She describes her photographs as possessing a calm strength, with great imagination and values the collaborative process, taking pride in working alongside visionaries with similar excitement for their craft.

Based in Vancouver, BC, Canada she creates images from intimate artist portraits, to small business campaigns and CGI texture photography for top box office movies. Kitt has recently earned industry recognition winning the 2015 Applied Arts AACE Award for her The Alone Series and the 2015 International Photography Awards – honourable mention for both The Alone Series and her juxtPOSE Series. www.kittwoodland.com
