If I were to guess, you're probably having a hard time picking the right photographer. And trust me, I know there are a lot of talented photographers in Kansas City (we’re a close community and I’m friends with a lot of them). So why me and what makes me different? 

There are a lot of things that I could list but it always comes down to making a connection with my clients. Having your photo taken is really personal (and slightly awkward). I mean we all have insecurities, right?

My strengths are listening to what you want and putting people at ease. The ultimate goal and what I strive for is to make sure you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera leading to awesome photos you love. 

THE PERSON BEHIND THE LENS....WHO IS CATHY QUARLES?

Let me start out by saying that my family means the world to me and they are my biggest supporters. You can ask any small business owner and they’ll tell you the struggle is real to maintain that work/life balance. Sadly, I'm quickly realizing that as the years fly by, time with my children grows shorter and shorter so they'll always be my number one priority.

Planning events and hosting parties is my jam and I get cabin fever easily if I’m at home too long. I’m a tad obsessed with closing my watch rings everyday, new car smells, my dogs and cinnamon juju bears. I love traveling (specifically anywhere with warm, white beaches), going to concerts, biking, attending sporting events and trying new restaurants, wineries and breweries in the area. You’ll normally find me fluttering around making sure my friends are having a good time and then polling everyone on what our next shenanigan will be.

I’m detail oriented, loyal, a bit of a perfectionist, maybe a tad OCD and I’d be lying if I didn't admit I probably drop the F-bomb too much (my husband will more than likely come to me later and tell me to leave that last part off). Don't worry, I won't do that during a session, as I am a professional. But, if you’re easily offended by that, then we’re probably not a good fit and that’s okay.

SO, ARE WE A GOOD FIT?

Let’s face it, time is precious and I don’t like to waste it. I believe in being fully honest with you which is why I’m not the right photographer for everyone. I want you to hire the best person for your needs and why I only specialize in headshots, high school seniors and family portraiture.

So let’s work out if we’re going to be a good fit for each other.

YOU WANT A PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE WHERE…

You’ll actually receive a call back on your inquiry.

You can describe your vision, be heard and trust that I’ll capture the type of images you really want.

You'll always receive professional experience and guidance throughout the whole process.

You have my help and expertise to help you pick your images and are not left hanging to do it yourself.

I handle the hard work and create beautiful pieces of art and all you have to do is proudly display it.

 

 

YES! YOU'RE EXACTLY WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR!

I'M NOT THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER FOR YOU IF...

You only want digitals and every. single. image. from your family or senior session.

You only need a quick session and a few images
(unless you're looking for some headshots, click here).

You are getting married, had or are having a baby, selling a house or want sexy photos of yourself.

The Wessinger Family

"Cathy has taken our family photos multiple times. We are always so thrilled with her work! When you’re on site taking photos Cathy doesn’t settle for an okay location. She wants great lighting and background. Also, I swear she gets my kids to take the best photos and sweetest smiles!!! Shes flexible to work with for dates to take photos and to view photos. When she shows you the proofs she has an excellent eye to pick out the very best photos and more than likely you’ll get many gorgeous ones because she’s that good! You will not regret hiring Cathy!"
