Founder & photographer
Kate Belova
Every guide on this site is written or reviewed by Kate: a working portrait photographer who founded Photo Austria and personally vets every photographer on the platform.
Kate Belova is a professional portrait and lifestyle photographer with over 10 years of experience, based in Lisbon, Portugal. Known for her "soul portrait" style, Kate has a rare ability to make people feel completely at ease in front of the camera — revealing authentic emotions and genuine personality in every frame.
After years of shooting family and lifestyle sessions across Vienna, Salzburg, and the Tyrolean Alps, Kate realized that tourists visiting Austria wanted beautiful photos but finding a trustworthy local photographer was surprisingly hard. She created Photo Austria to solve this — a curated marketplace where every photographer is personally vetted and every session delivers an exceptional experience.
