Observer, Documentarian, and Wedding Photographer

A true lover of a crispy Diet Coke and a fresh blow out.

After finding my love for photography in my high school darkroom and determining I'm most comfortable behind the camera, CBP was always in my sights. It's my passion and privilege to work with my incredible clients - from the gasp at a proposal to walking down the aisle, I want to be a part of it all.

words from

"Cat captured so many meaningful moments—some we didn’t even realize were happening at the time—and looking back through them brings it all rushing back.

I truly love our wedding photos and will always be grateful to Cat for documenting the day in such a thoughtful and beautiful way."

Donna & Jeff

"My girlfriend & I booked a session with Cat to take photos for our first Christmas card together.

We were both nervous about looking awkward or staged. Cat made it simple and enjoyable for us which really came through in the pictures!"
