About – Kathy Beaver

Hey There!

i'm so glad you are here.

I’m Kathy – wedding photographer, mom of 1 daughter & 2 doodles, and avid sunset watcher. Once you’ve gotten to know a little more about me, it’ll be my turn to get to know you too!! When I work with a couple, we usually end up feeling more like old friends by the time your wedding day arrives – which means a more relaxed, enjoyable wedding day experience for everyone. And when it comes to photo style, you’ll find your photos are vibrant and classic, in true-to-life color and timeless black and white. It’s my honor to serve joyful, authentic couples who want their wedding photos to be as timeless as their vows.

Our approach

We believe you should feel comfortable, relaxed, and fully “in the moment” on your wedding day. As your wedding photography team, we’re here to help ensure you have a fabulous experience while we’re working behind the scenes to capture details you may not even notice on the day, but will love reliving through your photos in the future.

We put you first – which means we’ll know exactly which photos you have your heart set on, and we’ll design a timeline that gives us time to capture those photos. You get to celebrate your love with your brand-new spouse and all the people you love most, and we’ll make sure your photo memories tell every perfect detail of your day.

What started as my favorite hobby, turned into my dream job

I’ve always loved photography, from taking film photography classes in high school to learning digital photography once I was gifted my first digital camera. I’m a life-long learner, so I enjoy continuing to take classes even now! I built my skills from photo shoots with my daughter when she was in middle school to taking family photos for friends… and finally making the leap to weddings when a friend referred me to a couple. It was the scariest, hardest, most fun day of work ever – and I’ve never looked back!

Whenever anyone asks me about the best part of having my dream job, my answer is always the same – you! I absolutely love getting to meet beautiful couples, learning your story, and spending time together on one of the best days of your life. I’m still pinching myself and wondering “Is this real?!” – because it’s such an honor to tell your love story.
