MEET YOUR DESIGN TEAM
Founder
Since childhood, Katelyn has found inspiration in colors and how they interact in nature. This has translated into a deep-seeded love for floral design that focuses on color play, dimension and seasonality.
After completing a degree in Art and Design, Katelyn had the opportunity to work overseas and travel extensively. These experiences broadened her artistic perspective, which helped shape her foundation for a floral design studio in 2013. Katelyn loves the outdoors and exploring with her two daughters. In her spare time you might find her laboring over a delicious meal, eFoiling and spending time on the lake, or digging into the next house project.
The studio has combined experience in the floral industry of over 50 years. This allows their team to execute events of any scale and has given each the passion to keep a fresh approach to the floral medium. Florists have the great privilege and responsibility to support local and nationwide small farms. Whenever possible, seasonal elements are incorporated into the studio’s designs which add character and uniqueness to each project.
Katelyn and team work one-on-one with each of their clients to ensure that the florals truly reflect their style and the occasion. From daily florals to large-scale corporate events and weddings, the Katelyn Pinner Studio team designs and executes with precision and a high standard for quality.

CELIA JONES
Creative Director
Art and design were always interests of Celia’s from a young age. After completing a degree in Art History from Furman University, she knew pursuing a career in arts and design was her goal and flowers felt like a natural home. She joined the Katelyn Pinner Studio team soon after in 2018. Floral design is a natural extension of painting and three dimensional design, using the same core principles of color, line, depth, and texture, and it has provided the perfect place for her to explore her interests. She loves being able to spend her days creating things with her hands. In her free time you’ll find her gardening, reading, and spending time with her husband and two cats.
JILLIAN PRUITT
Partial Service Client Coordinator, Purchasing
Jill was originally introduced to floral design while studying Art & Design in college. This new medium expanded her interest in three dimensional design. After college she spent several years with a local florist developing design and management skills while working as the flower department manager. Jill was an original member of the Katelyn Pinner Studio team while also growing her experience in the Architectural and Interior Design industry. She took a few years off from floral design to focus on commercial and residential design projects but loved freelancing for large scale events and floral installations. She officially rejoined the team in the Spring of 2023. When she isn’t in the studio you can find Jill working on one of her ongoing home projects with her husband or hanging out with their three boys.
