(Kathy for Short)

YOUR VISUAL STORYTELLER!

I AM JUST A GIRL THE GREW UP IN A SMALL TOWN wanting to always make a big impact but NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO...

GROWING UP IN A SMALL TOWN THE BIG MOMENTS ARE WHAT COLLEGE YOU'Re GOING TO PICK OR WHAT STREET YOU'Re GOING TO LIVE ON WHEN YOU START YOUR OWN LIFE. THIS ALL CHANGED WHEN I TOOK THE SAME PATH THAT MOST DO AND SET OFF TO GET A BACHELOR'S DEGREE. IN HIGHSCHOOL THEY TEACH YOU THE "TYPICAL JOBS OUT THERE" YOU KNOW A DOCOTR, NURSE, TEACHER, FIREFIGHTER, POLICE OFFICER, AND SOCIAL WORKER. I WAS TOLD THAT ANYTHING WAS POSSIBLE AS LONG AS SHE HAD A DEGREE BECAUSE ITS HARD FOR WOMAN TO GET GOOD JOBS WITHOUT THE PIECE OF PAPER. SO, I SET FORTH AND BECAME A SOCIAL WORKER.

DO I REGRET IT?? NOPE!!

WHY??

BECAUSE IN THAT MOMENT, I FOUND MYSELF. AND IT LED ME DOWN THE PATH TO WHERE I AM TODAY.

IN HIGHSCHOOL I TOOK A YEARBOOK CLASS AND THAT IS WHERE I PICKED UP MY VERY FIRST CAMERA. IT WAS NOT UNTIL AFTER I GRADUATED COLLEGE THAT I REALLY BEGAN TO FIGURE OUT WHAT I WANTED TO DO WITH MY LIFE. I JUST MARRIED MY HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEART THE YEAR BEFORE AND MY HUSBAND HAD MOVED HOME FROM COLORADO. (THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE ON EARTH) HE BOUGHT ME A CAMERA FOR MY GRADUATION PRESENT AND I BEGAN DABBING INTO TAKING PICTURES OF NATURE AND MY DOG. I Began the good old youtube university to learn HOW TO USE THE CAMERA. I started DOING PHOTOSHOOTS WITH SOME FRIENDS I MET THROUGH A MAKEUP COMPANY CALLED YOUNIQUE. I FOUND A LOVE FOR PHOTOGRAPHY THROUGH THESE GET TOGETHERS AND WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I HAD OUR FIRST DAUGHTER IN 2017 I RAN WITH THE IDEA OF BEING A PHOTOGRAPHER.

DO I HAVE ANY DEGREE IN PHOTOGRAPHY??

No... But that did not stop me from turning my interest into a passion.

I QUICKLY LEARNED THAT ITS NOT A PIECE OF PAPER THAT WILL GET YOU FAR IN LIFE ITS THE KNOWLEDGE GAINED AND LESSONS LEARNED.

FLASH FORWARD TO NOW!

I AM A SMALL BUISNESS OWNER AS OF JANUARY 2021. I have an amazing supportive husband TWO AMAZING GIRLS! We recently moved to brown city michigan where i renovated our outside garage into a studio! We have beutiful 15 acres to capture families, couples, and children!
