The Experience
I always say I have the best “job” in the world because it has hardly felt like work.
Every person I have been able to meet on the other side of my camera has changed me for the better in one way or another, and I hope I can do that for you too. I want you to be able to show up completely as yourself, with hearts wide open. I want you to feel comfy, be yourself, and be the beautiful person you are. I want you to be able to be free and present on your wedding day, and together we will create endless stories. Let me help you remember it for always. And this is where my heart begins to beat. Each of my weddings, my couples and my lifestyle sessions are unique because no two people are the same. I look to these people in front of my lens to be inspired, and I’m always just that - inspired beyond belief. Your day is full of surprises, spontaneity and real moments … and I’m ready to document each one, just as they unfold. The process is about collaboration - about being the best team. I don’t believe in sessions that are a one-size-fits-all! I believe all of my clients deserve a personable experience as unique as they are, that tells their story authentically.At the end of it all, I want you to have gorgeous, timeless artwork that you are proud to display in your home. You're not just getting a photographer - but, a friend! A friend to be there through all life's biggest moments.
You are drawn to honest and heartfelt moments;
That are timeless, classic, and romantic.
You want a personable experience rather than just a transaction.
You have a “go with the flow,” laid back attitude, and want to be able to “be present” on your wedding/session day with your family.
You value moments spent with each other, and your family and friends, being completely yourselves, and having fun with each
other rather than feeling like you are posing for a photo shoot.
You want to be able to look back on your day and remember how much fun you had, belly laughs,
You always have a love looking through albums. You are tired of your precious memories collecting cyber dust and value tangible artwork to display in your homes.
You are joyful, easygoing, honest, genuine, and deeply care for others

"Katie is more than just a photographer, she’s a visionary, a creative, and most importantly a friend. There’s no one else I would have trusted to make my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She has an amazing eye and an incredible talent for capturing emotion. Katie gave us so many photos for us to cherish for all the days of our lives and have also given us an amazing person we can call our friend. Katie was so collaborative and reliable during the entire planning process and went above and beyond to take extra shots that weren’t captured on our wedding day after the fact. It’s hard to believe we weren’t her only wedding given how much of her time she gifted us. If you’re looking for someone to truly capture your day and to capture the essence and emotion of the people you love then hire Katie! You’ll also be hiring an amazing human being, someone who you’ll want to have with you every second of your wedding day!

"Katie did a fantastic job with our engagement shoot and capturing our wedding. She caught so many special moments and we are so glad we chose her to be a part of our day! She was also so responsive in our communication before the wedding and really got to know us. The sneak peeks we’ve received are stunning and it will be so difficult to narrow down our favourites to get printed. Thank you so much Katie!"

Cody and I will be writing a bit of a novel because the relationship we have with Katie is such a beautiful one and herself and everyone should know how amazing Katie and her photography are!!! Katie has captured mine and my husband’s relationship and love for the past 8 years. Katie is the only photographer we trust to capture our love story and any special moments. Katie has one of the most beautiful personalities we have ever met. She makes you feel so confident, comfortable and she allows you to let loose and have fun! She wants to capture your moments as organically as possible and when she does, those are our favourite type of photos because she captures the genuine and real emotions. Katie takes the upmost pride in her photography and wants to ensure her clients walk away feeling really positive about their experience and their gallery. Katie has blown us away with every shoot we have done with her.Katie loves photography and it shines through every photo she captures. She always go above and beyond for her clients. We truly can’t say enough about how incredible of a photographer and person Katie is.

"When we met Katie, we immediately clicked with her energy. Katie was an essential part of our day, and I could not imagine it without her. She was always up for phone calls to brainstorm ideas, and helped me plan out a special first look with my now husband. She scouted the venue in advance, and made a story board to help us think of different looks to capture at our venue. At our elopement, Katie effortless captured all moments, our laughs, our nervous smiles, and the moment we were husband and wife. She made sure everyone was comfortable the entire day. She has a great sense of humour and was able to keep us laughing and captured real, authentic moments. I highly recommend Katie Crane Photography!"

