Having learned from a number of mentors – those who taught me to find the light, to be patient, and to tell the story in a single shot – I’ve worked as a professional photographer since 2006. Currently, I maintain my freelance business, and also serve as Boston College’s first female Senior Photographer.

It's my goal to learn what I can before I start working; once I begin, I try to be quiet, to study the room, to wait for genuine moments. I've been told repeatedly that I capture emotion and ambiance well; this makes me happy, since finding these fleeting instances drives my work. T​ime and again, the greatest compliment I've received​ ​is, “Well, that was painless.”

Whether you are hosting an event, getting married, or need a family portrait, I’ll make every effort to capture those interactions that best represent your time.

Caitlin Cunningham is a Boston-based photographer, available for work and travel. She lives in West Medford with her husband Tim Correira (also a professional photographer) and stepdaughter.
