“Caitlyn is extremely professional and has the best energy!!! We met a few times before the big day to make sure we were aligned with a specific non-traditional, documentary aesthetic and WOW she went above and beyond capturing every detail. Looking through the album truly made us feel like we relived the entire day which feels really special. Words can't express how happy we are, Caitlyn is the BESTtt!!”

“We couldn’t have been happier working with Caitlyn in photographing our wedding! Collaborating with vendors can be quite intimidating, but Caitlyn made the process so easy from start to finish. She was prepared with so many great ideas. The photos were absolutely stunning and they truly captured the feeling of our special day!”
