Karissa is absolutely amazing! We are so in love with every photo that she captured of our engagement and wedding, and we have received so many compliments from our family and friends! Karissa went above and beyond to ensure that we felt comfortable and answered every question that we had. She even traveled across the state to take our engagement photos for us! On the day of our wedding, she was careful to ensure that every photo request we had was captured. We also had a Catholic wedding ceremony at a church that had rather dark lighting. I was nervous that photos may not turn out very well (flash was not allowed), but Karissa was able to make all the church photos look vibrant and bright! We received first look photos the day after our wedding and our whole wedding album within 4 weeks! We are so happy that we were able to work with Karissa and would highly recommend her to anyone!

I am so thankful I found Karissa as my wedding photographer!!! We are so THRILLED with how our pictures turned out (we received our sneak peak less than 48 hours after the wedding!) and I would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect photographer for their special day!
As a person who is incredibly shy in front of a camera, I was stressed about how awkward I would be in front of the camera or how forced the posing would feel, but Karissa made us feel at ease from the very first moment we met and I was able to be fully present in my husband’s company the entire time. She does an amazing job of balancing the “posed” pictures (which came out incredible) and candid shots (my husband’s first look picture has us both smiling ear to ear).
In the days leading up to our wedding, she worked closely with us to develop our day-of timeline so that we would be able to have each of the events of the day occur in a schedule that made sense and so that we could sneak out during dinner to get those magical golden hour photos taken. She was a delight and we are so thankful for her keen eye and wedding vision.

Not only was Karissa a friendly and phenomenal communicator, she was also truly passionate about making our wedding photos as great as they possibly could be!

Her professionalism shined throughout the entire process from booking her, to engagement photos, to the big day itself. Karissa is very talented and its obvious that she has a true vision behind every shot that she takes. She showed up early to scout our wedding location and she walked us through everything that she was thinking. She gave us so much confidence that it was like a weight lifted off our shoulders during a time when we were stressed about all the other planning involved.

For both the engagement and wedding photos, she always delivered an amazing preview set of photos the next day. Looking back on everything, having Karissa do our wedding photos may be the best decision that we made. We couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out and we would recommend her again and again!

Karissa is not only a sweet, personable and thoughtful person but also a amazing photographer! We had SO much fun with her on our adventure engagement photo photo and then she was perfect to be with us on our wedding day. She always answered emails and questions promptly. She made a detailed day of wedding timeline-and made sure everything happened perfectly! She delivered a sneak preview of 37 photos at 1pm- THE DAY AFTER THE WEDDING!! I was so happy and shocked. She is amazing and don’t even consider going with anyone else:)

Of the things we were picky about when planning our wedding, the photographer was absolutely number one! My husband and I were really stubborn about the importance of having beautiful photos of our wedding, and it showed in how long it took us to find a photographer. But I cannot stress enough how worth the search Karissa was. The photos she took for our engagement shoot and wedding blow me away every time I look at them. They are just SO BEAUTIFUL. And Karissa is so amazing, she takes everything in stride and really keeps everything so organized and together. Our day of schedule got very cramped in places and she kept us on track. I think she's a bit of a magician personally, because we were running 20 minutes late for family portraits, and we still ended on time--amazing!

Her artistic style was also exactly what we wanted, my husband and I knew we wanted a lot of candid shots of all of our favorite people enjoying themselves at our wedding. Not to mention the many moments during the day when we would look at each other and just get so excited that we had finally done it! And Karissa knocked it out of the park, we have so many photos of beloved moments that bring back such wonderful memories.

We definitely will spend many moments in the future crying over the memories, because the photos just take us back immediately! I can't wait until my husband and I have another big life event to celebrate, because you better believe we'll be reaching out to Karissa again so she can work her magic some more.

