Behind the Lens

As a part-time photographer, I believe it is important for you to know who I am and what I stand for. For the time being, photography is not my way of making a living; I do it to have fun! (No, that does not mean that I will do your pictures for free - this is an expensive hobby ... keep reading!)

Define "Part-time":

For me, part-time means I fit photography in wherever I can! This also means that aside from encouraging people to 'like' my page on Facebook (www.facebook.com/photographybykat) I operate strictly from word of mouth. I schedule sessions around my professional and personal life and try to limit the amount of sessions I schedule per month to make sure I don't neglect other imporant aspects of my life.

I am a full-time Financial Accountant, which means I work from 7am until about 3 or 4pm Monday through Friday - every week. In about a week I will be finishing up my Masters in Business Administration((Hallelujah))!! I am also an active member of my church and value family time!

My Mission:

Simply put, I want to provide you with quality photos (without putting a huge dent in your wallet)! I don't spend unnecessary money on packaging and I don't automatically include prints in your session. This means that you can choose to order prints through me (from a professional photo lab), or you can your CD and get them printed where ever you like! I spend most of the money I make on supplies and saving to upgrade my equipment so I can give you even better photos!

Basically, I want you to have fun during your photo session and provide you with photos you are proud of! Please take a few minutes to check out the rest of my site, if you haven't already. Emails and questions are always welcome!
