If you’re planning a wedding on Nantucket and want photos that feel effortless, natural, and timeless, you’re in the right place. I photograph weddings in a documentary style with soft direction when needed, so you can stay present while I capture the real moments. From welcome parties to farewell brunches, I document the full story of your weekend with a calm, thoughtful approach and a love for film.

Hi, I’m Kaity


I’m a Nantucket wedding photographer and storyteller who believes your photos should feel like memories, not poses.

I grew up shooting film with my father’s film camera and spent over a decade working in editorial and branding photography before turning my focus to weddings. That background shaped the way I see light, details, and the quiet in-between moments that most people miss.

I’ve called Nantucket home since 2004. I know the back roads, the beaches at golden hour, and how the island moves through the seasons. That local knowledge helps me guide you with ease while keeping the day relaxed.

Local knowledge makes a difference


From portraits at Brant Point to sunset sessions in Madaket, I help you make the most of the island’s light and locations.

I’ve photographed weddings and events at venues like Sankaty Golf Club, The Nantucket Hotel, Faraway Nantucket, and private homes in Monomoy, and I’m always excited to work at beautiful spaces like The Wauwinet, Nantucket Yacht Club, and Great Harbor Yacht Club.

Because I live here year-round, I can help with timing, weather patterns, and trusted local vendors so your day flows smoothly.

Kind Words

Kaity was genuinely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

We met her in the summer for our engagement shoot and instantly felt comfortable. She’s so friendly and easy to get along with. We’re not naturals in front of the camera but she made it feel effortless, and the photos were incredible.

By the time October came around, we felt completely relaxed knowing she was there. On the day she was professional, organised and so easy to be around. So many people commented on how nice she was. Nothing felt forced and she captured everything so naturally.

Her communication the whole way through was amazing, always quick to reply and happy to help with anything. And the final photos and films honestly blew us away. She captured the energy and emotion of the day so perfectly.

We feel so lucky to have had her and couldn’t recommend her enough.
