Kathy Whittaker Photography

My name is Kathy Whittaker and I have had a love of photography since I was a child. I bought my first camera when I was 12 years old and started snapping at everything that would be still enough for me to shoot!!  Born and raised in New Hampshire I had plenty of beauty surrounding me for inspiration. I moved to Texas in 1991 and love the uniqueness of Austin and the surrounding areas. I love to be creative in what ever I do so my creative eye comes in handy with my photography.

My photography style is relaxed and  laid back.  Bring your favorite tunes along with you so that you can kick back and feel at home when you come to the sudio.  I shoot mostly natural light  because I love the light that nature provides over studio lighting.

Rhea Willis

Rhea has been in the industry for over 20 years. She began as a makeup artist then 11 years ago started taking photography classes and has been combining the two: doing the makeup, then shooting the session since 1999. The chance to get to know the person who will be photographing you, while your makeup is being done, is very helpful for putting the subject at ease for the entire shoot.
