So much more than taking pictures...

I shoot with the concept and culture that beauty is everywhere. My passion is to see it, capture it, and reflect it back. My job as a photographer is not just my job. Your images are an expression of you and what you love about life and, most importantly, about yourself.

Montana High School Senior Photographer

What time of year is your favorite for a high school senior photoshoot?

The most common is summer and fall but winter is beautiful as well. I travel!

How many hours will you want to shoot for?

What or who will you want to bring to your photoshoot?  

I offer on epackage and it is a 2-3 hour shoot. I have found that is just the right amounto f time to get comfortable in front of the camera, get all the locations and outfits covered and not wear you out completely. All of my seniors are usually still excited to keep shooting  even after hour three is over! I offer a kicker session that usually lasts about an hour to incorporate a different season.

Some suggestions would be, a pet, horse, cow, pig, musical instrument, brother or sister or best friend, family heirlooms, such as grandpa's spurs, or your mom's pearl necklace that she wore during her senior pictures.

A few questions

Choosing a photographer is the best place to start. I am honored that you are here and considering working together. High school seniors are some of my favorite people to work with. My goal, is that you walk away feeling exquisite, inspired, and deeply beautiful. Your pictures will reflect that. So, that’s my job. And your job is to sit back, relax and come along for the ride! Because we are going to make this a most memorable experience.

There are so many decisions when it comes planning your high school senior photoshoot to your. I'M here to walk you through every aspect.

"Ok, seriously...thank you is not even remotely the right words to use to express my gratitude to you! MY PICTURES! Oh my Lawd!!! 

You know...as girls we tend to be extremely critical of ourselves...and I was no different. I kept imagining my pictures to be one way and worried that maybe my expectations were too high and I would be disappointed (not in your photography skills, but in the subject of the pictures). Well, I WASN'T!!! It was an experience I will NEVER forget, and it has definitely taught me to be less critical of myself! Looking through the lens of the camera versus looking into a mirror showed me two totally different people! Thank you for spending an afternoon with me and coaxing me out of my comfort zone!!!
I just think you're the most down-to-earth, genuine, talented, salt of the Earth person I know! I will forever be thankful!

Montana based photographer capturing heart-centered moments for the horsey girls with a heart for the country life. Documenting the beauty of rural life with a fluid, natural, emotional style.
Being a high school senior photographer in Montana has given me an opportunity to experience some of the most unbelievable landscapes that mostly remain undiscovered. The majority of my clients are generation farmers and ranchers with a heart for their land an animals that they share their life with. Love is built from the foundation of trust and respect with a heart for family and preserving the lifestyle that Montana has to offer.

HOW MANY OUTFITS CAN I BRING?

As many as you want (within reason ;) I have had kids bring their whole closet and others bring two shirts, (boys I'm talking to you)! I prefer you pack 3-5 outfits per hour of shooting time. This gives us a nice variety. We don't have to use all of them. Time can be used up quickly making decisions on what to wear so have your outfits, accessories, and shoes planned out. Bring only your most loved clothing and make sure you feel comfortable and confident in it.

HOW WILL I CHOOSE MY LOCATIONS?

I always say to choose a place that has special meaning to you. It can be your family ranch or maybe where your family likes to go camping. With that being said, I have scouted many locations over the years that are amazing for photos. I will help you through this process of choosing locations when we meet for your pre-session consult.

HOW SOON WILL I SEE MY PICTURES?

After the shoot, I will choose a handful of the best images, and post them to social media as a sneak peak. I will then fully edit the rest of the images and deliver them to you via a digital gallery. I will also have a set of paper proofs shipped directly to your door. The entire process can take 4-6 weeks depending on the season.

I knew from the beginning of my senior year that I wanted Kate to take my senior pictures. Her images are simple and have high contrast that truly focuses on your personal style. I love going to shoots with Kate because she has an artistic eye that is a rarity in many photographers, not to mention her smile lights up any room. "

from Liz

"Kate has the ability to capture any client’s personality in just a simple photo and that is the most important when it comes to senior pictures.
