Cat brings a calm, unobtrusive presence to weddings so couples and guests can relax and be themselves. She blends documentary-style coverage with thoughtful portraiture, finding the balance between candid reportage and considered composition. The result is a collection of wedding photos that feel timeless, personal and full of atmosphere — images couples enjoy looking at today and for years to come. How Cat works with couples is as important as the photographs she makes. She prioritises getting to know you, understanding what matters on your day and creating a relaxed, collaborative atmosphere.
