Welcome!


You know the feeling - when you pick up a photograph and you are transported back to that day - it's an EXPERIENCE - the place, the people, the smiles, the joy, the feelings all come flooding back to you.  Photos aren't just a snapshot of a moment, they are memories - reliving the moments, places and special people we cherish.

It's so much more than a photo






I'm a portrait photographer, wife, believer and
mother to three amazing kids
Some of my favorite things include:
- Fresh baked cookies
- Palm trees
- A good quote
- Lazy rivers
-Good seats at concerts
-Any night I don't have to cook!

Testimonials

"Kristen is so easy-going!  Even with our large group, she was so patient and we never felt rushed.  She was amazing with the kids and captured their true smiles.  She had great suggestions for poses and positioning.  We would highly recommend Kristen over and over again!" - Jessica Witte

"Loved every picture Kristen took!  We had 7 adults and 4 kids under 8.  She was patient, personable and took a lot of pictures.  I would definitely recommend her." - Linda Bareham

"Kristen is such a true professional but above all else an extraordinary human being.  Thank you so much for making this photo shoot such a magical moment." - Maria Joaquin

"Kristen was one of the best photographers we've ever used.  I am a perfectionist and pictures typically stress me out because I spend so much time and thought on outfits, etc. and getting kids ready.  Kristen, was calm, patient, creative, sweet, kind and called my kids by name.  She fixed my hair (huge deal for me) and made sure every picture looked great.  I have never had every single picture be a favorite.  Kristen has talent and not only will we be using her again, I plan to spread the word.  5 stars from me."
- Rebecca Howard
