Katelynn M. Rogers was born and raised in Northeast Ohio. Her photographs explore the crossroads of maternal loss, mental illness, and environmental decay. Inspired by the women and trees of her life, Rogers’ haunting images formulate mythologies around oral storytelling. Roger’s work interweaves somatic gesture alongside raw documentations of the Ohio landscape.

She received her BA in Fine Art Photography at Columbia College Chicago in 2022, and completed her MFA in Photography at the Rhode Island School of Design in 2025. During her time at RISD, Rogers was awarded the prestigious Henry Wolf Scholarship and the Graduate Commons Grant.
