i'm katie debary
As I get ready to step into my 30s, I can’t help but feel so lucky that photography has become my full-time gig. It’s the kind of dream I just want to hold onto and keep doing for as long as I possibly can!
born-and-raised Atlanta girl, still loving life in this peach-filled city
Hey there!
In 2024, I had the joy of walking down the aisle myself, marrying the goofiest, kindest, most handsome man I know. Together, we’re all about loving people well—whether they’re lifelong friends or strangers-turned-friends at a dinner party. Our home is a cozy landing place where everyone is welcome, and that warmth comes from the deep love we share for Jesus and the kindness that spills over from His love for us. That’s exactly how I want my photography service to feel to all my clients as well! Like we have just invited you into our friend group and get to celebrate YOU!
connect with me!
girl, i have been in your shoes!
I now see each beautiful, nervous bride differently, I hear each sentimental and sweet vow differently, I hold each grandmother’s hand differently when I see her stumbling to get to her seat. I see little glimpses of my wedding and my experience in each new wedding day I show up to and it just gives me this whole new perspective.
Choosing a photographer? It’s so personal and honestly, one of the hardest decisions! With so many styles and vibes out there, I totally get how overwhelming it can feel—I had decision fatigue for sure. But in the end, I just trusted my gut and went with the person I kept thinking, "Yes, I want her by my side all day—and I’m obsessed with the art she creates."
I tried to stay within budget, of course, but what really mattered was connecting with someone who felt right. So, I get it! That’s why I value your investment in me so tremendously!! I know what it feels like to choose someone and leave one of the biggest days of your life in someone’s hands to photograph!
I have a whole new perspective now that I have been the bride myself
weddings are kinda my thing
From bridesmaid to venue assistant, wedding coordinator, floral enthusiast, wedding dress consultant, and most recently, bride—I’ve worn just about every wedding hat imaginable.
For over 12 years, I’ve been living in the world of “I do’s.”
Weddings are more than a job for me—they’re in my bones. That’s why I’ll make sure your dress is fluffed to perfection, your florals are shown off beautifully, and your timeline allows for moments of ease and breathing room, creating space for joy throughout your big day!
Before the day arrives, let’s chat about the little moments you're most excited for so I can highlight the heck out of them! Obsessed with your invitations? I’ll be obsessed with them too—your gallery will reflect it. Love the architecture at your venue? You better believe you’ll have photos that match that vibe perfectly!
Where am I when I am not photographing YOU?
When I’m not busy capturing love stories, you can usually find me enjoying a slow morning at the local coffee shop, with an iced pistachio latte and my hubby. I also love wandering through HomeGoods or getting lost in the Anthropologie sale section (because who doesn’t love a good find?). My life is filled with the little joys—the kind that make everything feel cozy, warm, and full of heart. P.S I am also a BIG sweets lover so I will most definitely be excited for your dessert of choice for the wedding!!
