Christy was absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding! She was such a pleasure to work with, and we are so grateful we had her there to capture such an important day in our lives. Our wedding day went by so quickly, and having these beautiful photos to look back on means more to us than words can explain. She captured so many special moments that we will get to look back on for the rest of our lives. We truly appreciate the time, talent, and care she put into capturing our day, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Choosing a wedding photographer is such an important decision, and we are so glad we chose Christy. We would recommend her a thousand times over to anyone looking for someone to capture their special moments!

If I could give Christy 12 Stars I would !! She was so incredible and took extra time with us. She went into depth with our wishes and took her time to look at my inspirations and made all our wishes come true ! I couldn’t be happier with how the pictures turned out and am so happy we went with her . Her prices are more than fair for the work she does ! If you’re looking for a photographer for your wedding or elopement, look no further!!

Christy Archibald

Owner

As a sucker for all things whimsical and romantic, I fell into insta-love with weddings when I shot my first one in 2010. 200 (ish) weddings later, I'm still giddy when you say "I do", weepy when you dance with Mom or Dad, and elated when your best man successfully executes the worm on the dance floor. My favorite wedding things are BFFs tying the knot, brides in flower crowns, grooms in glasses, rich color schemes, and cake pops. Beyond the wedding world, you'll find me with my nose in a book, my feet in the gym, and my mind on Jesus. Love is in the details, and I can't wait to capture yours!

Ashlyn C

Picking Christy Archibald as our wedding photographer was the best decision my husband and I made. Christy is detail-oriented, talented, and she takes a personal interest in every...

one she works with. She goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and she provides support with posing, relaxing in front of the lens, etc. All of these qualities and more are what make her wedding photos top tier. Personally, I am extremely self- conscious and I typically do not like how I look in photos. Christy changed all of that for me. She helped me pose and find the right angles that worked for me. What is also impressive about Christy is her communication and her speed of work. She communicates back quickly and clearly, and she returned photos to us quicker than I ever expected. Finally, the photos are beautiful. Christy knows how to photograph inside buildings and outside, and she makes everything come together very well. Do not hesitate to hire Christy, she is truly one of the best!

Response from Christy Archibald Photography

Ashlyn!! Oh my gosh, you made my day! Your review is so thoughtful. I'm happy to hear that...

you felt comfortable and supported and that you're loving the photos. You and Jaxon did such an amazing job with everything (it's easy to capture happiness! :) ), and I appreciate your quick communication during the planning process too. It was a joy working with you two, and I'm excited about your & Jaxon's marriage! Blessings!

There are no words to express how amazing Christy is. Throughout the wedding process Christy was so responsive, flexible, and kind. She not only helped with our beautiful photos bu...

t gave us other vendor recommendations. She got our wedding pictures back to us so quickly which was so amazing. During our wedding day Christy was amazing to work with. It poured rain during our wedding and she was so flexible and went with all the changes we had to make to our original wedding timeline. And Christy is not only an amazing photographer but she’s up for anything. My husband and I own a bucking bulls business and bucked bulls after our ceremony. Christy got right in there and captured our unqiue wedding experience. I highly recommend Christy for your day, she will never disappoint.

Response from Christy Archibald Photography

Julia! Thank you so much for the kind review!! I loved working with you and Drew (and your...

bulls!). You've been so sweet and responsive during the planning process, and I appreciate you as well. So glad you're enjoying the photos and that you felt like I was able to roll with the changes and enjoy the unique experiences - that's so important to me! Excited for you and Drew! Thanks again for having me!

Naseem K

Christy is the best photographer I've worked with (and I've had many)!!! Her talent and personality are a perfect combo- she has amazing communication, promptness, cool under pres...

sure, and her photos were incredible. She worked with kids and groups and was successful with both getting some great candid shots as well as portraits. The colors of her photos are rich and crisp, which is what I was mainly looking for. She gave amazing advice on how to pose that looked beautiful when the photos came out. We got our photos within 3 weeks, with a generous amount of photos. I am definitely booking her for future events or photoshoot, if she will have availability!!

Response from Christy Archibald Photography

Naseem, what a thoughtful review!! Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm so happy to ...

hear that you felt like you were communicated with thoroughly and that the posing, colors, and photos came out how you'd hoped! All of that is so important to me. Your day was absolutely stunning, and your family and girls were so sweet. I've loved getting to know you and Farshid and would love to work with you again too! Congrats!!

We were brand new to professional photography and Christy made us feel comfortable, beautiful, and helped to bring out the best poses for us with no awkwardness. Christy is a gem and perfectly captured our very special wedding day and I will cherish her photos for the rest of my life!

