Why Our Clients Trust Us
"Kristen and Toby were incredible. We prioritized booking someone who could capture our diverse bridal party, be inclusive in their language, and capture a religious ceremony. They were perfect. The photos are incredible and everyone looks amazing. Kristen met with us and listened to our vision for capturing our day. I was a little self conscious about not wanting "getting ready" pictures and not wanting my hair and makeup done professionally. Kristen validated this and I love how I look in the photos. If you are a no/low makeup bride and nervous about how the photos will look, you will look amazing in Kristen's photos. Kristen was so organized and made sure to get the shots we asked for! Our day was very community and family oriented and it came through in the pictures. They captured our loved ones being themselves. We felt so loved at our wedding and we feel that love from our community when looking at the photos."
