About katenadine / Kate McElwee

I like cheese and music and photos and beer. And spending hours getting lost in the magical world of Flickr.

And now I like my new website more than anything else (just 'cause I'm fickle and I like new things). Swing by if you have a spare moment!

Blog here.

I value your constructive criticism as much as your praise. I love the community on Flickr, and if you leave me a comment you'll be sure to find me checking out your stream.

Here's a very small selection of my snaps:

And this is me:

You can explore my most 'interesting' photos ... Whatever that means!

I listen to this (the station, not the CD) all the time. My iPod is now defunct. Rock on, Seattle!

I'm Female and Taken.

Testimonials

Jenny J says:
"kate is like a rad lady and stuff."

Kell Bailey says:
"Kate is not only an amazing photographer (her photographs speak for themselves), she is joy to work with. Her attention to detail and ability to capture those “once in a life time” moments is uncanny and inspiring to watch.
She takes the time to get to know the couples she photographs and the strong rapport she builds with them allows her to be attentive to their vision of their special day and allows her to capture the moments that matter. If you are looking for a wedding photographer look no further than Kate Mcelwee."

squodge says:
"Kate's one of those people who has boundless energy and it shows in her photography. I admire her skills very much - as someone else has pointed out, she relies on getting it right "in camera" rather than relying on Photoshop to "get it right" after the event. Her photostream is full of real gems!

drew™ says:
"Kate is my photography idol. I've watched her get so much better after just a short time. I love her perspectives and the fact she doesn't have to photoshop every shot like a lot of people do lately. Capturing reality as it happenes is something Kate is good at. I look forward to seeing her published someday :)"

lazaro says:
"Kate is one of a small handful of photographers on flickr who's work I truly enjoy. She is able to capture wonderful pictures through her creativity and I always look forward to seeing her name pop up on my flickr page."

NoNoNoNoNo Joe says:
"I'm writing a Testimonial for Kate because she's a really good photographer and unexpectedly wrote me a testimonial, for which I am very honored.

I know she's in the macro-craze such as I and I look forward to seeing more of her wonderful creations in her Flickr pages!"
