YOUR STORY, ARTFULLY TOLD.

Hello, I’m Katie Edwards - an Ojai-based wedding photographer with over a decade of experience and a passion for capturing love stories. I approach every wedding with curiosity, calmness and purpose. Inspired first and foremost by your love, I’m guided by the light, emotion, and rhythm of your day to create honest, editorial-style images you’ll treasure for years to come. My priority is ensuring that you are fully present to enjoy every moment, while I thoughtfully and artistically preserve it.

Specializing in making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, I aim to deliver the feeling of your memories back to you. 

Let’s get this party started.

“Katie is everything we were looking for in a wedding photographer and more - she's insanely talented, professional, efficient, easy to work with, thoughtful, creative, and makes everyone around her feel so comfortable. She's a master with lighting, angles, and posing, and she has this magical way of capturing the full spectrum of emotions at weddings.”

— Amanda Palchak

SO HAPPY YOU ARE HERE

Hi, I’m Katie.

I document weddings with an editorial eye and a deeply human approach. My work is rooted in connection, capturing what unfolds naturally rather than directing or perfecting it. The emotion, the atmosphere, the subtle moments in between.

I believe the most meaningful images are the ones that feel lived-in and timeless. The kind you return to years from now and remember exactly how it all felt.

With a calm, thoughtful presence, I create space for you to be fully present while your story is preserved with intention and artistry. I take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every celebration receives my full attention.

I can’t wait to meet you
