Meet The Team
Kate Holt Photography was founded as a husband and wife team with over 20 years of photography experience.
We have shot for newspapers and magazines all over the world and now make Portland, Oregon our home.
We live in South East Portland and love the hustle of a busy Friday night on Division as we take in some wings at Pok Pok, or enjoy a caffeinated morning cup of coffee from our favorite cafe, Nossa Familia.
After growing our business in the Portland area, we expanded to Seattle, Bend, Phoenix, Nashville, Hawaii and beyond! Locally, we also welcomed a team of associate photographers who shoot in the same style and who have the same high-quality joyful client experience that we ourselves make as the foundation of our business.
These associate photographers are now a part of the Kate Holt Photography family and shoot a portion of our weddings every year!
Schedule a sit-down with us at your favorite coffee shop and let's get to know each other, get a feel for who you are, and what vision you have for your images.
We promise you'll walk away with not only aesthetic and genuine imagery, but perhaps even some new friends.
We look forward to meeting you and are excited at the opportunity to create a portfolio of images that are truly, YOU!

TRANG
Hi, I'm Trang. As a child, I loved to write stories. I'm inspired by people, interactions, art, as well as love in all forms. My favorite photos to capture are the ones that speak loudly without saying a word, and show movement and character while frozen in time. My photography style is both photojournalistic and editorial. I live to capture the candid moments, as a fly on the wall and strive to take the photos that encapsulate raw emotion and joy. When I'm not snapping away, or editing, you can find me at home, experimenting in my kitchen or herding my 3 cats. Occasionally, I can be coaxed outside with the promise of a scenic hike, good food, or a dry martini with a twist.

Here’s What Our Couples
Have To Say!
Simply The Best Photographers
There are just too many amazing things to say about Kate Holt Photography. We did an engagement photo session with them and, while we were nervous about the idea of taking photos, the actual experience was just plain fun. We laughed so much our sides hurt and the photos turned out so beautifully we used them for both our save the dates and our invitations. More importantly, we were really excited to take photos again at our wedding! It was a blast to take photos and even our most camera-shy friends and family said they felt at ease in front of the camera (and even had fun). To top it off, the photos were just incredible (we definitely shed many tears when we saw them).
— Hannah N.
The Best of the Best
As soon as we met, we knew that we didn’t need to interview anyone else, she was a perfect fit. During our engagement shoot, Kate made us feel so unbelievably comfortable in front of the camera. My husband and I are huge jokesters and were convinced that we couldn’t take serious pictures that looked decent. Kate made them more than decent- they were literally everything we could’ve ever wanted. When the morning finally came, she showed up early (thankfully!) and got straight to work. Again, she made all of us feel super comfortable and truly like I was hanging out with a friend. On top of that, our pictures turned out perfect.
— Lauren S.
Incredible Experience and Photos
It was an absolute delight working with Kate. We had to cancel our wedding plans for May of 2020 and Kate was extremely understanding and accommodating. When we finally decided on a date, we had some doubts as to whether we could use our original location as a setting for our pictures, but Kate went above and beyond to scout for alternative locations. Everyone compliments our wedding photos because they turned out so good. The fact that Kate is a dream to work with AND affordable is just *chefs kiss. * Having perfect wedding photos is something my husband and I will treasure forever.
— Lindsey M.
