The wedding day was the day I truly saw how Kris was destined for this career. I had many guests and many pictures we requested to take. She had a timeline organized for all shots to be taken and the best part is she rallied all the guests to ensure it was done efficiently!
Kris has such a likable attitude that is also very confident and commandeering. She had no problem being vocal, letting guests know where to be and how to pose etc. When you’re a stressed bride thinking of a million things—you need that. I felt like she gave me the assurance that I could trust her to do her job not only well but above and beyond. It was a huge load off my back. Again, the photos turned out so beautiful. I couldn’t ask for more.
I think the photos will speak for themselves but Kris is someone I could truly see myself being friends with, she is such a genuine, loving person and I think that is the most important aspect when working in the wedding industry. She loves love so much, she loves your love so much and she is the biggest supporter you could ask for.

Kris was an amazing photographer to work with. This was my first time having professional pictures taken and she calmed my nerves and comforted me through every step. She made me and my boyfriend feel relaxed like working with a friend, and we didn’t feel self-conscious about how awkward we are getting our pictures taken. And the photos she captured were absolutely beautiful and made me feel beautiful.
We booked with Kris after we found her on instagram. She made sure I felt good about my decision especially since I was booking internationally and hesitant. Kris made the whole experience enjoyable and we shared many laughs, helping to ease some of the initial awkwardness and overall made our first ever photo shoot experience amazing.
Take it from someone who hates being in front of the camera, Kris easily makes you feel comfortable and guides you to try different poses. Her encouraging words make it run smoothly. She knows how to hype someone up, and be your #1 cheerleader! My favorite thing about Kris is she'll take the time to get the right photo and won't make you feel rushed.

She is an absolute dream! We felt so comfortable in front of the camera with her! Our entire session felt like catching up with an old friend. She was willing to be so adventurous on our shoot and went above and beyond to make our pictures as special as possible. 5 stars is not enough and we will always recommend her over and over for all your photo needs!

"Kris is the only we go to for photos! She did our engagement and a year and a half later, our maternity shoot! She’s flexible and makes sure to work with you to ensure you get the best experience and results out of the time you spend together. Not to mention how amazing her photos are! I cry every time I get the final pictures.
She’s incredibly personable, makes you feel relaxed and honestly, it doesn’t even feel like you’re standing in front of a camera! Even my camera shy husband is a natural when we’re in front of her lens. She’s the only one we trust to capture our once in a life time memories."

"Our experience with Kris, from beginning to wedding day to delivered photos, was truly sublime. She is an incredibly talented wedding photographer, planner, coordinator, and moral support rockstar all in one. The same care and expertise she puts into her photography, she puts into every aspect of her business, every interaction with couples.
Kris far surpassed even our wildest expectations as a photographer, and we are so grateful for it. She made what could have been a stressful experience so easy and so joyful.
Kris took the time to get to know my husband and I as a couple, she took every note and sketch and idea we had for our day, listened to our “why,” and shared in our vision and goals for our day to make sure she captured it perfectly."

"Kris is such an amazing photographer with a beautiful soul! She was the perfect person for our wedding day!
During our consultation, we connected immediately. We talked through some ideas and she was able to bring our vision to life. It was effortless working with her. My husband and I are not the best at taking pictures but, with her direction, she was able to capture us so beautifully. We get so many compliments on how great our photos are. If you choose to go with Kris, you WILL NOT regret it."

"Highly recommend! Kris was our wedding photographer took pictures for our ceremony day and for a "Trash the Dress" session. I have never had a photographer so involved in ensuring that every shot has purpose. We never had to think much on how we should pose or what expressions to make because she coordinates all the shots beforehand.
She even gave us suggestions for our dinner venue and accompanied us to take additional pictures after the wedding. A very professional approach to her work with room to work with her clients to get their inputs for the shots they want.
I will looking back on these photos for years to come and she creates a lasting memory for any event you wish to capture. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!"
