Hello!
I am a dog loving mama with a passion for photography. I first saw the beauty of life through a lens back in high-school. I began learning the most basic elements of film by capturing black and white images and developing them in a dark room. Since then, photography has enabled me to show others the beauty of the world through an image that can be captured in an instant. I have traveled to Africa, Germany, and Paris, and photographed everything from PGA championships, to my personal favorite, real life and real love. I feel most at home transforming everyday glimpses of true affection and moments of raw happiness into eternal memories through photography. Three years ago, I lost my husband and it felt as if the camera I had seen life through for so long had reverted back to black and white. Since then I have learned to use my photography to secure life-long memories in vibrant realism. As I bring color and beauty to the lives of others, I return a little bit of that color and beauty to my own life. Sometimes what you see is what you get, but if you look through the right lens, what you see is truly something amazing.

" Kathleen was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Our engagement photos turned out wonderfully and made us so comfortable going into the wedding day. When we arrived, I was running a bit late getting out of makeup, but she completely made up the time through our bridal party photos after the first look because she is so organized and moves through the photos in such a decisive manner. Her enthusiasm spreads to the entire group during group photos as well and makes the entire experience enjoyable. My mom told me after how everywhere she looked it seemed like she saw Kathleen snapping away once the reception started! We loved that she captures sincere moments throughout the night, and after our preview, I am on the edge of my seat to see the rest! "
