Hello! I’m Katie…. that’s me in the sea taking photographs of one of my lovely couples.. I don’t get to go in the sea at sunset at many weddings so as you can see I was in my element!

If you’ve come to this page then you’d like to know a little more about me…

I like drinking coffee (I’ll have mine with Oatly Barista thanks!) I like being outdoors, hiking, camping, exploring nature. I love road trips and spending time with all the people I love. I’m a big kid, and love mini-golf, adventure playgrounds and having a paddle at the beach. I’m known for wearing bright clothes and a huge smile. In contrast I love reading crime fiction & thrillers….

I’ve recently started collecting house plants, it’s a bit of an addiction…ooops.

I love shopping second hand, pottering around charity shops and the like. I try to live my life as eco-friendly as possible.

I’ve been into photography for 18 years, since my first trip to the darkroom at college…. with 13 years experience as a wedding photographer.

I love animals, I especially love if pets are involved in your wedding! I’m guilty of binge watching weird documentaries on Netflix. I’m also a fan of watching Gentleman Jack, Outlander, Schitts Creek, and Greys Anatomy.

I’m a Yorkshire lass, and moved back here 4 years ago, after spending 12 years in Newcastle!!

From my daughter being 3 months old until 4 years old, I juggled single parenting alongside with my photography business…(& the pandemic!)

I now live in South Yorkshire, in between Barnsley & Sheffield. In August 2022 I married my partner, Holly. We had a wonderful, family-orientated, DIY wedding at Underbank Chapel, near Sheffield. (Im the one with the green dress!) My wedding photographs were taken by the fab Jaye at Tux and Tales Photography.

I’m so lucky to have had the opportunity to create a blended family. We spend most of our days juggling work & the crazy kids ….being outside, dancing in the kitchen, and trying to wean the kids off watching Paw Patrol. For me, life is about the little moments, having fun, being silly and taking chances, especially to create the life you want with people you love.

Now you know a bit more about me, let me tell you what I love most about my job!

I love the moment that you two first see each other, the smile, the glances..the giggles you get during the ceremony. I love it when you really focus on each other during your vows and say them with meaning.

I love the speeches, especially the funny ones, even the sad ones….. and I love hearing about how you met or got engaged.

I love capturing the interaction between you, and your family and friends.

And of course, I love cake. Who doesn’t love cake?

When you book me for your wedding, you should know that I’m honest, chatty, down to earth and that I absolutely adore my job.

If you’re getting married and care more about the laughs, the love and the emotion, rather than what colour the napkins are…. I might just be the right photographer for you……drop me a message for a chat!
