WE'RE JOE+KATHRINA
photos made with heart and intention
none of that posed fake stuff
We know and appreciate that everyone is different. And that is how we approach our photography. Each one of you is unique and you know, that’s the way we like it. Our photos are not meant to be cookie cutter — no one couple, no one person is the same. We are here to embrace you and capture your essence. Everyone has a story and that’s what we want to tell. Your story.
this is our jam
intimate weddings
adventurous couples
+ portraits
the ones behind the camera
nice to meet you
We are creators, photographers, laugh out louders, hug-you-at-first-meet kind of people and we never say no to chips and salsa. Yes we are husband and wife and photographing people makes us happy, simple as that. We’re very hands on as far as what kind of photos we want to create. There is an ebb and flow to how we shoot, from directing you and cheering you on from behind our cameras to being flies on the wall letting moments happen organically. We believe in connection and collaborating together.
Let’s chase sunsets, roll around the grass, stomp our feet in mud, go on an adventure together, and create something amazing.

What People Are Saying
“The BEST photographers, ever. Not only is their work amazing, but they made the whole process that much more enjoyable. They had my husband and I laughing the whole time and that much more comfortable in front of the camera. They managed to take our awkward selves and make beautiful photos out of it. Joe and Kathrina are legit, like you’re going to want to hangout with them after. And the photos turned out magical.”

We are Joe+Kathrina.
We met in high school, started this business together and always shoot together. You can often find us taking road trips in our 1989 FJ Land Cruiser and overhear us talking about our dog. We are located in Southern California, more specifically Orange County, but shoot anywhere – from Los Angeles, to Joshua Tree, to Italy, to your backyard. Hello! Let’s be friends.
