FOR THOSE WHO VALUE BUILDING A LEGACY.
Photography is more than just a photo. It’s a story. It’s the weaving of a family tapestry that begins with “I do” and continues with each passing year. Every moment preserved becomes a tangible memory to share with those you love most.

Get to know ME
And that’s you! I have a unique ability to relate with just about anyone. It’s probably because connection is my love language. I became a photographer because I believe photos have the power to preserve relationships and bond us to experiences otherwise forgotten. My favorite thing in the world is to see you living in the moment, carefree and relaxed, genuinely enjoying the love you share. And, bonus, with me there, you have pretty photos to remember it by!
I believe in heartfelt conversations (preferably shared over a glass of wine or two!)...Most of all, I believe in creating images that tell who you really are, from the quiet moments to the ones bursting with joy. I believe your legacy deserves the whole story.
But my friends call me Cathi…
I’m Catherine

She is sooo talented beyond words. All of our pictures turned out amazing! We are currently struggling to select "our favorite" pictures for our photo album since we have so many that we love!
Your love story matters! From portraits to wedding details, I believe stories are meant to be shared for generations to come.
