Creating your most authentic and genuine moments that you will cherish over a lifetime… Let me tell your story..

Welcome to Katie Harmis Photography!

I’m Katie, a documentary wedding photographer based in the vibrant DMV area, but available to travel worldwide. My passion lies in capturing the real, raw moments that make your wedding or elopement day truly unforgettable. I focus on documenting the intimacy, connection, and emotion of your day—without the pressure of posed shots or forced smiles. Instead, I immerse myself in the natural flow of your celebration, preserving the candid, fleeting moments that tell the most beautiful stories.

From quiet, tender moments between you and your partner, to the joyful laughter shared with loved ones, my goal is to create timeless images that feel as authentic as the love you share. Whether you're planning a grand celebration or an intimate getaway, I believe every wedding is special and deserving of a photographer who captures it with heart.

Based in the DMV area, I'm always excited to travel to wherever your love story takes you—whether that’s across the country or to the farthest corners of the globe. Your day deserves to be remembered just as it happened, and I would be honored to document your once-in-a-lifetime moments, wherever they may unfold.

Thank you for considering me to capture this beautiful chapter of your life. I can’t wait to tell your story!

  • "We used Katie Harmis Photography for our intimate Church wedding on 10/26 and had such a great experience working with her. She was so kind and patient and flexible with us throughout the process and on Wedding Day. As we approached Wedding Day, Katie met with us briefly to discuss timeline and all of the photos we wanted to be sure to get in. She offered her experience and guidance when we had any questions or needed suggestions. We got our pictures back and were very impressed. Would definitely recommend Katie for your photography needs!"

  • "Katie did such an amazing job as our wedding day photographer! Prior to wedding day, Katie helped us plan out our day-of schedule and developed a schedule tailored to our priorities for the day. On the actual day, Katie and our second shooter were beyond prompt and made sure that every detail was captured. Throughout the day, Katie was super flexible with timing, but also made sure the day was how we envisioned it. After getting our pictures back, we were blown away by the content Katie delivered. Our wedding photos are beyond beautiful and we cannot wait to cherish them forever!"

She fit right in at the wedding and made everyone so comfortable in front of the camera! We keep getting the compliment that our wedding photos are bridal magazine worthy! We really cannot say enough great things about our experience with Katie Harmis Photography and cannot recommend her enough! We will most certainly be using her for future photographer needs. Thank you again Katie :)"

She’s very good at what she does, and was so flexible with our crazy teachers’ schedule (not to mention, we could afford some beautiful photos!) when we were trying to find good dates for our engagement shoot. We were thrilled with how fairytale and fun our photos looked in the end, and will cherish our photos forever. Thank you, Katie!”"
