We met at Sunken Gardens in Shelbyville, a place Gracie grew up visiting, which made their session feel even more meaningful. The gardens created the perfect backdrop, but these two made capturing their love feel effortless. It didn’t take long to see how much they genuinely enjoy being together and care for one another.
Spending the evening with Gracie and Wyatt was such a joy, and I already can’t wait to celebrate them again when they tie the knot later this summer!
Gracie and Wyatt’s engagement session was such a sweet evening from start to finish

Over the last 15 years of documenting my couples on the best day of their lives, I’ve met so many amazing people who quickly turned into friends. I hope that can be our story, too.
On the rare occasion that I’m not capturing a special moment, you can catch me spending my time with an incredible man who makes me laugh until I cry. I also tend to believe that a house is not a home until paw prints paint the floors. And admittedly, I cry at most movies, especially the romantic ones. Editing days consist of Dr. Pepper and take-out, while days off require country drives and visiting local wineries to listen to live music and take in a golden sunset. Hands down, it’s one of the best parts about Central Illinois.
A photographer who’s passionate about natural light, making sure my couples feel cared for, iced white mochas, and my boys Dustin, Murphy, and Auggie.
Hey, I’m Kate!
