Behind the Lens…

Hey, I’m Emma Cate!

I am a teacher turned mom turned full time wedding photographer. Your girl is a huge hopeless romantic and capturing all the most magical moments in your life is what fuels my soul! From engagements and weddings, to newborn shoots and senior photos. No matter the occasion, I will ensure you have a beautiful piece of that day to carry with you always.

How did I get here?

I was born and raised in Houston, Texas. After a year in North Carolina, a change of heart and a summer spent in Austria, I found my way to SMU in Dallas, TX where I met the cutest football player I’d ever seen. I graduated with a degree in Psychology and Early Childhood education (Along with my MRS - oops sorry mom!)

We currently live in Waco, Texas with our two amazing daughters Kinsley Rose and Everlee Rae. Family is everything to me and my clients become my family. I go above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable, are taken care of and every detail you want captured get memorialized forever. I have way to much energy for my own good but I make a great hype girl for your big day and I cannot wait to make some magic with YOU!
