I absolutely made the best choice to go with Kristin Grinnell Photography for my wedding! I went with her associate package because I had a smaller wedding and only needed about 3 hours of photography and from the beginning they were responsive to my needs and TOTALLY willing to work with what we wanted and with our budget for our big day! We worked with Shannon Miller and Viana on our wedding day and everyone loved them! They were so fun and we all had a blast taking pictures, it was just so comfortable working with them. Although Kristin wasn't with us on the wedding day taking pictures she was always 100% professional with responding to my many emails and even taking the time to retouch all my images! And we got A LOT of images! They all look like they belong in magazines! Everyone needs to work with Kristin Grinnell for quality photography and that sense of comfort that your images will be SPECTACULAR! I honestly cannot say enough about them, they were a pleasure to work with and recommend them to EVERYONE!

Kristen was just a delight to have come into our lives. She provided us with beautiful pictures, an amazing engagement session, and a great care for our individuality! Her pictures are beautiful, elegant, and modern. She has a great eye for the details. She is truly a delight to work with and feels just like a friend or family member to us! I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER to anyone looking for a great wedding photographer at a great price.
