Wedding & family photography
I guide you just enough to ensure a beautiful composition, but I let the genuine emotions and interactions take the lead.

My approach is unobtrusive, allowing you and your guests to be fully present in the moment, while I document the emotional essence of your day. Resulting in images that are authentic, timeless, and uniquely yours.
Hi!
My name can be tricky to pronounce, unless you’re Czech born like me. So please, just call me Katya!
I’m not only a wedding photographer, but a storyteller capturing people, places, and moments in all their authenticity.
Fun facts about me: I’m still working on learning French, and I really want to sail to Martinique one day - despite being quite seasick! My English comes with a bit of a Scottish twist, which makes conversations interesting. I have a terrible music taste, so keep me away from DJs unless you’re ready to hear some quirky remixes of Down Under, Barbra Streisand, or Rasputin.
Right now, I’m based near Morzine, France.
I take bookings for weddings in Czech, France and Germany for upcoming season.
Client testimonials
Johana K, bride
Katya is simply amazing! Of course, you choose a photographer because you like their work, so you expect it to be good. But Katya is so much more than that. She wisely took us out for a pre-wedding shoot a little “date” in the woods for the three of us. It was fun, time flew by, and even for a nervous couple like us, who had never been photographed before, the photos turned out great. The wedding day shoot was even better. Katya was cheerful, helpful, everywhere she needed to be, yet almost invisible at the same time. She didn’t pose anyone unnaturally, spent what felt like a billion hours with us, and still apologized for leaving “too early.” The photos are fantastics as expected. Katya is fantastic. Please, take Katya with you to your weddings, dates, and adventures. She’s the best. Honestly.

A photo session with Katya was different. She genuinely tries to get to know you so she can capture your true essence in her photos. This had never happened to me before and it dissolved all the discomfort I usually feel during a shoot. Katya makes you feel that she cares about you, that she loves her work and that she wants your photos to be real. There is an even better word for it, one we do not hear much these days: pure. I am truly happy with the photos and wholeheartedly recommend Katya.
Pavla F, long term client
Every person has a gift, and Katya’s is photography. She captures the fleeting moments like no one else. In her photos, I like how I look, and most importantly, it’s truly me. She was there for our date, captured my pregnancy belly, came to us just days after the birth, and didn’t miss the christening either. I’m really looking forward to more beautiful moments with her. Not just for the beauty of the photos, but for the beauty of her heart. Thank you for everything, Katya, and come by for coffee soon. We love you.
Ivana K, bride
Having Katya by our side throughout our wedding day was magical. Every bride needs the kind of energy and positivity that this amazing woman brings. Even though we didn’t know her beforehand, we instantly liked her. She’s quick, funny, conscientious, and managed to capture so many emotions which is exactly what your big day is all about. Thank you so much for everything.
Samo P, groom
What’s great about Katya (apart from her photos, of course) is that she creates such a relaxed atmosphere that you never feel awkward being photographed. The result is beautiful, natural photos and not stiff, posed shots with forced smiles.
Are you ready to say "YES" to me?
