I'm the face (and the camera) behind Seen by Kaitie. My days are spent running social strategy for hotels and restaurants, but the moments I love most happen off the clock, camera in hand at a wedding, a grand opening, or a bridal shower, chasing whatever makes that day feel like that day.

I'll admit it: I'm hopelessly nostalgic. Some of my favorite hours ever spent are the ones piled onto a couch with my family, watching old home videos and reminiscing on different eras of our lives. I cherish those tapes more than almost anything, and I've never once regretted hitting record or sharing a moment — only the moments I didn't catch. That's really where Seen by Kaitie comes from: I want to keep the art of home video alive, just pointed at the moments that matter to you now, so twenty years from now, you've got something to pile onto a couch and watch back too.

That same love is what pulls me toward small businesses. I know what it takes to build a following from nothing, because I do it every day, and there's nothing I'd rather do than help an owner show up online in a way that feels true to them, reaches the right people, and turns followers into regulars, and regulars into a real community.

However you find me, behind the camera at your event or behind the scenes on your Instagram, the goal's the same: help people feel seen, so the connection outlasts the moment.

Let's create something worth remembering.
