wedding photography for the offbeat bride. based in jackson hole, wy & available worldwide.
I don’t even have the words. This session was soooo much fun! Molly and her friend Callie and I headed up north of Jackson to historic Mormon Row for a bridal session this Thursday morning and just got so lucky with light and buffalo and had an amazing amazing time! So yes, buffalo. Headed right…
So I haven’t even finished editing this wedding yet but I couldn’t resist doing a blog post – I’m so super excited about these photos! Mindy & Kyle got married on 9/18 at the CM Ranch in Dubois, WY – Mindy grew up there before moving to South Dakota for school. Can you imagine a…

Simple. Outstanding. Simply outstanding!!!! Katy, Either you get to shoot the most amazing weddings on the planet, or you make them look like they are.

I love the wedding pics! They turned out amazing!
Nice pics Mindy. Congrats.
Fun Pictures!
Mindy and Kyle — What wonderful pictures of a great occasion. No one could possibly have captured the beauty of the ranch — and the bride — any better!
I was one of the guests at CM Ranch on its last week and got to meet the happy couple then. It was fun looking at your pictures. They’re great, and I wish you much happiness.
It was a great time and place. Wonderful wedding of 2 great people. We loved when the horses went by too.
It was great.
Katy – I am an aspiring amateur photographer and have shot a few weddings – but the work of a true professional like you takes my breath away. We visited CM Ranch in August and you caught the vibe there very well. It would be a magic place for a wedding…
Wow!! The photos look awesome! What great memories from an absolutely beautiful day!!
Beautiful pictures of a beautiful wedding! Can’t wait to see more.
This is a beautiful wedding, stunning location.
Beautiful photography! I’m an amateur myself here in Maine, but I love looking at your work.

Oooooooo, I’m in deep smit. A few weeks ago I finally got around to ordering a sample album from Finao and have been obsessively checking their website ever since hoping to see the magical phrase….’Shipped – Tracking #xxxxxxxxetc’ next to my order. It got here yesterday and has completely exceeded my expectations – I mean,…

Wow….I knew finao was awesomeness, but these photos are INCREDIBLE!! I use a vision art, and I felt the same way when I got my sample album…I was drooling over it!!! I sometimes just hold it and rock back and forth.
You have gorgeous work!! xoxox You make me want to order a sample from finao now!!
I know, I kind of just wanted to keep looking at it last night…maybe fall asleep with it even. You should totally order a sample from them, they’re beautiful!!!
Loving it! Is it 2011 yet?
hahaha, it’ll be here sooner than you think!!! 
Katy, I’m glad I stopped by – your Finao sample album looks absolutely amazing. Love the presentation too. Makes me rethink my Graphi offerings.. Finao products definitely have something unique about them.
btw, love your choice of cover!

Looks wonderful. Can’t wait to feel it and smell it.
That looks very, very nice. Both the book as the images. Having a sample like this makes the brides dream of their own book, which is good. Afterall, weddings are like fairytales…
That IS an awesome album! I like the leather color choices and the custom box. I might have to get a sample with a box like that…
So I’ve been getting all misty lately….my little Norm dog is going to be 12 this month and I’m all panicky thinking that I’ve been neglecting him…not enough petting, not throwing his ball enough for him, taking too many photos of Milo, not enough of the dog, etc. etc. So when I saw the two…

Awwwww. So sweet! Mojo is tolerating Desi better these days, too.
Milo looooves his buddy. Priceless.
It’s a toss up btwn #6 and #9 as to which makes my heart swell the most.
These photos are priceless…enough to melt your heart!
These are absolutely gorgeous Katy!
This weekend we headed out to Mike Yokel Park here in Jackson to celebrate little Ozzie’s first birthday. Cupcakes, sandwiches, little animal cups filled with crackers, fun toys for the kids and a pony keg for the grownups….it was great! I haven’t had a chance to ask permission to post photos of Ozzie online, but…
