Captured by cairns
Your engagement session with Captured by Cairns Photography is more than just taking photos, it’s slowing down for a moment and celebrating the season of becoming.
From the very beginning, we want you to feel comfortable, connected, and completely yourselves. We’ll help guide you every step of the way. From choosing the perfect location and outfits to natural posing that never feels stiff or forced. Our goal is to create an experience that feels effortless, romantic, and genuinely fun.
During your session, we focus on the little in-between moments: the quiet smiles, the way you naturally reach for each other, the laughter that happens when you forget the camera is there. Those are the moments that tell your story honestly.
By the end of your engagement session, you won’t just leave with beautiful images, you’ll leave with memories attached to them. Photos that feel warm, emotional, timeless, and unmistakably you.
Because years from now, we want you to look back at these photographs and remember exactly how it felt to be this in love.
the beauty of your story simply, told.
From the very first hello, our goal is to make the process feel simple, personal, and exciting. Once you reach out, we’ll respond with availability, package details, and help guide you toward the session that best fits your vision. If you feel like we’re the right fit, we’ll secure your date with a signed agreement and retainer so everything is officially reserved just for you. After booking, we’ll stay connected to help with planning—whether that’s choosing a location, styling guidance, or answering any questions along the way. As your session approaches, we’ll finalize the details so you feel fully prepared and relaxed. From start to finish, it’s a smooth, supportive process designed to let you focus on what matters most: simply being present and enjoying your time in front of the camera.
1. Say Hello
2. Enjoy your session!
Your session is designed to feel relaxed, natural, and meaningful from beginning to end. We’ll guide you through the experience with gentle direction while also giving you space to simply be yourselves and enjoy the moment together.

Whether we’re chasing golden light, exploring a beautiful location, or embracing quiet moments together, our goal is to create an experience that feels comfortable, fun, and effortless. By the end of your session, you’ll not only walk away with beautiful photographs, but memories that feel just as meaningful as the images themselves.

WOW!!!!! Wow wow WOW!!!!! I am BLOWN AWAY by the pictures and the gallery that was given to us. Captured by Cairns is worth every penny and then some. I never feel beautiful in pictures, but the way they photographed me has me looking at myself for the first time in awe I'm so grateful and thankful for them, and would recommend to TO EVERYONE!!! The photos were cozy and exactly what we wanted!!! Our fur baby is notoriously hard to get pictures of, but they got us so many of our senior boy who was our ring bearer! So thankful to have these of him! Thank you again SO MUCH!!!!
Josh and Keri were amazing!! They captured my husband and I’s wedding and we LOVE the results!!! The photos turned out so incredible, we are so happy. Josh and Keri help with positioning, but also capture real moments to make for the best photos. Would definitely recommend them to shoot your wedding or anything else! They’re awesome. Makayla C.
Josh and Keri provided the most amazing photography experience for my engagement and wedding! They were fun and easy to work with, and their pictures are absolutely stunning! I will be using them for any of my future photography needs! Evie B.
They were beyond helpful with our wedding photos. They treated us with such kindness and care that it didn't feel like we had a professional relationship at all, it felt like they were friends celebrating with us. Despite the playful interaction and kindness they remained the utmost professionals and took amazing care in getting every angle in the best possible ways. I would and will recommend them to anyone that asks for suggestions, or if I know someone is planning an event with photography. Spencer K.
Amazingly beautiful work. They were early, worked hard to capture our event and had us the edited pictures within one week of our wedding. It was an amazing day for us and they made it better because we didn't have to worry about the photography. Highly recommend for your event! April D.
