New England Wedding Photographer

capturing MADLY IN LOVE QUIRKY COUPLES, worldwide
while making them feel comfortable AF

hello new friend!!

I'm Catherine!

My friends call me Cat! I'm a New England Wedding Photographer, based in Connecticut, and I've been doing this for six whole wonderful years. I photograph non-traditional and intimate weddings and adventurous couples. Although I'm based in CT, I travel worldwide for weddings. From the US, to Austria, to Scotland, I've also worn the hats of professional dog spotter, travel enthusiast, foodie, and game night planner, with an awesome partner, Cameron, and the best dogs on the planet, our Weims, Oban and Winnie.

Whether it's photographing tearful moments, or big giggly embraces, emotion is the driving force behind what I do. My not-so secret power is helping couples feel super comfortable in front of the camera, so your experience is epic and your final gallery is beautiful and timeless; full of love, candid laughter, adventure & the best dance party captures you could hope for. I will capture how your day felt.

Stoked doesn't begin to cover the fact that you are here. If you're looking for a photographer that will make you comfortable, capture the unexpected, laugh (and cry) with you and ensure your needs are met on your wedding day or session, you came to the right place; I can't wait for you to introduce yourselves!

INQUIRE

"my friends become clients
& my clients become friends"

AS SEEN IN

Couples like you, come here, when they're looking for someone to honor their wedding day as their own, and capture all of the big emotions and little moments, all the while feeling like someone gets you and your community.

If you're in the midst of planning and you're still searching for that secret sauce that allows you to relax and feel like your day is being captured as you envisioned (or even better than what you can imagine), you're in the right place.

I'll be there to make sure you feel amazing and that working alongside me, takes something OFF your plate, rather than putting more things on it. If you know that's what you want:

If you're here, there's a good chance that you are badass, life loving, QUIRKY adventurers with perhaps a non-traditional approach to your wedding day.

The difference between super awkward and kinda epic in your photos and experience, is finding someone who vibes with you.

I believe in the

I will not leave you with photos that will live and die on your screen, or with technology that will be long gone when you're ready to show your grandkids

FULL Journey

Your photos deserve more than just an online gallery. I believe so strongly in the magic, the longevity, and the beauty of print, that I include album design and consultations for every single couple that I work with. This is a gift that all of my couples take advantage of. It's why I feel that my job is only done once you have your photos in your album or hanging on your wall, to share with friends and family when they visit.

MORE ABOUT THE ALBUM EXPERIENCE

I want you to hold your legacy, your first family heirloom, in your hands, and feel immense joy.

Your album will hold your sweetest memories, and your most emotional ones.

An album tells your story... and a gorgeous custom linen or leather album cover wraps it all with nicely, with a bow.

Catherine Johanna couples delight in the custom album design process. Each and every album is unique and completed while you excitedly wait for your finished gallery. There are no cookie cutter templates here - custom is key. . At CJP "heirloom" and "luxury" are synonymous.

I feel so strongly about this, that I even offer album reveal parties with your closest friends and family so you can relive the magic, together.
