Welcome, friend! I'm Kate. I married my high school sweetheart over 10 years ago and we have three curious and imaginative kids. You'll find motherhood stories and ideas here, along with gorgeous photos and videos!

Did you know you can get candid lifestyle photos without having to have the perfect home or even having to clean your house? This sweet family contacted me wanting some more natural poses and interactions with their newborn baby boy. I am always happy to have a new baby in the downtown Loveland, CO studio! […]

I recently had the opportunity to chat with Robin Hughes of Family Balance Yoga and Better Beauty with Robin. She’s a local multi-passionate entrepreneur with a focus on better health through mindfulness, exercise, and skincare. Did you know mindfulness and yoga are good for children of all ages too? We chatted about the benefits of […]

Babies grow so quickly! That sweet little helpless newborn quickly becomes full of personality, sitting, and starting to crawl! These moments are so precious and fleeting! As a Loveland studio photographer, I love capturing a baby’s personality as they grow! Details of their crawl, sweet chubby hands and eyelashes for days! Norah came to the […]

Halloween is, and always has been, one of my very favorite holidays. Growing up, we always made my costumes, usually from just piecing together clothes from around the house and occasionally branching into dying some fabric and getting really creative. I still love making costumes but this year we went store bought much to the […]

Miss Charlotte is no stranger to the camera, her mom being a photographer and all. She did have a touch of PCS (photographer’s child syndrome) though. 🙂 My oldest has a severe case after over 3 years in front of my lens. It’s not so much that she is shy in front of the camera […]

The Grobabski’s Family Session in the Fall was one of my very favorite’s for the year. First of all, they showed up dressed to perfection! Perfectly coordinated with pops of color but not too matchy. The mustard yellow they chose complimented the greenery around us and brought out the same shade of yellow that grows […]

You know that pregnant mom that looks like she’s smuggling a basketball under her shirt? Totally Katie! We had a little bit of a crazy evening for Derek and Katie’s maternity session in Fort Collins trying to wrangle their pups, Russ and Dakota. I was so happy to have a shot where they are both […]

Bryce is such a sweet little guy! We had an awesome time wandering around Dixon Resevoir in Fort Collins and getting to know each other. He was really into being right up close to the mountains and loves nature. You can tell he makes friends where ever he goes and wins over hearts. A fisherman […]

The Schinkel Family met me at Rolland Moore in Fort Collins as the sun was rising higher in the sky and casting lovely light into the golden grass. We had a quick session, getting a few family photos as well as some of the girls individually and together. Love these girls gorgeous blue eyes! I […]

The weekend after Thanksgiving, just before the weather turned really cold, I held family mini sessions at Rolland Moore Park in Ft. Collins. The George Family met me bright and early for a quick session. 3-year-old H had us all cracking up, evident by mom and dad’s expressions in the bottom left photo. These are […]
