Captured by Kara

Captured by Kara I specialize in child, senior, maternity, family and special event photography. Since I was little, I have always enjoyed taking photographs.

I give credit to my grandmother for this love I have developed. She always had a camera and was snapping pictures of everyone at every event. In high school I was a photographer for our yearbook staff and I enjoyed every minute of being behind the camera and learning so much about the camera, lighting and developing the black and white film. I put my love aside for quite a few years while I got married and had children. It wasn't until 2008 that I decided to start to pursue my love for photography once again; joining a local company photographing newborns in the hospital. I did this as a 2nd job, working some nights and most weekend. I enjoyed it immensely. I was just getting started with this job, and picking up some outside clients when my health took a turn for the worst and I had to hang up my dream once again. I went through some major ups and downs with my health and on July 18, 2012, I had a double lung transplant. I still have to be careful, and I am not cured by any means, but I am able to fully do what I love, and that is to photograph! Sadly, I cannot go back to the job I was working; I cannot work in the hospital setting, or a school setting. But I can work on my own, at my own pace, capturing YOUR life's most precious moments. My specialty is newborns and babies, but I also enjoy photographing children, families, seniors, couples, maternity and other special events. I will do on-location shoots, and I have a studio as well. Book me and you won't be disappointed! If you would like further info on prices, or if you have questions, please don't hesitate to send me a message and I will get back to you quickly!

I have had some pretty amazing 2026 seniors. Sam was no exception. He plays football and is gearing up for bowling next. I had a lot of fun with Sam at the bowling alley...was secretly glad that the lanes had been stripped of the wax so that we could get some "better" shots on the lanes. ;)

Jim & Karen recently celebrated their 50th Anniversary. What better way to celebrate than to do a little photo shoot?! I had so much fun capturing this family! From the big family group shot, to the sibling shot of them fake laughing, but then laughing hysterically at their fake laughing. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Such a beautiful family! Congratulations again, Jim and Karen! โค๏ธ
