Hi, I'm Crissy, the artist behind the lens at Catapult Photography. I am one of the lucky people in this world who can say that they truly love what they do! Photography is my passion, and I am always striving to find new and creative ways to deliver beautiful photographs to my clients.
Be sure to visit my portfolio site to view my work, or contact me to book your session!
I had a fun photo session in Chillicothe a few weeks ago with Angela, Mark, and Chris. It was a very breezy, but beautiful spring day, and the photos turned out just lovely! Angela mentioned that she and her family were moving into a new home, so she was excited to order some large wall prints, which turned out so nice!
- Chrissy did such a wonderful job! I love all of my 16x20's. I cannot wait until I get to hang them in our new home. When the time comes, I will for sure have her taking our pictures again!
Many of my clients are already aware of this, however, since finding out what we’re having I thought that this was a great time to make the official announcement on the blog that I am pregnant! I am 21 weeks, and we are expecting a baby boy in August. We could really not be more overjoyed! 
I am feeling fantastic, and will be shooting and booking portrait sessions through mid-July.
It’s probably a little early to be posting embarrassing photos of my son on the internet (see ultrasound photo on the right), but, being the lover-of-photography that I am, I just couldn’t resist.!
- Congrats to you Crissy!
- SO happy for you. :) Can't wait to see some amazing photos of your handsome little boy in the future!
- Congratulations!! I'm so excited for you guys! I'm looking forward to more belly pics and lots of baby pics when the time comes!!
- I am so happy for you both! You'll make great parents, and there certainly won't be a shortage of photos along the way. :)
- Congrats!! Hope all goes well with the rest of your pregnancy and delivery :) I have two little one's, my youngest being a boy and they are so much fun!
- congrats!!! :)
- Congratulations Crissy!!! I am so happy for you and glad you're feeling great! I shot a wedding up until 3 weeks before I had my baby boy - I think I was even more exhilarated to work up til the end! Can't wait until Baby Boy is here so you can post lots of photos!
- Congratulations! :)
- I love the pre-baby pictures! Too cute! Thank you again for all your hard work at the wedding... I'm excited to see the pics. I'm sure they will turn out awesome! Hope all is well w/ you and baby! :) Congrats again!
- yay!! I am due in August too... August 24th..I will have to follow your blog to see how your labor goes!! I just came across your logo and wanted to see how you used it on your blog...very chic!! Best of luck to you!!
While most of my business comes in the form of family portraits, children, babies, seniors, and weddings, I also occasionally shoot professional headshots for actors. Free flowing lifestyle portrait sessions are a great creative alternative for actors looking for headshots that really spotlight their personality. I had a great time shooting Elizabeth, and I am looking forward to seeing where her new career path will take her!
- these are beautiful, i love that first shot of her in B&W, great expression!
- I am looking to put togather a portflio and was wanting to know priceing for your headshots and as far as makeup arists?
As usual, I am so busy with the shooting and editing side of the business that I have neglected to post all of the wonderful session images captured over the past few months. So, for your viewing pleasure, here are a few shots of Adie’s senior session which was shot on one of the last sunny days of the fall season. This session was shot at her family home near Grove City, Ohio. The property and house were just perfect for the mood that I was trying to capture!
- These are gorgeous, Crissy! I absolutely LOVE the first shot!!!
Boy oh boy, am I behind! I have several sessions to post, starting with Valerie and Billy’s engagement session photos! Valerie and Billy really wanted to do their session in the snow, and while it wasn’t the snowiest day of the winter, we did luck out by having a little bit of the white stuff on the ground at least. Our shoot took place on a very cold and windy day, but I think you can see that the warmth of their connection still managed to show through beautifully!
I am looking forward to shooting Valerie and Billy’s wedding in October!
- Love it, want more updates crissy gal! You're clearing excelling at freelance photography, it's wonderful to watch the collection accumulating on your blog here. MORE PREGGIE LADY! <3 Jo
- I commented on this already surely.. maybe you accidentally deleted it.. well anyways, it's a delight to see you updating your blogs... and keep at it, your photos are fanfunkintastic
- alright, I don't get it.. she who's studying computer programming stupidly says about missing posts
Someone really needs to smack me on the fingers for not blogging these beautiful sessions much sooner. Following are some of the amazing moments captured and Keith and Lacie’s beautiful wedding from October. They were married on the most gorgeous autumn day, probably the last really beautiful day of the fall last year. Perfect timing!
Also, just a note to my potential wedding clients out there, my spring/summer 2009 is getting extremely full at this time, so please contact me soon if you would like to book your special day!
- The last two shots are total perfection!!
- Every time I see a new set of photos that you have taken it takes my breath away. You have such an amazing eye and truly capture them so beautifully.
- Hey!! I've been keeping an eye on you since deviantart! And most recently livejournal (apartmentseven), and wondered what you've been up ta! Apparently tons! And it all looks great!! I'm proud of you!! !! (for good measure)
- Crissy!!! How did you get so talented!?!? These images are amazing. You are truly gifted :)
Sometimes everything just comes together in a shoot. The people, the clothing choices, the setting, the weather, and the atmosphere of this shoot with Jaclyn and Seth were just absolutely perfect. We shot on a rather cold day, but these two are just so in love that their warmth really glowed through in their pictures.
We shot most of the session at the Chillicothe Country Club, and wow, what a beautiful setting this turned out to be. In fact, this particular shot recently made Flickr.com’s Explore page, and has received quite a bit of attention since.
Thanks to Seth & Jaclyn for a great shoot, I’m really looking forward to your wedding in May!
- Gorgeous job, Crissy! I love everything about these shots. The first two are absolutely incredible!!!
I hope that those of you in the Chillicothe area have been enjoying the beautiful snow today! Luckily we just purchased a new 4-wheel-drive vehicle just in time for the winter weather, so we no longer have to worry about getting stuck in our driveway! We got a beautiful white Dodge Durango, and my Catapult Photography logo is going to look awesome on the back glass!
I also need to post a few images from a recent session with the adorable Carter & Casey! I am still working on getting caught up with my session blogging, I’m getting there! Hope you enjoy the images!
Moving right along with the session posts, I present the completely adorable Ethan! These photos were taken at Ethan’s home in downtown Circleville, Ohio. I have photographed so many cute kids this season, and I have even more in my queue that I will be posting in the coming weeks, so stay tuned. As for now, check out a few of my favorite images from Ethan’s session!
It’s time for me to start catching up with some recent photo sessions on the blog! To kick things off, I wanted to post a collage of photos from a recent session with the Griffin family. I photographed their youngest son, Ben, over the summer and it was fun to have the opportunity to meet the other boys during the family session. Hope you enjoy!
