Photos of our dreams!

When we first met Krissie it was like sitting and meeting with a new friend, we were immediately drawn to how comfortable she made us feel and her bubbly sweet personality. After an absolutely magical engagement shoot, including Krissie willingly running around downtown Raleigh and outfits changes in between, we knew we had chosen the absolute best photographer. Then came our wedding day, and Krissie was not only there as our photographer, but as a friend and advocate. She helped us design a wedding timeline in order to get the best photo lighting and even assisted with wardrobe malfunctions. She went above and beyond in every way. Even though we haven’t gotten all photos back yet (we just got married 10 days ago!), the sneak peaks have already brought tears to my eyes. Krissie captured moments even we missed. My husband and I will forever be grateful for Krissie and her ability to make us comfortable behind a camera, we can’t wait to have her capture all of our life’s moments to come!

She is amazing!

She was on top of everything and super supportive and great at her job. I did not give her a shoot list since I knew she was going to get the photos I wanted and I was right. I can't say good enough things. She gave us a gift of photos which captures everything and just she is amazing.

Krissie is the BEST!

We had the pleasure of working with Krisse for our engagement photos and our wedding photos! Not only is Krisse a very talented photographer, she's a wonderful person!

Krissie was recommended to us by our venue, Morris Peaceland Farm! If you haven't come across this beautiful, enchanting, and serene venue, check them out!

Krissie is the absolute best! We love the look of our photos. They are not heavily filtered and very natural. Krissie is very good at what she does. She has a friendly demeanor but was able to direct in a professional non-pushy way. She kept things moving and ensured that we weren't pulled away by guests. I really liked that she would randomly show images she captured and gave us positive reassurance and little tips when taking photos to ensure our photos were perfect.

Krissie definitely went above and beyond! She checked in with us multiple times throughout the evening, grabbed us drinks at one point, and was the bustle hero! My bridesmaids and I were struggling with my bustle and she realized something was wrong and came to help and saved the day by showing us how to properly bustle my dress!

Krissie is a true joy to work with. She's friendly, kind, genuine, organized, responsive, and a phenomenal photographer.
We highly recommend K Star's Photography for your event.

Best Wedding Photographer Ever!

We are so thankful that we had Krissie as our wedding photographer! Krissie is a pro and went the extra mile to make our special day perfect. Working with her was so easy! She has a great personality and knows how to keep things running smoothly and on schedule. She was super accommodating with our photo requests and thoughtful about group arrangements especially with elderly family members. Krissie also literally put out a small fire at our reception–she saved the day! We appreciate the hard work and passion she put into taking great photos of us and our family. Working with Krissie means you get a preview shortly after the event and later on get the curated collection that you have full rights to. The pictures turned out amazing and we are looking forward to keeping these photos around a long, long time!

Amazing Photographer!

Oh my gracious, where do I even start? Krissie is absolutely AH-MAZING! I’ve been fortunate enough to have her capture my engagement pictures, bridal portraits, wedding, AND our pregnancy announcement! Krissie is always quick with responses and is so easy to work with. For our wedding, she was literally the first person there (pretty much before my wedding party even all showed up for our hair!!) and was one of the last ones to leave! She is such a dedicated photographer and did such an amazing job of shooting our perfect day (as well as all of the other days she shot for us!) I can’t recommend Krissie enough to others, as she’s left me with so many priceless and beautiful memories.

A real life angel!!!

Where do I even start… having Krissie at our wedding was by far one of the easiest and best decisions we made. From the second we met her, her energy was contagious. She lights up a room and makes everyone feel welcomed. She is the ultimate hype girl and made us feel so comfortable and loved on our wedding day — and as the bride she made me feel so beautiful which made taking pictures even more fun. There is no doubt she is passionate about what she does and it shows in her pictures. She captured the most special moments of our day in a way that when I look at them I can feel the same love I felt that day. She was prepared, thorough, and SUCH a hard worker. My guests all complimented how wonderful she is and it honestly feels like we got a new friend by choosing her as our photographer. If you are looking for a photographer - for anything, no matter when or where - BOOK HER - you will not regret it. I would hire Krissie 100000% times over again, and I will recommend her to anyone I know. BEST PHOTOGRAPHER EVER!!! ❤️

Extravagant

There are really no words to describe Kstar Photography. Her services went above and beyond our expectations!

We were recommended to Kstar by our DJ, Elite DJ solutions at the Raleigh wedding expo. From the moment we met her we both looked at each other (Wife and I) and said we need to hire her now before she books up for our date. Her personality is just very upbeat and friendly.

From the engagement photos to the wedding , she is absolutely phenomenal! She is very quick and efficient. We had small groups in large groups getting photos people were everywhere and she rounded everybody up within the small timeframe we had in some instances during the wedding to make sure we got the photos we wanted. I would highly recommend Kstar photography for your event. She is absolutely the best we had nothing but compliments from every single one of our guests. Most of our family even follows her on social media now because they loved her as well. We are absolutely grateful to have come in contact with Kstar and delighted that she was our photographer for our event. We can’t wait to get our photos back! Thank you for everything

Krissie Star is a true STAR!

Krissie is an absolute gem! From the first time I met her at a bridal show, I knew I had to work with her. She went above and beyond for our engagement pics, drove to the beach and got sandy and wet to capture the perfect pics. She made me feel so comfortable and beautiful during my bridals and was a hit at our wedding. My bridesmaids loved her and how personable she is. I can't wait for many more opportunities to work together! I have received my wedding preview and am over the moon with my pictures! No other photographer could match her packages/pricing when I was searching for a wedding photographer.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
