…who turn your life into art.

I’m Kate

YOur wedding photographer

Hey there! I’m Kate. I’m the girl that has an obsession with photographing couples.

When I’m not behind my camera, you can often find me drinking tea, learning new business skills, hanging out with my family and friends and church community, listening to a random conglomeration of music, and designing websites. I look forward to connecting with you!


Kate has spent the past 5+ years honing her craft as a Portland Wedding Photographer. She has documented over 100 love stories, and finds great joy in helping her clients feel beautiful on camera and documenting memories that will last a lifetime. Her goal is to create lasting art by documenting memories in an authentic manner.

I’m Travis

YOur wedding Videographer

Travis is a wedding filmmaker with a keen eye for cinematic detail, capturing emotion in every frame. Blending artistry and authenticity, he turns love stories into timeless keepsake films. Travis is here to document the milestone of marriage for each Aspen & Birch client.

I’m KaCie

Your Admin and Marketing Assistant

Hi I’m Kacie and I love running, embroidery, beautiful photos, and hanging out with my husband. I currently reside in Austin, Texas.


Kacie runs many of the behind-the-scenes marketing and admin pieces of Aspen & Birch. Part of the team since 2024, she makes sure you have the best client experience as we work together to meet your photo dreams.

Kate’s love for photos started early.

Growing up, my mom was an art teacher, and I had the privilege of learning almost every major art form from her.

Photography fascinated me. I loved how there was always something new and interesting that I could learn, and how my photos were able to bring people so much joy.

In 2019, Kate started Aspen & Birch while attending college. She began by learning portraiture, and then moved on to weddings.

Her educational background is in business a project management. She has worked in manufacturing and government project management, and is currently working as an office manager at a local non-profit that specializes in financial literacy and food security.

Kate continues to photograph weddings alongside her corporate work because of her love for the art. She has now been a professional photographer for over five years, and has had the honor of documenting over 100 love stories.

Kacie joined the team in 2024, to help us better serve our clients and reach new growth as a business. She was an A&B client before she joined our team, and has a passion for analytics, marketing, and each client’s experience.

Travis joined the team in 2025, after he and Kate had worked many weddings alongside each other. He brings a wealth of knowledge with his background in commercial and wedding cinema. He has a passion for artistry, and is excited to walk alongside each A&B client as we document your story.
