Heartfelt Stories

 
 
Knowing Kathy for years and photographing beside her, one thing is striking: her photographic vision comes from her heart and a desire not only to make good photographs, but photographs that do good, that amplify beautiful experiences, and create a hunger in us that will move us to love and protect each other and the wild places from which we originally come.
— David duChemin, World & Humanitarian Photographer
