Family and event photographer based in Portland, Oregon, capturing the everyday joy of your life — before the simple moments pass you by.

Hi! I’m Katie

I’ve been taking photos ever since I was first introduced to my Grandpa Ed’s in-home dark room as a young girl. The moment I picked up his old Canon camera, I was inspired to document the subtle, beautiful moments of life before they became a fleeting memory.

To me, nostalgia is everything. I've traveled the world and collected countless experiences, but it's the memories of my childhood—days spent with my family at home—that bring me the most warmth and comfort. Looking back at those moments, captured in old photographs, I’m reminded of the joy that shaped me.

That feeling is what inspires my work today: the drive to preserve the fleeting beauty in everyday life and help others hold on to their own moments of joy.