"Working with Katie and her team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! It was a whirlwind to plan, and cancel, and re-plan a wedding through the pandemic, but Katie was flexible and so supportive throughout, working with us to come up with creative solutions and timelines to ensure our day went smoothly and we made many beautiful memories. We just got our album back and we are in love with the beautiful work that she and her team did. She is so kind and dedicated to her clients and her work. The pictures and video are beautiful and we feel so grateful to have connected with Katie!"

On the day of, Katie made us feel super comfortable. She captured both "in the moment" and "posed" photos. We couldn't stop laughing the entire session.

"I am beyond grateful that I chose Katie as my wedding photographer. Not only is she one of the most humble, funny, and easy going people I know, she is also amazingly talented. Katie and her team were so professional, knowledgeable and fun to work with. Getting married during covid was very stressful, but Katie made everything run so smoothly throughout the whole process and was so helpful the day of my actual wedding. We developed such a good relationship that has now become a friendship. I would highly recommend Katie to any person looking for high quality, natural, and whimsical photos to capture their special day."

Katie is so attentive and you can tell right from the first time you meet her that photography and capturing life's special moments is her passion and she pours her whole heart into it! She makes you feel so at ease and so comfortable while shooting as well. This was our first time having professional photos taken and we felt like we were spending the day with a friend.

Katie will start out as your photographer but quickly become a friend! She managed to capture the best moments! Our family adored Katie from the moment she arrived for the getting ready photos right through to the end of the night when dancing started. She made everyone feel so comfortable in-front of the camera. She also somehow managed to go unnoticed throughout the reception to get some of my favourite candid photos of the night showcasing the love and joy that was pouring through the room. We are transported right back to our special day every time we look at our photos and have Katie & her team to thank for that. She is a wonderful, kind and genuine person who wants nothing more then to make sure your day is captured perfectly, her talent is unmatched! I would highly recommend Katie to anyone!

"We had booked Katie for our engagement photos and wedding in 2020. With the pandemic it was very stressful and difficult to work dates out. Her communication was on point from day 1. She was constantly keeping in contact at the right times to make sure we were happy and still moving forward with our wedding date. On the date of our wedding Katie and Rachael were on point and made sure we were happy. They found all the little details needed to capture on our special day. We couldn't be any happier choosing Katie to capture out special day. Thank you very much Katie!"

"Right from the first day that Katie and I connected with each other over email, she has been a dream to work with. So detail oriented, professional yet personable, and so so creative and patient. Our friends and family who met Katie and her team absolutely adored them as well – they felt like family by the end of the day!We received our wedding day photos (in record time, I might add) and we were blown away with the quality and quantity of the work she did! Everything is BEAUTIFUL.
We never expected our “Covid wedding day” to be as amazing and special as it turned out to be and one of the main reasons for that was because of Katie and her team! We truly hit the jackpot with this team – I would recommend Katie to anyone!!"

"Meeting with Katie was spectacular- it was like hanging out with an old friend. She always goes above and beyond, is incredibly professional but also friendly, flexible, and an overall dream to work with from start to finish! Katie and her team got RAVE reviews from our family. You could tell they absolutely love what they do. Katie made everyone feel confident and comfortable in photos. Katie ensured they got as many photos as humanly possible on our wedding day and made sure nothing was missed. She took the best candids and the most beautiful posed portraits. Our gallery is full of photos of our families and ourselves that we will cherish forever. I cannot wait to work with Katie again in the future and I highly recommend any bride hiring Katie as their wedding photographer!!"

"We are so glad we met Katie and had the pleasure of hiring her as our wedding photographer. Katie has a way of making posing for hundreds of pictures quite entertaining and enjoyable. On our wedding day, Katie blended into the background. We barely knew she was there. This is a real credit to Katie because she captured dozens if not hundreds of intimate close up moments that we would have never thought possible without being intrusive. Some wedding photos make you feel like you are right back
there on your day. That is definitely the case with Katie’s photography. Katie is amazing! We feel it’s definitely a business of the heart with Katie. We couldn’t imagine hiring anyone else to shoot our life! We look forward to working with Katie for all of our exciting major life events. "
