Cristen was the best! Super sweet, professional, and engaging! She knew how to capture such a special day for us. Would highly recommend without a doubt!
Cristen was fantastic! She is so sweet and great to work with. She was very prompt and helpful with her responses to my emails while planning and even helped recommend some venues when we were still planning everything. She was very quick and had wedding sneak peek photos done by the next morning and the rest of them done by the end of the week. I highly recommend her services!
Cristen did an absolute phenomenal job capturing our big day. I cannot say enough good things. She was super sweet made us feel comfortable and really captured our moments perfectly. I would definitely recommend her. We were happy to have her apart of our big day.
Had an amazing experience and loved the quality of her work. Cristen was great to work with and was very fast getting our pictures back. Could not have asked or found a better photographer
Cristen captured the wedding photos of our dreams! She was so wonderful to work with, very kind and professional. The quality of her work is amazing and had all of our photos back early which was the sweetest surprise! We couldn’t be happier with our choice to go with Autumn Olive Photography and wouldn’t go with anyone else for our future photo shoots, Thank you for everything, Cristen!
Cristen was absolutely amazing. From her photography to her personality, we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. If you want a photographer to get the best pictures, in the purest moments, Cristen is the right person for the job!!

Cristen did not skip a beat when capturing our perfect day! Extremely easy to communicate with and understood exactly what we wanted. The pictures she took are absolutely perfect and we will have these photos to cherish the rest of our days! 10/10 recommend if you are looking for a photographer on your special day or event!
There is so much I could say! Cristen is the sweetest, most professional person/photographer. She took my vision and captured it in every photo. She made sure to grab every shot i wanted and then some! My wedding was a different direction than most, and her energy just added to the beauty of the day! Our wedding pictures are stunning, and I truly get to relive the moment just by looking at them. I looked at many photographer before she personally reached out to me, and so thankful she did. If you need a photographer, Autumn Olive Photography, should be your pick! Looking forward to working with her again!

I recommend Autumn Olive Photography! She is very professional and her work is great! Highly recommend!
Cristen was so wonderful to work with. We had never visited our venue before the day and she took the lead in the best way. She put us at ease and captured the memories we cared most about.
Everything about wedding planning stressed me out EXCEPT my choice of photographer! Cristen made us feel so comfortable and curated amazing photographs! The engagement photo session with our package was a bonus I wasn't expecting to love, but the nature-inspired shots are some of my favorites. The added session also allowed us to meet and get to know Cristen before the wedding. We planned our Lake Lure wedding for over a year and a half, and when Hurricane Helene ravaged the area, Cristen happily pivoted with us and traveled to Charlotte to document our special day. I felt so grateful to have someone I trusted and someone so talented with us even though her community was suffering. I can't recommend Cristen enough, and I am so thankful for her spirit, her expertise, and her professionalism. You will not be disappointed!!!
Amazing in every way, we couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Cristen really was a huge highlight of our special day ✨️🥰💖
Cristen was absolutely wonderful to work with! Communicating before was an absolute breeze and then wedding day she has a demeanor that makes you feel special and comfortable! Also her photos are beautiful and perfect, ones I will cherish forever!
We had a great experience with Cristen! My partner and I had never had photos taken before and Cristen did a great job of making us comfortable and guiding us throughout. We didn’t have guests at our elopement so it was nice to have someone like Cristen who was clearly excited for us despite starting the evening as strangers. We got our photos back very quickly and we’re so happy with them!
Cristen was amazing. She was very professional and detail oriented. She was as excited as we were to capture the moment.
Cristen was absolutely wonderful to work with! She went above and beyond our expectations! We not only have our beautiful wedding portraits and first looks; we also have so many wonderful candid pictures of family and friends from the wedding and the reception. We cannot thank Cristen enough for all the wonderful moments she had captured at our wedding ,rehearsal and reception. We would recommend her to anyone who is getting married!
Working with Cristen was absolutely wonderful. Her photos of our wedding turned out fantastic and so beautiful. She is so personable and very easy to work with for our wedding. With my plate full as the bride, I didn't have to do any thinking for the photo shoot. She knew exactly where to take the photos, where to pose us in the photo and even directed us on how to pose, look and SMILE like we were having the best day of our life. Highly Recommend.
Cristen is the sweetest person. She made my bridal party, my husband and I feel very at ease the day of our wedding. She truly has an eye for pictures and you can tell that by the way that she looks at her canvas and makes changes as needed. She is a dream to work with and gets your pictures back to you insanely fast. My husband and I were on our honeymoon when we got to look through our pictures. Thank you for a wonderful experience and thank you for capturing our day in such a beautiful way.
Cristen was absolutely wonderful to work with! We had our two daughters with us for our wedding and Cristen was amazing with both of them. All of the photos are absolutely beautiful! So thankful I found Cristen for our perfect day!
Cristen and her husband were the best! They captured the best photos! Cristen even helped make sure things went smoothly while reassuring the bride. Choosing them as our photographers was definitely one of the best choices we made for that night!
Cristen is an amazing and talented photographer! Our pictures are beautiful and captured our day perfectly. She was a delight to work with and made sure to include all of our photo requests into the session. She even worked magic getting our dog to pose perfectly for pictures. Can't recommend her enough
Cristen was an absolute delight to work with! She made it such a fun experience, even for my 6 year old son. Her willingness to include him and do family AND engagement shots was so kind and the photos turned out even more beautifully than I imagined. We can't wait to work with her again!
Incredible, professional, easy to work with, friendly, and FAST! Cristen was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend her as a photographer for your event!!! The photos are natural and stunning!
From the start this whole process went flawlessly! Cristen was so accommodating, creative, great at communicating and you can tell she loves what she does. Our pictures turned out better than I ever could have expected, even with the rain making an appearance!
Cristen did such an amazing job with mine and my fiancés photos! We had our engagement shot on a Sunday and got all of our pictures back on a Tuesday! She was very quick at getting them back to us in a timely manner. She interacted and talked with us through the entire shoot and we felt comfortable! I highly recommend Cristen and Autumn Olive Photography!

