About this vendor

PICTURES ARE IMPORTANT AF. RIGHT? Right! But so is making sure you actually enjoy the ride. After photographing over 500 weddings, I know it’s about so much more than just pretty pictures (though trust me, I do those too!). It’s about bringing out real moments, real laughter, and a stress-free experience that feels 100% like you two. My magic? I don’t meet strangers—I bring connection, instantly and effortlessly. The kind of energy that shifts a room and makes people feel comfortable, confident, and totally themselves. I’m not just there to take pretty pictures. I’m there to be in it with you—fixing flyaways, calming nerves, wrangling toddlers, and making sure you don’t miss a moment (even the ones you didn’t know were happening). Fully present. Genuinely invested. More than just a photographer. Because the best images aren’t posed—they’re felt. And your wedding deserves nothing less.

Kiersten was wonderful! She went above and beyond to help us prepare for our wedding and the pictures turned out wonderful. She kept me sane on the day of and everyone absolutely loved her energy. I can't recommend her enough.

Kiersten is a wonderful photographer and more. She kept the groove and the timeline of the wedding going. She also kept people smiling all night! She took photos of everything I wanted and more. You will need to get a digital frame because you won’t be able to decide what pictures you want to print because they are ALL AMAZING!

I love Kiersten! Wonderful, beautiful pictures, and made my day so fun! So glad I chose her to be our photographer! Very professional, but also knows how to have a good time. We got our pictures in a very timely manner as well! Thank you Kiersten ❤️

To say Kiersten is talented and amazing is a UNDERSTATEMENT! to give a little background, my husband and I originally got married in 2022 when he was diagnosed with cancer and we had to cancel our original wedding. That day we didn’t get photos, family couldn’t be there and let’s just say it was a hard day. Fast forward two years later my husband is doing great and we got offered to renew our vows and have an “actual” wedding. Kiersten being the most incredible person ever offered to be our photographer. As a bride living in a different state and never meeting the person doing my photos I was a little nervous. But that was very short lived because when you meet Kiersten you are instantly a best friend to her, she is your biggest cheerleader and helped make me feel so confident and beautiful. Not to mention her personality is the highlight! She is so genuine and authentic and that’s what I love most! Our wedding photos came back so quick and they were stunning! And I mean STUNNING! She went above and beyond to edit the photos and get them back in a timely matter. I would recommend her to anyone who is wanting to have a fun and relaxing experience!! Kiersten we love you and cannot thank you enough for everything you did for us. We will forever cherish these photos and pass them along from one generation to the next. You are amazing!!

Kiersten is more than a photographer. She is an entire vibe! Our family was involved in a horrific car accident on the way to our wedding out of town that left us feeling distraught. BUT HERE CAME KIERSTEN! Her positive and beautiful soul lightened the mood tremendously and kept us all laughing throughout the day and night! Now on to the pictures, well I think they speak for themselves! She is a true artist behind the camera. By choosing Kiersten, you will not only have pictures that you will cherish for a lifetime, you’ll make a pretty bad ass friend along the way! We can’t wait to have her capture all of our life milestones!

2/09/2023 • Jessica D

Kiersten was SO much fun to work with on our wedding day & for our rehearsal dinner!! She made us feel so comfortable behind the camera. And the pictures…the PICTURES are absolutely stunning! And I mean every single one! Not only did we have the most perfect weather, we got the most beautiful sunset pictures you could ever dream of! 🥹 1000/10 recommend for your wedding or any other photo needs.

1/13/2023 • Paige G

KIERSTEN FREAKING STEVENSON. She has captured so many important memories of mine, including my proposal, my engagement photos, and my wedding. I texted her after my wedding asking how you thank someone for capturing the most important moments of your life.. because that’s exactly what she does. Five stars are not enough. A million stars are not enough. She’s so much more than a photographer. She was so much of the calm in my chaotic day. You won’t find better. I can’t say enough about Kiersten.

1/13/2023 • Rachael G

Kiersten was a dream to work with! She made me feel comfortable and CONFIDENT and just made the whole fam and wedding party excited for pictures (and you know how some people aren't always excited for that). It was a seamless, organic process and I can't recommend her enough! Multiple friends and family have already reached out to me because of how much they loved her!

