Hi there! i’m katelyn.

Ben + Ashley

  • A Seven Springs Wedding

Ashley’s dad stood up for a toast, and he shared that ever since the first day that he met Ben, he never once worried about whether or not he would take care of his little girl. He trusted him, and he could just see how much Ashley loved Ben from the way they looked at one another. As I think back to the first time that I saw Ben and Ashley together, I can say the same thing. Their love for one another is so apparent for others to see, and it’s beautiful! We have been family friends with the Stickleys my whole life, but only really started to spend more intentional time together during the last 3 years.

2016 KJ Couples Cookout Reunion

  • A Dream Come True!

This post seems a little surreal to be writing! Remember that time we said we were selling the house that we had just built and we were moving, but we didn’t share why or where for like 8 months?!!! We were trying desperately to buy land that wasn’t for sale and get a building permit to build our forever home. We were also trying to sell our current house at the time, and that ended up taking over 10 months!!

MJ + Jackie | Married

  • Anniversary + Maternity Shoot

You may be thinking “I didn’t think that Katelyn did maternity sessions!” and you would be correct. However, long story short, this is a very special exception to that rule because we had booked an anniversary session with these two and then it worked out perfectly to show off Jackie’s perfect bump at the same time! :) We have had to say no to so many anniversary and maternity sessions for so long because I was pregnant or because we just haven’t had enough time in our schedule to squeeze in extra shoots.
