“I've had a lot of experiences working with photographers. Some create a stressful atmosphere in which it's impossible to relax or get a good portrait while others work at making the experience more pleasant and get better results. My recent experience with Kristina has raised the bar, making it almost impossible for any other to equal, much less surpass. The extremely inviting and comfortable experience that her kind and calming demeanor generated not only translated into a fun and memorable experience but some of the finest portraits that I have ever had taken. It appeared that she accomplished all of this effortlessly. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

"Kristy’s photos were truly breathtaking. She has a real eye for location, lighting, etc. Our family and friends were amazed at how well they turned out. The best part of is it that the whole experience was a ball of fun! She went out of her way to get our hard-to-handle 2 year old to pay attention and smile. A true professional through and through! Highly recommended!"

“Kristina has an artist’s eye and a mother’s patience, and our session with her was relaxed and easy. She was flexible with our kids, working with them to get shots that truly capture their spirit, and our family portrait is one I will cherish always. We loved working with her!”

“We loved working with Kristina! The whole experience could not have been better. My daughter was turning one and I wanted some photos of her as well as family photos. Booking with Kristina was quick and easy! We scheduled a photo session for the following week. She was very organized. She communicated with us ahead of time with where to meet, what to bring (if we want), and provided great tips on how to make the best of our photo shoot. When we arrived, parking was easy, the location was beautiful, and our daughter (who is in her stranger danger phase) absolutely loved her. I was worried that my daughter would get cranky, but Kristina, who is a mother herself worked super-fast and delivered some AMAZING photos! What I really liked about her is she didn’t make us do cheesy poses that are not genuine. She didn’t force us to conform to a particular style. She was able to read us and suggest poses that allowed us to be ourselves. The whole experience was so easy and Kristina was honestly such a pleasure to work with. We would book her again in the future.”

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Kristy on our family shoot. Both my husband and daughter are normally pretty shy when it comes to taking photos. Her enduring personality, and ability to make the shoot feel like fun made for some amazing family photos that I will cherish forever.”

“Working with Kristy was like the joy of spending a day with family without the stress. She is so warm and kind, and of course naturally wonderful with our kids. She made us feel at ease and was ready to capture a real moment instead of a forced one, which we love. We definitely recommend her.”

“I reached out to Kristina regarding pictures that I wanted as a remembrance of my dog. He was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer, and doesn’t have much time left. She was able to schedule an appointment for us within a week. She recommend the Fern Dell nature trail as a great place/setting for the kind of pictures I wanted. Our experience was was amazing. She was easy to work with and my dog really seemed to enjoy posing for her! I was extremely pleased with how our pictures turned out. Kristina captured so many great shots, whether it be perfect lighting, background, or smiles on our faces. I hope to use Kristina again on the near future, and I definitely recommend her!”
