Pristine quality

Seasoned with weddings

From our very first phone call all the way through the moment she left our wedding night, Christy was truly an absolute gem to work with! She is kind, professional, incredibly organized, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, I was amazed by how effortlessly Christy and her team kept everything flowing. There were moments when I remember thinking, “There is no way she is going to be able to capture everything!” and somehow, she did. She kept us on schedule without ever making the day feel rushed, and she captured my husband and me so perfectly and authentically. Christy’s communication throughout the entire planning process was also incredible. She was always quick to respond, answered every question I had, and made me feel completely confident going into our wedding day. Her drone work was actually one of the big reasons we originally chose Christy and her team, and I am SO glad we did! The level of talent, care, and professionalism they brought to our wedding was everything we could have hoped for and more. I truly cannot recommend Christy and her team enough. We absolutely LOVE her and are so incredibly thankful that she was the one who captured the best day of our lives. These are memories we will have forever, and I couldn’t imagine anyone else behind the camera! 🤍

1000% recommend!! 🤍 Christy was our photographer for our wedding two weeks ago, and she was absolutely amazing! I had a vendor not show up, which made an already stressful day even more overwhelming, but Christy was phenomenal through it all. She was so kind, communicative, and knew exactly how to capture all the perfect shots! I’m so incredibly happy we had her there to capture our special day. If I ever need a photographer again, I will definitely be reaching out to her!<3

Christy was one of the first vendors we booked for our wedding and was by our side for anything we needed throughout our almost two year engagement. From the beginning she was kind...

, easy-going, and willing to help with whatever we needed throughout the planning process, even beyond photography. She was easy to communicate with, quick to respond to our questions, and the insight she was able to offer from her years of experience in the wedding industry was just one of the many intangibles we appreciated most about her! On the day of the wedding, Christy was a calming presence amidst the fast-paced chaos and everyone enjoyed having her around. She kept us moving and on-time while still capturing all of the pictures we wanted. From our engagement session to the day of the wedding, all of the pictures she captured were absolutely beautiful! Christy is incredibly talented and we can’t wait to showcase our wedding pictures in our home. My husband and I are so glad we chose Christy to be a part of our day and can’t recommend her enough to anyone else looking for a wedding photographer. She is definitely first on our list if we need any family pictures down the road too!

I would recommend Christy to everyone I know!

bbly personality and fun sense of humor. My husband and I always feel a bit awkward in front of a camera and she made the whole experience fun and easy - which shows in our photos! She made us look like movie stars! She also captured the details of our wedding perfectly. Viewing our wedding album felt like we were experiencing our wedding in real time all over again. Her prices were extremely reasonable and frankly, a bit low for the quality of work we received! You must book her!

Hannah L

Christy is absolutely AMAZING! From planning to the actual day of the wedding, she was so on top of everything. She went through our entire wedding timeline with me beforehand and ...

gave me tips to prepare. On the day-of, she arrived early to our bridal suite, and gave me updates on how the groomsmen were doing with her second photographer, which gave me a sense of calm that everything was running smoothly. We just received the photo gallery back, and all the photos are stunning!!! She captured the day beautifully!!! We will always treasure these photos and are so happy we chose Christy as our photographer. Book her now!!!!

From our engagement shots to the actual day, we are in love with our photos. Leading up to the big day, she checked in on us and made herself visible for anything we needed. She and the the other Christy were creative and tried shots that turned out amazing. We got our previews quickly and we got our full gallery in the allotted time.

my list of importance when planning a wedding. I met Christy and instantly clicked with her. Working with Christy has been such a joy, we have become friends over the past year, and I cannot wait to have her photograph my future family. She is a great communicator, and we worked together to find different areas to take engagement photos and wedding photos. We got our engagement photos back and I was blown away. They were amazing!!! We got a sneak peek of our wedding photos from last weekend...and I was AMAZED at the moments she captured, and the beauty in which they were portrayed. I will forever be thankful!!!!! I also appreciated Christy for her honesty and reasonable prices. She doesn’t try to oversell, her prices are more than fair, and she worked with me to stay within my budget. Some other photographers tried to sell me a wood box or a USB with their logo on it- you won’t find this nonsense with Christy. You will get incredible wedding photos at a fair price, and make a new friend in the process! Book her now- you won’t regret it! Booking Christy for our wedding was one of the best wedding planning decisions that I made.
