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.”

“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.”

Hey there, I'm Kate!

The Person Behind the Camera

 

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 is a big part of why I love elopements. With fewer expectations and more freedom to make the day entirely your own, there’s room to slow down and actually take it all in. I’m there to offer direction when it’s helpful, then step back and document the quiet, spontaneous, and completely unplanned moments that make the day yours.


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

The Booking Process

 

01
Tell me what you’re dreaming up.
Share what you’re envisioning, who will be there, and where you’re thinking of saying your vows. I’ll send over my availability, answer your questions, and we can talk through what matters most to the two of you.
02
Let’s make your date official.
Once you’ve chosen the coverage that feels right, a signed contract and retainer will reserve your date. From there, I’m officially your photographer and we can start bringing the day together.

We’ll shape the day around you.
We’ll plan the timeline, locations, and details that make it yours. Whether that means private vows, wandering downtown, or celebrating with your closest people, the day is built around what feels right.
04
Then you get to be fully in it.
When the day arrives, you don’t need to think about what comes next or where to stand. I’ll guide you when it helps and step back when it doesn’t, leaving you free to experience the moments as they happen.

St. Augustine Elopement Photography FAQs

Where Are You Based and Do You Travel?

I’m based in St. Augustine, Florida, and I love photographing elopements both here and at beautiful destinations. For me, it’s all about capturing your unique love story in a place that feels meaningful to you.


If you’re planning a destination elopement or one here in St. Augustine, I’d be thrilled to be part of your day. Reach out, and let’s chat about your vision and the details!

How Much Do You Charge For Travel?

For elopements, additional fees apply for destination travel costs. These are custom for each location so please reach out so we can discuss the details!

Can I customize my elopement package?

Absolutely! Since every couple is different, I am happy to create a package that fits your photography checklist + budget for your big day.


Get in contact with me using the inquiry form below and we can set up a call to hash out all the details!!

How far in advance should we book?

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 Offer Payment Plan Options?

Yes! I offer 3 payment options: 1-time, 2-time, and 3-time payment plans.


PLEASE NOTE: A non-refundable retainer and signed contract is required to officially book your date. This is on a first-come, first-served basis. Please book early to secure your date and avoid it being reserved by someone else.

How Will I Receive My Photos?

I deliver all your photos through an online gallery called Pixieset, where you can easily share them with family and friends. Plus, all images are available for direct download right from the gallery.

How Long Until We Receive Our Photos?

I’ll deliver your photos as quickly as possible! To ensure the highest quality, I typically take 4–6 weeks to complete elopement galleries. Sometimes it’s sooner—so keep an eye on your email!

You’ll also receive sneak peeks within 24–48 hours to enjoy while you wait for the full gallery.

Will Our Photos Be Safe With You?

I back up every single photo in five separate locations, all completely independent from one another. While I’m shooting, images are saved to two memory cards simultaneously. Afterward, they’re stored on an external hard drive, uploaded to the cloud, and the original memory cards are kept until your gallery is delivered. Your elopement photos are far too important to risk, and I take every precaution to ensure they’re safe, secure, and never left to chance.
