We're avid movie watchers (like seriously, 2-3 nights a week we watch a movie!). We love to eat all sorts of different kinds of food, which really isn't good when you're trying to diet. We love to cook, and spend time with each other. Thankfully we found a job that allows us to work full time, just the two of us and the awesome couples that hire us. Plus we sometimes get free cake out of it. That's always a sweet deal.
We have a cat, Charlotte-Anne who will only sleep in her catbed if it's inside-out. We like to travel, see new places and discover new local restaurants. We love graphic design (our previous day jobs). We love meeting new people, making friends and preserving memories in albums. We love hearing long stories spoken aloud. We'd love to hear yours. :)
Wedding Photography Coverage at the Champaign Country Club – Champaign, Illinois Post by David. – Cathy and David Photographers We first talked to Holly and Todd about their New Year’s Eve wedding less than 4 weeks before it was to take place. They had just become engaged in October and after being together for three...
Lovely! I LOVE the shot of the groom with the brides hand on his shoulder… great perspective
you guys rocked it out, as per usual!!!
AWESOME!!! i’m so glad that you’re doing so well, you deserve it!
Beautiful images…my favourite pic is the man tying (or untying) the brides dress?!!?
Regards,
Carl from T.O.
Stunning Work!!
Great set! I absolutely love that second shot!! They must be thrilled with these!
God these are so beautiful! I kept going through and saying, “That’s my favorite, no that one, no that one’s my favorite” .. obviously couldn’t decide haha. Great work!
I’m still laughing at the picture of the guy playing with her corset lacing…what a hoot! That’s great that you caught that moment on camera…hehe. These are all gorgeous pics! Her dress is absolutely b-e-a-utiful!
nice reception work
I love that shadowed hallway shot. There was something about it that was eerie AND beautiful at the same time. Eerily beautiful? That’s what I’m going with.
C&D you guys are masters of light! You rocked this! Love love love the shot with the green wall.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE them all – my fav was the senior portrait one. Uber creative as usual! 
props!
Great shot of the dance!!
Oh my gosh your photos are stunning, it was like we didn’t miss a thing!! I am amazed you pulled off such a detailed elegant affair in such a short time, and can we talk about this dress?! BTW, the girls in my office thought you were a bridal fashion model!! Love you to pieces chickie!! Sorry we missed but oh so happy for you and Todd!!
Love the senior portrait shot! How cute. 
Incredibly beautiful photographs of an incredibly special wedding!
I heart Ashton Kutcher (so dreamy!)! Though not quite as much as I heart your pictures (totally dreamier!)!!!
Stunning, clear, real, full of life. Awesome!
What fabulous photographs (use of lighting, angles, color, etc.) and it must really exciting to have awesome subject matter!!
Absolutely gorgeous! I just LOVE the shot outside with the lights behind them. Stunning!
The emotions are captured perfectly! What a beautiful night! Congrats again Holly and Todd!
Fantastic job, guys!! Loved the ones by the Christmas tree!! They looked so happy throughout the whole day!
Definitely difficult to pick a favorite. Loved the colors and the shadowing of the feet on the hard wood floor, the intensity of the two in a tango and the gentleman holding the strings. However my favorite was the far away shot in the darkened hallway that was both romantic and mysterious. Well done.
Such a beautiful wedding and so stunningly captured. They look so perfectly happy
Stunning! I can’t believe they pulled together such a spectacular wedding in just four weeks. Beautiful!!
Amazing photos Holly. You guys look so happy! Wish I could have been there, but these pics help me share the moment.
Love you tons!
What a teaser! Now I can’t wait to see all the wedding photos. Fantastic job, Cathy and David. It was a fun wedding, with many personal, precious moments. You caught some we didn’t know about. Love it, love it!
It is totally impossible to pick out a favorite because they were all so well done. However, the gentlemen holding on to the strings of Holly’s dress and his expression was PRICELESS!!
Love you! Mom
Stunning…when the subjects are perfect, so are the photos!
