What’s a photo you’ve captured you’re most proud of?
A shot of a rainy wedding where the couple walked down the aisle with their family and friends in plastic festival style coats and they kissed naturally under an umbrella. It was a true doco moment and one of my fav shots ever.
Why are you a photographer?
I'm a photographer because at a young age I understood the value of preserving memories. When you lose someone, photos become tangible treasures when memories fade. The humanity of weddings is everything to me and witnessing this is a true privilege.
Describe your dream couple.
My dream couple are a couple that are up for being a little bit adventurous, climbing fences or hills doesnt phase them and that want me to document real honest moments of their day.
What advice do you give every couple?
Do your wedding your way ! We all see lots of trends every wedding season and even though some are pretty awesome don't let these trends dictate your authenticity on what your dream wedding will be.
What word keeps coming up when couples describe your work?
Dreamy and full of wonderful moments.

Kate was an absolute delight to work with. She is so incredibly talented and made us feel comfortable all day. She captured the entire day so well, and her knowledge of the local Matakana area and where to take us for photos was brilliant. We are just thrilled to have such epic photos as a reminder of our special day.

It was an absolute pleasure to deal with Kate. She’s a kind, fun loving, true professional who was so easy to deal with. Her photos were next level. She captured moments of the highest class when we least expected it. We’re so happy with the portfolio that she produced for us. Forever grateful for the memories that Kate has given us

Thank you so very much for the amazing photos you captured of our very special day. I absolutely love every one of them! We had the best day ever, full of love and laughter and your pictures really show this. I’m so glad we made the decision to have you as our photographer. As we mentioned at our very first meeting all those months ago, neither of us like having our photo taken. You made us feel so relaxed and it certainly shows.

So glad we found the lovely Kate! There was an immediate connection right from the outset and her warm and calming energy made the whole process seamless right through to the end of our big day. Thank you Kate from the bottom of our hearts. We will treasure what you have done for us always. A true master of your craft and would happily recommend you without hesitation

Kate was our wedding photographer and did the most incredible job. From the moment she came on board she helped add structure to our planning when we still didn't really know what we were doing. Then on the day she helped hold the whole thing together. Her enthusiasm and creativity helped so much on the day and it shows in the photos. The photos are bright and fun and intimate. She really captured the full spectrum of the day from the candid, loud and joyous to the small quiet moments. Couldn't be happier that these are the memories we get to hold on to.

Kate was our photographer for our wedding in January and we couldn't recommend her more highly! We have had so many compliments on the pictures Kate and Ross took. Kate made us (and our guests) feel relaxed and at ease as we had our photos taken and we are thrilled with our set of photos. The photos are so beautiful and really capture our special day.

Kate was absolutely amazing - she captured the true essence of our day. From the sweet moments to the the many laughs. The direction she gave our entire wedding party and guests was great and meant everyone was relaxed. We will be loving these photos for years to come. She is a very talented individual and would highly recommend choosing her for your next event - you couldn’t go wrong

I couldn’t recommend Kate enough! She made her way into our hearts as soon as we met her and captured every element of our wedding - all the roar emotion and energy that was so important to us, so perfectly captured with a touch of magic - she is an absolute rockstar behind the lens. We are obsessed with every image we have received. We will never forgot our special day. Thank you Kate

It’s impossible not to make a connection with Kate when you first meet her. Matt and I knew straight away that we wanted her to be a part of our special day ✨ Kate - from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much!! I’m not one to feel overly comfortable in front of a camera, but the way you made us both feel at ease and the way in which you managed to capture the magic of our day is truly incredible. There is not a moment you missed and my heart wants to explode reflecting on it through your lens. We will be forever grateful

If I could give Kate more stars I would - she is everything I could ever have wished for in a wedding photographer, and then more. Her calm, positive energy made our day even more special, it felt like having a friend with us on our wedding photo shoot. I am so in love with every photo she has sent us and have had so many compliments about them. Kate is a pure, talented artist. I can't thank you enough for the amazing gift our our beautiful photos xxx

Kate was absolutely amazing! She went absolutely above and beyond anything I could have expected and our photo's are stunning! The entire day she was calm, positive and completely embracing of our weird and random acts that we now have a reminder of our special day that is totally and utterly us with no awkwardness at all. Thank you so much

Honestly: not just a talented photographer...but also a wonderful human being! Kate showed to us her passion for photography from the start, and from the first meeting we fell in love with her! Sometimes people get hooked with a career that they don’t really love: not Kate. Her passion shows in every little detail. Her photos speak for her talent. On our wedding day she was on fire! And her enthusiasm rubbed off on us: we enjoyed having our photo taken so much! When the photos preview came through we were blown away by how much she was able to capture the moment: beautiful photos full of soul, we are so happy we will be able to have these photos in our life to remind us of our special day...but also to give us the chance to show to those who couldn’t attend and make them live the feelings of the day! Thank you Kate
