Senior pictures/family pictures

Caitlin did an amazing job on our family picture and my sons senior pictures. He literally looks like a super model.

Absolutely Amazing

Caitlin was an absolute dream to work with, along with her assistant, Emma. The best way to describe Caitlin is she is the perfect balance of everything you need in a photographer. She is extremely organized, efficient, and professional yet she is hilarious and down-to-earth. Caitlin guided us through the entire day with a calm, warm demeanor which really allowed me and my husband to relax and have fun in every moment. It was important to me to find a photographer that would encompass all of that, and I couldn’t imagine anyone doing a better job. She and Emma work effortlessly together and captured every moment we hoped for. Most importantly, we could not be more pleased with our photos! I’m biased, but THEY’RE STUNNING!! Would love to work with both again in the future.

Best investment I've ever made!

There are no words to describe how wonderful our experience was with Caitlin Thomas Photography. Both Caitlin and Emma, her assistant, are incredible to work with. We loved every minute! Like many people, I feel awkward in front of the camera (I don’t know what to do with my hands!). From the minute we began our engagement session, we felt completely relaxed and at ease – we never felt like we were getting our pictures taken, but more that we were hanging out with friends who happened to have cameras. I was SO relieved to see the both of them on our wedding day while I was getting ready – they immediately calmed my nerves. The entire day, they were always available, but never intrusive at all. We had so much fun with them because they are both so kind, easygoing, and just wonderful to be around! As an added bonus, they were so great with timing that we arrived early to our reception, allowing us some extra party bus time before heading in!

Caitlin is so very talented, and gave us an incredible, gorgeous mix of unique and emotion-filled images – we will cherish them forever! We are so grateful that we could have Caitlin and Emma as our photographers. Do NOT hesitate to book them – I did as soon as I could, and am so glad I could. LOVE THEM!

If you are like me and pictures are a very important part of your wedding day because that is what you will use to commemorate your day for ever and ever, choose Caitlin. I cannot recommend her enough. I found her through a friend who used her for her wedding. The pictures she took for my friends wedding looked like they were literally out of a wedding magazine!! With us - first, she started with our engagement pics (included in our wedding package), which were amazing. We were hoping to wing things and she was able to find beautiful spots to take so so many amazing photos in. She got them all edited and back to us within a month (and this, mind you, is during peak wedding season).
THEN comes the wedding planning. I was a very detailed planner, and Caitlin and I were a match made in vendor heaven. She was in contact with us throughout our 2.5 year engagement, helping us get a grip on what we will need for wedding time, and then about a month before, she sends over a whole website (!!!) for us to fill out to keep track of things we want, timelines, contacts, picture lists, etc. Not having to type that all up in an email and answer it questionnaire style was literally the best ever.
I even received an email from her at one point telling me that if I need to talk about wedding planning to get talked back from the ledge, she could talk me down. How great is that - not only concerned with her piece in the wedding, but making sure that things are going great for me.
On the wedding day, Caitlin and her assistant photographer Megan were like ninjas. Everything we wanted in pictures was captured beautifully.
Our wedding photos were sent to us while we were on our honeymoon - not even 2 weeks after the event - GORGEOUS. Totally edited and ready to use. She uses an online album sharing tool to view (and you can download/order as well from there). But is also sending along a USB full of all the pictures for us to keep.
Caitlin you ROCK!! I would recommend you to ANYONE!

Caitlin and her team are seriously THE BEST EVER! I could not have asked for a more amazing team of photographers for our wedding day. They made us feel at ease in front of the camera and captured some incredible moments throughout the day. I loved working with Caitlin every step of the way and we got so many amazing photos of our special day. I cannot thank the photo angels at Caitlin Thomas Photography enough! Love you all!

We could not be happier with Caitlin Thomas Photography. Caitlin was amazing to work with from the beginning of our engagement and even after the wedding. On your wedding day you want to capture every single moment while still feeling comfortable and natural- these girls nailed it! Caitlin, Jennie & Emma were absolutely amazing and didn’t miss one second! Their professionalism was evident and their great personalities made it so much fun! Highly highly recommended!

I can't recommend Caitlin and her team enough. The photos from our wedding turned out better than I could have imagined and Caitlin and Emma were so fun to spend the day with. I was worried about cramming all of our photos with family, the wedding party and just ourselves into the hour between the ceremony and reception, but Caitlin was incredibly organized and got all of the shots we needed in no time. When I was notified shortly before the ceremony that my husband was stung in the face by a bee, Caitlin was the first one to calm me down and come up with a game plan in case his face was swollen (luckily that didn't happen until the next day). Caitlin was also great to work with during the planning process and was always very quick to respond if any questions or concerns came up. We wound up with hundreds of beautiful photos that were well worth the investment.

If you're looking at this you know there are a thousand photographers in the area; stop looking immediately and hire Caitlin Thomas Photography! I was overwhelmed with choices, but we knew right after meeting with Caitlin that she was it. Her work (and her associate's work) speaks for itself. They know exactly what they are doing and will make sure you get beautiful and polished but natural looking photos. We got so many compliments about our photos and how amazing they looked.
In addition to talent, Caitlin and the other girls are just super nice, helpful, and comfortable to be around. You won't feel awkward having your pictures taken. It's like being around a friend who just happens to have a camera. Caitlin also helped me answer some non-photo related wedding questions so everything could run as smoothly as possible.
I whole-heartedly recommend this photographer. Photos are one of the most important aspects of the wedding, and you will be so happy with this choice!

I am so happy that I decided to use Caitlin Thomas Photography for my wedding. From our first conversation, I knew Caitlin and Jennie were fantastic. My husband and I planned our wedding from out of town in 4 months, so we certainly were not the easiest clients to work with, but Caitlin and Jennie were amazing. They were so flexible and even met with us over Google video chat, since I could not make it to Pittsburgh. We had the pleasure of having associate photographer Jennifer shoot our engagement and wedding photos. She was absolutely fantastic! It truly felt as though one of our long time friends was photographing our wedding. She arrived on time, was very professional (even though I was running behind schedule), and flexible when I added on additional family photos the day of the wedding. She dealt with my overbearing family and kept everything moving smoothly. She kept me calm and even when a guest accidentally spilled red wine on my train during cocktail hour. Jennie captured the most beautiful moments of my husband and I's special day, and we are so grateful for that. Our wedding photos were finished in about 1 week! The photos are more beautiful than I could imagine and the editing was flawless (there is no sign of any red wine on my wedding dress!). My family and I are so impressed by the quality and quantity of the wedding photos. I am so happy that I chose Caitlin and Jennie for my wedding photography. I am excited to have another big life event just so they can photograph it! I have already recommended them to my friends getting married next year.

After our first meeting with Caitlin, we knew she was perfect for our day! We had a blast with her during our engagement shoot and she had great recommendations on locations around the city! Caitlin and Jennie were our shooters for the wedding, and they were so much fun! It is like you are hanging out with friends, not vendors. They were very professional and took absolutely AMAZING photos. When our wedding was running late, they even stayed longer to make sure they got all the shots. I usually don't like photos of myself, but truly love EVERY SINGLE PHOTO that she took on our day! I would recommend her to anyone! She captured our day perfectly!
