Caitlin is a truly spectacular photographer and person. We hired her to photograph our wedding and engagement shoot. From the moment we met her, Caitlin's professionalism and talent has been apparent. We love her bright aesthetic and her ability to capture intimate and authentic moments. She also sets herself apart by incorporating film photography into her craft. Caitlin goes above and beyond to make her clients feel special, and genuinely cares for her clients before, during, and after the shoots. She always made a point to get to know us as people and as a couple. During our shoots, she made us feel calm, comfortable, and natural. She even sent us a care package with a personalized gift before our wedding. She is the best! We couldn't recommend Caitlin more as a photographer, and can't wait to use her in the future :)
We were immediately captured by Caitlin's use of light and color when we first came across her Instagram while looking for wedding photographers. We are so glad that Caitlin was our wedding photographer. She is beyond amazing, considerate, and just genuinely talented. Caitlin took our engagement photos, and when we got them we were even more sure that we made the right decision going with Caitlin. My husband is not naturally comfortable in front of the camera, but Caitlin gave easy to follow cues that made it look effortless. She also is super helpful throughout the wedding planning process, very responsive to emails, and just all around one of the most professional vendors we encountered during the wedding process.
Caitlin was so fun to have around on wedding day. She made us feel like we were hanging out with a friend as she took our photos. We got our photos and are so in love with them. It's so hard to choose which ones we want to print, there's so many good ones!
We would highly recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for a photographer.

Wow! Caitlin is an amazing photographer! She takes the ordinary and makes it extraordinary into beautiful high definition prints! Love her work!
My husband and I could not recommend Caitlin enough! Not only does she have incredible photography skills, she is the sweetest and most genuine person. Caitlin did our Engagement shoot, my Bridal Shower, and our wedding. Through every shoot, she had the most positive energy and creative ideas for photos. Her eye for detail is impressive and is shown through every photo she takes. Caitlin became more than just a wedding vendor to us, but a friend. Because of Caitlin, we have albums we will cherish for a lifetime.
This post is long overdue!* Caitlin was my photographer for my July 2022 wedding. She and I met at USC (Fight On!), and we were both part of a USC all women, service organization called the Helenes. I've followed her journey since then and when it became my time to get married, I knew I wanted Caitlin to be a part of it! Her style is so clean, airy, and timeless.
Caitlin was such a pleasure to work with. She's extremely organized; her website is so easy to use. Her demeanor was always friendly, approachable, calm, cool, and collected throughout the entire process, which helped enormously. Caitlin was able to handle more *difficult* family members on the wedding day with ease. She was also able to improvise when needed.
In terms of delivery, Caitlin exceeded our expectations. The best part about working with Caitlin *that you often don't get from other photographers* is that she sent a handful of edited previews within 24 hours. Who does that?! She then sent us more sneak peeks about a week later and delivered our whole edited gallery within 4-5 weeks. What!! Seriously, who does that? I have friends who are still anxiously waiting for their photos 3-4 months post-wedding from other photographers.
I've already told my husband that I want Caitlin to be our photographer for my maternity shoot and for our future family photos. :)
Thank you so much Caitlin for being a part of our special day. The pictures you took are so beautiful and we will cherish them forever. It was such a pleasure working with you and we can't wait to work with you again soon. <3

I don't even know where to start... I am just so GLAD to have found Caitlin. Caitlin shot engagement and wedding photos for my husband and I. Choosing Caitlin to be our photographer is one of the best decisions I have made in my life and I would choose her again in a thousand lifetimes. My husband and I are not huge fans of getting our photos taken because we normally feel awkward and uncomfortable. Unless we take photos ourselves, we tend to feel like we don't look our best. But of course, we had to do it for wedding purposes to have for our memories. Let me just say... Caitlin made the WHOLE process so easy, comfortable, fun, and ended up making us look like MODELS. We wanted photos that looked natural, fun, bright, with beautiful tones/colors and showed our true selves. Caitlin did all that and MORE. Not only is her turnaround quick but she exceeded our expectations. She captured the moments PERFECTLY and we couldn't be happier. Not only is she good at taking the photos but her whole energy is calming, therefore making the photo-taking easy and fun. She knows exactly how to help guide and communicate what you would need to do to look your best. She is so kind and honest and makes the process as least stressful as possible so that you feel good when she takes your photos, so that it shows in the final results. I can keep going on how professional and amazing Caitlin is but I will just say that not only is she great at her job, but she also felt like a friend you already knew for a long time. This is definitely not the end of us bugging her because we DEFINITELY would hire her again for baby photos. ;)
Where do I begin?! Caitlin is a wonderful and talented photographer. So organized, professional, and down to earth. My husband and I have worked with her numerous times over the span of a couple of years (due to COVID pushing our wedding back a year) for our courthouse ceremony, engagement photos, and finally our actual wedding. Caitlin was SO patient and understanding with all of the changes that covid threw at us. When working with her she makes you feel comfortable and gives good direction which is what we needed since we're not used to being in front of a camera. She has an amazing ability to capture organic moments and feelings that can be felt through photos. Not to mention she’s so fast with getting sneak peeks to you so you can get a little taste of what’s coming. We loved working with her and can’t recommend her enough!
The stars aligned when we found Caitlin to photograph our wedding in 2021. From our first phone call with Caitlin, she was so sweet, kind and humble. Initially looking at her portfolio, we were so impressed by how her work made us feel the genuine joy of her subjects. The day of our wedding she took every opportunity she could to capture all moments, big and small. She was so organized and knew exactly the kind of shots she wanted to get throughout the day. When we received our gallery we were floored with how they all came out, it was hard to narrow down our favorites. Without a doubt we would recommend Caitlin for anyone looking for a thoughtful, hard working and talented artist.
