Kate Whitmore Photography | Modern. Unique. Captivating. bio picture

Oh, hello!

Thanks for visiting the Kate Whitmore Photography blog.  It's so good to see you here!

I'm Kate, a wedding & lifestyle photographer living in Columbus, Georgia.  I reside in a cute little apartment with my husband, my support, and the force behind me becoming the awesome photographer I want to be--Brett.   He also serves as my incredible assistant and the best 3rd & 4th eyes I could ask for when it comes to shooting.

Craving a little more about us?
-We love The Office.
-Sunday naps make us happy.
-We like to dance ridiculously when riding in the car.
-We are originally from the great state of Tennessee.
-We hate making the bed.
-Our idea of a date night is dinner, ice cream, & hanging out at home with a good movie (or The Office).
-You will hear us quoting FRIENDS almost daily.

Josephine just makes my heart happy. She has the sweetest little face, gorgeous eyes, and a presence that just makes me melt. Her preciousness (yep, I said preciousness) puts her at the top of the charts for my favorite session ever! Such a great session that Brett probably couldn’t count how many times I have squealed out of happiness over the last few days while editing her pictures.

Without further ado, enjoy the images!
-KW.

and these two are the sweetest of the bunch. love these parents.

6 months

On August 1, 2009, B & I moved to Columbus, Georgia.
Yesterday marked 6 months since we have been here.

And it must be showing because I drove home from work without having to think about where I was supposed to turn. Completely subconscious.
It was a big day for me. & a nice way to [accidentally] celebrate 6 months.

Ah, the sibling love.

This weekend, Brett & I braved the Nashville snow to see our family. That’s a story for a completely different post.
For now, I wanted to share this picture. It has zero snow in it. But it was taken while there was tons of snow & ice covering the Smyrna ground, and we had a chance to hang out with the oh-so-fun Stew kids.

Emery: Hey Bradley, look into this light.
Bradley looks. I mean, what 3-year old doesn’t listen to his older sister?
Parker takes a picture.

And this is the result.

The most hilarious part about this?
-Emery did NOT know a speedlight leave white splotches in your eyes when you look at it. (Brett can tell you so…I don’t know how many times he has been looking in my direction when I’m shooting & the flash goes off RIGHT in his face).
-Parker did not take a picture BECAUSE Bradley looked into the light. She just happened to click at the perfect moment.
-IT DID NOT PHASE BRADLEY! I mean, look at this! Surely this would blind anyone else. But not Bradley…he’s invincible. He’d probably tell you so, too (but with a 3-year old’s vocabulary…which is way cuter than using a word like invincible).

Leah & Ryan | Nashville, Tennessee Engagement Photographer

I love when I’m around two people who are so completely in love.
Leah & Ryan are, without a doubt, madly in love. I can’t wait to tell the story of their wedding day.

Enjoy.
-KW.

Oh. My. Goodness.
This 3-month-old is just beautiful. I could rave about her all day. But instead, I’ll save that for the big post and leave you with this little peek for now.

Make you melt? Yeah, me too.
