For love stories rooted in joy & adventure.

Hey there, I'm Kathleen

I’m a photographer based in Northern Alabama (the Shoals). I specialize in weddings, elopements, couples, families, and much more! I started Deep South Photography because I want to capture true, genuine moments that will last a lifetime.

I service many areas in Alabama including Florence, Huntsville, Birmingham, and am available for travel anywhere beyond that! I’d love to connect with you and learn your story. Feel free to learn more about mine.

Testimonials

"

Kathleen exceeded all our expectations both for the engagement photos and the wedding!
She communicated efficiently and made the entire experience enjoyable through her professionalism and expertise. Not only did she capture every moment we requested but also took pictures we hadn’t thought of.

We are beyond thrilled with her work and so happy that we have a perfect record of the day!

We had such a great time with Deep South!! She is the sweetest with great skill. Our photos are absolutely stunning and the quality is amazing. We got them back super quick and she was great with communication! Couldn’t recommend more. She deserves more than 5 stars!

I can not speak highly enough of Deep South Photography and their owner/ operator Kathleen. We recently did a newborn session and Kathleen was so incredibly patient with our fussy infant, and truly took the time to capture him. Kathleen also took our maternity photos which turned out beautiful. She is very thoughtful, skilled, and talented. Photos capture some of our most special moments in life and are so important. You confidently can trust those moments with Kathleen’s capable hands.

Happy due date, Poe Arthur Kirby! 🇺🇸 Our i Happy due date, Poe Arthur Kirby! 🇺🇸 
Our independence baby decided he wanted to come a bit early at 36.5 weeks on 6/10. I woke up around midnight to use the restroom and my water ended up breaking. Poe was born at 3:32pm that same day and weighed 6 lb 9 oz. 3 weeks later and he now weighs a little over 2 lbs more! He had some breathing issues immediately after being born but we were able to avoid the NICU and was nursing like a champ an hour later. 
Tim and I were completely unprepared for Poe’s early arrival. We hadn’t even bought newborn diapers yet and had absolutely no clue where any of the hardware for the bassinet was 🙃But we somehow got it all together in the few days before bringing him home from the hospital. 
Shepherd is absolutely enthralled with his new little brother. He loves holding him and “gently” patting his head. We are totally exhausted but much less anxious this time around as we have an idea of what to expect. 
Oh and my final update - we’ve moved back to Jacksonville! We are laying low until Poe gets a bit bigger and we start getting a little more sleep, but then fully intend on seeing all of our loved ones ❣️
We’ve got a surprise to share ✨ Another July We’ve got a surprise to share ✨
Another July baby will be joining our crew next year. We are equal parts overjoyed and absolutely terrified to have 2 under 2. Let the chaos ensue!
