Story of Catlin Rogers
From childhood, Catlin Rogers was captivated by animals — sketching cats, following birds, and spending hours at shelters. What began as a hobby grew into a professional pursuit when she discovered the power of photography to reveal emotions that words cannot. Her passion lies in immortalizing the fleeting glances, playful energy, and soulful eyes of animals.
Philosophy
Catlin’s philosophy is simple: photography is empathy. She believes that every animal has a story, and capturing their essence helps us see them as more than companions or subjects — but as beings with depth, spirit, and individuality. By blending art and animal essence, her exhibitions inspire compassion and appreciation.
