I have known Kati for several years now, since we both work in the creative industry here in Nashville, TN. Kati has actually served MANY of my family clients (since I include hair and makeup for all my mamas at their sessions). She is ALWAYS going above and beyond in ensuring that my clients feel confident and camera-ready with her peaceful and chill personality (which I absolutely respect and admire)!
When Kati reached out to me to let me know she was ready to uplevel her own business with some branding photos, I was SO excited because I have truly grown to love Kati through the years, and the fact that she entrusted me with taking her branding photos meant THE WORLD to me!
One of the best features of Kati’s session was featuring her studio, which is attached to her home, so I got to take a real peek inside what it REALLY looks like for Kati on a day-to-day basis with her clients. Kati has this incredible space just off of her kitchen, which opens up into a well-lit studio space which she has transformed into her office and hair and makeup studio for brides and clients. It’s gorgeous and she has created a space that represents her personality very well.
I loved that her kids could just pop in and watch their mom work her hair and makeup magic, because to me, having your kids actually KNOW what you do and see you hard at work doing what you love is important. (Scroll down to see an image of Kati’s kids watching her in awe-it’s totally sweet)
I cannot wait to see what Kati does with her branding photos (I actually delivered enough photos for her to use for 6 months straight because we had a lot of content to cover since she has so much industry experience and serves clients who have been featured at the CMA’s!) 😲
If you are a bride-to-be in Middle Tennessee, I highly suggest you reach out to Kati! She is truly such a chill, joyful, and VERY peaceful person to be around. She has so much experience in the hair and makeup industry and her work is phenomenal! Check out her website here: https://www.katiedge.com/
Thank you again, Kati, for trusting me with your branding photos! I am so excited to continue to watch your business grow and to continue to cheer you on!

I take on one branding client per month, so spots are intentionally limited. Each session includes a two-hour personalized photography experience in Nashville, professional hair and makeup, and detailed pre-session planning so we capture exactly what your brand needs.
