About Us

Hi, I’m Kate Gardner! I’m a personal branding photographer and graphic designer with 20 years of experience. Based in Waxahachie, Texas, I began my professional journey in 2007, specializing in wedding photography. Driven by a passion for capturing love, I dove in headfirst and completely self-taught myself photography.

After 10 years of shooting weddings, I realized my main passion was working with clients one-on-one and building relationships that helped clients feel confident and see themselves in a new light. I then started to focus on headshots, boudoir, and personal branding photography.

I specialize in creating modern and elegant images that help business builders stand out, including professionals from real estate agents and beauty experts to corporate CEOs. My goal is to make my clients feel at ease and confident during their shoot, providing personalized coaching and positive feedback. Whether we're in my cozy home studio, an outdoor location, or your office with my mobile setup, I ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience.