We had the great honor of having Karissa Roe Photography shoot our wedding. And we couldn’t be more overjoyed with the way our pictures turned out! Karissa created for us a remarkable view into our wedding day through the magic of her camera lens. In addition to the beautifully crafted and posed shots she got, there are so many candid moments as well. Karissa has the talent to freeze moments of time in her pictures; moments of time that we had no idea she captured. Her stealth is just one of her incredible photographer traits!
We originally booked with a photographer who offered a deal that was too good to be true; and it was. After our engagement shoot with our original photographer, we were underwhelmed with the pictures and her lack of preparation. Our friends’ had Karissa Roe as their wedding photographer, and we knew she was amazing. We called her two days after our disappointing engagement shoot, and thankfully she was still available for our wedding date! I can’t put into words how much of a relief it was having Karissa booked. We were ecstatic! We already loved her work from our friends’ wedding, so we knew we were in great hands. Her photography packages are worth every penny. We’re so thankful we were able to book with Karissa. She takes the time to prepare and makes you feel like the top priority.
Our engagement shoot pictures blew us away. Her ability to frame shots is incredible. On this day it was raining, but we were actually happy about that. We had seen the things she’s able to do with rain! There are so many beautiful images from that day and we’re so grateful to have our engagement bliss forever saved.
There is a lot that goes into planning a wedding (as most everyone knows) and it’s a great feeling not having to worry at all about the photography. Karissa is on top of everything. Leading up to the wedding she checks-in at different points to gather information so there aren’t any questions on the actual day. She is very organized and her magazine was a huge help for us when we were determining our wedding day timeline.
I truly cannot speak enough good things about Karissa. Her talent, professionalism, patience, kindness, work ethic, and passion are amazing. Not to mention her awesome leadership; we had a bridal party of 22 and she expertly directed everyone. She has the ability to make us feel at ease in front of the camera and her constant words of praise make you feel so confident. I have no idea how Karissa and her 2nd photographer, Nadia (who was also amazing!), were able to get so many different angles and shots. There are a wide variety of pictures in our portfolio. I’ve gone through our album at least 20 times now, and I fall more in love with these priceless pictures each time.
It’s hard to put to words just how much we appreciate Karissa. We’ll always treasure our beautiful pictures and the memories they remind us of. We enthusiastically, wholeheartedly recommend Karissa Roe Photography to anyone looking for an experienced, creative, and passionate photographer. Thank you, Karissa, for putting so much time and effort into our special day. You have given us the greatest wedding gift.

Karissa was fantastic to work with!

She made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process, from an initial phone conversation to see if we would be a good fit, to the day of the wedding.

We aren’t really a “photogenic” couple or people that enjoy being photographed, so we were a little worried at the thought of spending hours taking photos. This worry turned out to be unfounded because Karissa made us feel very comfortable with skillful direction and we ended up with beautiful natural-looking photos that we are super happy with!

A photographer is also a significant part of your wedding day, and Karissa was such a great person to have as part of ours. She’s very warm, genuine, and has an adventurous spirit! Some of our photos required hiking down a steep trail and climbing on slippery rocks and Karissa was totally game!

We can’t say enough about how helpful Karissa was organizing last details of our ceremony and managing people for the group photos to stay within our timeline. She has mastered the balance of getting things done efficiently while being thoughtful and artistic. Everyone in our family loved her and commented on how great she was as well.

Thank you so much Karissa! We are so grateful for the beautiful memories that you captured for us.

Karissa is absolutely outstanding and amazing! She surpassed all of our highest expectations and hopes and we feel so incredibly lucky to have found her as our wedding photographer. She is incredibly down to earth, easy, flexible, always professional, well organized, responsive and made our wedding photography flow so naturally and smooth that it only added to the charm of the day. And on top of that, the pictures came out ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! She has a gift for capturing the moments in such a magical way. We do not hesitate to give her our highest recommendation possible. Karissa is incredible!

Karissa was absolutely amazing. The engagement shoot we did with her was a wonderful way to get to know her and get an idea of how we would be doing the photos for the wedding. Both of us are uncomfortable in front of a camera, but her joy and enthusiasm was infectious and we had a blast. She also understands the personal touches of the day as she made sure to ask what special items or moments she should be sure to capture. When the photos were delivered, we were blown away with the quality and the quantity. The portraits and detail shots are not only beautiful, but the candid shots of friends and family during the wedding will be equally precious. The magic of the day was truly captured. I cannot recommend Karissa highly enough.

Karissa photographed our engagement and wedding and we couldn’t be happier! She is incredibly talented and her work is breath taking. She’s professional, extremely responsive and she made us feel comfortable during both photo shoots. She also made sure she understood what we wanted and that she covered everything and more on the wedding day. I never had to worry about a thing with her.

She did an amazing job getting not only staged photos at our wedding but candid shots we will cherish forever. She got parts of the wedding we weren’t able to see ourselves and that made the day that much more special. I would recommend her to anyone!
