“See Water. See Mountains. See Bears.”


You started speaking sentences three days ago. So I started documenting. I can’t miss anything.


 You started speaking sentences three days ago. So I started documenting. I can't miss anything.

You asked to see water, so we did.

You also asked to see mountains, but the hills were all we had..


You asked to see bears, but I told you there weren't any at the park.

 Your little puckered lip melted me.


All the little details are what I am trying to remember. 

Your smile, your laugh, your voice, and you holding onto me.

    Wonderful images Catie. Simply wonderful. And remember to the wee ones every hill can be a mountain and every pebble a lump of gold. Ask Dan about the sunflowers that reached as far as the bean stocks did for Jack…………… 😉

    Beautiful, Cate. You made me do a cry…

  3. Kayla says:

    I love the little moments you captured. I felt like I was on the journey through the woods with you two. Beautiful work, Cate!

    As always, beautiful!

BEHIND THE LENS

MEET CATE

Photographer, artist, mother, occasional painter, inspired by music videos, film, and nostalgia.

At a young age, I was engrossed with storytelling. Writing short stories on a thrifted type writer. Filming music videos to my favorite songs. A school project wasn’t just papier-mâché, it was a production with costumes, music, and visual effects. Now, with photographs, documenting a wedding day of all its moments of little touches, side glances, stolen kisses, hidden tears, and belly laughs. I can’t but help but bottle up the day, transport a memory from a feeling to something you can hold onto.
