I was already booking travel… so I thought, why not get paid for it? ✈️

I travel a lot for work and for fun, and now I get to earn commissions on the cars, hotels, and trips I’m already booking anyway. I honestly wish I had known about this sooner.

It’s been such a fun little extra income stream, especially during slower seasons with photography. And I love that I can do it alongside the work I already love.

Shoutout to @dina.chmut for introducing me to it 🤍

If you’ve ever thought about doing something like this too, or you’re just curious about how it works, DM me! I’m happy to tell you about it. 🫶 taken in Los Angeles, California by @katerdays

A little roundup of the last few months. 🤍

All I can say is: God is good, and He is faithful! He is so kind, so intentional, and so present in every detail. I’m incredibly grateful for the people He has placed in my life and for the things He and I are building together in this season.

There’s so much I’m looking forward to, and I can’t wait to see what these final few months of 2026 hold. I’m expectant for all that He has, all that He is doing, and all that He is leading me into.

Grateful to be alive, grateful for this season, and grateful to be here for such a time as this! 🤍 taken in Los Angeles, California by @katerdays

33- Jesus’ RESURRECTION YEAR! 🙌🏼 last year when I turned 33, I said, “this is my crucifixion year” and someone said, “I think this is your resurrection year.”

This year has been both. Some of those most beautiful times with the lord and some of the most costly deaths I’ve had to die with him. ALL OF IT IS WORTH IT! He is the king who sits on the throne and I praise him for who he is and who he has put in my life. These ladies are my tribe!! Plus a few others not pictured.

I am so grateful for the crushing of the olives that creates the pure oil. I just want to know him more and be more like him. Thanking Jesus for new mercies and new joys every single day. Thanking him that there is breath in my lungs and that the gospel is real and I live in it daily.

We are just getting started!!! 🙌🏼 thank you Lord for 34 and thank you to the people who loved and celebrated me last weekend. I love you big!! 🤍 taken in Los Angeles, California by @katerdays

I had the best (almost two) weeks with the best people for @artofluxury.co. What an incredible experience: traveling the world, meeting new people, seeing new places, and shooting in iconic locations. I felt like it was the World Race round two, and it made me miss traveling with community! We had great food, talked about Jesus, built beautiful friendships, and grew in our businesses. It was one of those trips that you’ll never forget and cannot be recreated I’m so grateful! 🤍 love each of you!!! taken in Italy by @katerdays
