Mother of the bride

My daughter’s photos turned out beautifully. Kristen and Roland were very easy to work with. I appreciated so much how their goal was to make the day about the bride and groom and what they wanted. Many of the guests came to me and complimented how friendly and professional they were. Thank you Captured Moments Photography for a great experience.

Excellent all around service

My daughter's pictures were amazing capturing all important moments. We purchased four of the books and they were awesome. They will keep forever showing generations the special day. I would highly recommend doing this! We could not have asked for better all around service.

Above and beyond expectations

They worked really well together in a team effort. They were very easy to get along with and they respected everyone in the family. They were not pushy and but also made recommendations for perfect photo opportunities. This was last year for our wedding. Made many great memories.

A Godsend of Photographers.

This is the groom writing this so that in itself should carry some weight. I’m not really good with pictures or getting my picture taken. These photographers helped eliminate the awkwardness and my hesitance for getting in front of the Camera. They are very polite and actually listen and take suggestions extremely well. They ask questions to help loosen you up and take the time to listen to you as well. Their level of dedication to capturing a shot is tremendous. One of them even hopped in the lake to get a good photo. They are efficient and extremely flexible. They got to know us so well that if they were to even sneak in with the family photo, we wouldn’t have noticed.

A Great Choice!

Kristen and Roland did an amazing job at making photos an easy part of our wedding day! They made sure that we got all of the shots we wanted and also got many candid shots throughout the day. They were very easy to get along with and easy to coordinate all the details with. A great choice for your big day, I would recommend them to anyone!

Great photographer

So many beautiful and fun photos it was hard to limit my selection for just one album. Kristen was so patient and helpful though out the entire process. She made the effort to get to know us and set up some special photo ops that commemorated our story and special day. Kristen and her husband fit into our wedding and reception like they were long time friends of the family. I met Kristen at a bridal show and she actually remembered me. She truly enjoys what she does and I'm so glad that I selected her as my photographer.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Kristen is the photographer for Bellus Academy photo shoots and their special events. I met her the day of the fashion photo shoot for the MUD makeup artistry class I took. She always has a smile on her face and she does her work tirelessly and creatively. Even at the end of a really long photo shoot day she is still giving the same attention and energy to each new set. She possesses a uniqe combination of serenity and energy. She is an artist with an eye for detail and works collaboratively. She is supportive of all the students. She is a positive, highly professional force in the fashion, portrait, bridal, professional, and editorial photography world. Update: I truly enjoy working with Kristen, her style of photography is very clean and clear. She has an ability to capture the most heartfelt moments. I highly recommend her.
