Monterey Lumen & Lens Photography 

Where light meets story — capturing the quiet magic between people, places, and moments.

Each photograph holds a feeling: the warmth of connection, the texture of everyday beauty, the glow that turns the ordinary into something unforgettable.

Through a lens of intention and heart, Lumen & Lens creates imagery that feels honest, timeless, and deeply human.

All things Lumen and Lens

Lumen & Lens is rooted in a love for light, connection, and the quiet power of honest moments.

Every frame is shaped by a creative eye and a deep sense of care — capturing not just what’s seen, but what’s felt.

 

This work lives where art meets intention. Whether you're building a brand or making something personal, the goal is the same: to create images with soul, presence, and lasting impact.

Meet the Founder

Hello, I’m Kathleen Schreiber—founder of Lumen & Lens.

I’m a photographer with a deep love for capturing meaningful, human moments—whether it’s the heart of a family, the soul of a brand, or the energy of an event.

 

Raised between Monterey and San Jose, my life has always been steeped in creativity—music, theatre, dance, movement, and photography. I’ve long been drawn to the way light tells a story, both in front of the camera and behind it.

 

Alongside my work as a photographer, I’ve spent over a decade caring for children—a role I still hold close. That ongoing experience continues to shape how I see the world: with patience, empathy, and an eye for the little details that matter most.

 

Through my lens, I aim to do more than document. I want to reflect the beauty, connection, and purpose behind your story.

 

Let’s create something luminous together.
