embark on a beautiful adventure

What is the experience?

I truly LOVE this job. I cannot believe I get the honor and privilege of capturing your love stories. I hope through my work you can see my passion for creating. I would describe my style as a mix of documentary but always there to prompt and pose when needed. I love movement, big real laughs, hints of grain, and staying true to color for timeless photos that you will love for years to come!

Welcome friends, my name is Kara!

I am a full time wedding, elopement, maternity, + family photographer located in Pittsburgh PA. I love LOVE. If you're wanting genuine photos of real, messy, perfectly imperfect life then I am the photographer for you.

"Kara was absolutely the best!! My day would not have been the same without her. Her attention to detail, genuine love for what she does, and amazing talent was the bow on top of our perfect day. I am so thankful I can relive our wedding and feel the joy from the day so clearly through the pictures!!! I would highly recommend Stone Field Photography to anyone!!"

"Kara and her team are TRULY the best of the best! From the very first time I met Kara I knew she was the perfect person to capture our wedding day (the fact that I still look at all of our pictures multiple times a week confirms I was right!) She truly loves what she does, her heart, talent, and genuineness shows through her work and I am forever grateful to have had her and her team be a part of our day. She made us feel 100% comfortable in front of the camera, the realness and candidness of the photos are something I will cherish forever. From our engagement pictures, to the wedding, and now we can’t wait for her to work her magic with newborn pictures this summer! Best photographer ever!"

"The best decision I ever made was booking Kara to photograph me and my boyfriend!!! For one of our anniversaries we decided to get some professional photos done for fun, and when I saw her work, I instantly knew she would be perfect. Kara absolutely hit it out of the park- from her kind heart, to the way she guided us through the session, to the absolute AMAZING outcome…you will not regret it one bit if you book her. She made the process so easy, was very quick with her turnaround time, and made us feel so comfortable through it all. From two people who tend to look very awkward in photos, we are OBSESSED with how perfectly our pictures capture us. It’s my dream to have Kara shoot our wedding someday. BOOK HER !!!!!"

"From the moment I saw Kara at a friend’s wedding, I knew I would want her as my photographer one day. The way she flawlessly posed everyone while still capturing natural, candid moments immediately caught my eye. I mentioned this to my now-fiancé, who (without me knowing!) ended up hiring her for our engagement session—and let me tell you, she absolutely delivered.

She captured our day so effortlessly and authentically. Nothing felt overly staged, and she made us feel completely comfortable the entire time. She was so easygoing during the session, and if a location or pose didn’t feel right, she adjusted instantly.I’m already obsessed with our engagement photos and SO excited to have her photograph our wedding in 2027!"

"Booking Kara to photograph our wedding was hands down the best decision I made when planning our wedding at the Allegheny County Courthouse. She has such a gift when it comes to capturing how a moment feels and I’ve never felt as comfortable in front of a camera as I did with her - and it shows in the results! She turned around our photos so quickly and it has been impossible to choose one favorite. We cannot thank Kara enough for what she was able to capture and if I could give her more than five stars I would!!"

"If you’re reading this review and on the fence about hiring Kara, consider yourself thrown over to the side of “BOOK RIGHT NOW!”. I cannot properly explain how incredible she was to work with. She came to our house for family photos and somehow captured every dream picture i had hoped we would get….and then somehow exceeding my expectations and captured photos that i will cherish for my entire life that i didn’t even know i wanted! I was overcome with happy tears just by seeing the preview photos she sent over. She is truly *the best* and is my go-to photographer for all future projects we may want. Go and book her NOW before her calendar fills up!!!!"

"We’ve been lucky enough to work with Kara for the past four years, and every single session has exceeded our expectations!  From capturing our annual family photos to taking the most beautiful newborn pictures for two of our sons, Kara’s talent and consistency are truly unmatched.What sets Kara apart is her ability to use natural, outdoor settings to create something genuinely unique. Each session feels relaxed and unposed, yet the final images are stunning and full of emotion. Kara has a gift for working with natural light and nature in a way that makes every photo feel warm, timeless, and authentic!Our newborn sessions were especially meaningful. Instead of traditional studio shots, Kara incorporated the outdoors in such a gentle and creative way, resulting in photos that feel personal.  She listened to my vision of how I would like them to turn out and she delivered! Beyond her artistic eye, Kara is incredibly patient, kind, and easy to work with…especially with kids, which makes a huge difference as a Mom of 3 little boys!  She consistently captures genuine smiles and real moments, not just posed pictures.If you’re looking for someone who can beautifully document your family’s story year after year, I can’t recommend Stone field photography enough!"
