The woman behind the camera.

Hello!

 My name is Katie. I love many things that begin with the letter C, like, my Colombian hubby, coffee, caramel, and cameras. Just to name a few! (Just not my name. “Katherine with a K is so much more alluring than Catherine with a C. A C always looks so smug.” If you get that quote we must be kindred spirits!)

 Where to start? That’s always the hardest thing to do for me.

Let’s start with my hubby! He is from Colombia, South America and is my best friend. We met 17 years ago on a basketball court in Georgia. True story. We have been married for 14 years and have the best story. (Ask me sometime.)

I love to travel! I enjoy going to new places, meeting new people, trying new foods, and learning about different cultures. If I had an unlimited amount of money, I think I would probably travel the globe with my family for the rest of our lives. I have had the pleasure to take many adventures which have taken me to Alaska, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, Mexico, Nicaragua, Canada, Italy, England, and all across the United States.

I am a mother of two wonderful children who fill my life with absolute joy! B is my precious 11 year old girl who can sew circles around her momma and has a passion for people and learning. D is my smiling boy who doesn’t have a care in the world and always has a joke on hand. They are best friends and are truly a gift from God.

My daughter is the reason I started taking pictures. When she was one, I bought a point and shoot camera and fell in love with photography. Between the ages of 1-6 , the poor kid wouldn’t even look at me if I had a camera in my hand. 😉

I am a natural light photographer. Everything looks better outside in the right lighting! I love to play with shadows. My favorite times to shoot are cloudy days and foggy mornings! I am passionate about people and their stories. It is what drives me, I love telling a story with the pictures I take. I see more than a person when I look into the viewfinder of my camera. I see your story!
