Hi I'm Kara! An Austin, TX Family Photographer

I’m a heart-driven, fun-loving Austin family photographer who believes in margaritas on the weekend and cheering on the UT Longhorns on Saturdays. When I’m not chasing my toddler around the park, I’m probably surviving on coffee and snacks I pretend are for the kids.
I started in 2019 with elopements, but family photography stole my heart—messy, loud, real, and full of love. I capture authentic moments and the perfectly imperfect chaos that makes your family uniquely yours.

Life moves fast, and kids grow even faster. Don’t let these messy, loud, real moments slip away—your family photos will hold all the love and connection forever.

Maternity


Pregnancy is a season of love, hope, and anticipation. I love creating images that celebrate this beautiful chapter of your story.


02.


Family


Welcome to my happy place: a collection of giggles, snuggles, and all the little moments that make family life beautiful. These aren’t just photos—they’re memories you’ll actually want to frame.

Seniors


Senior year is full of big milestones, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime. I love capturing each senior’s unique personality, style, and spirit in photos you’ll treasure long after the caps and gowns are packed away.

Testimonials

“Kara first photographed me for my bridal photos and I have never felt more relaxed, comfortable, and completely myself in front of a camera before. She’s so bubbly, encouraging, and creates an enjoyable atmosphere while she’s shooting that allows for her subjects to shine through the lense. Her photos are beautifully edited and you’ll have a hard time narrowing down your favorites. I would highly recommended Kara as your photographer for your life events.”
