J Kathryn Photography

1,000+ REASONS TO SAY THANK YOU. 🤍

94 days ago, I started over.

After 19 years of building J Kathryn Photography, my social media presence was unexpectedly taken away — along with years of photographs, memories, and a community I had spent nearly two decades building.

Starting over wasn't exactly how I imagined celebrating 19 years in business.

But here we are.

✨1,000+ of you. In just 94 days.✨

And honestly? I'm so incredibly grateful!

Every follow. Every like. Every comment. Every inquiry. Every past client who found me again. Every person who has shared my work with a friend.

You have reminded me that a business built on beautiful photographs is really built on the people behind them.

So, as a little thank you, ✨September is officially CLIENT APPRECIATION MONTH at J Kathryn Photography. ✨

I've put together some very special September pricing on sessions — all the details are in the graphic below.

And because I wanted to do a little something EXTRA to celebrate...

🍂 ONE FAMILY WILL WIN A COMPLIMENTARY FALL FAMILY SESSION!🍂

19 years behind the camera.
94 days starting over.
1,000+ of you standing here with me.

I don't take a single one of you for granted.

Thank you for helping me rebuild something I thought I had lost.

Here's to the next chapter. 🥂

Timeless imagery. Beautifully told.

✨Timeless beauty✨

Honored to be entrusted with capturing such a beautiful season of motherhood. Thank you for allowing me to preserve these timeless memories for you.

It’s Wedding Day for these two! What a great way to end a beautifully warm August!

September will bring something you might not want to miss so stay tuned!

A wedding isn't just about the couple—it's about the generations that made their story possible. 🥹

Every time I see grandparents on the dance floor or sharing a quiet moment, I’m reminded of why I pick up my camera. These aren’t just photos; they’re heirlooms. Capturing the wisdom, the joy, and the legacy of the ones who paved the way is a privilege I’ll never take for granted.

Let’s settle this. 😂🎶

Your wedding DJ says they need to know your #1 DO NOT PLAY song.

What song are you absolutely banning from your wedding reception?

And before anyone says it… yes, I’m expecting The Chicken Dance to make an appearance. 😂

👇 Drop the song. I want to see how controversial this gets.

Also, a few favorites from this sweet couple’s engagement session! Their 2026 wedding is coming up, and I’m already excited for their big day! 🤍

This sweet preschool guy brought ALL his favorite friends to his session—Paw Patrol stuffies, all the superheroes , and plenty of personality!

He was so much fun to photograph, and I’m pretty sure these little details are exactly what we’ll all want to remember someday. The favorite toys. The silly smiles. The big imagination. The little boy who couldn’t imagine going anywhere without his crew.

Here’s to a brand-new school year full of learning, adventures, friendships, and lots of growing! 📚✨

Happy first week of school everyone!

I have a front row seat to some of the most beautiful moments in Kentucky!

Do you remember your first dance song? If so, drop it in the comments. I’m trying to see which songs are the most popular for my couples!

Bonus points if it was something unique that I might not have heard yet.

✨A whole lot of life can happen in just a few chapters.✨

Swipe to see how we went from a tiny announcement to a beautiful family of three!
Documenting the Durr family through their maternity journey and finally getting to meet their sweet baby boy for these portraits has been such a joy. This is why I do what I do-capturing the legacy you're building, one chapter at a time.

I’m officially feeling my age today... but in the best way possible. 🥹✨

I first had this girl in front of my lens when she was just a little thing — wearing my high heels and twirling around the studio — and now? She’s a bride-to-be! Documenting her engagement session was such a full-circle moment. We traded the 'little girl' giggles for a lot of grown-up laughs, and honestly, she hasn't changed a bit—still the same fun spirit, just with a ring on her finger now!
