Hurst Photo

ner and I wanted our wedding day to feel authentic, romantic, and a little bit like a dreamy film, and somehow, Korie captured all of that and more. From our very first conversation, we knew we’d hit the jackpot. Korie took the time to truly get to know us, not just as clients but as a couple with a story worth telling. She hyped us up when we needed it, blended into the background like a true documentary-style pro, and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (which, trust me, is no small feat for two people who normally freeze at the sight of an iPhone camera). When we got our gallery back, we laughed, we cried, and we relived every single moment all over again. The way Korie captured the in-between moment, the glances, the happy tears, the way my grandmother held my hand during the ceremony, took my breath away. These aren’t just photos; they’re pieces of our history. If you’re looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond, who will make you feel like the most important humans on the planet, and who will deliver images that make your heart burst every time you look at them, Korie is your person. Seriously. Just book her. You’ll thank me later. — Wesley & June Calloway

tunning, so we asked if she could do maternity photos, and Korie, the photographer, was more than happy to capture this amazing time in our lives. During the shoot, she made us feel very comfortable and at ease when posing, and was very personable and fun! Additionally, she listened to what we were looking for in regards to location and poses. She is definitely a gifted photographer and I would recommend Desert Dweller Photography to capture all of your special life events. We are so happy with how our pictures turned out!

nd amazing she was that day. Her photos were of great quality and her editing was consistent! She has an eye for detail, was patient, and creative, and was so much fun!

Truly an unforgettable day! thanks to her because we have amazing photos for proof, haha! All laughs, hugs, kisses, kids, and every moment in between were captured beautifully, and my Husband and I were holding back tears, reminiscing what an amazing day we had.

fort that Korie put in to make our special day perfect!!!

t beautiful photos. She really made us feel like models for the day! It was such a fun experience. I couldn't believe how the tangerine sky and cacti in the background complimented our mauve dresses. We found some poses from TikTok and Instagram, but I have to say my favorite photos of all are the ones she got of us laughing and goofing off. They really reflect the love we have for each other and the happiness we were feeling in the moment. This will be one of my fondest memories with my sisters, and unlike most happy memories I have these amazing photos to remember the day. If you're thinking of having some photos taken with family, i highly recommend it! Especially if you have Korie behind the camera!!

! I told her some ideas that I had for my wedding photos and she was not only able to deliver just what I had in mind, but with her experience and expertise she was able to come up with some truly phenomenal ideas that felt personal and unique to me. I am not a photogenic person, but she helped with posing and was able to get some truly stunning images. Not only that, but the candies she took of our friends and family enjoying the night are still frame worthy images that I will forever cherish. She was punctual and had an amazing, positive attitude. I could not be happier!

look through my pinterest board and recreate my favorite looks. Our photos turned out beautiful!

, and I absolutely LOVE them. I told her what I was looking for and it was her idea to go to White Sands, and she gave me perfect ideas of what types of outfits to pick - even looked at pics I sent her to help me choose! I wanted to get a different mix of professional photos and for my brand on social media in this scenery, and she made me feel so comfortable it was like doing a photo shoot with my best friend!! Korie caught me in my moments when I was being goofy about being sexy/cute/comfortable and those photos came out looking like I was pulling these suave and beautiful poses on purpose! I seriously love them and have received responses like "WOW."; "DANG."; "Ohmygosh, can she take some of me??" from those who have seen them. Korie even caught shots of my Jeep!! I adore the adventures that vehicle and grace allow me to go on; since she knows this, she made sure to catch some killer shots of my 4x4 in the white sands. Thankfully, we never got stuck!! I look forward to more shoots with Korie, whether they're more individuals or engagement/wedding/day after/family (if I ever get to those milestones lol)! I wish I knew of her photography when I was graduating college, because she would have taken amazing senior shots. I love the outdoors, and her passion for it shines in her images. Korie Jecius is 100% recommended by me. P.S. If you've never been to White Sands National Park or don't have an idea of what it looks like, Google it. It's gorgeous and perfect for a shoot - amazing choice by Korie.

o exploring new places, and makes the experience exciting and fun. Her style of photography is modern and moody, making her photos beautiful and unique. I would call Korie to photograph any occasion without hesitation!

part of telling our story. When we got our pictures back we couldn’t help but cry, they captured the emotion of the day perfectly. Her laid back and warm personality made both me and David comfortable and that meant we could just be ourselves. I give Korie my highest recommendation
