Let me capture your life through photographs.
All about Katie Mae
Born in California and now calling Minnesota home, I’m a mom of two who loves adventure and connection. I’ve always believed that the best stories are found off the beaten path, and I’ll happily follow wherever your love story takes you — from mountaintops to coastlines.
You can usually find me photographing in the cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul, and San Diego, or chasing sunsets along the California coast and exploring national parks. My work has taken me to beautiful celebrations across California, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Arizona, Arkansas and Spain.
For me, photography isn’t just about the images — it’s about the experience, the journey, and the story we create together. If you’re dreaming of a destination wedding or an adventurous elopement or just family photos, I’d love to come along and tell your story wherever it unfolds.
Katie Mae
I’m a lover of all moments in life — the big milestones, the quiet moments, and everything raw and real in between. My passion is capturing genuine emotion, the kind that makes you feel something every time you look back. Whether it’s the wind in your hair, a teary first look, or laughter echoing across the dance floor, I’m there for it all, camera in hand and heart wide open.
"Katie is truly a one of a kind photographer! She has shot everything from our engagement, to wedding abroad in Spain & every little event in between now. Her eye for unique angles, shots, and beautiful poses really brings every shoot to life! I couldn’t be more thankful to rely on Katie to capture memories that last a lifetime!!!!"
"Katie photographed our wedding this August and she truly captured it perfectly! She made us laugh the whole time and directed everything smoothly. Her photos represent us as a couple so well! I wanted a photographer whose style was intimate and she did just that! Her editing was excellent and she gave us a wide range of photos! Katie is not only an amazing photographer but she's an amazing person! She became a friend through the whole process! I highly recommend her to anyone!!"
"We have truly been blessed having Katie as our family photographer from the very beginning starting with our son's birth to our family sessions and now maternity shoots with our second baby! She knows how to pose you and is so easy to work with! She definitely will make you feel comfortable and at ease! We will forever get to cherish these photos from Katie for the rest of our lives! We can't wait to see what other magic she will create."
