Authentic Radiance Hi, I’m Katie Butler! A wedding and portrait photographer based out of the Kalamazoo, MI but would love to travel!

My mission is to capture God’s beautiful creation: You! To capture the real and authentic stories of couples and singles in a natural yet unique way in order to reveal their authentic radiance and to document a moment in their story. It is my honor to photograph something that God so perfectly put together: He’s the author, I am just the photographer.

Mr. + Mrs. Boyd 🥂🫶🏼✨😆

Abi and Jack’s day was simply amazing! Their love for each other and the Lord was so so evident. And it was so fun seeing how well their day reflected their personalities! They stuck the wedding rings under two random chairs during the ceremony to include their people more, had the most epic entrance, the sweetest speeches from friends, the most fun first dance and parent dances (Abi and her dad’s was next level!!), and such a fun dance floor.

It was an honor to be a part of their start to forever 🥹 More to come!!

Photos from Grace and Kyle’s Proposal! ☺️✨🫶🏼

Still beaming with joy!

The proposal I’ve been dreaming of capturing for years!!

Grace and I have been friends since 1st grade (so 20 years now😆) and what an honor it was to be a part of this moment!! Elementary school us wouldn’t have dreamed this is where we’d end up.

After 9 minutes of ducking behind grass and trying to quietly walk in a creek without her hearing me (😂), it was a success!

Photos will come tomorrow!

Molly + Owen are MARRIED!!✨

Many tears were shed as I watched Molly, who is like another little sister to me, marry her best friend.

Their day was full of pure joy, care, and love🫶🏼 Molly and Owen love their people and that was so evident! Owen wrote a letter to the bridesmaids and to Molly that had everyone in tears, they had the sweetest thank you speech before dinner, and dismissed each table so they could personally say hi to everyone.

Still on such a high from their day! Cannot wait to see where the Lord takes them☺️
