I’m a professional photographer with years of experience capturing real, meaningful moments that make every story unique. I specialize in weddings, events, engagements, portraits, and headshots, creating images that feel warm, natural, and true to you.
Working solo allows me to give each client my full attention, from planning and shooting to thoughtful editing and retouching. I use a Nikon mirrorless system and a detail-driven approach to deliver high-quality photos that reflect your personality and vision.
Whether it’s a wedding day, a new headshot, family portraits, or restoring an old photo, visual storytelling is at the heart of my work. If you’re looking for genuine, memorable images, I’d love to connect and talk about your shoot.

Kalin went above and beyond to make our New Orleans elopement/wedding photos amazing. She selected a gorgeous location near our Air BNB and was mindful of my shoes and dress as we were walking through puddles and mud spots left by the recent rain. She helped carry the flowers. She listened to my suggestions to get the shots that I wanted like the Swan picture and the flexing pic which is my husband's family's tradition. She also let me preview some of the pics during the shoot to make sure it was aligning with my vision. We had a beautiful experience with Kalin and I would gladly recommend her to anyone!

Kalin was outstanding, punctual, and went above and beyond. Kalin was constantly getting the best shots and took the initiative to line people up as needed. Kalin was very professional, always in the right spot without ever being intrusive. I haven't even seen the photos yet but I know they will be great! I cannot recommend enough, she even helped set up our decorations before the party started.

Kalin is now my go to photographer! For my daughter the only thing I had to focus on was bringing her, and changing her outfits. Kalin was patient and professional and able to capture amazing pictures of my moody toddler!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Custom Packages: Our pricing is tailored to each client's needs, so we offer flexible packages based on the type of photography service you require—whether it’s weddings, portraits, events, or commercial work. We’ll work with you to create a package that aligns with your vision and budget.
No Hidden Fees: We believe in clear, upfront pricing. The cost you’re quoted will be the total cost, with no surprise fees. Any additional services or products (like extra images, prints, or travel fees) will be discussed beforehand.
Discounts & Promotions: We occasionally offer special promotions, especially for repeat clients or referrals. Be sure to ask about any ongoing discounts when booking.
Deposit & Payment Terms: A deposit is required to secure your booking, with the remaining balance due on the day of the shoot or before delivery of final images. Payment plans can be arranged if needed.
Travel Fees: If your shoot location is outside our standard service area, a travel fee may apply. We’ll provide an estimate for any travel expenses upfront.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When you first reach out, we’ll have a conversation (via phone, email, or in-person) to discuss your vision, needs, and any specific details about the shoot. Whether it’s a wedding, portrait session, or commercial project, we want to understand your goals and how we can bring them to life.
We’ll also talk about your budget, timing, and any other preferences you may have. This helps us create a custom package that fits both your needs and your vision.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I got started in photography because of a deep love for storytelling through images. My journey into photography was a natural progression from a lifelong passion for art and creative expression.
As I grew as a photographer, I expanded my services to include family portraits, commercial shoots, and even corporate events. Over the years, I’ve learned so much from my clients—each shoot is an opportunity to grow, learn, and evolve as both an artist and a business owner.
