About

Hi, I'm Cailin

I shoot seniors mostly, and couples and families the rest of the time. Almost always in the hour before the sun goes, almost always somewhere with tall grass or tall trees.

I am not going to make you pose like a catalogue. We walk, you laugh at me, I get the shot. Bring the dog :)
