COMMERCIAL

Let’s talk business.

Hi! I’m Kat.

I started off in this industry as a model back in college. I went on to study graphic design and became a packaging designer straight out of college.

Bored of the strict rules in packaging design I bought a camera and took up photography in the evenings and on weekends. Taking photos very quickly became both a passion and an obsession and I haven’t looked back.

I am now both a portrait and lifestyle photographer as well as a proud Profoto South Africa ambassador based in Cape Town, South Africa.

With experience both behind the lens and in front of it I bring the 13 years of lessons and knowledge gained to every photoshoot. Throughout the years I have tried my hand at pretty much every type of photography. Through doing so I have learnt a lot about what I do and don’t like to photograph, as well as how to light pretty much any scenario, both on location and in studio.

Got an idea that you want to bring to life?

Let’s make magic together!

Creativity thrives with collaboration,
Let’s connect & create magic together!.

HOW IT WORKS

CLARITY SESSION

We have a 30 minute chat online where we get to know each other. I ask you questions that will help me to get to know you better. This will allow me to find out what your intentions are behind doing the shoot, as well as what you are hoping to get out of it. This covers everything from your reason for wanting to do the shoot to any concepts or ideas that you have for it as well as wardrobe ideas.

I give you tips on the next steps forward as well as some homework for you to do so that we are on the same page as to exactly what you are looking to get out of your photoshoot.

SHOOT DAY

Your session starts with being pampered by one of our amazing hair and make up artists.

The shoot consists of two looks (or more, depending on the package you choose).

The looks and set options will depend on the themes or vibes that we discuss in your clarity session.

RETOUCHING AND IMAGE REVEAL

I take the time to pre-select only the best of your images which are edited and uploaded for you to choose from. It is up to you which images are to be in your final selection.

Each package includes a certain amount of images. If you love your final images so much that you want more images than was included in your chosen package, pricing will be shared with you before your reveal so that you are confident in your final selection.

“When I met Kat for the first time, I didn’t have a specific shoot in mind, but I knew, if I ever want to plan a shoot I will contact her. It was a gut feeling. And it turned out even better than I expected! I love working with Kat, it’s always a lot of fun combined with the best results you could wish for! It got to the point that I asked Kat to shoot our elopement and what can I say? The photos came out so cool that we got featured on Rock ‘n Roll Bride in England! If I need a shoot, I book Kat.”

“My experience with Kat was great overall. She was friendly and professional and it was nice to have her within the small group of people that were part of our intimate civil wedding. She delivered the final images on time, and every person that visits our home and sees our framed wedding picture, is in love with it! Gracias, Kat.”
