This is a photo of me, Kate 👋🏼 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The end of 2019 was a pivotal time for me as I took a leap of faith and transitioned from a video producer to photographer. I felt called to work with people one on one, and help them communicate through photography. I’ve since had the opportunity to work with artists, creatives and generally bad-ass people behind the camera, things I’m excited to share with others who follow along on this journey here on IG (i.e. you). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I’m still looking forward to working with amazing people in the future as the situation dissipates, and we find ourselves within our “new normal” on the other side of this. There is so much pain and uncertainty in the world, it’s hard to even consider what my photography and client work can express at a time like this. If anything. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In the past week as events have unfolded, I’ve been still with my thoughts and emotions. That stillness has allowed me the space to revisit work I’ve done in the past few months with a new eye, a new perspective. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I also remembered a tarot card reader I spoke to last summer who revealed that my biggest hurdle was not the actual creative process, but putting my work out in the world for others to see. It was less of a revelation, actually. I’ve known this for a long time, and will continue to work through how strange it feels to push the “publish” button in a time like this. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Images matter - but most importantly you and your humanity matter. I want to show people how photography can be a powerful storytelling tool to empower and propel them forward. With that in mind, I’ll continue to shine a light on what I can do and have spent twenty years of my life cultivating: a sense of purpose and value that my unique, creative eye can bring to others. 💕⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
