Turning to photography, she shared a studio in Atlantic City with Amelia Van Buren (a former academy student) from 1894-96. In 1897 Watson-Schütze opened her own studio in Philadelphia and the following year showed her work in the first Philadelphia Photographic Salon. In 1900 she served as a juror for the salon and also took part in two major exhibitions in Europe: F. Holland Day's New School of American Photography, which was shown in London and Paris, and Frances Benjamin Johnston's show of American women photographers organized for the 1900 Paris Exposition. In 1901 Watson-Schütze was elected to membership in the Linked Ring and the following year became a founding member of the Photo-Secession. After her marriage to Professor Martin Schütze in 1901, she moved to Chicago and opened a professional portrait studio. In January 1905, four of her photographs were published in Camera Work. She continued to exhibit her photographs though the first decade of the 20th century, but eventually returned to painting.
