California's Central Coast weddings, photographed the way the day actually felt.
Oak groves, vineyards, ranches, golden-hour light. Now booking a limited number of 2027 + 2028 weddings.
Real moments, not stiff poses.
Kaitlin photographs the day the way it actually unfolds: the look between the vows, the grandmother laughing in the back row, the ten minutes of golden light nobody planned for. Gentle direction when it helps, and a step back when it doesn't.
She knows this coast. The oak groves above Santa Margarita, the ranch light in Creston, the way Paso Robles vineyards go warm an hour before sunset. Knowing the light means standing in the right place before the moment happens.
Based in Paso Robles wine country, photographing across the Central Coast, and always up for a good reason to travel.
“We were so nervous about looking awkward, and Kaitlin made the whole thing feel easy and fun. It honestly felt like having a friend there who also happened to know exactly what she was doing.”
