This work is for humans who value

connection over perfection.

I photograph people, relationships, and work in a way that brings the depth of who you are into view, the connections you share, the moments you inhabit, the stories you’re living.

I’m not interested in fake smiles, forced poses, or curated perfection. My focus is on presence, emotion, and telling your story in a way that honors the fullness of the human experience.

Your story carries depth, texture, and history.

It can’t be flattened into a pose or manufactured into a moment,

it needs space to unfold.

A pregnant woman with dark, wavy hair stands outdoors in a forest. She wears a cream-colored satin robe off her shoulders, exposing her belly, and has various jewelry including rings, bracelets, and a necklace with a crescent moon pendant.

I take a relaxed, people-first approach to photography. I’m less concerned with perfect images and more interested in how the experience feels while we’re making them. I work with individuals, families, small businesses, and community spaces in a way that’s patient and attentive, letting real moments lead. This work is about presence, trust, and capturing what’s already there.

  • Individuals and personal milestone

  • Families, couples, and relationships

  • Small businesses and creative work

  • Small events and community gatherings

I am Katelyn,

I’ve spent almost a decade photographing Oklahoma City families, communities, and small businesses, and what I’ve learned is this: the best images don’t come from perfect posing. They come from presence.

My work is about paying attention to people, to relationships, to the moments that usually get rushed past. I photograph in a way that allows things to unfold naturally, so what’s already there can be seen and remembered.

and I know being photographed can feel vulnerable, especially if you’re tired of performing or trying to get it “right.”

Katelyn was awesome during our photo shoot! My little one wasn’t the most cooperative during and she STILL got amazing photos. I will definitely have Katelyn take more photos for our family!
