About

Photography by Kristy Burnett is a wedding photography company based out of Herrin, Illinois, and can travel all over the United States. Owner Kristy purchased her first SLR film camera at age 25 while scrapbooking photos of her kids. She fell in love with the process of documenting life's candid moments and transforming them into beautiful, timeless images. Her next purchase was a digital SLR, followed by many more investments which she spent over 18 years using to craft all styles of pictures. She employs a storytelling approach to document weddings and special events and thrives under the pressure of a busy and fast-paced environment. It means a lot to her to partake in your journey, and she looks forward to capturing your special day.

Services Offered

Photography by Kristy Burnett covers everything from proposals and engagements to ceremonies and receptions, as well as boudoir, portrait, and trash-the-dress sessions. To get the ball rolling, she invites you to reach out for a friendly consultation to discuss the vision you have in mind. She offers a range of packages, all of which include unlimited high-resolution, fully-edited photos suitable for printing. Access to these images is provided via an online app but can also be made available on a USB flash drive. Additional services include albums, canvas, metals, save-the-dates, thank-you cards, and more.

Wonderful Experience!

Kristy is just wonderful to work with! She is very kind and personable, and makes you feel at ease immediately. She is open to your ideas and also has many great ideas for shots you wouldn't think of on your own. She is also affordable! We would not have been able to afford photos without her. Thank you so much!

Very fun to work with

I would recommend her for any wedding. My daughter had a horse drawn carriage that stopped at a couple stops around town before getting to reception. Kristy went above and beyond to record and take pictures of the kids around town. Simply beautiful.

Carlton Wedding

Kristy is absolutely amazing.. she not only takes great photos, she is dedicated and you can tell she loves it. This is now my third session with her and I couldn’t think of anyone better to shot my wedding. She was there with us all day from the girls getting ready at the hotel, the guys at the place if ceremony waiting on women 😉 ceremony pictures and reception. And I plan to have many more shoots with her. P.s she’s also the baby whisper, got the fussy one year old to sleep while continuing to take pictures. Again, she’s amazing!

Kristy is #1

Kristy Burnett photography is Southern Illinois only photography studio. Weather inside or outdoors, kristy put every ounce of energy and enthusiasm into every shot. My family has had the pleasure of using here 2 times in less than 2 months for professional pictures. Pricing is great. Even if your on a budget she will work with you to make your session the best. She shoots 100s of pictures to capture that perfect pose,position, or reaction. Kristy hands down has my families buisness.
