Crystal does amazing things with shadow and light and will do whatever she needs to get the photo she's after. Your pictures will look like something out of a magazine when she's done. She's extremely professional and easy to be around. I'm looking forward to getting the opportunity to work with her again.

Crystal was awesome! She made me feel so comfortable and was amazing at what she does and I couldn't have asked for better photos. She is very professional but made me feel like I was just hanging out with a friend during the whole shoot. I cannot wait to give them to my fiancé on our wedding day.

Crystal is AMAZING! She did our engagement and wedding photos and they turned out even better than I had dreamed. the pictures weren't overly posed, but captured the moments perfectly. I returned to her for boudoir photos and was even more impressed at how she makes you feel so confident and beautiful. I would highly recommend Crystal as your photographer.

When I got engaged three years ago, the first thing I told my future husband was that my biggest priority for our wedding was hiring Crystal Madsen. We got married last August, and Crystal was well worth the wait. She captured every moment, every person, every detail exactly how I imagined. People always tell me not to get my hopes up because I'll be disappointed, and Crystal went above and beyond my highest hopes. She managed to capture everyone's personalities, including our children, which means more to me than I could ever express. Crystal not only pays attention to what's important to her clients, but she listens, she absorbs. This shines through in her photos. How personalized her senior shoots are, the small details of the bride, the priceless moments that everyone forgets about, but mean the world when you see them captured the way Crystal is able to. She is wonderful in every way.

Crystal goes above and beyond as a photographer. She was able to capture my personality in every shot. I used several photos for marketing and business sites. The photos are clean, crisp and exceeded my expectations entirely. She is so fun to work with and is willing to try know things as well. I would highly recommend her!!!

Crystal is seriously amazing. She took two un-photogenic, awkward nerds and worked her magic to produce some beautiful engagement photos for us. Having the best photographer we could afford was my number one priority for our wedding and while researching photographers in the Spokane area, her work really jumped out at me. I love her dramatic, artistic style and her photos are constantly wowing me. She takes the kind of pictures that you can hang in your home as art and want to show off to everyone you know. She's also really personable and will make you feel comfortable and enjoy yourself, even if you have NO idea what you are doing. Based on the engagement photos she took for us, I trust her completely with our upcoming wedding!

Crystal was AMAZING!! She is so efficient and had control of the entire 250 people at the wedding without them having any idea she was even capturing pictures. She is fun to work with, extremely communicative, easy to get ahold of, creative, and light hearted. We had so much fun with her. My husband and I never had to try to create poses ourselves, she would pose us until we got the perfect shot. All we had to do was show up!! I highly recommend Crystal for any event. If I could have given her 6 stars I would have!! Thank you Crystal!!!

I wish I could give more than 5/5 stars for Crystal Madsen Photography! She and her assistant were such a blast to work with for my engagement pictures as well as on my wedding day. Even though the theme of my wedding was super unique and different, she captured the most breath taking photos that completely sum up the theme of our wedding perfectly! Every time we had a meeting or corresponded via email I felt that all of my ideas and requested for the wedding photography was not only heard but that Crystal truly understood and valued my ideas.

Crystal is always cheery, and fun. If she ain't laughing and having a good time she's probably not Crystal. But if you're lucky enough to know her, then you know what I am talking about. Crystal is a great photographer who invests her time and talent into creating stunning images for her clients, she is an all around great person. I highly recommend Crystal!
