About

I'm so blessed to capture the beautiful romantic moments of a wedding day and tell my clients' stories. The way he makes you laugh. The way you feel when you hug your new husband for the first time. The look on your maid of honor's face during her toast. The love you feel when you're surrounded by your closest loved ones.

I want to give my very best to each of my clients, so my wedding packages always include 7-9 hours of photography coverage, 2 photographers, an engagement session, and high resolution images. I want to tell a complete story of your day, starting with details like your dress, shoes, and bouquet and getting ready time. My favorite part of the day is my hour of portrait time with the bride and groom. My husband and I work together as a two photographer team, so we can capture all the details and multiple angles of your fabulous wedding day. I do an engagement session with all of my clients, because it's a wonderful time for us to get to know each other and for you to get comfortable in front of the camera. And I believe that everyone should have a copy of their wedding images, so I include high resolution files in every package. 50 years from now, we may have lost touch and I want those memories to be safe and secure in your hands.

The absolute best!

I happened across their pictures browsing Pinterest one day, and I saw that their website said they had retired. I was so bummed, but figured I’d reach out just to be sure, and what do you know, Caitlin agreed to shoot our engagement and wedding photos! It was kind of crazy how it all worked out, and I’m so glad it did! We have hundreds of photos that we can look back on to remember the most special day of our lives! Caitlin and her husband, Ryan, are such sweet people who know what they are doing and put you at ease throughout the whole process. We cannot thank them enough for doing one more wedding with us! :)

Talented & genuine duo

We couldn't be more thrilled with choosing Caitlin and Ryan as our wedding photographers! Everything was excellent from our first inquiry to getting our gorgeous pictures back early. Caitlin is very professional, organized & super friendly. Her blog and vendor recommendations were extremely helpful for us planning a wedding out of state. I knew I could trust anyone they'd vouch for.
Caitlin's engagement photo session was a great way to get us comfortable with posing and get to know her. When she and Ryan arrived wedding it felt like more friends showed up and it was easy to feel natural in pictures.

The sweetest human

I can not say enough nice things about Caitlin and her husband Ryan! From day one, I was impressed with Caitlin's professionalism. She is extremely organized, hard working, and has so many thoughtful touches to her business. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. And to top it off, she is amazingly talented. We could not be more in love with our photos. And she had them back in just a couple of weeks which was a complete surprise! I have loved getting to know Caitlin, Ryan and their son. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Caitlin and Ryan were all that we could hope for in our wedding photographer. Before our wedding day, Caitlin was very helpful and promptly responded to any questions I had. Along the way, she provided helpful information and resources to help us prepare for our engagement session, and she asked well-timed questions in our planning process to develop our timeline of events. On the day of, Caitlin and Ryan were highly professional--calm, flexible, and easygoing. And our photos are stunning--from our bride and groom photos to the family photos to candids throughout the day, they all turned out great. I would definitely use Caitlin and Ryan again if we had to do it over again.

Caitlin was amazing and her photos are incredible. Her organization, attention to detail, and follow through are top notch. Caitlin called me after I requested a quote, asked me some background questions, explained the process and then later that day I had a quote. Before the wedding, she asks for a list of photos that you would like, this made everything so fast and efficient after the ceremony. Everyone knew what was going on and it was incredibly easy. After our wedding, she sent us a blog post of her favorites and then a couple days later we had all our photos. We were blown away about how well she captured the essence of our wedding. Top notch in all areas and I would definitely recommend Caitlin, hands down, she is the best!

Planning my wedding from thousands of miles away was difficult. Caitlin came highly recommended by my wedding planner and I new after meeting her via skype, she was perfect. She was kind, focused, and professional throughout my day which was EXACTLY what I needed, especially when it came to the family pictures. She could see I was getting stressed by the additional pictures requested by the grooms family, she calmly looked me in the eyes and said "this happens at every wedding." I was impressed with her ability to recognize my emotions and put me at ease. My images came out fantastic and I will be able to remember all the details of my day because of her and Ryan.

This was our first experience using a professional photographer and we really enjoyed working with Caitlin! She is kind, fun, quirky, and personable. Having never had pictures taken, she really took the time to make sure that 1) we knew what we were doing, and 2) got out feedback about what was comfortable for us along with our likes and dislikes. She was prompt in responding to any questions or concerns we may have had and was always seeking feedback when necessary. She adapted to whatever changes we requested, even if that was on short notice. It was also nice to have a husband and wife team for our wedding day, really making us comfortable they were going to capture all of our special memories. I would absolutely recommend her for any photography needs you may have!

Caitlin is extremely detail-oriented, prompt, organized and I love that about her. She is professional, provided us with plenty of tips, tricks, and guidance for helping us look great in our engagement and wedding photos! We loved working with her and her awesome husband Ryan who was there when we needed him for impromptu photos! They have great eyes for creativity, made the process easy, and help make you feel comfortable, especially if you're camera shy. We loved working with them!!

I had a little bit of sticker shock when I first saw how much wedding photographers cost. I read that it really would be the best money spent for the wedding. I sort of believed that, but after the wedding, I positively, definitely, wholeheartedly believe it! Caitlin and Ryan are the nicest couple and that makes them even better photographers. The engagement photo session was awesome! It taught us how to pose for professional photos, so by the wedding day we were pros! Caitlin and Ryan were so nice and super accommodating. Caitlin made sure we got a photo in any location we wanted and Ryan carried all of our stuff around on a super hot July day. Ryan also got some great photos from a different perspective that we wouldn't have gotten if it had just been Caitlin. By the time the wedding came around, we knew exactly what to do which was really efficient and I appreciated that so much, because I really wanted to get to the reception and enjoy all of our hard work. I thought our wedding day was perfect! I couldn't have been happier! My only regret was that I was so hyped up on adrenaline that I barely remember anything that happened that day. I didn't see half of the decorations and it all went by so fast that I felt like I missed it. When I saw the wedding photos I cried, because I got to see everything I had missed that day. They were amazing. Your wedding will be such a blur, the pictures will be your memory and Caitlin and Ryan couldn't have provided better memories for us! We loved all of them, even the goofy faces that I apparently make (a lot). We almost went with another photographer and I'm so happy we didn't. Caitlin and Ryan are the best!

Wow, where do I begin?? Caitlin and Ryan were BEYOND what I expected. I love that they include an engagement shoot within the price because we were able to use those pictures as decoration in the reception hall. Caitlin was extremely fast in getting back with me whenever I had a question which was also very refreshing! During my wedding day Ryan and Caitlin made my husband and I feel very comfortable. No stress. No yelling orders around. They are the EXACT photographers you want on your wedding day. Everything couldn't of gone smoother! The pictures were done within three weeks and they were exactly what I expected - PERFECT. :) If you are looking for the perfect set of photographers then you shouldn't look any further! Thank you Caitlin and Ryan for everything!
