photos and our special day. She captured every moment of our event in the exact way we wanted. Every time I turned around Kristen was right there capturing every detail. She became more than our photographer but a dear friend through the process. We hope to come back to Hawaii and continue to shoot our growing family photos with her. She truly made our day magical and now we have priceless photos to look back on for a lifetime.

p doing a surprise engagement/family photos. We met her at a location just to see if it was something I had in mind as a possible place for the proposal and it was perfect! We also brainstormed how we would be able to pull off the surprise proposal and it couldn’t have gone and more smoothly. Not to mention when doing my family photos it takes my family forever, however, with Kristen it was literally THE BEST photoshoot we did and everything came out perfectly. Now to the proposal. When my mom, sister, and I met with Kristen we brainstormed on how it would even be possible to surprise my then girlfriend with a proposal. We all came up with a plan of just taking some photos of my girlfriend while our families set up further in the back with letters spelling out “will you marry me”. Kristen did an amazing job at keeping my girlfriend distracted and making sure she didn’t turn around. When everything was all set my girlfriend turned around with me on my knee and holding a white rose that doubled as the ring holder and Kristen captured everything that was going on. Now my fiancée and I always have photos and videos to look back at the special moment in our lives. Let me tell you, we look at those photos and videos everyday. We can’t thank you enough for everything, Kristen! If you are looking for someone to take your photos for anything, look no further! You won’t be disappointed!

her to discuss the setting we desired (sunset at the beach) and she answered any questions we had. We told her that one of us is uncomfortable with figuring out how to pose and showing PDA for a long period of time. That was not a problem whatsoever! She worked with our comfort level and she had a few tricks up her sleeve when it came to poses. After the shoot was done, she sent us a sneak peek of a handful of the edited photos and we received the rest of the photos within a couple weeks. We were ecstatic! They’re literally cover-page of a luxury magazine quality! Totally obsessed. I recommend her for your every occasion and for every “comfort level” type. We will definitely stick with her and her services for our every occasion we have in our life. Thank you Kristen!

on, we had a FaceTime meeting where we talked a lot about our marriage with Kristen and how we interact as a couple, what we were and weren't comfortable with, and what things would make our session most memorable and fun for us. She is so easy to talk to and genuinely cares about her clients. She also has a super quick turnaround time which we were beyond pleased with! We are so thankful to have had her available for both of our big life events and can't wait to use her again here soon! Thanks so so much Kristen!
