Hi, I’m Kat.

Sights & the Cities started with a camera, a love of travel, and a habit of noticing the little things that make a place feel like that place.

A street in Rome. A cathedral in St. Paul. A perfect Minnesota summer night. The sports teams we swear are going to pull it off this year.

What started as a home for my travel photography has grown into something a little bigger: a collection of the places, moments, inside jokes, and hometown things I love enough to turn into something you can keep, hang, wear, or give to someone else.

I’m based in Minnesota, constantly planning the next trip, usually carrying a camera, and very rarely neutral about a good skyline, an old building, or Minnesota sports.

Everything here is inspired by places I’ve actually been, things I genuinely love, and ideas I’d want for myself.

Welcome to Sights & the Cities — part travel diary, part hometown love letter, part creative playground.
