  My husband and I agreed that quality pictures was our top wedding priority. We spent hours comparing photographers' galleries but we kept going back to Kristin. She was so professional and responded to all of our texts/emails so quickly. She pretty much set the bar on what we looked for in terms of our relationship with all vendors. We didn't know it was possible to meet someone so genuine, talented, and fun. At first, we were nervous meeting because she said she wanted to make sure she was the right photographer for us and us the right clients for her and we didn't understand what she meant. But that first meeting went by so fast as we got to know each other and afterwards, we completely understood how important it is to find vendors you bond with and share your visions. She was so easy to talk to, addressing our concerns with timeline, what was important to photograph on our wedding day, and was great at tailoring a package to make sure she captured all our special moments. She gave great advice on things to consider for photos, what to wear and what colors would photograph well in our engagement photos. My husband and I don't feel like the most photogenic people but Kristin was great at giving us direction and helping us feel less awkward. We did a Disneyland engagement shoot and she had awesome ideas for photos that came out amazing and captured really sweet photos of us. She was flexible with the requests we added as we neared our wedding. We had a mini-shoot with my dog and she got so many cute pictures despite his chihuahua anxiety. We asked her to make a guest sign-in book and she created that beautifully and quickly in a cute story from both engagement shoots. Everything we've asked her to do, she delivered with so much more. We recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer! We were sad thinking we weren't going to see her again but recalled she also does maternity/family photos so we're excited to see her again as our family grows! Thanks Kristin!!

  I can not say enough. Kristin is MUST! Amazing! I'd get married all over again, but I am hoping this one sticks! I can't wait for the next exciting thing in our life, so we can work with her again!!!

  I had the great pleasure of meeting the Smetonas as a bridesmaid in a wedding that they photographed. They were so nice and my friends engagement and wedding photos were so beautiful! When it was my turn to look for a wedding photographer I immediately got Kristins info from my friend so I could hire her. We did our engagement photos a few months ago and it was SO MUCH FUN!!! It was more like hanging out with friendies vs having a photo shoot. She's incredibly talented at what she does and is warm, personable and professional. She got my engagement photos back to me within weeks and I love them so much.
  My husband and I are absolutely thrilled at the wonderful photos they took on our wedding day. Throughout the whole process they were very responsive, helpful and just a joy to work with.

  She ran the show( In a good way)! I didn't have to worry about a thing. She was on top of everything and got every shot I wanted and more. A lot of things didn't go according to plan but she kept me calm and did what she needed to do to make sure plan B was perfect. We had a wild bridal party but she did an amazing job keeping everyone on track and getting done what we needed to. We did our engagement photos with her so she had time to get a feel for how we are so our wedding was absolutely amazing and she was able to capture our personalities and the love we have for each other. The quality of our photos was amazing! I love her style and can't wait to use her when our family starts to grow. When watching our video from our videographer it was like she wasn't even there( in a good way). (Some photographers get in the way of the guest and the experience trying to get that "Perfect Shot" she didn't have to do any of that to get our perfect shots) I would highly recommend her to anyone! Yes you can find cheaper photographers but when you are spending so much on a wedding in general do not skimp on photography. The day goes by so fast and honestly you aren't really going to remember a whole lot so Photography and Videography are the only things that can help you remember the best day ever. You're paying for her quality and expertise and my big day wouldn't have gone as smoothly as it did without her. She is totally worth every penny!

  Kristin, Dustin, Ally and all staff of Smetona Photo are wonderful to work with!!!!! When my (now) husband and I began to meet with wedding photographers Kristin was the most sincere and honest. She encouraged us to consider what we wanted to have our photos focus on and sure enough our hopes of having family/friends-centered photos and her standards lined up wonderfully. We hired Smetona photo to do our engagement photos and that was a fun experience to start our wedding season on a great foot. Kristin was concise and creative which helped me relax throughout the process. Kristin was even willing to meet with me at the venue before our big day to scope out wedding photo spots to save time (more so probably to ease me if anything else as the bride hahaha!) She sent us a questionnaire to fill out and that gave us the time to plan all the details we could for photos. On the day of the team was a wonderful addition to our wedding day. Kristin and Ally advocated to get the photos that my husband and I requested before adding in extra requests from guests which was a huge relief! She coordinated well with our venue and DJ and the team was wonderful throughout. We just got some spoiler photos from our day and our family and friends can't stop taking about them. Choosing Smetona Photo was a great decision for us and we highly recommend them!

  I wish I could give Kristin and Dustin 10 stars! We had the absolute BEST experience working with them for our wedding. From the initial meeting with Kristin about our short timeline, how we would like to take our engagement photos asap (which ended up being at 6a that Saturday morning!), to creating our invites and everything leading up to the wedding, they were absolute professionals! Our families and entire wedding party commented on what a wonderful job they did, how they made it easy for everyone to be where they need to be when they needed to be there and how flexible they were with what we (the bride and groom) wanted on our wedding day. We got a preview of our wedding photos 2 days after the wedding - and the rest of the photos where a treasure!! Smetona photo is so fun, easy and wonderful to work with. I would recommend them to anyone in need of a photographer and hope to have plenty of occasions to call Kristin in the future!

  Kristin and Dustin provide phenomenal service. They are excellent photographers, worked hard to communicate with us about the ins and outs of our wedding day, and did a fantastic job of working to give us the best possible pictures. We could not have asked for better photographers for our wedding.

  Kristin and Dustin were a pleasure to work with and truly helped make our wedding day go smoothly. My husband and I are very happy with the engagement and wedding photos they took. Viewing the images they captured is like being transported right back to our wedding day.

