Client Testimonials

Laura and Stephen Smart Katrina, Thank you for your incredible, creative touches and thoughtful ideas in preparing our wedding pictures. We were so impressed with your calm presence on our wedding day--you really made us feel relaxed and happy to smile! We appreciated your artistic touches and especially the candid shots which captured the emotions of the day so well. We also loved the fact that you and your assistant were able to take pictures of the same moment from different angles--it was fabulous to have you both there and to see things from a variety of perspectives. We feel that our meetings with you have been full of warmth, the photos you took captured the day beautifully and the final products you have given us from both the engagement session and the wedding were thoughtfully designed and presented. We appreciate all your efforts and recommend you highly!

With thanks, Laura and Stephen Smart


Mike, Karen  Jackson Hall The moment I opened the front door of our home I immediately knew I chose the right Photographer.

This was my first pregnancy and I wondered if a maternity photo shoot was the right thing to do. Katrina made me feel instantly at ease and that I had made one of the best decisions to have something so special be remembered. I loved her style of arriving at your home completely prepared for different types of lighting and Katrina has great ideas in using your own furnishings for different shots. Her genuine kindness, calm voice, and professionalism was such a wonderful experience for both myself and my camera shy husband. The beautiful photographs of Black White, Sepia, and Colour were so excellent that both my husband and myself were taken by surprise! Since the maternity shoot, we have had Katrina photograph our newborn son, again when he was six months old, and again for his special one year birthday! After each session, Katrina would come over with the proofs (beautifully presented) and she would help us decide on the photos to choose for an album - a wonderful touch! The final album(s) are unbelievable with different shapes on each page that really capture your interest and will remain a lifetime keepsake. Katrina also has other great ideas for your photographs to be presented (i.e. on an easel or a crystal ornament) that make great gifts for your family.

Katrina's service is friendly and fast - leaving you very happy with your decisions! My husband and I welcome Katrina into our home for many more photo sessions to come and we know she will thrive in the career that she loves!

Gratefully, Mike, Karen Jackson Hall


Jocelyn and Ian Guise The pictures that Katrina took of our wedding not only captured the moments that I will remember forever, but also some very special times that I wasn't able to remember after the whirlwind of our wedding day. We felt that she captured the way we feel about each other and the love amongst our entire (now very extended) family. She was able to put the entire bridal party and our families at ease on a very hectic day. When little things went wrong, as they often do, she dealt with it professionally and with ease. We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos. - Jocelyn and Ian Guise


Andrea and Christian Gailbraith One of life's greatest moments is your wedding day. I am very pleased that Katrina was able to share our special day with us. We have so many wonderful pictures that our friends and family are able to look back on and enjoy. She was even able to get Christian to smile! The pictures were beautifully done and presented in a very professional manner. We will always remember that special day and the memories captured in our photographs. - Andrea and Christian Gailbraith


Bettina Hoffman & Steve Doyle Katrina is very professional but also a very patient and fun person. I think that she has great artistic vision. What I like most about my session is that I never felt rushed or pressured into any pose. She did wonderful work with our pregnancy pictures. At first, I was quite nervous, but she made me feel comfortable and relaxed. The shots turned out great. Katrina captured truly magical moments on film for us and I am so thankful to have this beautiful keepsake of such a special time in my life. She returned when our twins were two months old and this session was also very special. Katrina really took a lot of time and care to get the most wonderful pictures. She had really great ideas and she also listened to ours. She was great at including the babies' big sister as well. She made Josee feel just as special and important and it really shows in the photographs. Most importantly Katrina made our photo sessions a fun experience. I will definitely recommend her to my friends. - Bettina Hoffman

Bettina Hoffman & Steve Doyle My experience with Katrina was a fun and relaxing couple of days. The pregnancy sitting was a new and exciting experience. Katrina put us both at ease and made the whole session a lot of fun. Her professional attitude and vision helped us expand on what we were looking for. With the birth of our twin daughters there was no question on who we were going to call. We set a date and Katrina worked around our busy schedule as well as the newborns. She spent several hours at our home taking the time to make the most of the experience for us. I would recommend Katrina to my family and friends. As a matter of fact I already have.
Keep up the good work Katrina.

Steve Doyle