12/28/2022 • Renee M

If you are looking for a photographer who is funny, accommodating, high energy, and professional, you've found the right person!! Kiersten's in-person personality and attitude is 100% reflective of her website, which is what grabbed my attention. I was sold during our first of many conversations. After the wedding, we now consider her one of the family. She's invited to all of the cookouts. LOL. If you want your vendors to be just as much a positive "experience" as your wedding, book her NOW!

10/27/2022 • Beth R

Kiersten is absolutely the best! She helped relieve so much stress I had, and helped the flow of everything run smoothly. She captured all of the big and even small moments with her ABSOLUTELY beautiful pictures of our perfect day. She is a magician when it comes to photography and she goes above and beyond to make everything perfect. It's not just a job for her, she is there for you the whole way through. Whether she was calming me down and bringing me a glass of champagne, or keeping everyone laughing and feeling comfortable throughout the whole day, she was on top of it. She is not just your photographer, she quickly becomes part of the family and fits right in. She is definitely the photographer you want for your special day. I can honestly say our day would not have been complete without her. Thank you again Kiersten for being a part of it all and being AMAZING!!

10/11/2022 • Haley B

I absolutely loved working with Kiersten on my wedding day! She was so easy going and fun. Leading up to the wedding, she was great at helping to organize the timeline and always responded quickly to any questions I had. Our pictures turned out even better than we could have expected and our friends and family have loved them as well! I cannot recommend Kiersten enough! She’s the best!!

4/03/2022 • Madison W

Hands down the BEST choice I made regarding my wedding (besides the groom)!! I knew Kiersten was the best fit for us after our engagement session went so smoothly and was so fun. I went on to step out of my comfort zone and do a boudoir. She made me feel so confident and it turned out AWESOME! When it came to wedding day, she made things run so smoothly. I was so relaxed and we had SO. MUCH. FUN. The 90+ sneak peaks we've already gotten (within 3 days after our wedding day) look phenomenal. All of my bridesmaids are wanting Kiersten now for their own weddings! She is worth all the money in the world and I look forward to using her for any and all occasions in the future!

2/25/2022 • Nicole L

I loved working with Kiersten on my wedding day and even leading up to it. Super personable and fun. Her experience & organization really put me at ease the day of, I knew she wouldn't miss a beat and I would have all the best memories captured to look back on. She really goes the extra mile & all of the photos are gorgeous, worth every penny!

2/11/2022 • Destinee L

I have known who I wanted to photograph my wedding years before I even met my husband. Kiersten was it. She is above and beyond anything I would have expected or dreamed of. From the moment you reach out to Kiersten to the moment she leaves your wedding (and honestly even after that) she is like your new bestie and your ultimate hype woman. Working with her was super easy and she makes everyone feel comfortable. Even my father in law, who doesn’t like having pictures taken, was laughing at her jokes and having a good time during family portraits. Kiersten is super fun and does her best to make sure that her couples are having the most amazing day ever. She wields absolute magic with a camera and is able to capture emotions like no other. The images that I’ve received from my wedding bring back every happy feeling from that day each time I look at them. She was able to capture some images that I will cherish for the rest of time. I would recommend her to ANYONE getting married because her work and energy is top tier.

1/12/2022 • Haleigh H

When you book Kiersten, you aren’t just booking a photographer, you are booking a full experience! She is so vibrant, full of personality, and life of the party- even when there is no actual “party”! She demonstrated her dedication to her profession and myself the moment we first communicated and she told me she would gladly take on my out of state elopement, when she had another wedding the next day in FL!! She arrived on time, and there wasn’t a moment she wasn’t snapping photos! I have full confidence she documented my smoky mountain wedding better then ANYONE else could have. She is also a great communicator and stayed in contact with my regularly from the time I first reached out to book her up until my wedding day. She. Is. Amazing! So, book this gal!!! You won’t regret it. She is worth every single penny and then some!!

