I thrive off of positive energy and always promise to bring my own.

For each couple I work with, I create a detailed and extensive timeline, posed list, and photo itinerary to ensure a smooth, relaxing, organized, and absolutely magical day.

I’ve got a case of wanderlust and adore nature. Let’s explore.

Just Pure Magic

Working with Caitlinn was absolutely one of the best (if not the best) decisions we made when planning our wedding. I've followed Caitlinn's work for years and just knew that her artistic style and approach would be perfect for our wedding. We've only gotten our sneak peek, but Caitlinn has already blown us away. She was such a joy to work with from our initial meeting to the day of. One of our favorite parts of our wedding was when we ran out for golden hour photos. We'd recommend her to anyone if you want to have a blast and receive the most gorgeous wedding photos.

Don’t pass go! Hire her immediately

Words cannot describe how amazing Caitlinn is and how much my husband and I love her. From our first contact, I could tell Caitlinn was so vibrant and passionate about her work. Capturing love is an art and she is a true artist. Caitlinn did both our engagement photos and our wedding photos, and I am just in absolute awe of her talent. I mentioned to her that I generally feel uncomfortable taking photos and I don’t normally like the way I look in them. She was able to create such a wonderful, fun and memorable experience for both our sessions. My husband and I could not stop laughing and smiling. I am in love with every single photo she has taken. Not to mention the printed photos and wedding album were absolute perfection in every detail, from the layout of the photos to the amazing wooden box they came in. Our wedding was May 25th at The Garrison, and I find myself looking at the photos Caitlinn took almost every day and I am just transported right back to that day. I can’t forget to mention her second shooter, Laurel, who was absolutely amazing as well. They made such a great team. Other than marrying my husband, the best decision I ever made was to have Caitlinn as our photographer for such a special day. Now I am able to relive our wedding over and over and still feel on cloud 9 because the photographs are so magical

The best there is!!

Caitlinn was the absolute best!!! Her and her staff were extremely friendly and made the entire bridal party feel comfortable. She’s got an amazing personality. Our sneak peak photos were sent to us the next morning after our wedding. I was in complete shock at how thorough and prompt she was. Our photographs were stunning. She went above and beyond to find the best locations for us. I highly recommend Caitlinn to catch all your memories on your magical day. You won’t regret it!!

Caitlinn rocks!

Caitlinn and Laurel were fantastic to work with and made us feel really comfortable. The 2 hours of photos we did FLEW by as they had us at ease and comfortable, and the pictures are phenomenal. The two of them were very professional but made the whole experience so fun, even with it raining the entire time. Also during the rest of the evening I didn't even realize they were still there snapping away. They were so discrete during the reception and not obtrusive which was amazing!

The day after the wedding Caitlinn was able to send us 100 edited photos which was incredible and had us in tears at how good we looked. Overall I would just describe the photos as "warm" and "personal" which we absolutely love.

10/10 I highly recommend them!

Hire her immediately!

To say I am obsessed with Caitlinn’s work would be a major understatement! She was our photographer for our wedding in the Hudson Valley in May 2023. The events of the day were supposed to be half inside and half outside, as the venue had a super gorgeous property with lots of outdoor areas for photos. Unfortunately, it ended up raining A LOT that day, so we had to shift things around and move everything indoors. Caitlinn was familiar with the property as she had photographed weddings at the venue before, but she had never done a fully indoor wedding there. She and her co-photographer, Laurel, quickly jumped into action to scope out the place and find the most gorgeous places to take photos indoors. We also caught a break in the rain before the reception, so Caitlinn and Laurel got us outside to get some of the beautiful shots outside we were hoping for!

Not only did our photos turn out incredible but they were both a blast to hang out with all day. Also, I kid you not, in less than 24 hours she sent a sneak peek of our photos (~80 images) and got us the full photo set (over 1800 pictures) SO quickly! The photos couldn’t have turned out any better! They perfectly captured our love and the excitement of the day. They were the perfect mix of your traditional posed photos and the true candids documenting all the special moments. I cannot rave enough about how great Caitlinn & Laurel were in helping make our special day even more perfect! I without a doubt recommend her to any and every one looking for an amazing wedding photographer!!

Brilliant Photographer and Magical Human Being

This review is long overdue, but our approaching anniversary made me realize I still hadn’t shared how amazing Caitlinn is and how important she was to our whole wedding journey.

