Hello!!
I’m Katie - a Canterbury-based food and lifestyle photographer, producer, and I also write and develop recipes you can find on TikTok and Instagram at The Humble Pescatarian. I shoot content for brands, restaurants, and social media - from full campaigns to everyday posts that need a little sparkle. I am a big believer in storytelling, connecting with people and chasing those natural, in-the-moment scenes that feel honest and alive.
I also shoot lifestyle and outdoor spaces - restaurants, holiday lets, retreats, gardens, and all the corners that deserve to shine. I’m drawn to natural light and authentic moments, especially outdoors, because there’s something about the raw emotion and gentle flow of a space that really inspires me.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me out walking with my two gorgeous golden retrievers and my husband. And yes, I’m a total foodie - my heart (and stomach) will always belong to a giant bowl of humble mac and cheese.
If you’d like to chat about a project, feel free to email me directly at katiesmithfilm@gmail.com, or get in touch with my agent at hello@lisapritchard.com (Lisa Pritchard Agency).
A bit more about me…
PRODUCING
A passionate producer who has a drive to make films that tell emotive and compelling stories using strong visuals. Filmmaking is a collaborative process and for me, that is the only way good stories get told. My job is to bring together fantastic teams who all believe in a shared goal to create a brilliant piece of work.
I have over 7 years of freelance experience from hands-on producing and occasionally directing various multi-award winning narrative short films to producing music promos and branded content for many brands and clients (P&O, Robinson’s, MSD, Sanofi, Disney and Pandora) to name but a few.
Recent short films are A Different Place (a BFI funded short film) which recently screened at BFI Flare 2023 and Tin Luck, starring Samuel Adewunmi, supported by Pundersons Garden’s, One Stop Films and Kodak, directed by Beatrix Blaise and competed for Best UK Film at Academy Award & BAFTA Accredited Raindance Film Festival. Other recent films include Natives, directed by Siofra Campbell and starring Zoë Tapper, Andrew Brooke, Thomas Coombes, Clint Dyer and James Hillier.

Studio:
I work from my own little home studio in Kent. It is perfect for small recipe development, food photography, small scale editorial work & product photography (products can be posted). I can travel to locations as well or hire spaces as and when required if clients wish to join.
Location:
I love the outside and working outdoors being surrounded by nature. If you have a shoot that you want shaped by nature, requiring natural, earthy and where land and food imagery may meet, I would love to chat further. Furthermore, I also do inside location/studio work too.
