In a weird world of algorithms and trends, I am so thankful when clients take the time to leave me some love on Google! It does really help Google suggest my website to people who are looking for photos. Thank you, I have the pleasure of working with the best people, ever!

Hey there! 10 things to get to know the gal behind the camera.

1. I am Catherine, my family has always called me "cat", but I was heavily trained as a child to not allow others to call me "cathy".

2. I am a wife to David. We have been together since we were 16/17 and have been married for 27 years this August. He is the best partner to do life with and my biggest supporter.

3. A couple years ago, we bought an older RV and have had fun visiting 13 states, with more adventures to come (hopefully).

4. I always wanted four kids and am so blessed by my crew, 21, 20, 18, 16. They are fun, loyal, competitive, and all so different. They are the joy of our lives and when they are all together, my heart is so full.

5. I feel like I have always known God, but gave my whole heart to Him when I was 12 at church camp. He has made my life full of adventure.

6. I have worked out in various ways my whole life, but for the past year, I have been on a lifting kick, and love it!

7. After taking a 17 year hiatus from the classroom, I started teaching again in 2020 and just finished my 6 year teaching elementary school. I did home school my kids for a lot of years as well.

8. I have travelled to 14 different countries. We lived in Africa for 7 years (and my kids spent most of their growing up years there). The majority of the countries I have been to are on the continent of Africa.

9. I love watching sports (especially ones my kids are playing) and my goal is to try and always say "yes" when my kids ask me to do anything active with them. I may be slower, but I still want to be able to do whatever it is they ask me.

10. I have always loved taking pictures, but got serious about my gear and education in 2023 when I launched CW Photography NWA. I am wildly shocked on a daily basis that I have this business. I not only love being creative, but I also love the business side of things.

Ok, that it! Ten things about me. Friend, tell me something about you in the comments! I want to know!

For the Parent Who Wants Photos Where Their Senior Looks Like Themselves..

Have you ever seen a candid photo of yourself and thought,
“Oh wow… that is absolutely not what I thought I looked like.”
Same here.

You know the ones; the angle is terrible, your eyes are half‑shut, your chin has multiplied, and somehow your friend still decided to post it.
Perfect.

Here’s the thing: seniors love movement shots.
I think it’s because those photos feel more like them.
More relaxed. More natural. More like the smile you see at home when they’re not overthinking how they look.

When your senior steps in front of my camera, I’m watching for the version of them that feels real.
The way their friends see them.
The way they laugh when they’re comfortable.
The way their confidence shows up once they settle in.

I guide them into poses that feel natural.
I fix the tiny things they’d normally stress about.
I hype them up in a way that feels chill, not over the top.
And then I wait for that moment. The moment where they forget they’re being photographed and their real personality shows up.

If you’ve ever had a bad candid taken (and then posted for the world to see), tell me below.
Feels like a universal experience at this point.

Two nights ago, our “earlier in the day rain forecast” kept bumping rain later, and later into the evening.

I had an extended family session scheduled for a group of 14. The family was unable to reschedule because all of their five children were only in town together for that evening.

I prayed all the way in to downtown Rogers and we pushed the session back as much as we could to hope the rain cleared out.

The rain ended for our session and we captured some beautiful images of this family of 14, who were so kind and laid back. The little ones even had a blast splashing in the puddles!

Moms! If you want senior photos where your senior looks confident and comfortable, here’s some tips on how to choose the right photographer for them.

The photographer you choose matters, but maybe for different reasons than you think.
🌹It’s not about who has the fanciest camera.
🌹It’s not about who has the trendiest socials.
🌹 It’s about who your teen actually feels comfortable with.

Because confidence shows up in photos. Comfort shows up in photos. Feeling seen shows up in photos.

I broke down the biggest green flags in a quick blog post to make choosing the right photographer for your teen a bit easier.
