The way it really felt

 

The people you love, the things you didn’t see, and the moments you never could have planned. I’ll give you direction when it makes the photograph better, step back when the moment speaks for itself, and pay attention to everything happening in between. The result is a gallery that feels like your wedding, while looking better than you remember it.

Hi, I am Kaitlyn Trainham

Wedding photographer in Texas and beyond

 

I’m Kaitlyn, the person behind the lens who will probably feel more like a friend by the end of your wedding day. I’ve been doing this full time for six years now, which somehow means I’ve been a part of 100+ wedding days (!!!) and I still genuinely love getting to do this. I’ll give you direction when you need it, step back when you don’t, and pay attention to all the little things happening in between. More than anything, I want you to feel completely like yourself, have the best freaking day, and end up with photos that feel like you and your people.

following you anywhere

 

 

 

 

I’m based in Bryan–College Station and photograph weddings all over Texas, from Houston and Austin to Dallas and the Hill Country. Louisiana will always feel like home, so getting to photograph weddings there is extra special to me.


But I’m definitely not staying put. Whether your day takes us somewhere else in the U.S. or across the world, I’m always down to pack a bag and come with you!
