You are enough just the way you are.

Meet the photographer 


Photography is more than just a photo.

It's the ability to capture the essence of a moment, the emotions you are feeling and the people you are surrounded by. Photography gives you the ability to revisit a moment in time over and over again even as things change, people change, and time passes.

Children grow up so quickly and I wanted a way to freeze time and remember the precious moments between my daughter and me. Her first steps, the first time she saw snow, the innocence of her discovering the world for the first time. Those are the timeless moments that I will never be able to relive, but I want to remember forever. Through the art of photography, I strive to bring that same indescribable emotion to other families as well.

With love,
Katharina
the woman behind the camera

“Katharina has the eye and the talent to transform small special moments into captivating photographs that speak to your heart. She is genuinely a nice person, making us feel very comfortable with her presence

and creating the perfect opportunity for her to capture those real and meaningful interactions worth remembering. Katharina has watched our family grow through her camera's lens and helped us solidify memories that will be cherished for a lifetime. I can't recommend her enough. The final product of each session is always unique and never disappoints.”

 School Photography


School photo session in Seatle

We are all too familiar with school photos.

As a small business, my approach to school photos is both personal and professional. I have a small and select client list and as a result, can provide superior customer service and beautiful artistic images.

Plus, as a mom, I have so much experience working with kids.

My patience and genuine love for children allows me to approach photoshoots in a way that makes your child feel happy and comfortable and brings out their very best.

 

 Your Best Moments & My Best Work


 
 

My style of editing is what many photographers would refer to as light and airy. I think this really adds to the mood of a family photo shoot and sets the right ambiance. Plus it’s very flattering for everybody who is photographed. Take a look at my work here!
