Karisa Joy

erything expertly and efficiently and always with a smile. She has a nice website set up with a login for the couple to answer some questionnaires about their day and to later view their pictures. Our package included a free engagement session, 8 hours of shooting time on the day, and a second shooter. The engagement session was great and I would recommend it for anyone that's a little nervous about spending a lot of time in front of a camera. Plus, you get to ramp up your excitement with some awesome pictures of you and your soon-to-be just with each and other and having a sweet, romantic time without the hustle and bustle of the wedding. In between the engagement session and the wedding and the wedding and getting our photos, she was good about posting a few here and there as little teasers. On the day of, Karisa did a great job of handling all of the crazy timing, people, and places that we had to throw at her. She managed everyone and everything while managing to stay calm which kept me calm! Our wedding was on a Saturday in Stillwater so the town was super busy and we had to change our after-wedding photo location on a dime and pick a new one to lead our procession of cars to. She didn't bat an eyelash and managed to get some great pictures of us at my dad's house, probably even better than what we had planned! She memorized our list of must-have pictures and was open to any suggestions we had on the spot. Her second shooter did a good job with the boys as well. It was helpful to have two shooters since my husband and I weren't always in the same location and neither was our bridal party. It also only took her about two weeks to finish the pictures. We are able to log in and view them all and download in them in different file sizes for whatever use we need. They are amazing!

ty when choosing a photographer but quickly found out during our engagement session that it's very important! I was initially unhappy because the day we choose for our engagement pictures was cold and cloudy but with Karisa's upbeat attitude, I was fine just a few minutes into the photo shoot. Karisa energizes you through encouragement and just plain happiness when you're tired and had a full day of picture taking. Style: We loved her style especially because that there was no strange "artsy" special effects. We wanted soft, romantic, fun and honest (why yes, I do have some wrinkles when I smile and that's ok). Even though it's been months after we sent out the album, our guests are still commenting how great the pictures turned out. Business: The payment, contract, picture gallery and album review was all online which was so convenient! She was always prompt in responding to our questions and even checked in with us to make sure that we were on time to make key decisions. Pictures: We got a preview of our pictures less than two weeks after our wedding. The entire online picture gallery was done less than a month later. It was sooo convenient to send a link to our guests (and others who couldn't make it) and have them download the pictures they wanted. Other guests wished that their wedding photographer had given them such good coverage of the event.

edding photographer! Everyone still tells me how beautiful our wedding pictures are. I will look back at these pictures and cherish them for many years to come, sharing them with my children and my children's children. I highly recommend using her for any occasion. She has a very unique way of capturing life's perfect moments. You will not be disappointed!

have an artistic eye and produce great photos, but she's also nice, fun, and very professional. I DEFINITELY recommend Karisa.
