Welcome

Hi, I'm Caitlin! I’m a Seattle photographer, scientist, and former competitive gymnast. I work with athletes, professionals, and families. The goal is simple: feel good during our session & love the photos after. Most people walk away saying they didn't expect it to be that easy.

How I work

I'm a scientist by training, which means I notice the little details: the light, the timing, the micro expressions that describe the moment. What I love about every session is finding a way to capture life so that it conveys the emotions and the energy of that moment. The way a kid looks up at their parent without thinking. The laugh that catches someone off guard. The quiet pride at the end of completing something hard. Those are the images I care the most about.

Based in Seattle. Available throughout the Pacific Northwest.
