2018 Behind The Scenes

WHAT A YEAR!

2018 was an absolute blast and I am so excited ( and for some pictures, maybe a little embarrassed ;) ha! ) to share my first ever BTS blog with you!

2018 was stock full of amazing and wonderful couples, beautiful venues, and the best vendors! And not to mention I had some of the best side kicks in town! (I’m talking about you, Kristyn & Heather!) This post would definitely not have been possible had it not been for them! ( I’m not much of a selfie gal ;) )

I hope y’all enjoy these BTS shots and that they bring some chuckles, a glimpse into my world as a wedding photographer, and a look into the ever growing attempts at learning how to style and tame my hair ;)

Much Love,

Katherine

Excited for the day to start and even more excited about this bright and colorful room at The Pineapple Manor! Oh, and the fireplace ;)

Each day starts off with some details! Don’t worry though, no dresses were harmed or made dirty in the making of these photos.

Captured at my finest moment…This is what a 95 degree day with 100% humidity looks like. I’ll have you know the bride still looked stunning :)
