She made our special day as easy as possible!

Krystal is an absolute pro. She is responsive, creative, and so talented. For anyone who is self conscious or shy, she has a way of lighting a spark in your eyes for photos.

The BEST photographer!!

Krystal was absolutely amazing to work with for our engagement and wedding photos! She was extremely professional and knew when and where to take all of our photos to get the best results. Her editing style is exactly what we were looking for and she provided a sneak peek within a week of our wedding! Her photos are STUNNING and she has the best personality! She was so sweet and kind and we loved having her apart of our big day! We will be using her for all of life's milestones moving forward! We would recommend her to everyone!!

More than a 5 star review!

Krystal is hands down the best photographer in the Chicagoland area! You need to hire her for your wedding. She was so professional, fun, easy going, and supportive. The forecast did not look great for our wedding day and Krystal texted me the day before to assure it would all be okay, made sure we still got the best pictures possible and it all felt seamless. She sent me a few pictures the NIGHT of the wedding and sent a stunning preview a few days later- the pictures are timeless and beautiful. There are truly no words to describe how amazing she is and her work is!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Best decision for our wedding!

I was so nervous I wouldn’t find a photographer for our holiday wedding. Krystal was recommended to us by another photographer and INSTANTLY fell in love with her style. I was unbelievably excited when she said she could shoot our NYE wedding. She was the best decision we made for our wedding!! Our photos are beyond perfect, above any and all expectations. Beyond just her work, Krystal is an amazing person as well! She was fun and easy to work with and extremely attentive!

Amazing!

Krystal was absolutely amazing when it came to everything about our October wedding! She endured the coldest day of the year for snow engagement pictures, me changing our venue, another engagement session in the summer at our venue and was absolutely amazing through it all!! Krystal is so personable, fun, and really cares about you and wants to make sure you are enjoying your day all while capturing the best moments and everything in between! Pretty sure she poured me a glass of champagne at one point while getting ready and then the whole bottle later for the most fun bridesmaids champagne pictures!! There is so much I could say but I truly couldn’t have imagined anyone else as our photographer for our day and we are so happy with all of our pictures and to have gotten to know Krystal ❤️

Personal & Comfortable

Krystal did everything she could to make sure the day was what WE wanted. We felt like she made sure we were so comfortable with her beforehand so that when the day came it was so easy! She takes GREAT quality pictures. We were so in love with everything. From the engagement sessions to the day of the wedding, we could not have been felt more at home w/ Krystal! 11/10

Better than I had dreamed!

I originally wrote a review after our engagement photos were done but before the wedding, and I want to update things because now I know even more now how AMAZING Krystal is! The engagement photo session was so fun and Krystal put us both at ease and made us so much more comfortable in front of the camera. She has the type of personality that makes you feel so at ease around her, like you’ve known her for a long time. The wedding photos were even better than I expected! Our ceremony ran longer than planned and she put as at ease when she took control and knocked out so many beautiful photos so efficiently. We were all so amazed! And then the photos came in and we were blown away. I can’t explain how beautiful they are — gorgeous, light, and natural. And there are so many! We ended up purchasing an album through her as well. We learned through our attempt to design an album for our parents that designing is much more difficult than we thought, and we wanted one designed by someone with a good eye for it. When we got our (hand-delivered!) album from Krystal, we were again completely blown away. Her work is breathtaking and something we will treasure forever. Krystal being our photographer is one of THE best decisions we ever made for our wedding.

Amazing and so fun!

Krystal shot my wedding last year and I’m so incredibly grateful! She made sure my husband and I were calm and having fun. She also made sure that we got all the shots we wanted, even though our schedule was so tight. She was so fun to work with and the pictures we got were absolutely beautiful!

Krystal is the bomb.com. Very thorough when it comes to what style you want. She has this awesome packet for you to fill out so she doesn’t miss a thing when it comes to the big day! We will be using her again! 20/10 would recommend!
