I believe
That family is number one
That my son is my oxygen
That love is a power source
That life is fluid
That smiles change lives
That food is miraculous
That a meal shared tastes better
That cooking is therapy
That truth is freeing
That adventure is limitless
That we are all responsible
That silence is loud
That hearts heal
That coffee is mandatory
That kids are magical
That happy is a choice
That fun is a requirement
That there is always room
That photos are stories and the emotion of those stories is forever.
I am Mary Kate. My journey with my camera started when I was young. It wasn't the technical aspects that intrigued me but the emotional. The movement and light. The love, heartache, joy, peace, connection, and inspiration you can feel from an image is what made me want more. I want to tell a story that can be remembered, and felt as deeply as when it was unfolding.
I'm a mom. It’s the greatest title I've been given, and the most inspirational honor I've known.
I want to find adventure in everyday. I crave that moment when your heart bursts so big you can't believe it's actually happening to you.
I'm a photographer and also a food stylist. To be camera in hand with beautiful food, some good wine, and my people ready to eat is my perfect day.
The biggest moment to the quietest moment....I want to capture it!