12/31/2021 • Chelsea B

You have to book her. I’m not kidding. I cannot explain how amazing she is, but let me try. This girl went tromping through my entire neighborhood to find the most epic spot for portraits. She was able to keep the whole wedding party laughing and smiling even when we had delays and crazy family members causing stress. She also mingles so well that her genuine niceness was what almost everyone commented on after the wedding. Everyone, and I mean everyone, loved her. Her eye for catching pictures is amazing, her instructions are flawless and she I s willing to give 110% to give you what you want. Just give her all your money now and you won’t regret it.

12/19/2021 • MaryKatherine C

Having Kiersten as our photographer was one the best decisions that we made! She kept me calm and laughing even in the face of a few inevitable wedding mishaps, and I would not have gotten through the day without her. I HIGHLY recommend her for your special day!

12/16/2021 • Christi F

Our whole experience with Kiersten was 10/10. Her website and pictures sold us and then when we met her in person we knew she'd be a blast at our wedding. She truly makes you feel like her bff and will help you with anything along the way. The whole experience was perfect and worth every penny you will spend. Book her, you won't regret it!!

12/08/2021 • Lauren R

I don’t even know where to begin. Kiersten is your girl, I promise. HIRE HER! She made our day absolutely perfect. From the first moment I saw her photos, I fell IN LOVE. I knew I HAD to have her, so she was the very first vendor we booked. Kiersten is literally THE BEST. Her personality shines. She kept us, our bridal party, and our entire family laughing all day long. You can tell Kiersten loves what she does. She goes above and beyond. She captured our wedding day perfectly. We are now able to cherish our special day forever. We will be booking Kiersten for all our photography needs in the future.

8/21/2021 • Caitlin B

Kiersten was AMAZING. So glad we chose her as our wedding photographer. Both me and my husband are kind of camera shy type people, so I knew I needed to find a photographer who would be able to get us out of our shells haha. She did exactly that. She kept us laughing all day, helped out whenever she could, and took charge when needed. She seriously went above and beyond. Also I have to mention - she was super fun, hilarious, and genuine. Everyone loved her. If you want a true professional who knows what they’re doing, she’s your girl. I can honestly say, our wedding day would not have gone as smoothly without her. And as for the photos, they speak for themselves, so so beautiful, I couldn’t be happier.

8/11/2021 • Hannah F

Kiersten was absolutely amazing!!! She was so much fun to hangout with and is super hilarious! She makes you feel very comfortable and will party with you all night long. I met her the day of my wedding and it felt like we had been friends for years!! Definitely hire this gal if you want a super fun, relaxing, stress free time with your wedding pics!

6/21/2021 • Holly A

Kiersten was amazing!!! We loved her personality and all of our wedding guests commented on how fun she was! Kiersten was super flexible with everything on our wedding day and made us feel at ease in front of the camera. She captured truly beautiful moments and I couldn’t be more thankful!! Thanks again, Kiersten!!

6/10/2021 • Andrea P

Photos came out absolutely amazing! Could not have been happier, and pics were much better quality than any other wedding photos I have seen (friends weddings, etc.). Our sparkler exit was delayed due to rain and Kiersten even stayed later in order to capture it. Would absolutely book again, and wish she could have done our engagement photos!!

6/01/2021 • Heather C

Simply the best comes to mind. Kiersten made us feel so stress free on our wedding day when we could have easily been stressed out. We had envisioned an outdoor wedding and Mother Nature was having none of it. Kiersten to the rescue to not only make the day special and fun, but produce unique and amazing photos incorporating the rain. I can not recommend her enough if you not only want amazing photos, but have an awesome experience. The absolute BEST!!!!

5/26/2021 • Sierra K

Not only is she the best photographer EVER but she has THE personality you NEED on your wedding day! She will be your personal hype girl, life of the party, & calm to the storm all in one. I’m absolutely in love with our wedding photos & I will forever be grateful for a photographer who took away all the stress & made sure our day was perfect!!

