Kate Waterman Rose Photography Wedding Photographer

Location: Oakland, CA

Wedding photography for unconventional people. At the core of my practice as a wedding photographer, I believe: – that if your wedding traditions are not authentic and meaningful to you, then you deserve the freedom to build new traditions. – that men, women, and people of all genders are beautiful and deserve to have that beauty celebrated. – that we are most beautiful when we love fully and without reserve. – that no wedding or elopement is too small to commemorate. – that photographs are the record of memory and of personal history. – that you deserve to remember this.

I originally trained as a painter, but became captivated by photography in my second year of art school. After eloping in the desert, I was inspired to use my skills to help other couples create and commemorate the most exhilarating and authentic wedding experiences. With a bright and vibrant style, an easygoing manner, and an adventurous spirit, I help my clients to shape and experience the unconventional wedding day of their dreams – whether it’s on a seaside bluff, in the depths of a redwood forest, at the top of a mountain, or at San Francisco’s magnificent City Hall.
