About Cat Alkire Photography

Whether I’m pinning a boutonniere, fluffing your dress, or dancing along when Mr. Brightside hits the playlist—I’m all in. I bring a calm presence when you need to breathe, a pep talk when nerves kick in, and genuine joy for celebrating alongside you.  With years of experience, I know when to step in, when to blend in, and how to make you feel seen and completely at ease. 

A creative spirit from the start. I fell in love with photography early—running wild with disposable cameras and dreaming in art class. My entrepreneurial streak showed up just as fast, selling handmade boy band pillowcases in AOL chat rooms (yes, really) and custom picture frames on MySpace. I had an online shop before online shopping was a thing—and eventually, it all just clicked.


When I photograph a wedding, I’m not just thinking about how it looks today—I’m thinking about how it will feel 50 years from now. I’m drawn to the lasting impact these images hold—the stories they tell, the memories they preserve, and the love they quietly carry forward through generations. These images become part of your legacy.
