Edmonton's Trusted Maternity & Newborn Photographer

documenting families for 14 years

Your story deserves a

visual masterpiece

As an Edmonton maternity and newborn photographer with fourteen years of experience behind the lens, I offer a fully guided, luxury portrait experience for growing families across Edmonton and the surrounding areas.

 

In my private studio, you'll find a couture client closet of gowns and heirloom fabrics, hand-selected luxury props sourced from artisans around the world, and elegant, thoughtfully styled setups designed around your family's story.

 

Every pose is guided with care, every image finished with expert retouching, and every piece of artwork — from fine art prints to albums — crafted using premium Italian-sourced materials.

 

Your experience is unhurried, calm, and entirely your own.

 

From the moment we meet, every detail is considered — so what you walk away with isn't just a photograph,

but a piece of art built to last generations.

I can't wait to connect! - Xo Kat

OUR BELIEF

We create portraits that honour the smallest moments—images that become heirlooms, hold onto the fleeting newness of babyhood, and tell your family's story for generations to come.

Some moments only happen once. We believe they deserve to be done right.

Hi, Friend - I'm Kat

I'm a photographer specializing in posed newborn and maternity portraits, with over fourteen years dedicated to perfecting the art of soothing, posing, lighting, and editing — so every session feels calm, and every image feels timeless. Safety and skill guide everything I do with your newborn.

 

But beyond the craft, I understand this season on a deeply personal level. I'm a mother of four — including identical twins, born from a high-risk pregnancy that meant weekly specialist appointments. I've had both natural deliveries and a C-section. I've experienced the wild unpredictability of newborns and toddlers, the exhaustion, and the overwhelm that can come with it all.

 

That firsthand experience, paired with fourteen years of professional expertise, is what shapes every session I offer — designed to be the most relaxing, cared-for experience you and your family will have.

the process to work together in 3 steps

1.

Let's Connect

We believe meaningful connection leads to beautiful imagery. Every portrait session begins with a complimentary consultation—either in studio or video call—where we learn about your vision, answer your questions, and design a calm, seamless experience tailored to your family. If it feels like the perfect fit, you may book your session at that time.

2.

Make It Official

Once aligned, your session is secured with a session fee. After your portrait viewing, you’ll purchase only the images you love most.

To schedule a maternity session, this is best done at the 30 week mark. Newborns should be scheduled while still pregnant, to ensure the session within 14 days of delivery.

Before your session, you’ll receive a thoughtfully designed guide to help you feel prepared and at ease. When the day arrives, simply relax and enjoy the experience.

We’ll take care of the rest—guiding you effortlessly while creating heartfelt, timeless artwork.

She’s always goes above and beyond. I very highly recommend her services. Thank you for everything you do.

We had an amazing experience with Kat for our lifestyle newborn session. She came to our home and made the entire process feel comfortable and relaxed. We could see how experienced she is with babies. She was incredibly patient and knew exactly how to capture our vision. We look forward to sharing her beautiful work with our family and friends, as she perfectly captured this special time in our lives.

I went to Kat’s studio for my maternity shoot and was blown away by how many options she had — fabrics, props, backdrops, everything was so thoughtfully curated. She made me feel completely comfortable throughout the entire session and made the whole process feel easy and natural. I hadn’t even planned on doing maternity photos this pregnancy, but after seeing the photos she captured, I wanted every single one. Kat is unbelievably talented, and I can’t recommend her enough as a photographer.

Kat was wonderful to work with right from the very beginning for our maternity photos. She was always accessible to talk about inspiration or answer any questions we had. Having access to the client closet made getting ready a breeze as I didn’t have to worry about shopping for dresses that I’d only wear once. On the day of the shoot, Kat made us feel like rock stars and took her time to ensure we had several outfit changes and different poses captured. Her editing is natural yet magazine quality which is exactly what we were looking for. It was really hard to pick our final photos at the reveal appointment because they were all gorgeous. We can’t wait for our newborn session with Kat!

My husband and I had a great and positive experience with Rayne Drop Photography for our daughter’s new born pictures. Kat is extremely professional and was so gentle with our daughter. The studio is warm and inviting and our daughter found it very calming. We just had to show up and after that Kat took care of everything. Kat is truly a baby whisperer and detailed oriented. She also was very accommodating to a specific pose we wanted with a prop and made it happen! We love how our pictures turned out!! Thanks Kat!!

My family has had 2 Maternity/family sessions and 2 newborn/family sessions done by Kat and we are freaking out by how amazing the photos have turned out, they are seriously stunning! You can tell all the hard work Kat has put into these photos, just look at her website! We love how she captures our special moments, and how kind she is to our babies. Kat is very easy to work with and will help with the poses so we look great, I'm still obsessed with her client closet and all the baby props and outfits, they are so cute and just what we are looking for. We will always have our photos done by Kat and it is definitely worth it for everyone to book with her. We love everything about her photography business!

We had the most amazing experience with Kat for our newborn photo session! From the moment we arrived, she made us feel completely comfortable and took such great care with our baby throughout the shoot. Kat was incredibly patient, gentle, and clearly experienced with handling newborns. She created a calm, cozy environment, which made the whole session feel relaxed and enjoyable—not stressful at all (even with a fussy baby at times!). The photos turned out absolutely beautiful—better than we could have imagined. Every little detail, from the poses to the lighting and props, was perfect. She really captured the sweet, tiny moments that we’ll treasure forever. We’re so grateful to Kat for giving us memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a talented, kind, and professional newborn photographer, we can’t recommend her enough!
