Truly cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Kristen and would give her 10 stars if we could. She went above and beyond to make our experience of getting some branded/business photos an exceptional success. From the first call, we knew we were in great hands…. She handled all of the planning and organizing with great ease. On the day of, she made us feel so comfortable and the session felt very enjoyable. She was also extremely patient with our requests and suggestions. We just received the sneak peek and the photos far exceed any expectations we could have had (and we are very picky)….. thanks again, Kristen, you knocked it out of the park!

We had the absolute best experience with Kristen for our headshot branding shoot. From start to finish, everything was seamless. She made every single one of us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera (which is not easy!), kept the shoot running perfectly on time, and her communication was amazing throughout the entire process. We were blown away when she sent preview photos the very next day—such a thoughtful touch and so appreciated. She is professional, kind, organized, and truly lovely to work with. We couldn’t be happier with the experience or the results and would recommend her 1000% to anyone looking for branding or headshot photography. NOTE ** These pics are some of our unedited previews - we should receive our fully retouched shoot back soon and we are so excited!!

Kristen is such a gem to work with. I have been doing quarterly branding shoots with her for a couple years now. She really is a girl’s girl. Always helping us pose, showing us the photos to make sure we are confident with how we look. Being so patient with all of us. She always over delivers in terms of photos and is sooo quick too. We can always count on her to make us feel comfortable as well as beautiful in all of our photoshoots.

Kristen was absolutely wonderful to work with start to finish! From capturing our engagement photos last fall, to this summer with our wedding. Kristen was very responsive and flexible with all my questions and last minute curveballs. She met with us in person to have a clear outline on expectations, but also to make us feel reassured and safe trusting her to capture our moments! Kristen even helped answer wedding questions and had a list of vendors should we need it, and did a lot behind the scenes leading up, and day of. We are so in love with our pictures! From wedding portraits to capturing fun and loving candid moments. She did everything and more. Thank you so much Kristen for being a calm and anxiety diffusing presence, for helping direct and guide our families, helping us with with posing, and making us feel our best!!! The photos are everything and more. Looking forward to having more photos taken by her in the future ! Also one last thing, the turn around time for getting our photos back was so fast and reasonable, but that aside she even had previews for us to see the next day!

It's barely been 24 hours since the shoot, and I already received a preview! Talk about keeping the momentum going! I can't WAIT to see the rest. Kristen came highly recommended, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. The entire process and experience to date has been fantastic!