Caitlinn was with us since day one. My husband hired her to photograph our proposal and take our engagement pictures right then and there. It was a magical experience and she made us feel so comfortable. I never thought I’d like getting my picture taken so much, but when Caitlinn is behind the camera it’s so much fun!

The venue we picked was on the far side of Connecticut, hours away, so we initially started looking for a different photographer. Thank goodness we came to our senses! And thank goodness when we did, Caitlinn was still available. We were so thrilled to be working with her again.

As the wedding got nearer, we realized that we were going to have to downsize due to restrictions, and enough of our family and friends wouldn’t be able to join us that we started planning wedding part 2 for a year after the original. Caitlinn was such a key part of our vendor team, that we picked the second date based on her availability. She’s that good.

And what makes her so good? She’s a brilliant photographer, she makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera, she is an absolute joy to be around. She’s someone my gramma’s friend would call a pistol. Just full of zeal and energy and humor but totally down to earth and fun. All that combines to make her a fantastic person to work with. Your photographer is one of the people you spend the most time with on your wedding day, and you will not regret spending the day with Caitlinn. Even more so when you get your GORGEOUS pictures back! Caitlinn photographed our proposal, our original wedding, and wedding part 2 and she delivered every time. It means so much having all these memories so beautifully captured.

Absolutely incredible experience

Before I was even engaged, I had my eye on Caitlinn Maharr-Daniels photography. My cousin got married and she was their photographer. After seeing their photos online, I knew I wanted to keep my eye on her. After that, she did my other cousin's wedding, as well as my best friend (and wedding officiant) Katie's. By the time my wedding came around I was certain who our photographer would be. My husband and I also do photography a bit for work, and Caitlinn's eye is absolutely unreal. She's incredibly professional, and the entire day even when things in your schedule can go sideways, she's incredibly flexible and quick while getting all the shots she needs. We only got our sneak preview but I know without seeing the rest my mind will be absolutely blown. We also both agreed our favorite part of the day was taking weddings with her and her assistant. She is incredibly kind, funny and unique! I highly recommend her for any wedding. I can't wait to frame all these photos!

most amazing photographers in the world

Where do I begin? Caitlinn and Brian are two truly incredible and TALENTED human beings. Our wedding day would not have been the same without them. Their vision is truly unmatched. Not only are they super spontaneous, fun, and creative but they are the best in the business. OUR FULL WEDDING GALLERY WAS READY IN TWO WEEKS. TWO WEEKS!!! That is unheard of! I am a wedding vendor myself, and I consider myself so fortunate to have been able to snag them for our wedding! They are truly my favorite photographers to work with. I am not very big on taking photos of myself, posting personal things on social media, or loving what I see on the other end of the camera and let me tell you…. I have posted about every possible photo this wonderful duo has taken for us. Even our engagement shoot was amazing. I can honestly say, I have never hiked 2 miles to the top of a mountain after a snow storm to take photos by a waterfall. AND THEN GOT OUR FULL EDITS BEFORE WE EVEN ARRIVED HOME! It just goes to show how passionate they are about their work. I’ve been trying to find an excuse to have them photograph us again. Hopefully sometime soon... thank you for everything Caitlinn and Brian. You guys are the real MVP and deserve 100 stars!

They MADE our wedding

Where to begin with Caitlinn and Brian? The Ramsdens were the first vendors we decided on and the only vendor I cared to keep when we had to change our entire wedding due to COVID (so much so, that I planned our new date around them)... I came across their photos on a blog and my decision was all but made - decision was solidified within SECONDS of facetiming with them. It instantly felt like we were connecting with friends that just happened to have the most talented eye for wedding photography in the world. On our wedding day, I was a bundle of nerves until Caitlinn and Brian walked into the room where I was getting ready. I was immediately at ease and just full of joy. Our families adored them, and currently we cannot speak to a single friend or family member without them absolutely gushing about our wedding photos. The day was something out of a dream and we get to re-live it over and over again in full color and feeling thanks to our photos.

The Best Photographers Out There

After getting a taste of what it was like to work with the Ramsdens when I was in my friends wedding, I automatically knew I HAD to have them photograph mine. Basically, their work is just so magical and beautiful that I made sure my wedding date fit into their schedule. Brian also officiated our ceremony and it was the most beautiful and loving ceremony ever. I would recommend them over and over again. Thank you so much Caitlinn and Brian for being so flexible and amazing during my crazy Covid wedding planning!
