If it is irrelevant why did you mention it?
Be more focused about your product and services and the name will come to you.
Use you name. No one knows you yet. Caldwell Photography has a nice ring to it.

You have a great name, why not brand yourself. Just name the site after yourself

It can cost a bit of branding promotion expense it you use a simple descriptive name that describes the function of the site, which search engines can identify, rather than some vanity name. Some niche sites are able to use an exact search phrase people use in searches as a site name, giving it a measurable advantage in search ranking.
In the past some successful people have ended up selling businesses with their name, leaving them less options for the next business.
There are sites with tools that help you come up with fictitious names, including: wordlab.com, naming.net, wordoid.com, lingzini.com, namestation.com, some of these tools look up the domain name availability as you go.
Any name not already used in a .com web site name is probably not trademarked.

I would go by the alias "Tom Cruise Photography" Just don't tell Tom Cruise.

You can try Jenna Cadwell Photography or Photography By Jenna. Just think of what will look best on a business card. You should almost get legitimate SEO experts to optimize your website and avoid SEO cowboys.
