"I seriously could not do this with out her, she is such a valuable part of my team! With her editing and film matching — she is the best."

Elyse Hall, Film + Digital Wedding Photographer

"I seriously could not do this with out her, she is such a valuable part of my team! Katie has helped me get my life back so I could be more present at home. Allowing myself more energy to focus on what I love most — shooting! Working with her has made a huge impact, I'm way more balanced, I have more time with family without feeling burned out. 

With her editing + film matching — she is the best. I am a control freak and a perfectionist and she checks all the boxes."

"...pair that GOLD with her innate ability to see color, depth, and contrast and you have a relationship that is invaluable."

Kind words from

Jennefer Wilson, Founder of Kindred Presets

Katie helped me keep a cohesive brand going during one of the craziest seasons of my life and I couldn't be more grateful. Hiring Katie helped me BREATHE so I could make more time for my infant daughter. Her finesse and attention to detail gave me immense peace. I am a control freak about my imagery and Katie fit, seamlessly, into my brand and aesthetic. And I? I got to enjoy my new baby!

She is so kind and intentional. Pair that GOLD with her innate ability to see color, depth, and contrast and you have a relationship that is invaluable. I am PICKY and an editing perfectionist... Katie’s work NEVER had to be tweaked! Once we found our groove, I was free to spend time in other ways. I would recommend Katie to anyone, and have!

"I couldn’t be more thankful for her! Not to mention - she absolutely slays the film matching game!"

Ashley Spangler, Film + Digital Wedding Photographer

I am so glad I decided to outsource my work! Hiring Katie helped me increase my bookings by cutting my turnaround time in half. I was beginning to get into the photographer slump from spending so much time behind my desktop editing. Hiring Katie allowed me to be able to focus on my creativity while shooting and not worry about the amount of time I will spend in Lightroom following each shoot. I am able to surprise my clients with a quick turnaround. I couldn’t be more thankful for her! Not to mention - she absolutely slays the film matching game!

As a new mom, spending time with my little one + family is so so important to me. Katie helps take away the time you spend in the office and gives you those hours back. I would recommend Katie to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed with the post production.

"Katie's course has profoundly impacted my life. She is an expert in the photo editing business, and her course provides everything you need."

Amy Lawson, Course Student

I don't think I can put into words just how valuable this course is. Katie is an expert in the photo editing business and her course reflects that.

She provides absolutely everything you need to get your photo editing business running, while also creating a phenomenal community that I continue to learn from. Additionally, Katie is very genuine and giving with her time. She is usually one of the first to help in the Facebook community with advice. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this course has had a profoundly positive impact on my life.

"She's always provided me with the most beautiful edits, as well as an exceptional level of customer service. "

Jen Rodriguez, Film + Digital Wedding Photographer

I can't say enough wonderful things about my experience working with Katie over the last couple of years. Hiring Katie helped me free up some much needed time in my schedule. She's always provided me with the most beautiful edits, as well as an exceptional level of customer service. She's responsive to emails and questions and my edits are always delivered on time (or sooner)!

Over the years, I've realized how important it is to outsource the parts of my business that I don't LOVE. Film matching is one of those things — it's a time-consuming challenge that can leave me feeling frustrated. Once I started outsourcing my editing to Katie, I was able to free up some much needed time in my day to focus on the parts of my business that I love.

"She makes outsourcing my editing the most positive experience with her excellent communication..."

Becki Smith, Brand & Commercial Photographer

Katie is the best! I tried multiple other editors before I started working with Katie and was always frustrated by one thing or another. Katie's systems made the entire process of working together completely seamless and accomplished my number one goal of SAVING time for myself.

She makes outsourcing my editing the most positive experience with her excellent communication and how she works with me to ensure our editing is always spot on.

"She took the time to truly understand my style and always delivers a seamless gallery that's ready for client delivery"

Laura Kelly, Life Coach + Photographer

I love love love working with Katie! Hiring Katie allowed me to offload one business so that I could start another!

She took the time to truly understand my style and always delivers a seamless gallery that's ready for client delivery. I've been able to add additional revenue streams to my business since outsourcing with Katie and I honestly wish I did it sooner! I love that the turnaround time allowed me to keep my same standards for my clients. To be honest, I wouldn't have been able to outsource if I felt that it jeopardized my workflow but it's 100% a game-changer that I wish I did sooner.

"One word: amazing! Katie's course is so detailed and thorough."

Bec Lloyd, Photo Editor Training Course

One word: amazing! Katie's course is so detailed and thorough. She gives you everything you need to learn editing, set up your business and how to market to target clients. I was already a little familiar with Lightroom but I learnt so much in this course!

I also love systems and organizing, so the way she shows you how to set everything up in the backend really aligns with how I work - I love it!
The best thing though is the support group. Everyone is so lovely and helpful. Katie is in there all the time. She has so much knowledge to share about the industry, it's invaluable.

I've done a lot of online courses over the years, and this is by far the best. Katie has thought of everything and I really wouldn't have been able to start this business without her. Thank you Katie!
