a collection of
little ephemeral moments
When you look back at your wedding gallery, I want you to be able to step back into your own memories; golden and romantic, and full of detail.
Creating images that feel authentic to you means seeing the day through your eyes and telling the story through the perspective of the relationships and connections between you and everyone gathered.
People come first, and photography second.

Let's chat
Having a connection with the person you're trusting your memories to is so important. I love to hear about your vision for photography and what your day will look and feel like. Before you book, I'll give you a call to answer any questions you may have and be by your side through the whole planning process to answer your photo questions.

Engagement Session
Breaking the ice prior to the big day can be so helpful in feeling at ease at your actual wedding. Whether you're looking for an intimate, at home session, or a styled, editorial shoot, I'm happy to collaborate with you! My couples enjoy documenting this part of the journey as well as previewing how they'll appear on camera.

Before the aisle
Throughout the planning process, I'll be sending over insights and tips that'll help us make the most of your photography. I'll be working closely with you and your planner on everything from timelines and family portraits, to those smaller sentimental details. These conversations are at the heart of crafting a wedding gallery that looks just like it felt.

After the party
When the wedding is over, I get right to work weaving raw files into a story. Within a few weeks your wedding gallery will be delivered right to your inbox. Share, send, post to your heart's content, then we'll talk about getting your photos off the computer and into your hands with album design and printing!

Engagement Sessions
If you're nervous about looking awkward in your wedding pictures, this is the perfect way to get comfortable. We’ll plan your session together, spend some time hanging out, and you'll come away with beautiful portraits of the two of you. I love engagement sessions because I love getting to know you before the wedding day!

"She brought so much positivity, warmth, calm, steadiness, and love to our day. "
Kristen is kind, calming, fun, and exactly the kind of person you want with you on your wedding day. I am so glad we chose her!
Our wedding photos are a dream. Looking through the albums makes us feel all the emotions over again. They are beautiful, emotional, posed and candid photos that we will cherish forever.

"From start to finish, we knew we were in good hands."
We never felt rushed on our wedding day because of the timeline she helped us create. Overall, Kristen is an experienced professional who KNOWS what she’s doing. It was easy to trust her vision in the midst of all the decision fatigue that comes with wedding planning and her services are WELL worth the investment. I can’t recommend her enough!
