About

We're not show-up and shoot, fly on the wall photographers. We weave ourselves into your wedding day capturing the day like someone who lived it. An experience that showcases your love, not only with your partner but your bridal party, family and guests. We don't believe in robot posing or manufactured emotions. We're here to guide interactions between you, your love and your party that show off your true emotions.

We've had the honor of capturing over 160 weddings, and over 200 couples during the last five years. We have fine-tuned a custom experience that allows you to have FUN while together. We gently pose you while focusing on genuine interaction so you have photos that showcase the spark you share and make true memories.

Before your engagement portraits and wedding, we take the time to get to know you and your relationship so that we can see the way you interact, how you have fun together and what makes you crazy in love! Understanding your love helps us capture and create photos full of real emotion.

No one wants to be stuck in a box. Your wedding is unique. It doesn't fit in a cookie-cutter package either. Your wedding or elopement isn't about the photos, it's about celebrating with the person you love most in this world. Captured in a way that fits your vision. We get to know your wedding, create a custom quote based on your needs, and allow you to choose what feels right for your wedding day.

Cat and her team=amazing!

Cat was amazing to work with. Cat was super easygoing, professional, and made the whole day feel effortless. She captured all the big moments plus so many candid, in-between ones that we didn’t even realize were happening — and those ended up being some of our favorites.

The photos are absolutely beautiful and feel so natural and true to the day. On top of that, Cat brought such a calm, positive vibe that made everyone comfortable in front of the camera. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and would 100% recommend Cat to anyone looking for an awesome wedding photographer.

Cat DeLine for President 🇺🇸

Just kidding… kinda.
Cat is absolutely incredible as a professional and as a person. She has the rare ability to capture all of the special moments of your day effortlessly, and man she is SPEEDY about it too! I never felt like our wedding day or rehearsal dinner were taken open by hours of photos (which gets exhausting for anyone). Instead, I was shocked at how many incredible pictures she got in such a small amount of time! Cat’s also a perfect wedding guest to have in general—lots of goofing around and dancing 🕺🏻 I would recommend her to anyone and everyone that wants a quality, beautiful, and FUN photography session. Hiring Cat (along with our wonderful planner and videographer) was one of the best decisions we could have made for our wedding, and we’re so happy we get to look back on such stunning photos for years to come. :)

Hire them immediately

Booking Cat and her team as our wedding photographers was one of the best wedding planning decisions we made by far. I chose Cat because I loved her photography and editing style, but as we began to work with her, we also loved how organized, fun to be around, and instrumental in planning our wedding she was. Cat helped us build our timeline and even took it upon herself to reach out to our venue, hair, and makeup vendors to build our wedding day photography timeline.

My husband and I feel so lucky that we were able to experience working with Cat, Danielle, and Ashley, so we definitely know how amazing and awesome the whole team is. Our engagement shoot with Cat was so much fun and she made us feel so comfortable in front of her camera.

For our wedding, we were so lucky to have Danielle as our lead photographer and Ashley there assisting. Danielle and Ashley are so much fun, were a joy to be around, made everyone laugh, and made us all feel so comfortable. The two of them are seriously a dynamic duo! At the reception, every time I looked up, Danielle was right in my eyeline seeing if my husband or I needed anything. She definitely never missed a moment, and was always there somewhere capturing everything.

What I love about their photography is how much it looks like us. We have so many photos of my husband and I just laughing together, being ourselves, and enjoying the day with our people. You can truly feel the happiness through the photos and that’s something we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We literally ordered a digital picture frame because how are we supposed to choose only a few photos from our day to have in our home?? It was truly such a joy to work with Cat, Danielle, and Ashley. They remain one of the best choices we made for our wedding and I’ll be forever grateful for them.

HIGHLY Recommend!!

Danielle was the photographer for our wedding and she was AMAZING! Cat and Danielle met with us multiple times prior to the wedding and truly lived up to their promise to be a fun, positive addition to our day. Danielle was a joy to work with and made us feel comfortable in our awkwardness! We cannot say enough postive things about Cat and Danielle!! Highly recommend using them as part of your day!!

