Refined and rebellious, where classy has a punk rock edge- I'm a unique combo of things just like you are. I recognize that everyone is different in their own special way and I translate that truth into my work so that each client feels taken care of in a personalized way.
Your wedding photographer & new bestie
Philadelphia Wedding Photographers
all in one weird package
- You’re looking for a photographer who genuinely cares for you, wants to learn the ins and outs of your story, and will prioritize you and your partner's wishes.
- You and/or your partner feel awkward in front of the camera and you need someone who will hype you up like your best friend.
- You’re into real moments, a relaxed vibe, and working with someone who brings edge and elegance to the table.
- You’re over the cookie-cutter and cliche wedding photos and want something that actually feels like you - photos that feels both curated yet documentary.
(THIS IS WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF)
"Katarina makes you feel comfortable, confident, and like you have known her for years."
"She was great with our families and wedding party as well as bringing her fun personality to the dance floor."
"Katarina is literally your bestie leading up to and the day of your wedding."
All love is welcome and celebrated here.
Photography has always been my first love, but it started with a lifelong obsession with art. Since I was a kid, I’ve been drawn to creativity, and that naturally evolved into a fascination with the camera and the raw power of photography. What continues to inspire me is how a photo can make us feel things words could never say. One single image can capture real emotions and freeze a moment you want to live in forever.
For me, photography isn’t about posing or perfection, it’s where creativity meets honesty and human connection. That’s what makes my work real and electric.
Weddings? They’re emotional, kinda chaotic, and beautiful and exactly why I love them. I’m all about capturing the raw, unfiltered moments that actually tell your story, without forcing you into stiff poses or cookie-cutter frames. I keep the posed stuff to a minimum, and focus more on prompts. It’s more about letting your day unfold naturally than manufactured moments.
At the end of the day, I’m here to document your love story with respect, creativity, and a little bit of rebellion.
IF I AM NOT FOR ME, WHO WILL BE? IF I AM FOR ME, WHAT AM I? IF NOT NOW, WHEN?
Juniper is my four-year-old tabby cat, and she is nothing if not spicy! Her personality is unmatched and she is the most vocal cat you'll ever met. Despite her sass and spice, she's also a sweetie and the greatest joy in my life, and I love her with my whole existence.
Being a Cat Mom
I'm a huge foodie and amateur chef. MasterChef is high key one of my comfort shows, lol! If you can't find me in my editing cave, check the kitchen. I love to cook and try new restaurants with innovative menus!

It's not a phase, Mom! Gimme all that pop punk emo screamo and let me mosh like it's 2014!! All around, I genuinely just love music - I always let clients DJ on our sessions because sharing music is a love language to me. I love discovering new music and genres!

Emo + Punk Rock
I consider myself a walking plant encyclopedia. I am definitely more of an "outside-y" person than an "outdoors-y" person, but that being said, I love nature! I love trees, bees, and all things fungi and plants. Spend 10 minutes outside with me outside and I guarantee you'll get countless unsolicited fun facts about the surrounding environment!

Every good cup of coffee has two things: ice and oat milk - yes, even in the dead of winter! Dunkin is my chain of choice, but I usually prefer to brew it at home with my fancy farmer's market grounds or support a local coffee place. My all-time favorite coffee shops are Plants and Coffee in Easton, PA and Pot Heads Coffee in Bensalem, PA!

If you love my vibe, you should meet my Jimmy. If I take the cake, he is the sprinkles on top (hehe get it? Jimmy- Jimmies) ;) He is probably one of my favorite people and my best friend- We love to try new foods, go on lil day-trip adventures, and making new couple friends to go on double dates with! *wink wink*
