My favorite West Virginia adventures?
Rooted in the Mountains. Driven by Connection. Here for the Real Stuff.
WV ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER
Every WV elopement I capture is rooted in presence, joy, and freedom because your story deserves more than posed moments. It deserves to be felt.
I believe your photos should feel like your favorite memory: a little windswept, totally you, and full of the kind of love that makes you smile big when you look back on them.
Stargazing, geocaching, and exploring the forest with my favorite people.
I fell in love with photography at 15 and photographed my first wedding at 20. I’ve always been drawn to human connection and beautiful places, and this work lets me hold both at the same time.
These days, you’ll find me combing AllTrails for hidden gems, checking sunrise forecasts, and creating timelines that give you space to actually breathe and enjoy your day. I’m not just here to take photos. I’m here to help you feel grounded, supported, and completely present from the first email to the final gallery delivery.
Whether you’re kayaking with your closest friends or hiking to an overlook to say your vows, I’ll make sure the logistics are covered, the vibes stay high, and the memories feel just as good as they look.
Hey There,
I'm Kate!

Love looks different for everyone and that’s the best part.
Nature is sacred, and Leave No Trace isn’t optional.
Your wedding should reflect your desires, and no one else’s
Traditions are great if they’re meaningful. Otherwise? Toss ’em.
The best moments are the ones that sneak up on you.