Best Decision Ever

Cat DeLine is a name everyone needs to know. Upon planning our wedding, my husband and I prioritized photography over any other element. With it being one of the few lasting aspects of a wedding, we wanted to invest in the best we could find. There is a ton of talent out there, but Cat & her team are in a league of their own. Anytime I scrolled through local wedding vendors’ social media posts, I clicked on the photos I loved and every single time, without fail, it was a Cat DeLine photo. If that wasn’t a sign to book her I don’t know what was. We had our initial call with Cat to get to know each other and it felt like becoming instant friends. She genuinely cared about (& remembered) details of our lives that had nothing to do with photography, and made it clear that she was our biggest supporter. You’d assume someone front running such a successful business would not simultaneously be able to show humility and take time to personalize your experience, but Cat has mastered it all. We constantly laughed in our zoom chats and felt very comfortable, which is so important when investing in a wedding. I left our experience feeling like I could trust her with my life- seriously!! (Bonus points that she loves cats!) With a record high temp of 96+ degrees at our ~outdoor~ June wedding, there was no hiding the discomfort in the heat. However, you would never know Cat & Danielle were sweating under their (idk how many) pounds of equipment. They remained so professional and high spirited, which truly rubbed off on everyone else who was not handling the heat well (me). Throughout the wedding and afterwards, I can’t count how many friends & family said they loved our photographer. Cat & her team are worthy of every accolade, praise and achievement they receive and I will now forever be THEIR biggest supporter! Our photos are unreal; the most beautiful art we’ve ever seen. We were sent so many sneak peaks immediately after the wedding, which was really appreciated and took a lot of time on Cat’s end. I wish it wasn’t weird to hang every single photo in our house, because we love each of them that much. If you want a no-brainer, “best-decision-you’ve-ever-made” photographer, do yourself a favor and book Cat DeLine Photography!

Chef's Kiss

Every couple's wishlist photography team should be DeLine Photography!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Cat during the engagement shoot stage through our big day and now beyond. I was able to interact with her second shooter Ashley on our wedding day. As my wife and I are both vendors, choosing a photographer carried more weight than most, but DeLine Photography was the right choice and showed us that with every step of the process. Cat made us feel especially relaxed and most importantly, ourselves, with a taste of what to expect at our engagement shoot and then having that same experience on our big day. I don't leave reviews, but for this experience I will make an exception, happily!

SO much more than just a photographer!

Booking Cat as our June 2024 wedding photographer was the best decision we could have made! From day one, her incredible personality shines through and you’ll want to be (or think you already are) best friends with her by the end. She will always tell you to treat her photoshoots as a date night/day and she truly means it. She knows exactly what to say to make you feel comfortable, get a laugh out of you, or erase the awkwardness completely. Everyone in our bridal party couldn’t stop talking about how awesome she was! You can tell by Cat’s work that she truly cares about capturing your relationship, it’s not just about getting a pretty picture for her (even though they’re all gorgeous!). She wanted us to be ourselves and goofy and playful, which is exactly what we wanted in our pictures. Also not to mention, she went completely above and beyond on the wedding day and acted way more than just a photographer. She worked closely with all my vendors to make sure the day went off without a hitch and helped out with anything if she could. She was also my biggest hype woman and truly cared about all our family members and friends. I could go on and on about how gorgeous her photos were and how amazing of a person she is! I could not recommend her more and don’t know why anyone would ever choose another photographer over her!

Amazing photographers

This review is long overdue!

I cannot express how amazing the whole Deline team is! My husband and I were nervous that our photos would look staged and not organic. We expressed this to Cat when we had our consultation and she went over how they get there natural/organic photos. Ashley was our photographer and she did an amazing job at our engagement photos and our wedding photos. At our engagement photos she perfectly captured our goober pup but more importantly we had so much fun walking around getting our photos taken!

On our wedding day Ashley went above and beyond what I would expect a photographer to do. My husband almost passed out at the alter, and she helped get water, juice, and a cold towel to help him through it. She also rearranged the timeline for our family photos so we could just take a minute to sit with each other after the excitement from the ceremony. I know my husband appreciated the reprieve from the onslaught of family and friends teasing him. He is still embarrassed by the whole thing, but when we look at our photos he doesn’t even remember that part of the wedding, all he remembers is how happy he was during the whole day. She was amazing at getting our wedding party and family together for our photos too which honestly was like herding cats at times.

Our photos are amazing and we have a wedding photo wall and an engagement photo wall. She perfectly captured our wedding vibes which were just laid back and fun.

Amazing Experience with DeLine

We had such an amazing experience with Cat and Danielle! From the very start Cat was so lovely to work with. We really felt like she took the time to get to know us and took to heart what we felt was important. Cat went above and beyond, helping us with planning and spending extra time with editing.
Because we aren’t local we met Danielle on the day of our wedding, but she made us feel so comfortable right away. We loved her and so did our guests. And the photos are absolutely amazing!! Danielle captured so much feeling and emotion and it’s exactly what we wanted. We can’t recommend DeLine Photography highly enough!

DeLine Photography is the best of the best!

The DeLine team (especially Cat!) was so wonderful to work with from start to finish. We eloped, and Cat made the whole process feel so special. We love our beautiful photos. We even brought our two dogs with us, and Cat did an amazing job capturing photos of them - not only that, but she knew we were in town on our own and even brought her husband to keep an eye on them while we took photos. It was so thoughtful and went above and beyond.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