Bethany M

I’ll be the first to admit that, as an artsy person getting married in an unconventional venue (residential home) and a family that can be ornery, my wedding was going to be a chal...

lenge for any photographer. I reviewed so many photographers before choosing Christy for her photo quality and editorial style - her attention to detail was clearly fantastic. As time went by I knew she was a great fit personally as well. She has been doing this a long time and is extremely professional. She is scheduled and organized (strengths you don’t always find alongside artistic talent) and she communicates clearly and well. She is also calm, a quality I appreciated at such a busy event. The day of our wedding she was on time, methodical, and everywhere working very hard. My family appreciated her management of family photo time - clear without being bossy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to another bride! Do be sure to read her contract fine print which among other things has a non-defamation clause.

Response from Christy Archibald Photography

Bethany, thank you so much for the thoughtful review! I'm so glad that you felt like there...

was clear communication, calmness, professionalism, and detail-orientation surrounding your wedding photography! Those things are so important to me. Your wedding was absolutely stunning, and I loved all of the thought and intention you and Ardie put behind every moment and detail of your big day. Your artistic vision was lovely to be a part of. Blessings to you two on your new adventure!

Tracie H

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Christy and am in LOVE with our wedding pictures!! Christy took my high school senior pictures 12 years ago and I couldn't wait to ...

ask her to be our wedding photographer as well! We had our engagement pictures and wedding pictures taken by Christy and I HIGHLY recommend her for any photography needs! She took the time to get to know what we wanted for our wedding/engagement photos and made our vision come to light better than I could've imagined! Christy is so easy to work with and is very kind! She is very organized, punctual, accommodating to clients' busy schedules, knowledgeable, creative, and detail oriented. She also answered any/all questions and made us feel comfortable/heard throughout the whole process. We got both our engagement and wedding photos back within a very short time frame and they are just perfect. I am so thankful to have such wonderful photos that captured our wedding season and I love reliving our best day through our beautiful pictures! I guarantee you will NOT be disappointed with your photos when using Christy as your photographer!!

Response from Christy Archibald Photography

Oh my gosh, Tracie!!! What a kind review! You seriously made my day. I loved working with ...

you 12 years ago for your senior photos, and I loved working with you for your wedding! It was beyond special to be a part of those two life events. I'm so glad to read that you felt heard and comfortable during the planning and photography process and that your vision was captured how you'd hoped! Those things are so important to me. Thank you again for having me! You and Brett were so much fun to work with, your wedding day was beautiful, and I'm excited for you two! Congrats!!

Joanna S

My husband and I had a small court house wedding, and I wanted to book a photographer for only a couple of hours. I reached out to Christy and I could tell right away that I wanted...

to work with her! She is an absolute pro, and she even accommodated us at the last minute--I emailed her about two weeks before the wedding! As for how the photos turned out, I am speechless. I can't stop looking at them! The look and feel is romantic, playful, and elegant all rolled into one. You might think that some of the poses are awkward feeling, but I promise you they will turn out great. Thank you, Christy. You captured this special day, and I'm so grateful!

I’m not creative and didn’t have many ideas of what I wanted out of my photos, and Christy took the lead, getting beautiful shots efficiently. She has an amazing talent for what will look good, while making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I can’t recommend Christy enough!

Daniel C

Christy is not only an amazing person with amazing energy that she brought to our event, she is an amazing photographer and hands down the best I interviewed through a long intervi...

ew process over a few months. Photography is one of the most important vendors you can hire for your wedding day, it was the first one we hired after securing our venue and date. You will remember your day through your photographs and will look at them over and over, more than you will any video, so the choice of a photographer is very important and Christy delivers on every level. Her detail shots were amazing, the candids during the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception truly captured the whole event exactly as we remembered living it and her portraits are simply breathtaking. It is truly a talent when a photographer can take people who aren't models and make them look like they can easily be on the pages of any magazine! Do yourself a favor and sit down with Christy for an interview, look over her portfolio and see what she can bring to your special day. You will not be disappointed!

Response from Christy Archibald Photography

Daniel - wow!! You just made my day! What an incredibly kind and thoughtful review!! I'm s...

Christy was phenomenal! She photographed my wedding day, and we had a bridals portrait session one month before. Christy is so professional, personable, and a great photographer. M...

y husband and I are not the type to love taking pictures, but she made us feel very comfortable when we were taking staged photos. On the wedding day, Christy was organized and stuck to her timeline to ensure we got all the pictures we wanted. My husband and I did a photographed first look, and at the start of the first look, I had no idea she was there photographing! Those are some of my favorite pictures. During the more candid moments of the day, you would never know she was busy taking pictures of every moment and detail, but if I needed/wanted her, I could always find her within seconds. She did a great job capturing how we felt on our wedding day, and we will cherish these pictures forever. Cannot recommend Christy enough!

