WHY IS THE BUSINESS NAMED OCTOBER PHOTOGRAPHY?
October is by far Katrina's favorite month. The weather turns cooler, the leaves change, and there is a special feeling of warmth and comfort in the air. Halloween is still Katrina's favorite holiday. In colder climates the trees turn to skeletons, one of Katrina's favorite photographic subjects. And over the years, Katrina has noticed a pattern: that amazing things happen in her life in October.
