Welcome! My name is Kathryn Gardner and I am a full-time photographer proud to say I am one of few Accredited Professionals living in the West Kootenays, British Columbia. I live on a rural property with my husband and two black cats. We have an amazing view of tree-lined mountains framing the Kootenay River as it flows throught he winding valley. I am happiest when I am outside.
Like my neighbours, I have come here for the lifestyle and I believe that we should all take advantage of why we live here and incorporate opportunities into our business and personal lives. Lucky for me, photography is an amazing passion that works for both. It allows me to explore my environment, capture beautiful moments, and help entrepreneurs leverage the Kootenay lifestyle by creating professionally crafted photographs to showcase their businesses.
While I specialize in photography for small businesses, I love doing creative portrait work and getting experimental with lighting, clothing, hair, makeup and props. Creative photography allows my portrait clients to tell their stories, reveal an alter ego, or simply celebrate who they are.
I take on a select number of weddings each year - giving 200% to every client means it is important to maintain a good work-life balance.
So what about you? What brings you here today? Do you need new headshots for your business website? A portfolio of marketing images? How about a creative portrait sessions? I can't wait to hear from you to find out what you need (or want!) with photography. Lets chat and put a plan into motion.
