“I’ve worked with many family photographers over the years and Kateland is one of the best. She is engaging and observant at the right moments and has the special ability to capture that fleeting moment of beauty and emotion, with a toddler, no less. Highly recommend!”

“How do you capture a feeling? How do you capture a moment perfectly? Kateland was able to capture precisely that. She captured all of our personalities and the genuine smiles and looks. She is warm and easy to open up to, and my family felt comfortable with her from the beginning. I highly recommend.”
