Kate & Keith
Partners in business and in bed.
We are driven by values, connections, and experiences (+ fresh air!)
We met through photography, but what cemented our union is a shared love of family, being advocates for the environment, and our lack of desire towards material. Our most cherished memories involve a dog, creative plant-based eats, loved ones and opting outside.
Yes, we still nerd out over some things in between (cappuccino makers, electric cars, visiting distant cultures) but our route to happiness is pretty darn simple. Continuing to learn, staying open minded and embracing the uncomfortable is our spice in life, and the source for many of our ventures.
As for photography, let’s get real. If it weren’t for YOU, we wouldn’t be excited about our job. Whether you are professionals passionate about your careers, are in the 4k White Mountain club, found love later in life, or can’t be defined by traditional labels, it’s YOU that makes “Kate & Keith Photography.” We enjoy making connections with our couples, in fact, it’s a huge part of why you’ll love your photos, when you feel comfortable with us, and we’re vibing well with you, that energy comes through in the photos.
So if you’re Wandering around this website and don’t think we’re the kind of people you’ll get along with, or if you get an off vibe from us on the phone, feel free to ask us for recommendations for another photographer, we’d be happy to refer you to another photographer that may be a better fit.
Married since 2017
We photograph every session together!
Kate
I grew up on an organic farm in New Jersey.
Keith
I grew up playing in the woods of Southern NH.
What does working with us look like? Professionalism is at the backbone, but becoming friends is a huge side benefit. It’s an intimate experience having a camera pointed your way. One you shouldn’t think twice about with us. We get to work quickly to ease the mood and boost the energy, which in turn produces authentic photos. If you have questions about about the session, the plan, or just want to go over things to ease your mind, we’re here to help.
It’s all about building on the joy and reducing the stress!

Photographers with a Mission
We are lucky to enjoy down time in our business. During the winter months we devote our energies to giving back through various nonprofit work. Each year we target different organizations to tap into, from racial justice to food sovereignty and waste reduction (to name a few.) With each travel, we find a way to give back to the land and people we visit. Tree planting, beach cleanups, or donating our videography & photo services. It's not something we could do without your support. If you feel strongly about the same issues, know that part of your photography investment is going towards our continued work.
