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...

Becky & Brian's Wedding: Falmouth Yacht Club

It was at times drizzly, and at times a pouring afternoon, but it didn't put a damper on Becky and Brian's wedding day! When I initially met Brian and Becky in my studio when they interviewed me for their wedding, I just felt that we really clicked. We enjoyed a glass of wine and some apps and talked about their wedding day, the people we knew, the fact they live a mile away and we've never crossed paths... I was really happy to be asked to photograph their wedding following our meeting.

I met up with the bride and her maids at her house while my assistant Kelly Hike (check out her website here) met up with Brian and the guys.

Becky would soon be Mrs. Fish...



The girls.



And beautiful bride. I love, love, loved her dress!






The handsome groom.



The groom and groomsmen along with Kelly took did a wee bit of yachting around the harbor before the big event.



Just before the ceremony, I got a chance to meet the guys.



Earlier in the day the decision had been made to hold the ceremony outside in spite of the inclement weather. Thankfully, it was just slightly drizzling for the oceanside ceremony. Becky is just beaming with excitement as she walks down the aisle! Love that!



And so happy to see Brian awaiting at the end of the aisle, gives him a smooch!



After the ceremony, some family photos and a little alone time with the bride and groom.



Beautiful!






I can't really pinpoint why I selected this one when there were so many good ones to choose from. I think I just love the genuine happiness I see in Rebecca's face and of course, I always love the candid shots more than the posed ones.



Genuine love and happiness in this shot of their first dance.



Thank you Becky & Brian for letting me share in the joy, tears and laughter and fun of your wedding day! You guys are the best!
