Photographing your forever moments since 2011 🤍

caitlinandluke.com Hi, friend! I'm Caitlin, and I'm MORE than a photographer.

I'm a portrait photographer in Bloomington, IL serving joyful, classic couples and families. I'm also Luke's wife, Grayson & Beau's mama, and a doodle mom running on Jesus & iced coffee here in Central IL! Since 2011, I've been serving Illinois couples & families who desire a stress-free, streamlined & joyful photoshoot by providing an experience that allows my clients to fully enjoy this special

season and receive jaw-dropping, joy-filled photos they'll pass down for generations. As a mama to two boys under 2½ years old and a photographer in Bloomington, IL, I know exactly how you feel as a mom: You're perpetually shocked at how time flies, you're a little tired, and you've never been happier in your life. I built a business on what I experienced as a retired wedding photographer of 10 years and as a mother myself in order to make portrait photography the most joyful, easy experience for my clients!

A relaxing Sunday at home watching football (and church online because !) seemed like the perfect day to finally share a few of my favorite moments from Kellie & Connor's wedding in August! ✨

When we were full-time wedding photographers, we loved sharing photos online as quickly as possible… it was part of the experience we had crafted for our Caitlin & Luke Couples, and it was so fun to share sneak peeks right away for our couples’ friends and family to see immediately.

But for Kellie and Connor’s wedding, we wanted them to be the very first to share anything from their special day… that was really important to me!

So without further ado, here are a few of my favorite moments from one of the most meaningful weddings we’ve ever had the honor of documenting! Kellie and Connor’s wedding day was emotional, joyful, and SO much fun, and we are so grateful we got to be a part of it with them.

My favorite moments from this special day included all of the sweet first looks Kellie planned, the florals, the ceremony (which you know I cried through!), the copious amount of portrait time we had, and the reception speeches, which aren’t pictured due to said portraits that I couldn’t narrow down 😉 Kellie and Connor’s family and friends made this an incredibly special day for them, and Luke and wish them nothing but the absolute best in this new chapter. What an amazing story!

We love you, Kellie, Connor, Halle and Krew! Thank you for including us as a part of your day and your family’s story. Xoxo! 🤍

This shoot felt like the perfect one to resume sharing my work here on Insta 💛 Many of you have been following our past bride and dear friend Kellie Bullard’s journey since she tragically lost her husband and the daddy to her two kids back in 2021. She shares so beautifully, candidly and honestly about grief and life after loss, and knowing her makes me so proud.

Kellie has walked through the unthinkable with such grace and bravery, and she never fails to lean on her faith through it all. I’ll let you head to her page (or her incredible bestselling book!) to read more about her story, because it’s more than worth your time!

No one would have ever chosen or imagined the path life has taken her down, but it’s undeniable that God has an amazing plan for her and her two babies through it all. And tomorrow, Luke and I have the total honor of getting to photograph her and her fiancé Connor’s wedding day at the beautiful Haven on the Farm.

Words can’t describe the emotions I feel as I prepare for tomorrow, and we truly can’t wait to spend the day with these two and their loved ones as they celebrate their marriage!

Kellie and Connor, we are more than thrilled to come out of our wedding photography retirement for you two and are honored beyond words to be the ones capturing your wedding day tomorrow. We love you both and can’t wait to see what God has in store for this next chapter for you two and Halle and Krew. You have an amazing story, and I truly think the world of both of you!

Here are some of my absolute favorites from this stunner of an engagement session at my favorite BloNo location, Ewing Manor. Swipe to the very end to see the most meaningful X in the skies at the end of their session- Kellie’s profile shares more about the significance of these to her since the loss of Alex 🤍

See you TOMORROW, Kellie & Connor! It’s going to be spectacular!
