Your wedding day is a once in a lifetime event. You want to live in the moment with your new spouse and have fun with your family and friends. It’s something you’ll talk & remember about for years and years to come.
Remembering your wedding day starts with working alongside a photography team that will document your day while you live life to the fullest.
Photography That Preserves All Your Memories.
That’s where I Come in.
My nana & I would have movie nights almost every weekend as a kid. Our favorites were The Wedding Planner, Shall We Dance, and Cinderella. I can remember always dreaming about being a wedding planner and how romantic it seemed. I mean Jennifer Lopez made it look so fun & simple!
As I grew older I developed an interest in photography, mostly focusing on graduating seniors & families during my high school & college years. I never considered doing photography full-time and kept it more as a passion project.
I eventually graduated college, got my insurance license, and went to work at an insurance firm. I realized during my time there that if I could run the firm then I could run a business myself. I opened myself up to photography part-time to test the waters.
Now I’m working exclusively with couples all over Michigan to plan & document their dream weddings, and I absolutely love it.
My love for weddings started when I was young.
Hi Friend, I’m Catie
'..and I absolutely love what I do."
Right after moving to Michigan from Indiana, I met my husband. We were head over heels for each other pretty quickly, and he has always been so supportive of my photography dream.
In 2022, he proposed to me in my apartment right after a date night in downtown Port Huron. It was our final date night for the summer because he was moving back to campus to start his final semester at college. He has always said this wasn’t his original plan, but he just couldn’t wait any longer. I was overjoyed and quickly said yes! We delayed wedding planning until the semester was finished so we could plan together.
He convinced me to make a career switch after we had our engagement session. He said it was time to lean into my passion as a full time business owner and do what made me happy.
And so, I did.
Here’s My Love Story
Now Let's talk your love story
My own wedding was the party of the century for our friends & family. We had decks of cards at each table for guests to play, and the music was fantastic. Even our niece, who was 4 at the time, stayed awake and danced the entirety of our reception.
Yes, that is a picture of me using a child's walker while ice skating. My sweet husband tried to teach me to skate for a solid year. I still can't ice skate.
I’m an avid reader. I love anything fantasy- think Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Throne of Glass, Red Queen, etc. I also have a soft spot for mysteries.
I taught all 3 of my younger cousins to drive and somehow lived to tell the tale.
My idea of a perfect vacation is being at a cabin in the woods and having bonfires almost every night. Gotta have those smores, too!
My husband's side of the family is Italian and our holiday potlucks ALWAYS include some kind of pasta dish.
My side is German with some Irish thrown in. That in itself explains my love for potatoes.
