Hi, I’m Katelyn and it’s so nice to meet you!
I’m a: wife | mom | wine lover | thrifter.
After ten years of photographing in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, I moved to Appleton with a dream of the “big city”, leaving the comfort and repeat and new clients behind. Now I’m wife to handsome Jerod and momma to miracle Jack (aka Bubba).
“A friend connected us with Katelyn. She far exceeded our expectations. She was an absolute joy to work with. Very knowledgeable and efficient. She did very well with our boys. Our older son has autism and rarely smiles. She caught so many authentic smiles from him. I will forever treasure the photos she captured.”
Katelyn had a camera in her hand by the age of seven, and it never left. She is self-taught, mentored by Katelyn James Photography, Sue Bryce, and many more. Katelyn started her business in 2009. She lives in Appleton, WI offering beautiful portraits to residents and clients who travel to Northeast Wisconsin from all over the world.
With a niche in children and families, Katelyn effortlessly connects with children of all ages, creating a portrait experience that is enjoyable for parent and child alike.
Katelyn is among the leading family photographers in the Fox Valley, specializing in child and family portraits as well as personal branding for entrepreneurs. Her love of photographing children, paired with her signature style creates Katelyn's unique approach to portraiture.
