Wedding Photography Rooted in Connection

Your wedding day is about more than a timeline or a collection of events. It's about the people who have shaped your story and the moments you'll share together.


Of course, I'll capture the big moments, but I'm just as focused on everything in between. The quiet anticipation, the unexpected tears, and the laughter shared with the people you love most.


Whether you're celebrating at the Lightner Museum, The Treasury on the Plaza, or along the shoreline of Anastasia Island, my goal is simple: to create photographs that preserve those connections in a way that feels genuine, meaningful, and lasting.

 

Specialized in capturing the moments that matter most.

The Person Behind the Camera

 

WEDDING & ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN ST. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA

 

I’ve been drawn to art and photography for as long as I can remember, but wedding photography found me a little unexpectedly. I first brought my camera along to photograph the parts of a family wedding that weren’t being covered, and somewhere in those in-between hours, I realized this was what I wanted to do.


That instinct has stuck with me. I’m still drawn to the moments nobody’s posing for, while knowing when a little direction can turn a good portrait into a beautiful one. I want you to come away with photographs of the moments everyone remembers, along with the ones you didn’t even realize were happening.


When I’m not photographing weddings, I’m usually drinking coffee, thrifting around downtown St. Augustine, painting pet portraits, or hanging out with my cats.

Kind Words

“We were both a little nervous about being in front of the camera, but Kate made us feel comfortable almost immediately. She gave us direction when we needed it, but nothing ever felt stiff or overly posed. We were able to relax, laugh, and actually enjoy being together instead of worrying about what we were supposed to be doing. Having Kate there felt so natural, and she made the whole experience so much easier than we expected.”

Emma & Josh

Kind Words

“Looking through our wedding gallery felt like getting to experience the entire day all over again. Kate captured so many little moments and reactions that we completely missed while everything was happening. Of course we love our portraits, but some of our absolute favorites are the candid photos of us with our family and friends. The photos feel like our wedding, and we’re so happy we’ll always have them to look back on.”

St. Augustine Photography FAQs

 

Do you travel outside of St. Augustine for Weddings?

Absolutely. While I’m based in St. Augustine, I love capturing weddings and elopements all across Northeast Florida, whether that’s a coastal celebration or a wedding in neighboring Jacksonville. Travel within the region is never a problem, and I always approach new locations with the same attention to detail and care that I bring to every St. Augustine wedding.

How far in advance should we book your services?

I recommend booking as early as possible, most couples secure their dates 10-14 months in advance to ensure availability, especially for popular St. Augustine venues. Popular dates and seasons do fill up quite quickly, so securing your date with a retainer and contract guarantees that I'll be there to capture your day. To check availability or start planning, inquire through my contact form - I'll guide you every step of the way.

Do you have experience photographing at the wedding venue we choose?

I've photographed at many of St. Augustine's most iconic venues, and those in the North Florida area and beyond. For venues I have not worked at I take the time to scout the location, plan lighting and angles so every moment is captured beautifully.

What is the process for booking?

Once you reach out, we'll schedule a consultation (via zoom or phone) to discuss your vision, timeline, and photography needs. After that, I'll send a contract and retainer to secure your date. From there, we'll plan your engagement session, discuss your wedding day timeline via a questionnaire, and ensure every detail is aligned so your experience is seamless from start to finish.
