WEDDING, PORTRAIT & LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST

// Northern Idaho-based photographer capturing life’s greatest moments and adventures //

Hey there! I’m Kaitlyn

I’m a homegrown Alaskan, I spent four years learning some stuff and falling in love in Oregon, and then I moved to Idaho with my amazing husband to keep adventuring and be closer to family!

I’m a follower of Christ, whose primary focus is to convey God's beauty and love in all of life's little and big moments. My goal is to be more than just a photographer, but a true friend who gets to know you for you and creates meaningful work that will last forever!

Genuine. Adventurous. Timeless.

Perspective is one of the most valuable elements of a photograph, and one’s approach to life. I believe in living in the moment and preserving memories through each and every photo. No matter where you’re at in life, there’s always another adventure to embark upon, and documenting it is a privilege. Those are the experiences I want you to enjoy to the fullest. You will always be able to see and feel the life in those memories and milestones through my work.

    “It's hard to put into words just how amazing Kaitlyn is not only as a photographer but as a person. Each photo session will feel like hanging out with a friend and there is no better hype woman. She does an amazing job at giving directions that make you feel so confident and comfortable in your own skin. Kaitlyn has such a unique perspective and balances executing the vision you have while also creating beautifully unique photos.”

  • Luke + Rachel

    Kaitlyn is INCREDIBLE to work with. We have 2 young kiddos and she is so great with them and makes it so easy for them to smile. She never forces them to do something they don’t want to and always makes the photo shoots fun. We love her and her photos.

  • Macie + Bridger

    Me and my fiancé are not the most experienced models but for our engagement photoshoot she made us feel incredibly special and also made us look like models when we got the photos. Could not recommend her enough for any event you need photos of!

  • Olivia

    Kaitlyn is amazing to work with! She makes you feel so comfortable and the end result is so beautiful. She is such an amazing person with a true gift for photography. You can tell that she has put so much time into refining her art and giving her clients the best result possible!