Honestly, very fun to work with and kept us laughing the whole time. We really enjoyed working with her and we consider hiring her for our wedding.
The best ever!! Super fun to work with and captures beautiful moments. She has wonderful ideas for posing but also encourages you to do your own thing as well. Makes the experience not awkward and worked amazing with my fiancé and I even though we both can be camera shy. She had us comfortable and in the moment in no time!! Highly recommend.
Cristen was such a joy to work with! She was so kind, organized and easy to get in contact with. In addition to taking GORGEOUS photos of all of the people and moments I knew I wanted photographed, she also managed to get pictures of all of the moments and details I absolutely wanted photos of but didn't know to ask! Cristen has incredible instincts and I was honestly floored by her thoroughness and professionalism. She even sent us a beautiful wooden USB with all of our photos afterward! I cannot recommend Cristen highly enough!
There is not enough good things to say about Cristen!! She brightens up the room and she was so sweet the entire day!! And do not even get me started on the pictures….like incredible! I am so thankful for everything she captured from the ones i listed out and told her, to the candids she captured. Beyond thankful and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!!! 10/10 recommend and would give 6 stars if it was possible!!

Cristen offered up her expertise as we planned our wedding and our photos turned out wonderfully! Autumn Olive Photography was everything we wished for and more! Lori & Andrew
I am a wedding planner and recently had the pleasure of working with Cristen on a wedding. She was so great at communication leading up the event and was all smiles, on time, and capturing every important moment throughout the day! She is so talented at what she does and her passion for her job and her couples is very evident! She is a DREAM to work with for a planner - helpful, sweet, punctual and fun! Not to mention the pictures are amazing!! She was even sweet enough to take a few pictures of me working that I'm able to use to promote my business which is HUGE for me, I appreciated that so much as most photographers don't do that and with all the behind the scenes work I do, it's nice to have some photo evidence every once in a while (: If you hire Autumn Olive or have the opportunity to work with them, you won't regret it!
Pictures were perfect, very professional, flexible, reliable and a pleasure to work with. Cristen has now done my engagement, wedding and family photos through the years. She is also very patient with the kids and dogs. Highly recommend!
Cristen was simply amazing! She checked every box with 5 stars, from quality and value of service to professionalism and responsive communication, right down to turn around time sending us our beautiful wedding photos!

I highly recommend Cristen and will continue to recommend her for many years to come.

Cristen was amazing throughout my entire experience; from quote, to checking in before the event, arriving early, capturing every wonderful moment, and delivery of our photos in less than 1 week!
Her enthusiasm is contagious and she brought out the best in every person she captured. She has a special gift of recognizing lighting changes during our early evening to sunset timing, resulting in stunning images of our surroundings.
I highly recommend Cristen for her beautiful photography and all-around value. You won't be disappointed!
Cristen has fantastic passion for her work and truly wonderful energy. She was consistently patient with us all throughout planning. As a decidedly scatter-brained bride, it was so wonderful being able to work with someone who was focussed, organized, and dedicated. She easily rolled with the punches on the day of, and created beautiful images for us, despite some unique challenges.
Cristen was very professional, punctual, respectful, and had a very pleasant personality. She responded quickly to all of our questions and took many pictures, all of which were fabulous! We would highly recommend her to anybody needing photography services.

Cristen from autumn olive photography did SUCH an amazing job! I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our day. Coming from someone who never knows how to pose, Cristen knew exactly what she was going in telling us what to do and where she wanted us and she got our picture back so quick. Every one of them I want to frame in my house. I highly recommend her!
Cristen was amazing at photographing our wedding! She got all of the shots we wanted and more. Her skills are truly amazing as our photos turned out beautiful. We would highly recommend her to anyone wanting beautiful photos.
Cristen is wonderful!!!! Planning a wedding from another state is stressful and she was super responsive. The pics were great and she was very flexible with all of the weather challenges. I would highly recommend Cristen.
Tristan and I recently got married off the lake of Lake Lure, NC. I fell in love with Cristen's photos off her website and found out how nice she was through emails. Being from out of state she kept in great contact and did a fantastic job at our wedding. Our pictures came out great and we couldn't be happier with her.
