My story

68 is the door number of my childhood home where I have such happy memories. So I thought as its such a special number to me, I should incorporate it into my business name. Photography is all about capturing moments in time that then become our cherished memories.... and this is where the name StudioSixty8 came from - it comes from a special place of memories and love which is exactly what I want to portray through my photography.

I am a creative person and have been involved in the creative industries for most of my life. I studied graphic design and animation and I have taught graphics, animation, video editing and photography. I love teaching, but photography is my passion and I have always enjoyed street and travel photography. When I was invited to quite a few hen weekends and weddings a few years back, I started to take photos discreetly in the background and gave the photos as a gift and I was seriously blown away by the positive feedback I received. So many people were telling me that I should do this for a living and in my heart I knew it was what I wanted to do, but I wanted to build my confidence first, so I took lots of courses and practiced like crazy with my camera and worked on some weddings and events for free to get some experience which really helped to build my confidence. I am happy that I listened to everyone and finally took the leap to make changes and move on to a new and exciting phase of my life.

My name is Katie by the way, and as you can probably tell, I am at my happiest when I am being creative. I am a real people person and I'm all about the little things - you know, the little things that brighten your day or make it that little bit extra special! I always want to go the extra mile to make things perfect for others because it makes me happy.

Some of my favourite things:
Spending time with family & friends  •  My 2 cats, Marley & Dizzie  •  Photography  • Travel  •  Polaroids  •  London  •  Italy  •  Marrakech  •  Good food  •  Nice people  • Books  •  Shoes  •  Sunshine  •  Autumn leaves  •  Chocolate martinis  •  red wine  

I feel privileged when I am the one chosen to visually document precious moments in peoples lives. I love storytelling and documenting these moments by capturing natural photos in my own creative way.
