks again Katie for such a stress-free and amazing experience.
