Hello! I'm Kathleen, a passionate Wedding Photographer based in the Hudson Valley. I specialize in capturing the unique stories of each of my couples and creating beautiful memories of their special day.

I believe that photography is more than just taking pictures – it's about capturing the emotion, the beauty and the connection between two people in love. I strive to create art through my images, that tell a story and evoke emotion.

I'm a creative person, who loves being outdoors and finding new ways to capture the beauty of nature. I'm also a committed professional, dedicated to providing my couples with the best possible service and experience.

I'm passionate about my work and strive to make every single wedding special. I'm also constantly learning and growing as a photographer, to ensure that my couples receive the best images possible.

If you're looking for a wedding photographer who will make your special day truly memorable, then I'm your girl! I look forward to hearing from you and capturing your unique love story.

From the second we booked our venue I knew who I wanted to use for our photos! We have used Kathleen in the past and her and Aly do amazing work! Our wedding day was perfect and I knew while taking the pictures how beautiful they were going to be but when we got them back, they were even better than expected! Kathleen and her husband make such an amazing team and make everyone feel so comfortable and not awkward while taking pictures! It went smoothly and was she got every picture we really had to have!

Can’t get over how AMAZING our wedding photos came out. For starters, Kathleen was amazing from the second she walked in the door. So sweet, caring and easy to work with. She took all of the pics we requested and then some! She was very professional but also super down to earth. She made all of our wedding day worries disappear and we were more than impressed with the pics she took! There were so many to choose from and we loved every single one!!! We highly recommend her for any of your photography needs, for sure!
