about
KAITLYN
Seeker of everyday magic.
Leap year baby. Bulldog lover.
I’m a wedding photographer, sun chaser and an artist based on Long Island’s scenic, sandy East End! I grew up out east and am forever inspired by all the farms, the wildflower fields and being able to go to the beach almost any turn you make!
Everyday is a new adventure doing life beside the best guy I know, Kevin, and our sweet bulldog, Forge, in our home we named The Little Pine- nestled beneath a ton of pine trees!
In 2011 I shot my first wedding, with not a clue what this industry was all about, or even weddings in general for that matter. That first couple who took a chance on me and my art completely changed my life. So my love story with how I got started in wedding photography? It really just found me. I believe there’s something magical about capturing those once-in-a-lifetime moments: the first look, first kiss, first dance. I love allowing my couple's to re-live these moments over and over again!
MORE things I'm up to: A little passion project inspired by our home called 59 & Pine - right now it's an etsy account with custom made greeting cards, but I can't wait to see where it takes me next.
And the reason behind everything that I do, here's a little back story, dedicated to my dad, my WHY, Sonny Ferris .
01.
I BELIEVE
That a wedding day should never feel like a photoshoot, because it's not- it's a celebration! That, you should look and FEEL like yourselves in your wedding photos (a big reason why I suggest engagement sessions- to get you comfortable before the big day!). That every detail you plan for your wedding day should be appreciated and remembered. That people and memories can live on forever in a photograph. That the prettiest place in the world is the North Fork at 7 PM on a Saturday in June (what we photographers call GOLDEN hour!)
