The name is Katy!

My Goal...

I strive to be the photographer that is there when you get engaged, when you walk down that aisle and when you begin building your own family, two or four legged! ;) I am YOUR photographer to capture your life’s memories and have been doing so for close to a decade now!

Summer Mini's

Summer mini sessions are short, relaxed sessions held on select dates at beach and park locations across Virginia Beach and Chesapeake.

These are perfect for families, couples, and updated portraits without the commitment of a full session. Each session is designed to be quick, easy, and focused on natural connection with light guidance throughout.

Spots are limited and tend to book quickly, so early booking is recommended.

Katy goes above and beyond no matter what type of photoshoot you have booked her services for. She listens to what you vision and puts her own creative twist to it. 3 out of 4 kids so far have had the honors of her photographing them and all 3 shoots have fallen no less than AMAZING. 10/10 RECOMMEND
