    Cait Patton Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From our very first interaction, Cait was open, enthusiastic, and dedicated to capturing our special day in a beautiful and unique way. Her work is truly exceptional - the photographs are stunning and capture all the little moments that made our wedding so special. Cait was incredibly reasonable with her pricing and was always willing to meet with us, listen to our ideas, and help manage our guests on the big day. She offered great suggestions, was a calming presence for the bride, and was just plain fun to work with. We are thrilled with the final photos and will cherish them for years to come. I would highly recommend Cait Patton Photography to any couple looking for an open, talented, and dedicated wedding photographer and have already had another friend use her to capture their special day!

    Cait Patton Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the beginning, Cait was very communicative and made sure we felt comfortable and confident in her abilities. Her beautiful work speaks for itself - we were blown away by the gorgeous photos she captured when my fiance hired her for a surprise engagement shoot. We can't wait to have Cait as our photographer on our wedding day and know she will do an amazing job documenting all the special moments. Cait is truly talented and we are so excited to work with her!

    Cait was absolutely amazing to work with. She helped me pull off a surprise proposal for my fiancée by blending perfectly into the crowd and capturing the exact moment I got down on one knee. The photos of that moment are priceless she caught every emotion beautifully. Right after the proposal, Cait continued with a spontaneous photo session around the area, and the pictures turned out incredible. She made us both feel comfortable and excited during the shoot, and her creativity really showed through in the final photos. I can’t thank her enough for helping make such an important day unforgettable. I’d recommend Cait Patton Photography to anyone who wants genuine, heartfelt photos of life’s biggest moments.

    We used Cait for our wedding ceremony and reception in September. We had such a wonderful experience with her! From working with me before the wedding to pre plan and prepare to then “winging it” with me the actual day of the wedding- as NOTHING went as planned the day of despite months of preparation! She was so encouraging, supportive, as well as professional. Her knowledge and experience in weddings was a huge plus and extremely helpful. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and will always have a place in the heart of myself and my husband for going above and beyond at our wedding and reception. Her photos were amazing and helped capture the beautiful moments of our day- the formal and the candid so we can remember these good times always… while recalling all the stories of how it all went ‘not as planned’! From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for your services and for being the wonderful person you are.
