Cape Cod Photography - Kate Murphy Lowenstein Photography
 

Welcome to my blog! I am a family portrait and wedding photographer based on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. My style is casual and classy; modern and classic; creative and fun! My passion is capturing natural and genuine expressions of the people I photograph using natural light and creating "real life images".

My enthusiasm for photography began nine years ago when I borrowed my friend's SLR (film) camera for my honeymoon. It was then I discovered I had a talent for photography. I took classes and seminars, read books and immersed myself in photography and dreamed that someday I would be a photographer.

Forward nine years and I am a wife, mother of three, and a photographer. I wear flip flops or Uggs and jeans almost every day. I love to dress up on special occasions. I love the beach. I love meeting new people and spending time getting to know them. I love to capture who a person is, their genuine smiles, their interaction with the people they love. I think a person's eyes tell a lot about who they are, and I love getting so close to their eyes that I cut off their head in the photograph.

Rather than rambling on about myself, below is a glimpse into both my personal and professional life featuring images from my photo shoots as well as my family and friends. All in all, I hope my blog gives you a sense of who I am and what I'm all about...

Check back frequently for what's happening and studio specials.

Thanks for visiting!

On the stands now!

Check out some of my 2008 wedding images in WellWed magazine on stands now!

Here it is!



Here's a spread in the magazine containing a few of my images. Can you guess which ones are mine?



OK, I won't make you guess...Here are some close-ups of the shots the magazine selected to publish...
This was Casey & Brian's wedding 2007. A moment between Casey and her ring bearer (who also happens to be my cutie-patootie nephew).



This is Ellie's dress reflected in the mirror in her dressing room at the Wianno Club.


Another from Ellie and Brian's October 2008 wedding. A family friend had whisked them away in his antique Ford immediately after the ceremony. We headed down to Dowses Beach and I captured another cool reflection shot in the wheel of the car.



Another page of the magazine highlights beautiful floral design by Courtney's Floral Creations (click here for her website). She is an amazing talent and is highly recommended for elegant and breathtaking flowers at your wedding! The images were captured by yours truly. I was a little bummed to see that the magazine chopped off Lainey's head, so here is the original images along with the spread.



Here's Ellie and Brian's delicious beach-themed wedding cake by Casual Gourmet (click here for their site). Yum!



Please take a look on stands now for WellWed magazine!

I am also looking forward to my first photo sessions of the year this week!
