For couples who want to remember every feeling, not just every photo.
I've been behind a camera since high school, and what's never changed is this: I'm drawn to the moments people don't think to pose for. The way your mom's hands shake a little while fixing your veil. The look between you two right before you walk out. I'm there to notice those things — not stage them — so that years from now, you're not just looking at pictures. You're right back in the day, feeling everything you felt the first time.
EASTERN WASHINGTON
PHOTOGRAPHING SINCE THE FILM ROOM IN HIGH SCHOOL
When I'm not photographing weddings, you'll probably find me chasing my kiddos, drinking coffee, re-watching Bridgerton or The Office for the hundredth time or going on a roadtrip to Montana or Texas where I am from. I don't take myself too seriously, but I take your day very seriously — which is probably the best combination you could ask for in a photographer.
what you can expect.
I'm Caiti — wife, mom, veteran, and the person who cries happy tears at literally every wedding I shoot (yes, even after doing this for years). I moved to Moses Lake knowing absolutely no one and put the camera down for a bit but I missed it too much! So here I am re-building in Eastern Washington from the ground up, one wedding at a time. My faith is a huge part of who I am, and it shapes how I show up for you — with care, with presence, and with the belief that your love story matters.
my background & philosophy.
My path to photography started long before I ever picked up a professional camera — it started in a darkroom in 2012, watching an image slowly emerge in a tray of chemicals, and falling in love with the whole process of it. That sense of patience, of something real and unrepeatable taking shape in front of you, is still at the center of how I shoot today. Before I ever photographed a wedding, I served in the Army, including deployment to the Middle East during the Gulf War era. That experience shaped me in ways that still show up in my work — a steadiness under pressure, an eye for what actually matters in a fast-moving day, and a deep respect for the people who trust me with their most meaningful moments. Stylistically, I blend a deep romanticism with a fine art editorial sensibility — I want your photos to feel like a love letter and look like they belong in a magazine. My philosophy, at the end of the day, is simple: show up prepared, shoot with intention, laugh a lot, and hand people back a piece of their life they'll treasure forever.
Life behind (and beyond) the lens
As y'all may have read above, I'm married to a wonderful husband and mama to a spunky 1.5-year-old boy and my sweet 8-year-old girl. You've probably seen those memes about how "when you support a small business, this is who you're supporting..." — and honestly, some days I think it's the other way around. I love getting to work with brides, families, and every wonderful person in between. Photography is my passion, but the people behind the lens are what make it all worth it.

INTENTIONALITY
I move slowly and pay attention. Every choice — where I stand, when I press the shutter, what I leave out of the frame — is made on purpose, not by accident. Your day deserves that kind of care, and so do you.

CONNECTION
Connection comes first — always. Before the camera, before the timeline, before anything else, I want you to feel like yourself with me. That's when the real moments show up: unguarded, honest, and completely yours. I'm not just photographing your day — I'm capturing what it felt like to be loved that day.
[back to values]
FRIENDSHIP
I want you to feel like you're spending the day with a friend, not hiring a stranger with a camera. That's how you relax, laugh for real, and forget I'm even there. The best photos come from that ease — not from posing, but from being comfortable enough to just be yourselves with me.

FAITH
My faith shapes how I see love — as something sacred, given, and worth honoring with care. I believe every couple I photograph is walking a story that started long before I met them, and I don't take it lightly that I get to witness a piece of it. Whatever your beliefs, I photograph your day with the same reverence I'd want someone to bring to mine.

REAL MOMENTS
I don't direct your day — I document it. No forced poses, no "look this way and smile." Just your actual wedding, unfolding the way it really happened: the nervous laugh before you walk down the aisle, the toast that goes off script, the exhausted, happy collapse at the end of the night. Years from now, these are the photos that'll take you right back.
