About El & Em Photography by Kate
A Rochester Hills photographer for growing families.
Specializing in natural newborn, maternity, and family photography for families across Rochester Hills and Metro Detroit.
Meet Kate
Hi, I’m Kate — the photographer behind El & Em Photography, a Rochester Hills newborn photographer specializing in maternity, newborn, milestone, and family photography for families throughout Oakland County and Metro Detroit.
My passion for photography is rooted in preserving the moments that matter most — the quiet way a newborn curls into their parents, the excitement of siblings meeting their baby for the first time, and the tiny details that change so quickly during the first year of life.
These early chapters pass faster than we ever expect. My goal is to create natural, timeless portraits that allow families to revisit those memories for years to come.
Natural, Timeless Photography
My photography style focuses on clean compositions, soft light, and natural emotion. Sessions are designed to feel calm and effortless so families can simply be together. The goal is to create timeless photographs that remain meaningful for decades.
From the first days of a newborn’s life to the evolving personalities of growing children, every session centers on connection and authenticity.
A Rochester Hills Newborn Photographer Focused on Natural Connection
Newborn photography requires patience, experience, and a calm environment. Every session at El & Em Photography is thoughtfully guided so parents can relax while I safely and gently photograph their baby.
Sessions take place in my Rochester Hills studio, which is designed specifically for newborn and baby photography. The space is quiet, comfortable, and focused on creating a peaceful environment for both babies and parents.
Rather than rushed sessions, I allow time for feeding, soothing, and natural moments to unfold. This approach helps create images that feel genuine and timeless.
