Hi friends and welcome to my world of photography! I’m Kate, a photographer with over 10 years of experience, and I absolutely love capturing heartfelt moments in my images. Originally from Ukraine, I’m now based in Christchurch, New Zealand. My main style focuses on warm, vibrant photos and genuine emotions. From couples + families, to engagements, to weddings + elopements - I hope to be right by your side, capturing every little detail. I am so thankful to have crossed paths with you.

🌸 CHRISTCHURCH BLOSSOM MINI SESSIONS — AVAILABLE NOW 🌸

Blossom season is here, and it never lasts long.

I’m opening a limited number of mini sessions among the beautiful spring blossoms around Christchurch.

Perfect for portraits, couples, families, maternity, or simply some beautiful photos of yourself.

Send me a DM for available dates, locations & details. 

Sometimes you just have to create a little bit of magic for yourself.

The magnolias were far too beautiful not to be photographed, so I grabbed my camera and turned an ordinary evening into a little self-portrait session.

Just me & beautiful blooms.

For me, these little self-portrait sessions are also a way to get to know myself better and learn to accept myself as I am. I try to do one every season, just to capture how I’m growing and changing.

My birthday is only a few weeks away, and getting older has been something I’ve struggled with over the past few years. It’s strange to notice little changes in yourself, a few new wrinkles, and realise just how quickly time moves.

But taking photos of myself somehow brings that joy back. It reminds me to appreciate who I am right now instead of worrying so much about getting older.

You don’t need a special occasion to photograph yourself.

Sometimes, being here, being you, at this exact moment in your life, is reason enough. 🌸

Sincerely yours,

Wedding and Family Photographer | Videographer Christchurch NZ ♥️

Such a beautiful ceremony from Katelyn & Dorian’s wedding day at The Tannery ♥️

I absolutely love how the colours set the whole mood of a wedding. Every celebration has its own atmosphere, its own little details, and its own story - that’s what makes every wedding so unique.

This one had such a stunning vibe!

Lake Tekapo Lupin Weekend is here 🩷

For just a few weeks each summer, Lake Tekapo becomes something truly special - purple and pink lupins, turquoise water and the Southern Alps all around you.

Normally, booking a professional photoshoot in Lake Tekapo can become quite expensive, especially when a photographer needs to travel there specifically for your session and travel costs are added on top.

So this year, I wanted to make it a little more accessible.

Instead of travelling to Lake Tekapo for individual sessions, I’m dedicating two full days exclusively to Lupin Photoshoots - 28 & 29 November 2026.

By bringing several sessions together over one weekend, I can offer them for my regular photoshoot price without any additional travel fee to Lake Tekapo 🩷

$550 • 1 Hour • 50+ Edited Photos

Perfect for couples, families, maternity sessions, engagements - or simply for anyone who wants beautiful photographs surrounded by one of New Zealand’s most iconic landscapes.

You’ll also receive my outfit & styling guide, and optional video & drone add-ons are available.

Only a limited number of sessions are available across these two days.

More information is available on my website - link in bio.

To book, you can enquire through the website or simply send me a DM on Instagram.

The days may feel long but the years are incredibly short.

Children grow faster than we ever expect. One day they’re tiny and before you know it they’ve changed completely.

Photographs become more than just pictures - they become time capsules, a way to hold onto the moments that would otherwise fade.

This cosy in-home session with these gorgeous twin sisters reminded me exactly why I love family photography so much!!

Which photo is your favourite? ♥️

Instead of getting ready indoors, the groom chose to spend the morning surrounded by fresh air and his closest mates. 🥹

These are the moments that make a wedding day unforgettable - not just the big milestones but the laughs, conversations and memories shared before it all begins.

These are the memories that deserve to be captured just as much as the ceremony itself!
