approachable

elegance

I take time to know you, your story, your love. Every couple's journey is distinctively theirs and I find joy documenting the small, the intimate, the familiar. Photos to keep for your eyes only and those to share with the world, both with unmatched, lasting quality. Whether we're capturing portraits of just the two of you or an entire wedding event, your photos will resonate with you long after the party ends.

WEDDINGS

ENGAGEMENTS & couples

portraits

From our first meeting to your final gallery, I’m not just your photographer - I’m a calm, steady presence on your wedding day. This experience is about more than beautiful images; it’s about honoring your story with intention and care. Years from now, you won’t just see how it looked, you’ll remember how it felt.

Newly engaged, celebrating an anniversary, or just wanting to remember this season of life together, a portrait session with me is designed to feel less like posing for photos and more like spending quality time together to be remembered for years to come.

An invitation to preserve the stage you’re in, whether you’re expecting a new addition or embracing the fullness of family as it is right now. 

my promise

At Cat Barnes Photography, I promise a heartfelt, intentional experience - one where your story is seen, your love is honored, and your memories are preserved with warmth, care, and timeless artistry.

past clients

"Cat showed up early and immediately got to work getting pictures of our setup without us even asking.

The pictures of the reveal also came out perfect, we couldn’t be happier!"

We have been so pleased with her work that we have come back for another session."
