I love to portray natural emotion in my photography, and I find that weddings are all wonderful opportunities to catch these genuine moments. With a fresh perspective, I portray unique interactions, expressions, and relationships in all of my images. One of my favorite things about being a photographer is watching as people begin to relax in front of the camera; it is so fun to capture natural moments as individuals interact with their surroundings and with one another!

Whenever possible, I enjoy taking a more photojournalistic approach to my photography. I do take a variety of posed shots, but I focus more intently on capturing real moments as they happen. I prefer for each photograph to look and feel natural.

In the sea of photographers who may be overwhelming you at trade shows, and bombarding your mailbox, you MUST remember this name: Kristen Gardner Photography. As a Ceremony Officiant - and across my lifetime - I've seen the work of more photographers than I can remember, and Kristen Gardner stands tall above the rest. She has such a gentle and approachable way about her, and seems to be able to coax the authentic, relaxed and natural personalities of her subjects to the surface. This is a rare talent, and one that a true professional must posess in order to bring the timeless and transcendent quality we all hope will be captured forever in professional photographs. From the day I began using Kristen's photographs on my website, I received positive feedback immediately. If you want your first glimpses of the proofs to take your breath away, remember three words - Kristen Gardner Photography. Check it out: www.kristengardner.com.

Kristen is a fabulous photographer who also ensures that you are having fun while your photographs are being taken. No drudgery with her, but don't let that fool you as she takes her job very seriously. She captures the moment so well and gives her all to make sure your photographs are wonderful. Rev. Will and I both particularly love her candid photographs and her artistry in using different angles. You can entrust your wedding day to her with full confidence.
