About Katie Richard Photography

Katie Richard Photography

Head Photographer

Photography, for me, is about connection—capturing the perfect light, the raw emotion, and the beauty that makes you uniquely you. Whether we’re exploring a misty mountain trail or embracing the golden glow of sunset, I thrive on creating imagery that tells your story in the most authentic way.

I approach every wedding with a blend of artistic vision and calm, supportive energy. My goal is not only to create beautiful photographs, but to make the entire experience feel effortless and meaningful. With a background in fine art photography and years of experience photographing weddings and elopements in the Blue Ridge Mountains, I know how to work with natural light, scenic landscapes, and real moments to create images that feel timeless.

From our first interaction with Katie Richard Photography, we were impressed by their clear, concise, and respectful communication style. They were always punctual in responding to our questions and requests. The quality of their work is simply exquisite - their aesthetic is perfectly boho, moody, and romantic. They had so many great ideas for unique and aesthetic photographs that truly captured the essence of our special day. Katie and her team were also incredibly friendly and funny, making the whole photography process fun and enjoyable. We couldn't be happier with the beautiful photos that now serve as cherished memories of our wedding day.

Our experience with Katie was fantastic from the phone call to explain all our options to calming my nerves when it comes to outfit choices. She did great with our moody teenagers while dealing with our adjustment to the temperature coming from FL to NC in March. Our pictures came out fantastic and would 100% book again ❤️