  What can I say? I have known Kristin for many many years and have watched her wonderful photography skills get more and more enchanting. I told my mother many years ago (long before I ever met my husband) that if I could afford it I would fly Kristin back to KC to shoot my wedding. Low and behold there I was flying out to California to have the most amazing wedding i could have ever asked for. Kristin and Dustin captured our special day more than I ever imagined.My fiance and I eloped in Laguna Beach with just us Kristin and Dustin. They went above and beyond what was expected to make our day even more magical that it already was. Our photo's are truly breathtaking and I have been told several times by my friends, family and clients that they are the most beautiful wedding photos they have ever seen. These two maintain a level of professionalism that produces beautiful and high quality photos while at the same time creating a warm and familiar environment that feels like home. Thank you so much for capturing our memories and being apart of our special day.

  First off, Kristen and Dustin are awesome! Not only are they unbelievably talented, they are genuine and kind people who made us feel so comfortable and made sure we were having fun!

Not only did they capture incredible pictures of our families and us, they took beautiful photos of the venue, ceremony, and overall décor. Thank you Kristen and Dustin for working so hard on our day to take the most beautiful pictures. You both rock!! Love, Kevin and Ali

  Kristin and Dustin are fabulous! For our engagement photos, my fiance really wanted ninjas. They both got on board with the thought of ninjas and created a photo essay about ninjas attacking us and how we fought them off and won! It was definitely the highlight of the photos during the engagement session. They just shot our wedding photos and even though I haven't seen the final product yet, I'm sure they'll be fabulous! Thank you so much Kristin and Dustin!!!

  Just had my boudoir session with Kristin on Friday and I am still in absolute awe of her professionalism. I could never have imagined that I would take boudoir pictures, let alone feel so incredibly comfortable doing it! I knew it was a must-have for my husband-to-be, so I bit the bullet and went for it. She knew all the right poses for my body type and I cannot believe how good the couple samples she showed me look like! I would never recommend anyone else in not only the Southern California area, but seriously THE WORLD! I'm not joking; Kristin is the real deal! Standing around in barely-there duds is NEVER my thing, but by the end of it, I was throwing my bra off and across the room for the "naked under the sheets" look. Sure the glass of champagne she served was great liquid courage, but it was her demeanor, encouragement and personality that made me so comfortable doing this! After we get married, I can't wait to schedule a maternity shoot!

  Kristin & Dustin did a great job telling the story of our day. Being photographers ourselves, picking someone to shoot our wedding was not easy, but from the first meeting they had us feeling comfortable, confident and welcomed. We truly treasure the images we got, as our day went by so fast and the images let us relive it and even see things we missed! Every time I look back at our images I find a new favorite or see an image I missed the first 100 times I viewed them ;). The quality of prints are amazing too, the canvases we have had printed are amazing and the colors are so rich. They look amazing hanging on our walls. It is such a blessing to be able to decorate our home with gorgeous images. The only issue was picking the images we wanted to print! (too many favorites). Kristin & Dustin worked so hard on our day and we are thankful for what they captured!! <3 <3 MR & Mrs Favello

  I did a boudoir session with Kristin and was SO impressed with the results. I thought the session was going to be awkward (being in your underwear in front of a stranger is a little unusual), but Kristin was so professional and easy to work with! She had great attention to detail, was super friendly, and the images were beautiful. I can't wait to share the photos with my fiancé! Overall great experience!

  Dustin and Kristin were more than wedding photographers for us, they were friends! This gifted team led Brian and I through the entire wedding season, from making us feel special and unique during the engagement shoot to carefully recommending the perfect spot to capture our wedding portraits to EVERYTHING in between. Smetona Photo gave us our special day in photo form, never missing a candid shot or an important family photo. Their skill ranged from wedding photography to food photography to architectural photography, making our wedding look like a grand and original masterpiece. We are so thankful for their servant's hearts as well, recognizing the specific needs and meeting them with care. We love you, Dustin and Kristin! -Brian and Kelsey Albright

  Smetona Photo is AMAZING!!!! I went to school with Dustin and Kristin so I already had an idea of what wonderful people they are but I had no idea how blown away I was going to be while working with them. :) My husband does not like having his picture taken and does not smile easily but Dustin and Kristin's sense of humor made the process fun and I got a lot of smiles!!! I absolutely LOVE looking at our wedding photos - the lighting, quality, style - everything! I could not have imagined better photos! I think they made our wedding look better in photo than it did in person!! :) Thank you Smetonas!!!!

  We were so delighted with every single part of the photography service we received from Smetona photo. They are world class photographers. They excel in their craft and have wonderful personalities. They even travelled to Ireland to shoot our wedding. If you are looking for professional, artistic, easing going photographers, look no further!

  The Smetona's were so much more than we could have hoped for! Our day went smoothly thanks to them, and our photos are gorgeous! Couldn't have done it without them!

  I was so thrilled to have gotten the chance to do this photo-shoot with Kristin! She is certainly fantastic in what she does. She helped make me feel comfortable, as you can tell with my photos, after the first couple I began to take it with much ease. She helped me laugh and completely enjoy myself, all in which I was doubtful of, however, Kristin proved me very wrong! It was an incredible experience & I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. Oh and not to mention the pictures turned out magnificent- it's hard to believe that was me!

  The Smetonas are so much fun! They are skilled photographers that are professional in their work but also so personable and warm. We love that they resonated with our vision of capturing the relationships and spirit of celebration among our guests during our day and were very thorough in understanding the aesthetic we were going for. We felt that we could trust them to take pictures of the moments that would be significant to us, and they certainly met our expectations and then some! They made everyone feel at ease and even learned to count to three in Chinese to make sure all of our relatives were looking their best during family photos! They are a delight to work with and have given us the gift of beautiful memories of our wedding day. We love the Smetonas!
