Katie was an incredible photographer! She was so kind and professional for the entirety of my wedding. She knew how to pose everybody, even the least photo-ready members of our party in fun ways that really captured the feelings of the day. The end result photos were simply gorgeous and we get nothing but compliments over them!

Katie Lynn was so flexible with me and my family and was willing to go out of her way to do an in home family session with us! She made all of us, including my two little ones feel comfortable and was so patient with my fussy baby. The photos we have are all over our living room and are spoke of my most treasured photos! Beautiful style and amazing quality, not to mention how great it is to work with her! Would highly recommend Katie Lynn for any photography needs!

About this vendor
Katie Taylor
OWNER
I’m Katie Taylor, the world-traveling wedding photographer behind Katie Lynn Photos, based in Lynchburg, VA, capturing love stories near and far.
With over 150 couples trusting me to document their day, I’ve had the honor of photographing weddings from the Pacific Northwest to the East Coast. I believe weddings should feel unhurried and honest, and my goal is to capture them just as they are: full of warmth, emotion, and the little moments that matter most.
I specialize in garden party weddings—where florals spill over tables, laughter fills the air, and golden light dances through the trees. With a mix of film and digital photography, I document your day with a gentle, observant approach, allowing moments to unfold naturally so your photos feel effortless and true to you.
From our first conversation to your final gallery, I’m here to capture your story with care and intention, preserving the beauty of your day exactly as it was.
I’m Katie Taylor, a wedding photographer who’s all about capturing real, authentic moments. I specialize in both film and digital photography to create timeless, emotional images that tell the unique story of each couple. My work is deeply rooted in my faith, and I love working with couples who share those same Christian values. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me hiking, climbing, or cooking with my husband, Brian. My style centers on letting couples’ love and connection shine naturally, and my goal is always to make clients feel at ease so their photos truly reflect their relationship in the most beautiful, genuine way.

Katie is absolutely incredible! As a wedding photographer myself, choosing Katie for our special moments speaks volumes about her talent and passion. She is not only immensely skil...
led but also authentic, kind, and encouraging. My fiancé and I had the pleasure of doing our engagement photos with Katie, and she will be capturing our wedding day as well.
During the engagement shoot, Katie made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, transforming the experience into something magical—like we were the main characters in a movie. Her clear communication, understanding nature, and helpfulness throughout the entire process have been invaluable. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to document our love story.
KATIE IS THE BEST!!!
