thank you for stopping by - i'm so pumped you're here!! photography isn't just a job to me - it's also my absolute favorite hobby. if money wasn't a thing, i promise i would still be out and about taking pictures every single weekend - i love it that much. 

there's something so fun to me about getting to meet all kinds of new people and photographing them every week, so just a heads up when you book a session with me, know there's a very good chance you'll also be getting a new friend for lyfeeee 



i'm kathleen, your new third wheel and personal
hype-woman

 let's be friends

MEET

kathleen 

i'm not just a photographer

as you may or may not know, i'm a registered dental hygienist and i practice several days a week. i absolutely love being a dental hygienist, but i also love being a photographer too! 

i have always been a super creative person and have always needed ways to use the creative parts of my brain. when i was in college i got my first "nice" camera and from there i spent much of my free time teaching myself how to shoot in manual mode and practicing my new skills on my friends. 

now i'm lucky enough to be able to split my weeks doing both things i love. most people don't even have one job that they absolutely love - i am so so lucky that i get to have two.
