My second grade teacher once told my mom it didn’t matter who she sat me next to, I’d still be chatty: “If I locked Kaitlin in a closet, she’d talk to the brooms.” - A direct quote.
Witty banter is my superpower, and I use it to make your groomsmen line the heck up, remind mom you do not want cousins in the bridal suite please and thank you, become pals with your shy kiddos, get your precious newborn to relax and always hype you up during those branding & boudoir photos to make you feel your best. You're not as awkward as you think, I promise.
I will steal you away if that rare Pittsburgh golden hour sunset shows itself. You’ll thank me later.
I always go above and beyond… I’ve even straight up done a bride’s hair and makeup. I didn’t just ‘fix’ it… I styled it. Twice.
Also… I only take profile pictures. Seriously, ask my friends.
Outside of wedding world, I fill up my calendar (and creative cup) with brand photography, boudoir sessions, lifestyle portraits and documenting those fleeting newborn moments.
When I don't have a camera in my hand, you can usually find me on the couch cuddling my two cats, at a concert, sitting behind the ceramics wheel or hopping on a plane.
Do you love music? Give my specially curated KPP playlist
a listen. It perfectly captures the feeling of working with me. But don't worry, you won't have to endure my emo era that I revisit often; I'll keep that one private.
Like to travel? I’ve got spots for you to scope out in Morocco, my most recent getaway. Have you been to Ireland? It’s next on my bucket list!
Of course I’ll deliver bomb photos, no doubt. I’ll also be someone not just at your side, but on your side. What you're feeling now? That’s the gut feeling that I’m your photographer.
… Did we just become best friends?!?

"Kaitlin was incredible to work with! She had a way about her that made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She was always down for whatever, despite crazy weather and our general camera awkwardness. Having Kaitlin by my side on the wedding day was a calming force I desperately needed. She was hands down one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning journey."