Oh my gosh, Lauren, thank you so much for the sweet review!! I'm so happy to hear that you...

and Noah felt comfortable during the photos and that you felt like I was stealthy enough for you to fully enjoy your wedding moments. :) Your wedding was such a blast, and I was so grateful to be a part of it. Blessings to you two!!

Christy's work is simply incredible! After having chatted on the phone, I loved how easy it was to speak to her about our vision and style. She immediately understood what we were ...

looking for and had lots of ideas. Christy was the best at posing us in a way that made us feel natural and look beautiful. Throughout the months leading up to the wedding, Christy was always so responsive to my many questions and concerns I had. I could expect a response from her within 24 hours and usually much quicker than that. Our finished wedding photos blew us away! I am in awe of how filled with love, naturalness, and light the photos are. Christy captured gorgeous family photos, candids, intimate moments of my husband and I, and the most perfect lifelong memories which we will cherish forever. Thank you for you amazing work, Christy!! If I could give her 10 stars, I would :)

Lesley C

Christy is an unbelievable find! I feel like I'm not the best at explaining what I like and she was able to get exactly what I wanted in the photos. I admire her professionalism an...

d the effort she put into making sure she cultivated the right mood for our photos. She sent out a very detailed questionnaire prior to our wedding to get an idea of what we were looking for, which I thought was brilliant and unlike anything I've experience with other photographers. She captured all the sweet candid moments and every photo turned out beautifully! Choosing Christy for your wedding is a no brainer. Worth every penny.

forward with our wedding celebration during a pandemic, Christy made everything was so easy to plan and she made it all look so easy. I had the privilege of having Christy shoot both my bridals and my wedding, where she was also joined by Britt. Christy was so fun and easy-going and made me feel like we were already best friends. She and Britt were so great at directing the shots at the wedding and capturing candids that were so gorgeous that they looked posed. Not to mention they were so fun to be around that it was like having my very own photography hype squad! Choosing Christy Archibald Photography will be one of the best, and easiest decisions you could make in the wedding planning process.

ou two were an especially bright spot in the midst of 2020. So grateful to hear that you had fun during the photography, felt comfortable with the posing (and candids!), and that you felt hyped up along the way! Those things are so important to us. Wishing you two the happiest life together!

al pictures. Christy was able to capture “us” perfectly, both with them and without them! I had a couple of pictures in mind when going into each shoot and I left the rest up to Christy and her eye for everything was perfect! She didn’t do any sneak peek pictures, but she also had everything edited from the wedding and back to us in less than a month!!

Christy was a real dream to work with! We hired her for engagements, a couple's shoot (rather than just bridal), and wedding day. Christy was understanding and reassuring during th...

e mess of 2020 with all the rescheduling. She was always quick with a friendly response to my multitudes of emails. She tirelessly worked with me to get the colors just right on our photos in editing so everything was just the way I wanted. After working together on the first two shoots, Christy remembered poses we liked, poses we didn't, and had all the editing done to my preferences for the hundreds of photos from the wedding day. She was also surprisingly fast at delivering photos to us after each shoot. Not only do I recommend Christy as a wedding photographer, I would encourage any couple to also hire her for the pre-wedding shoots!

any shots from different angels to allow you the greatest selection. She got our picture to us the next day every time except wedding day photos since there a thousands. The quality was amazing, we could not have hired a better photographer. She is very kind and takes the time to get to know her clients. She'll even help you overcome your nerves and carry items during the shoot. I absolutely would hire her again and recommend her to anyone!

The 5-star rating on The Knot says "The best ever!" and that rings so true with regard to Christy. From the first moment we sat down to meet with her to talk about our wedding, we ...

knew she was the right choice. She has been the best photographer we could have hoped for and more, and has been SO kind, careful, and understanding with all things COVID. Her thoughtfulness and kind heart have been a wonderful bonus for us as well- we have truly felt like we're simply taking pictures with a friend! Her photography style is stunning and perfectly flattering on this bride and groom who prefer to be behind the camera more than in front of it. She made us feel comfortable and confident in every situation, and it shows in the photos. Christy has an eye for beautiful shots & poses, and was able to guide each of us & our families through every step. I would hire her again and again!

he just has a way of making things easy! We'd never had professional photos taken so we were total newbies going into it for our engagement shoot and bridal session, but she guides you and makes things easy and low stress. The photos turned out simply amazing and were exactly what we were hoping for, and more. I am so happy and honored that Christy was such an important part of our special day!!! I highly recommend her!