Fabulous! I love them! I can’t pick a fave, but I really love the groom and generations 
Those moments always get me! And the black and white of them 3 from the end.
You guys totally rock! Happy New Year!
Pure AWESOME-NESS! I love her flowers and that dress…GAH!! Nicely done once again. Oh, and I’d never heard of this venue before, which is bad since I’ve lived here for over ten years. :O)
Military Homecoming Photography of Tiffany and Joseph – Indianapolis, Indiana Post by David – Cathy and David Photographers I received an email from Tiffany several weeks ago that started with, “I don’t know if you remember me, but…” And we were like, REALLY? Of course we remember her!! In fact, anyone who read our blog...

i literally cried when looking at them!
Beyond beautiful! Amazing images that will be a family legacy forever! Awesome work!
powerful!!
This is amazing. What a great gift to be able to be a part of something like this. You guys did an amazing job!
You two did an amazing job!!! Wow I am speechless.
I don’t think it’s just the pregnancy hormones talking here… but this post made me all misty! I’m sitting at my desk, all teary-eyed… I L.O.V.E. the pic’s of Daddy and his boy.
Thanks so much for sharing
Somehow I didn’t see this post before. I totally remember them!
This is just beautiful.
And, well, I have no more words right now, just lots and lots of tears that I have to get under control, so I can go see a patient!
Great attention to detail in this set!
This is what your photography is all about AND the words that you say that make all of us cry with tears of joy. I haven’t been more proud of the two of you then I am at this moment. I agree with Parris and hope that this isn’t the last of these type of photos that you’ll be taking. I think it brings home to all of us all the sacrifices that these men and women do for our country. So glad there was a happy ending to the story you told over a year ago and that Joseph made it home safe and sound. Thanks so much for making me feel that I was part of it even though I wasn’t there. The pictures and your words took my breath away!
Bravo!
Love you! Mom
I am so happy to see you both using your passion for photography to give back. The need for people to INSIST on giving back to their local communities will surely expand in the coming dece. This story opens minds and hearts to the sacrifice of war. Liberty comes at an expense most of us are simply unwilling to pay.
These images help humanize the lives of people who we often polarize (most people are either pro-war or anti-war). One cannot look at these images and not FEEL something. They connect you to the story in a brilliant new perspective. I encourage you both to keep exploring stories continue your exploration of serving your community and country.
As a former Army wife, can I just say how INCREDIBLE it is that you were there for them to capture this? So fabulous. It is such an emotional time and you’re so exhausted, you don’t even remember it all. This is GREAT!
Amazing work yet again. You are truely artists.
Welcome home little brother, couldn’t be more proud of you.
TEARS!!!!!!!
Are you trying to make me cry?! (this blog should come with a warning. )
What a special and powerful story and series. Very touching!
The world is bombarded with photos everyday and images and I think people have begun to separate their emotions and really forget about these little moments. All over the world there are women, babies, and men who go through these moments every day; and I sincerely appreciate that I had the opportunity to witness this one. Thank you Gallagher’s for defending our country and thank you Cathy and David for the powerful images and support.
It is truly an honor to share in these two big occasions with all of you.
Wow…this was hard for me to look at. My brother-in-law is in Afghanistan right now and not due back home until July…every day of turning on the news takes my breath away for a moment. I just need this moment…the one you captured here…to happen instead…
this is sooo touching! ad what great images!!! amazing work guys!!
Loved the photo of the little guy smiling up at his Father. Really enjoyed this one.
