So you've booked your vacation, you're excited for a Branson getaway, now you need family photos!
I'm a no-fuss photographer skilled at giving direction so your session will be low stress and even - FUN!
We'll play games that make everyone in your group loosen up which always makes for the greatest photos!

Even with big extended families,
I’m always watching for the smaller moments,
the ones that naturally unfold.
My favorite photo sessions are
full of laughter, rock skipping,
shoulder rides and cuddles.
I believe the magic is in the
every day moments
that make you a family.

Sessions are fun, relaxed, and built around your family's natural rhythm.

Kate did an amazing job with our family photos while we were vacationing in Branson. Having never been there before, and coming from all over the country, we depended on her knowledge of the area for location options based on our interests. She was prompt with emails to schedule, answer questions, and arrange phone calls when necessary. She also provided helpful tips for apparel. She was fun and worked well with our young children. We were so pleased with our experience and our photos!
