After you spend all the time planning, perfecting the guest list, choosing the menu, designing the details and get down the aisle, you are left with one thing: memories.  Over the years we have enjoyed our share of memories with Total Events clients but there are some that are simply a cut above the rest.  When you look at photo and video of people you may not even know and shed a tear or feel every hair on your arms stand up, that's when you know whoever was behind the camera knew their stuff.  YTK never disappoints in the department, and that's exactly why we asked Katherine to help us with our Total Events At Home styled shoot.  

What inspires Katherine's photography style?
Light and the Love Stories

It’s clear that Katherine's work can range from whimsical Disney fairytale lighting to dark and moody depending on her client.  Her work is versatile and yet always consistently "YTK".  At the end of a photo album or video I always feel as if I know the people personally.  

What new services have you included during this season of small events?

While our studio has always offered photography and videography services, we have added live streaming services, a virtual guest book, and other virtual package options to keep our clients connected to the ones they love so much. We even organized a virtual first look with a bride and her grandmother so they could spend that time together. It was so magical.

YTK tip's on hosting an event at home:
These are technically the same tips that I would recommend for any event. Look at the space, and imagine the experience that you want to have and what you want to give your guests. Then build your event (no matter how larger or small) from those ideas. Keep it very personal and you. It's kinda like buying a dress that looks fantastic on a girl who had a completely different body type. You may love the idea of the dress, but this cut just doesn't fit you.

A favorite small event that you have worked on during this wild time:

Every single wedding/elopement that I have been a part of during COVID has been so special and unique. I have captured now 20+ events and it has been spectacular. Our couples have kept love, family, and hope in their hearts. No matter what obstacles we encountered, we worked together to come up with new solutions to keep their marriages magical. From changed venues to changed dates, to flying across the country to live stream for a family who could not be there. There isn't anything that I wouldn't do for our couples to create amazing forever moments.
