It's almost baby time! I am officially on maternity leave until September, 2024.
I'm Kate Fried (pronounced 'freed'), nice to meet you!
I am a wife to a junior high History teacher,
I am a mother to 3 wild girls with one more on the way,
I am a nature lover, easy laugher & creative homebody.
When I'm not on my laptop editing the latest photography session or going on nature adventures with my family you can find me browsing a thrift store with my husband or on my couch with a mug of ice cream.
My absolute favorite kind of session to photograph is of families interacting with their young children. The energy that kids bring puts everyone at ease & makes for beautiful moments of connection.

level-headed and easy-going with a sense of humor.
I graduated with a BS in Art/Education, studying drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics & stained glass. Essentially, all of my training has involved honing the ability to see beauty. I love to see your family, in all of their authentic, God-breathed loveliness.
I am a proud recipient of a 2023 Best of SWMO photographer award.
I see the world in colors and patterns & textures, always looking for the best composition, the best balance and harmony so your photos are unique works of art.
My first years after college were in a classroom, teaching high school Art. I spent 4 years at Blue Eye High School then 7 years at Branson High School before staying home to be a mom. The daily interaction in a classroom taught me to manage large groups of people effectively.
I prompt you into natural poses that show your best angles. I use games and activities to highlight your natural expressions with your loved ones.
After 5 years of unexplained infertility, God gave me & my husband 3 beautiful daughters, one after the other. They are now 5, 6 & 8 years old & we are expecting a fourth girl in May 2024. My girls have changed me in ways I never could have imagined. Spending these last 8 years as a mother have been the most rewarding years of my life. I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to be their mother and I understand how deeply you love your own children. It is a special privilege to witness your bond with your family.
I pay careful attention to what the light is doing, how the background will frame you & if everyone is camera-ready.
I am genuinely filled with delight at the privilege to document your unique story through images.
