Kate Donovan Photography

The beautiful thing about photographs isn’t just what they look like… it’s what they make you feel.

A photo can bring you right back to the moment — the laugh you forgot happened, the way someone looked at you, the chaos, the calm, the people beside you. The little in-between moments that would’ve faded with time suddenly come rushing back.

Years from now, these won’t just be pictures. They’ll be reminders of how it all felt.

Talk about making it personal… these two threw the coolest night-before welcome party. Perfect weather, signature drinks, relaxed vibes, and all their favorite people in one place. The best way to kick off wedding weekend. Happy Wedding Day you two… see you soon!

The perfect example of poise, patience, and grace. Mitch & Demi never let Saturday’s storm “ dampen” their spirits for a single moment. Their genuine smiles, kindness, and unwavering love and joy set the tone for the entire day, creating an atmosphere that was truly contagious. It was a privilege to witness it.

Can’t wait to celebrate M & D this weekend Wedding season is officially ON and I couldn’t be more excited for all of my couples.

Is there anything better than your baby corgi showing up in a tie on your wedding day?

I’ll forever encourage couples to include their pups in their wedding memories because those are the details that make the day feel personal and true to you.

One thing I prioritize with every couple is making sure we actually have time for those moments. We do multiple planning calls leading up to the wedding so we can intentionally carve out space for the people (and dogs) that are part of your story.

I’m so excited that the 90’s vibe is BACK and finally getting the credit it deserves.

I feel lucky to have been a teenager in the 90’s — no cell phones, more freedom, more simplicity. And THE MUSIC… making mixtapes, burning CDs, discovering bands through my brother or MTV.

Photos of me as a teen are pretty scarce, which somehow makes the ones I do have feel even more meaningful. Fashion felt effortless, summers felt endless, and life just moved a little slower.(from what I remember 🫠

I’ve had this vision for a shoot in my head for a while, and couldn’t have brought it to life without my modern-day and my favorite store .
