Look no further- Chantilly Lace is the BEST

We booked Chantilly lace for our engagement photos, boudoir, and wedding photos and every single picture was amazing. Krista is personable, professional, and truly listens to your vision and desires then makes them happen.
During our engagement session, we took photos on Folly beach at sunset and as we were taking the photos she asked if we would be willing to try something out…which led to myself and my now husband rolling around in the sand and they turned out to be some of my absolute favorite photos. I had friends tell me our pictures looked like they belonged on a book or a magazine because they were so beautiful.
When I took my boudoir pictures, Krista made sure I was comfortable and felt confident and and I loved all of them! As did my husband☺️
And wedding day- just, WOW! We walked through the whole day prior to and Krista and her team made sure we got EVERY picture we were hoping for. I had some spur of the moment ideas and they made it happen. And the video….OH MY GOODNESS. I can’t count how many times I have watched it and each time I find a new favorite part. I have received countless compliments on the video and after posting it I had a coworker say “not me crying at your wedding video…I felt like I was there”. And that is spot on. When I rewatch the video, they captured every meaningful, important, funny, loving moment imaginable. Their editing style is truly amazing and makes it feel like a movie. They used our vows as the audio (along with music) and tied our vows into the video (ex. We talked about our son and he showed up in the video…my husband mentioned looking into my eyes and they did a shot of me looking at the camera). It is truly the best wedding video I have ever seen. Not to mention- turn around time was faster than expected and getting a sneak peak within 24-48 hours was AMAZING!
If this isn’t enough for you- just check out their website and you will see exactly what I mean. I couldn’t recommend Chantilly Lace enough and I look forward to working with them again!

The Best!!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about the Chantilly Lace team! They have been with us through our entire journey from proposal to wedding day. We booked the whole team for our wedding day- day of coordination, photo, and video. Sara and her team turned our reception vision into reality and made sure the day ran so smoothly with no hiccups! Krista and Brandon captured every emotion we felt on our day in our video. (we cry every time we watch it🥹) They love to have fun so they keep you laughing and make you feel comfortable in front of the cameras. Stephanie and Katie nailed our photos. We have pictures to look back on from every moment of our day. There’s no one else I would have trusted with our wedding. I cannot count how many compliments we have received on our wedding, with big thanks to this team. I highly recommend their package deals, They all work together and communicate so well to ensure everything is perfect!

Wonderful Business!

Fabulous work from these ladies! A friend of mine used Chantilly lace photography for her wedding and I loved the images she received. I booked Chantilly lace for photo and video. We havent gotten our images or video back yet but I still wanted to leave a review before I forgot. I have no use for wedding wire anymore!!! Yeahh!! I loved how this company stayed in contact with me and my wedding coordinator. Krista spoke with my coordinator alot about the time life for the day and made sure that it flowed easily for the photo and video team. I really love how she made sure there was time put into the day for photos. My husband and I were told how to pose and what to do with our hands and how to walk and where to go. It was so easy! All we had to do was just listen to her direction and do some kissing and that was it! our teaser photos were amazing!!!!!!

Team

Krista Garrand
Krista Garrand
Owner

Krista started Chantilly Lace as a hobby photography business in 2009. After much success, she quit her full time office job in 2013 and focused on Chantilly Lace full time.

She is completely self-taught, via camera manuals, YouTube tutrials, google searches and tons of trial and error.

She doesn't outsource anything and edits everything by hand, and therefore never takes a day off (not kidding)... she works on average about 16 hours each day to keep this business running smoothly.

In 13 years time, Krista has found success in both the wedding industry and with her repetitive family clients, which has allowed her to expand her business. Now, Krista has a full time team of 8 and a large client volume.

In the last 3 years, she has changed her entire business and has opened a videography department, a coordination and planning department and bought a photo booth. With the help of her team, she's lead her business to 11 awards, covered over 500 weddings and has been seen in many major publications including HGTV, Apple, Home Depot and Minted.

When she isn't buried in wedding work, she is a wife to a husband she's completely obsessed with and a mom to 5 little boys, aged 6 to 13. She homeschools, completely resists teaching her children common core math and makes sure they can write in cursive.

Despite being busy, she works on the road and travels to upstate NY several times a year to visit family and takes her boys camping in the mountains every summer.

She writes novels, paints and loves karoke. She loves to mismatch colors, to read at night and to be spontaneous with her kids.

She's trustworthy and loves her clients just like they're family. Nothing about this job is just a job to her.
