About
You're hiring a unique eye that is geared towards portraits and fashion. My shots are unique, distinguished, skillful and beautiful. Before the date of the shoot, I'm working with my client with their mood board, discussing location, what they will be wearing or what they want to wear. We plan if they want a make-up artist on hand. I've built up a contact sheet of talent that I can pull from if clients want to elevate the photoshoot. It is important to me to be honest, therefore if the the shoot requires more expertise on hand like a stylist, etc. then I will suggest it. If not, I will let the client's know they don't need to spend that much.
My job is to be as communicative as possible with all my clients and to be completely transparent with my pricing and delivery. My pricing is based on:
-Securing shoot date
-Pre-planning
-Shooting
-Selects and image processing
-Editing
-Transportation
My services:
HEADSHOTS- MODEL TESTS- PORTRAITS - EDITORIALS - EVENTS (PARTIES/WORKSHOPS/BIRTHDAYS)
I hold my work to a high standard and I want my clients to be absolutely satisfied and so please read all my reviews because they are true testimonies to my hard skilled work!

I had a great time working with Caitlyn. Before our shoot, she gave clear, friendly communication about where and what styles we would be shooting. She was at the meeting point early and prepared. She communicated her vision well, she directed well, and she offered great feedback on the poses that I moved through. The photos turned out excellent and I look forward to working with her again!

I have worked on a couple shoots with Caitlyn in New York City. Not only is she very creative and talented but her energy and enthusiasm makes for an exceptional collaborator. She has a great eye that shines through in her photography creating both beautiful and powerful photos. I would love the opportunity to work with her again in the future.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I work well within your budget and can create a customer package for you. Typically I have a free 1 hour consultation, we call or meet to discuss what it is you want/need for your event, portrait, headshot or fashion shoot. During that we will go over your budget and discuss the options.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Please reach out to me via email or phone number. Please state what services you'd like to have done and we can meet or call for a free 1 hour consultation. We will also discuss the referral program with all new clients.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a background in Merchandise Marketing and Business Management from Fashion Institute of Design and Marketing in Los Angeles, CA. I'm a self-starter photographer, I grew my passion for it while I was living in New York. I've studied photography through directing my own photo shoots, many hours and years of online research and one-on-ones with other well-known photographers in the industry in New York City. I never stop learning, I'm always picking up new books, magazines and constantly spongeing in new information.
