About Caitlin Howlett
Editorial photography for spaces worth remembering
I capture not just how a space looks, but how it feels — the flow of light, the texture of surfaces, the details that invite pause, and the unique story behind the design.
Your space isn’t just a physical environment; it has a story. I translate the magic you’ve crafted — from its design and functionality to its atmosphere — into images that communicate that story and invite others to step into your vision. My work sits somewhere between documentation and storytelling, revealing what makes each project meaningful. I focus on the quiet dialogue between design choices, refined details, and the interplay of natural light — capturing the essence of a space and the intention behind it.
My background
Before I became an interior and architectural photographer, I completed a PhD in psychology and pain science, and I continue to work in behavioural science research. My years in research have given me a deep understanding of how our perceptions shape our experiences and how environments influence the way we feel, move, and engage with the world. This dual perspective — as both researcher and photographer — informs the way I see, and photograph spaces.
For me, photography for me isn’t a hobby; it’s a professional practice that bridges my understanding of human perception with my passion for design, creating images that are intentional, considered, and deeply resonant.
Based in Adelaide, I work with architects, interior designers, builders, and luxury accommodation brands across South Australia.

Summer drives in my Troopy
Windows down, playlists on repeat, and somewhere between “are we lost?” and “best detour ever.”
Book worm (sort of)
Always juggling a stack of half-finished books, coffee in hand, and occasionally forgetting what day it is.
Retail therapy
Not just buying things - it’s reconnaissance for future inspiration. Also doubles as cardio.
