WHY?
(why choose us over anyone else?)
Because we’ll never say, “Pose like this, babe.”
We’ve actually witnessed that happen — a snobby photographer in Milan telling another artist how to contort themselves mid-shoot like a prop. It was awkward. Fake. And exactly what we are not.
At def0cused, we do things differently.
We create space.
A space where you feel safe to open up, where your awkwardness turns into confidence, and where you’re never asked to be anyone other than yourself.
We bring expertise
✨ Years of education in photography, filmmaking & creative direction
✨ Certified Reels creation expertise
✨ A background in platinum-level customer service
✨ A deep understanding of psychology & mental health
✨ A cozy, collaborative, and deeply personal process
✨ A mission to prove: you (and your brand) are already worthy of being seen
Let us help you feel it — and show it to the world.

This was already my second photoshoot with Def0cused, and once again, I’m absolutely thrilled! 🌟
She’s incredibly open, fun, and easygoing — from the very first minutes, it feels like you’ve known each other for years. She knows exactly how to guide you, make you feel comfortable, and help you shine in front of the camera. 📸✨
The whole experience is not just professional, it’s also filled with laughter, creativity, and positive energy. Every shot turns out amazing because she genuinely loves what she does — and it shows.
If you’re looking for not only beautiful photos but also an experience you’ll truly enjoy — I highly recommend her. She’s just crazy good!

Kate was warm and welcoming to work with. I didn’t know what to expect with documentary style and that’s the beauty of the form because it takes its own organic direction. Kate was great in facilitating the flow.

I want to say a huge thank you to Kate for capturing such special moments on my birthday. She put so much effort and love into her work, and it truly shows in every photo.
Kate was not only incredibly professional behind the camera, but she also blended in beautifully with my group of friends and family, making everyone feel relaxed and at ease. It felt like she was celebrating with us while still making sure not a single moment was missed!
Thank you, Kate, for being part of such a meaningful day and helping me relive those beautiful memories through your lens. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer :)
