About Brooklyn Kate Photo

Brooklyn Pater

Owner and Lead Photographer

Hi, I'm Brooklyn — the photographer behind Brooklyn Kate Photo. I fell in love with wedding photography for the in between moments: the nervous laugh before the ceremony, the glance no one else catches. That's what I chase. I shoot on a mix of digital and film, giving my work a timeless, editorial feel over a trendy one. I recently moved my business to Chicago, though I still travel for destination weddings all over the world! Every wedding is different, and I love learning each couple's story first. My approach is relaxed and unobtrusive, so you can be present while I capture it all. If my style feels like a fit, I'd love to connect.

What sets me apart is how I show up on your day: quietly, watching for the in-between moments rather than directing every shot. I won't make your wedding revolve around the camera. Instead, I move through it, capturing laughter, brushed fingertips, tears you didn't expect, so the day feels like memory, not performance. Every package includes a second photographer, plus Super 8 and 35mm available as add ons, for a timeless, textured feel most photography can't replicate.

    The most amazing way to remember our day!

    From our first conversation, Brooklyn Kate Photo made it clear she understood what we wanted for our wedding day. She communicated every step of the process with ease and kept us on schedule when things got hectic, which we really appreciated. Brooklyn captured both the candid moments that unfolded naturally and the specific shots we had envisioned, delivering photos that felt meaningful and true to our story. Her documentary style of photography showed the real emotion and joy of the day without feeling forced or overly posed. What impressed us most was how she managed to capture our vision even better than we could imagine it ourselves. We can't recommend her highly enough to couples looking for a photographer who is organized, responsive, and genuinely talented at her craft.

    Brooklyn is nothing short of flexible, dedicated, and kind. She was patient with us as we navigated the hectic schedule of wedding planning, plus a few personal family matters. When helping decide on a location for photos, Brooklyn kindly messaged venues on our behalf and shared all information promptly with us. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with her. Please use her, not only for her beautiful work, but in knowing you’ll be in good, good hands. ❤️

    BOOK YOUR SESSION NOW!!! I have never done a photoshoot before but Brooklyn helped my vision for grad photos turn into a reality! She was extremely accommodating from the very start and offered support every step of the way. From hyping me up in between poses to letting me test out silly photo ideas, she has made this experience beyond wonderful. I could not recommend anyone more for a fun, creative, and most importantly comfortable photoshoot.

    I couldn’t have asked for better professional photography experiences than the ones I’ve had with Brooklyn. I keep coming back to her business because her work has never not blown me away. It’s not just the quality of the photos—which are consistently some of the BEST, and I mean the BEST photos I have ever seen—it was the holistic experience of working with her and witnessing the fruit of her creative process. She doesn’t overlook a single variable or detail, is swift and prepared, timely, and simply wonderful in spirit. I’ve done an individual and a couples shoot with her, and she made me/us feel so confident and comfortable, understanding my vision without me even needing to fully explain it. There’s no better feeling than when a photographer just gets what you’re seeing in your mind and is equipped with the vision + skill to bring it to life.