What can i say? I keep going back to the blog to read and reread what you wrote and see the pics over and over. You are truly an artist David. Not only with photos, but with capturing moments- even with words. This was a very long awaited moment and it seemed like it took forever to finally come. You guys were so awesome putting up with the changes in schedule and being there in the early hours of the morning to support me and just be there for me. David- You and Cathy truly are outstanding photographers but you are so much more than that. I cannot tell you how much it meant to me that you were not only there for me to take pictures of such a wonderful occasion (at the last minute as well!) but you were supporting me just like you did at his deployment ceremony a year ago. You were so positive and energetic even at the crazy hours we were there (2:30-6:30 AM!!!) and you kept me laughing the whole time. It was great to have you both there and once again, i don’t know how i would have done it without you. You have managed to, on two occasions, really capture our feelings and emotions in a way that we will truly cherish forever. Thank you both for the patience, the understanding, the enthusiasm, and the support.
this is priceless… beautiful work, what an amazing moment.
you guys are incredibly giving. what a priceless gift.
amazing! I photographed something like this last year and it was such an honor to be a part of their lives, as I’m sure you feel the same…The photographs you captured are so wonderful and will be treasured forever I know! Great job!
I remember the deployment post from last year – it was stunningly captured and made me bawl my eyes out. This one has got me with tears running down my cheeks. It’s so beautiful. Wow. It must have been such an honour to shoot something as special and intimate as this!
perfectly captured! what an amazing moment for that family!
Retirement Party for Herrin Animal Hospital, Dr. Louis A.

We were so happy we were able to come to your party! What a beautiful tribute to a wonderful man! I hope your retirement finds you out here in the great southwest we’d love to see you! So glad you are both part of our family. We love you guys, Kari, Tom, Dani, Zack, Jake and Sam.
Hello Lou and Lori,
Congratulation on your retirement!
-do you really ever retire? My Dad’s is retired and I need to take a number or wait my turn in line to see him and my Mom.
Seriously, I hope for the best as you start your new life!
(without clocking in).
It’s a new chapter of your life. Make it the best days.
Hope you even remember who I am. I’m Rob’s best friend. We went for a joy ride in your Ferrari.
Enjoyed knowing you for as little as I have. Rob always keeps me up to date with your going-ons. Good and bad. (Kidding)
Love you and God Bless.
Larry Bee
What a wonderful experience you got to capture!
Joanne and I missed the party, but were honored by spending New Year’s Eve with Lou and Lori and our family…then visited their home on New Year’s Day, the first official day of their retirement. We cherish our infrequent visits with Lou and Lori and wish them a long and fulfilling retirement. I enjoy photography…when I see work of the level and quality of David and Cathy I feel like a blacksmith making a computer chip. We send our very best to Lou and Lori and all their family and many friends. Thanks to everyone for sharing.
Lou – We are so thankful to have gotten so close to your family. You are an amazing vet, but overall, just an amazing person. We love you! CONGRATULATIONS ON THE RETIREMENT!!! Cathy and David – you all did an AMAZING job with the photos!
Top notch effort David, for two great people. My prayer for a long and happy retirement!
(Man am I jealous…)
Cathy and David : you really made your Mom proud today with all these pictures and words. (of course Lou too) there couldn’t have been a more deserving man to have been given such an honor. Isn’t FAMILY GREAT !!! Love you guys! Christi
Wow, how awesome and an incredible story!
Oh! I just love Lou from seeing these pics! Wonderful!
What a beautiful story! I had tears reading it and then looking at the photos. You are so good! Thanks for sharing David xxx
Totally sorry we missed this event, but we don’t get the paper, so we didn’t see the “invite.” However, reading the words here and seeing the photos, we feel like we were there! Many congratulations to Lou and Lori, and we hope to be walking through the doors at Bortell Animal Hospital for many, many years to come. :O)
Seriously….words cannot even begin to express all the emotions Lou and I had when reading the words and seeing the photos of Lou’s retirement party. Tears were shed once again. You guys perfectly captured the essence of the day. I am just speechless and wish that I could put in words, that you guys seem to do to easily, just what this day meant to Lou and I and how happy we are that our son and daughter-in-law (C + D) are such fantastic photographers. You did this day PROUD! Thank you so much! Love you lots! Mom and Lou
Wonderful photos and an incredibly well written article. Really enjoyed it. I’m sure Lou and Lori will enjoy their retirement as well.
