Meet the Photographer

Hey Love,

I'm Caitlyn, or cat for short!

I believe photography is more than capturing moments—it’s a way to glorify God by reflecting His beauty, His design, and the stories He’s written into each of our lives.


After documenting more than 50 weddings, I’ve come to love the full story—both the breathtaking, emotional moments and the quiet, in-between details that often mean the most. Your day is made up of more than a timeline; it’s a collection of memories, movement, and meaning.


My approach is centered on authenticity. I’m not here to overly pose or perfect every second—I’m here to document you as you truly are. That’s why you may notice a softness or intentional blur woven throughout your gallery. These images hold movement, emotion, and the real energy of your love—the moments that feel just as meaningful as they look.


Every couple’s story is unique, and it’s an honor I don’t take lightly to preserve it with care and intention.


I can’t wait to get to know you!"

"Caitlyn did our wedding photos and we were blown away. From the moment we started the process, all the way to the wedding, she so was incredibly organized and helpful! Our engagement photos and our wedding photos perfectly encapsulated those amazing memories. Caitlyn is so kind and fun and work with. If you are looking for a photographer that has perfected capturing beautiful posed and candid photos, hire her! You will not regret it."

"Caitlyn not only stayed in touch constantly throughout the wedding planning process in a professional manner, she also became a friend. We were able to create a friendship that made the wedding day even easier. Her character and demeanor are one of the BIG reasons I chose her. It worked out even better that her ability to take pictures far exceeded what I believed I was getting.


Our wedding photos are the most beautiful photos I have ever seen!"

Clients Say

"I cannot say enough about our experience with Cat. We had a very heavy atmosphere over our original wedding photos due to external circumstances with another photographer, and Cat helped us regain the joy of our wedding day by retaking our bridal photos for us this year. It was a dream to be a client of hers - I stalked her Instagram for so many months, loving all of her content. She is not only professional, timely, and talented, but she was so fun to work with and even made my husband, who hates being in front of cameras, relax and feel comfortable. We are in love with our albums and look at our edits every day. If you want someone to capture important moments and help you document life along the way, Cat is your girl. We cannot recommend her and her services enough!

"Cat is AMAZING! My husband and I had her take our engagement and wedding pictures. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She was super efficient, too. The pictures turned out great - her talent is really unmatched. We would highly recommend Have and Hold Photography to literally anyone and everyone. "
