People's words about our photography

You have all have a story, why not let us tell your story? 

I love life and love to create moments that simply are a mark in history. I am so blessed to have found this town of Effingham and clients from all over Mattoon, Charleston, IL, Flora, Altamont that cherish my work. My approach to business is simple, 

Let us tell your story...is a key phrase I've been using for seven years now. My goal is to simply create meaningful memories through pictures

that no one else around can. 

I truly believe that some of the most cherished moments can be found right within your own backyard in junk piles. Where others see junk, I see beauty and wonder. My goal with each session is to create more then just a moment, but a memory that you can reflect back on for years to come by looking at your photos. I want to catch the hidden glances between our incredible families as they look at their portraits on their walls knowing they have raised their children well. I want to be there to capture a your child's genuine laughter, and we want to capture our Seniors celebrating their "lasts" as they get ready to continue on their life's adventures to college. Ultimately, I want to create your story, in a way that is authentic and true to who you are and to truly create a story that unfolds our clients most cherished days. We have created a movement in celebrating life and are blessed to share in some of the most memorable moments with so many amazing people!

Here's what Mary had to say about her daughter's senior experience,

"Just wanted to say thank you. Kate's book is truly stunning. I don't have tears often, but I did today as I looked at her portraits. I keep going back and looking and looking. You did such a wonderful job before the shoots helping us through the process, during the sessions to get the perfect picture and after by helping us weed through all those shots and pick which ones needed to be in her book. You are so talented and made this such a great experience. Thank you."
