The moment was perfect. The photo wasn't.
I know that feeling. That’s why I’m here.

Hi, I’m Kat, your NZ outdoor photography bestie. I help beginners take photos they’re actually proud of.
Hey, I'm really glad you're here.
You were there. The light did something you’ll remember for years. And the photos of it came out just fine, which is somehow worse.
I created Wander By Frame for outdoor souls like me who want their photos to finally feel like their adventure actually felt. Some adventures are a big trip, some are our own backyard, some are a beach twenty minutes down the road.
Maybe you have a camera you still don’t really get. Maybe you knew some of this once and it faded. Either way, you’re in the right place. You are not behind and you are not alone in this.
Hi, I'm Kat, your outdoor photography bestie.
I’m Czech, I live in New Zealand with Kuba and our toddler, and most of our free time goes outside. Beautiful, messy, sometimes a bit of a mission. A lot like outdoor photography itself.
Photos are memories to me. Proof the adventure happened. Mine used to come out flat every time, and the borrowed camera I started on mostly stayed in the bag. I still regret that one, I lost a lot of memories.
I’m not a teacher. I’m your photo bestie. I’m still learning too, so you’ll get my mistakes along with what I know, and yes, I still come home with photos I don’t like.
How your photo bestie can help you
Simple analogies from life
So you'll understand even the technical stuff.
The why behind a setting
Not only the numbers you need to copy.
Foundations first
Before we dive into the details.
Made for outside
Where the light keeps moving and nothing waits for you.
Honest, mistakes included.
I share my mistakes as well, they're the best teachers. I'll also show you the gap between what I saw and what the camera saw, because a lot of Instagram photography won't.
And if you feel confused right now, that’s not talent missing. Every photographer starts there, me included.

Nice words from others
“The biggest realisation is that I need just one hero in a photo, it explains why some of my photos just don’t work.”
Barbora, after reading the free Superhero Method
“For someone without a trained eye, but with enthusiasm, the clear and quick summary of what to focus on and why is extremely helpful.”
Ema, after reading the bonuses

You don’t need a better camera to start. You just needed someone to show you where to look.
