About

Kirsten's goal for your wedding is to follow your flow and capture all the beautiful little moments (like when your partner reads the letter you wrote them or when the flower girl runs back up the aisle in confusion) along with all the unforgettable big ones (your first look, first kiss, first dance--lots of firsts!!). However, there are times when she'll offer a little creative direction, like using that unique ray of light or window reflection to bring a WOW feel to an image.

So if candid moments blended with artistic portraits are how you want to remember your day, shoot her an email and start a conversation about your special day!

Great Wedding Photographer!

Kirsten was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer! Her package came with a free pre-wedding engagement shoot, in which she was able to beautifully capture pictures at one of our favorite date night spots and she was very flexible as our shoot got rescheduled multiple times. On the wedding day, she came to the venue early and captured great pictures of us arriving for the wedding day. Her and her assistant were kind, professional, and creative as they captured all the different details of our wedding day. They even managed over 20 large group photos that we requested and got them done with plenty of time to spare during cocktail hour! We received many compliments from guests and our wedding party about how great Kirsten was to work with and the whole gallery came out gorgeous. We can't recommend Kirsten enough for your wedding day!

Gorgeous wedding photos, awesome person to work with

Kirsten was a dream to work with. She ticks all the boxes from a professionalism standpoint (responsive, reasonable/transparent pricing, organized), but her unique style and her ability to make everyone feel relaxed in front of the camera set her apart. My husband and I knew we wanted fewer posed photos and more candid, documentary-style images. Kirsten delivered - she captured all the laughter, tears, friendship, love, dancefloor antics, and tender moments. My mom said it best: "I'm blown away by the wedding [photos]. She has perfectly captured the essence of your wedding - the joy, the love, the fun - it's amazing."

Lovely Photos

We were very pleased to have Kirsten be the photographer for our wedding reception. She was very professional and friendly throughout the entire process. She gave good direction to my and my husband to help us get the best posing for photos. It did not feel posed or awkward because her ideas make things more natural. I think she is great for candid shots and uses her creativity to get unique angles.

Would highly recommend

We used Kirsten for our wedding and we could not be happier with our experience.
She was outrageously generous with her time and resources, including giving us a personalized drive and extra printed photos, a free engagement photo session, and more. When she happened to arrive (less than 30-45 minutes) late the day of, she gave us a photo book at no cost, which just shows how giving and magnanimous she is.
Her shots are incredibly high quality, and she does a great job mixing the clients' wishes with her own artistic experience. She is both very accommodating and very professional. We appreciated her approach to focusing on candids, combined with her organization and desire to collect information ahead of time. She was a highlight of our wedding planning experience, and we would recommend her to others.

She captured the vibe of our wedding perfectly. High recommend!

Definitely choose Kirsten as your wedding photographer!

Kirsten is an AMAZING wedding photographer. She is friendly, easy going, and makes the couple feel great in every setting. She is very thorough in her planning, and is very easy to communicate with either through text, call or email. Kirsten makes sure that the couple's interests and wishes are at the heart of her decisions when it comes to all of the photographs she takes. She does such a great job at putting everyone at ease that she easily blends into the background and captures the most amazing moments of your special day that are authentic and true to each couple. I highly recommend Kirsten for any of your photography needs when it comes to your wedding day!

Best vendor at our wedding! AMAZING!

I could never say enough good things about Kirsten! Her work is incredible, she is so kind and professional. From the first email to the last, she was so helpful, transparent, kind, and flexible. My now husband and I are very camera shy and it wasn’t a problem at all for Kirsten, she found a way to bring out our best! Feels like we won the lottery having Kristen capture our day! Couldn’t love the photos any more if I tried!

Magical Memories Captured by a Magical Photographer

When it came to working with Kirsten, she exceeded our expectations. To start, Kirsten was very communicative and detailed when it came to sharing her photography style, her offerings, her timelines, etc. to ensure that we'd be a match when it came to our wedding vision. The photos she shared of her work was exactly what we were looking for!

At first we weren't sure that we wanted to do an engagement shoot, as we didn't think that it was for us, but Kirsten convinced us to do one to help us get comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day and get to know each other. We are beyond grateful and so happy that she convinced us because not only did we feel so much more comfortable on our wedding day with a camera, but we were able to capture such beautiful moments together, including our dog (who wasn't going to be at the wedding). BONUS: Kirsten is AWESOME. She makes you laugh and has such a positive, comforting, and fun energy that's exactly what you want in a photographer.

Kirsten couldn't have been more amazing on our wedding day (and her assistant as well!). She ensured we got all the photo shots we really wanted but also seamlessly blended into the day to capture the joy and fun of our wedding and our guests. As Kirsten was about to leave, she noticed that our glow sticks were about to come out so she stayed a little bit longer to ensure that a few shots were taken with those, which just showed how she really cares about capturing everything.

Overall, Kirsten, her team, her stunning photos with rich colors that shows the depths and personalities of her couples...I couldn't have asked for anyone better to match our styles and capture the biggest day of our lives! We are so grateful for her and so happy to have her photos to cherish for the rest of our lives :)

Creative, fun, documentary style - we love Kirsten!

It can be hard to find a photographer sometimes right? It seems like there are so many options out there... how do you choose? I'll help make it easier -- you choose Kirsten!

Our first experience working with Kirsten for our engagement photos was a blast. I had a few ideas for a downtown photoshoot... well, she far exceeded expectations with those and also took unplanned shots on a whim that ended up being some of our favorites. We had fun chatting after the session and left with great memories and feeling so happy we chose her for our wedding!

We just recently got our wedding photos back as well and are in love! Everything from the lighting to the moments Kirsten and her second shooter took really captures the feeling of the day. She has a talent for capturing real emotions with her style of photography. You can tell she has an eye for what she's doing. She is genuinely having fun being creative behind the camera.

Kirsten adds a fun and creative flair to everything she does -- from email interactions to photographing beautiful candid moments. She is friendly & personable, easy to work with, and makes the process of taking pictures feel fun. Really can't recommend her enough. If you're trying to make a decision, relax and just choose Kirsten -- you're in good hands!

Best Wedding Decision We Made!

Before I even got engaged I knew I wanted Kirsten to be our wedding photographer. I was lucky enough to have met Kirsten when she was the photographer for my best friend's wedding a few years ago. She made that day so easy and fun for the wedding party when it came to taking photos, and also kept everyone organized and on schedule. Not only was she awesome to hang out with all day, her photos of my friends wedding were absolutely stunning. So naturally, she was the first vendor we reached out to once we booked our date.

Kirsten was so flexible and easy to work with leading up to our wedding (we had a couple postponements #covidbride). She helped establish a timeline for the day and was easy to get a hold of when we had questions or needed to get in touch.

Both our engagement shoot and wedding day were a blast! She helped us feel at ease in front of the camera and came up with some really creative ideas for shots on the fly which we were grateful for since our locations were new to all of us.

I also can't stress enough how much I would recommend to couples to find someone you feel comfortable being up close and personal with for a whole day. Kirsten made us feel like we were hanging out with an old friend who had known us forever, which made capturing all the sweet, fun, and touching moments feel easy and natural.

When she shared our photos of the day, I was beyond thrilled with how they turned out. Everything I hoped would be captured was and much more! Some people say only video can really capture the raw emotions of the day, but the photos Kirsten took accomplished this too.

So, if you made it all the way to the end of this, don't waste anymore time and book Kirsten asap!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
