Hello! I'm Kate Bailey and I'm so glad you're here!

Taking photos has always been a creative outlet for me. I look at the world and see such beauty I feel convicted to share it.

Photos capture a moment in time. They show perspective and convey feeling.

About me


I had always dreamed of being a wildlife photographer and graduated with a wildlife degree in the hopes this would be a stepping stone to that.  However, as my view of the world widened, I quickly discovered that what I truly love documenting is people.  At the end of the day, it is who you spend your life with that really matters most.


I live in Milford, Maine with my husband, four young children, and menagerie of pets. We are outdoor-enthusiasts and want-to-be homesteaders. I have a Master's of Arts degree in Education, and I was a middle school science teacher for almost a decade. I absolutely LOVE working with children and youth. The way children look at the world with their sense of wonder has always fascinated and energized me.



My experience


I was taking photos for over ten years while I worked full-time as a middle school teacher. As you can imagine, this lends itself to limited availability at many points in the year to take photos. During this time I have still documented thousands of moments for numerous families all over the state. Since leaving teaching in 2021 I launched my business full time and have been so overjoyed with the opportunity to work with so many people.


I photograph a variety of life events, big or small, organized or casual: family, seniors, weddings, maternity, newborn, couples, and many more. My focus is lifestyle photography because of the inherent beauty in those moments but I have a studio option with a client closet, too.