5/22/2021 • Caryn B

Kiersten is amazing! My groom and I were both a little uncomfortable in front of the camera and with all the wedding attention but Kiersten made things so easy and the pictures OMG they are amazing!! I cried when I saw our sneak peek photos (and I am not a crier! lol). If you want a photographer who's a little sassy (which I LOVED), a whole lot of laughs and will capture the most amazing and intimate shots she is the girl for you!! She is truly talented and will get you that perfect shot (or like 100 perfect shots, lol!).

5/21/2021 • Hannah L

She is the absolute shit! I cannot recommend Kiersten enough! She is a magician when it comes to taking pictures! I am in love with our engagement and wedding photos! She makes you feel so comfortable and at ease! I felt like one of my best friends was there taking all the photos! If you hire her you will not regret it!

4/29/2021 • Hailey R

If there were an option for more than five stars I’d give her twenty! Our whole wedding would not have been great without Kiersten! Not only does she take phenomenal pictures for you to cherish forever, she’s honestly the life of the party! Anything and everything I could have possibly needed, Kiersten was right there to help me! She made what normally is the worst part of any sort of function, the easiest and most fun! If you’re considering hiring her, be like Nike and just do it!! You will not regret it!

3/25/2021 • Heather B

If you don't book with Kiersten, then you have lost your mind! Not only is her work AMAZING, but she is just the best person to be around. From our engagement shoot up to our wedding day and everything in between, the best. We had to reschedule our wedding 4 times due to covid but one thing we were not willing to lose was her. I could literally type for hours on how great she is!

2/17/2021 • Paulina M

We could not express enough how AMAZING she is! She is not only great at what she does, she also makes it FUN. Kiersten is so easy to work with, you literally have no worries with her! Worth every single PENNY!

1/30/2021 • Mikayla M

Kiersten is amazing!! She helps you feel so comfortable around her that pictures don’t feel awkward at all! I was nervous about pictures but she guides you through everything and makes it a breeze. Her sneak peaks are like full albums and amazing!!! Highly recommend her! I’ll hire her for any pictures in the future for sure.

1/08/2021 • Ashley N

Our wedding was absolutely perfect! Having Kiersten Stevenson as our photographer was the best decision we made about the whole wedding. Not only is she AMAZING at her job, but she also knows how to have a good time and keep you laughing. Throughout the whole day Kiersten kept me stress free and handled any problems we had related to taking pictures. From running between 4 different places to take pictures, to handling a situation at Eden Gardens Kiersten had everything under control and made what I wanted happen! For those needing a wedding photographer Kiersten Stevenson is your girl!!

10/20/2020 • Amber R

You will not regret booking with Kiersten! She truly is one of the best in the business. She made me feel so at ease as my anxiety was a little high and when I was getting ready she knew that a drink would help and walked next store to get me one! It turned out to be a cold and windy day nothing how we imagined the Florida weather to be but you could never tell from looking at the pictures. When I look at the pictures of me and my husband I think of her and how we had such an awesome photographer that made the day that much more special. I would never hesitate to hire Kiersten again. Thanks for the awesome job you did!

10/14/2020 • Kelli L

Kiersten is phenomenal!! I’ve known for a while I wanted to be in front of her camera! Being a bridesmaid in weddings shes photographed, and seeing her work on Facebook throughout the years I knew I needed her. She miraculously was available for our engagement shoot, and wow did those photos take our breath away! The colors, the light, and our love captured so beautifully. We were married about 2 weeks ago and we received so many funny, and heartwarming photos in our “sneak peak” and I’m longing to see the rest and frame these photos for our family. Kiersten gets the party started, shes so dang fun and before you know it, you’re besties! Thank you Kiersten, we love you!

10/13/2020 • Sara L

Kiersten is absolutely AMAZING! She was on a list of preferred vendors for a venue my husband and I were looking at in Panama City. I knew she was the photographer for us just by looking at her website! I felt like she was an old friend! Unfortunately the venue had severe damage from hurricane Michael and we could no longer get married there but Kiersten was still able to photograph our wedding even though we moved it to Pensacola and changed the date!! I was so happy that she was flexible and still able to do it! She was super amazing with all of our guests and family! She makes you feel extremely comfortable! She’s upbeat and fun! Cracking jokes and getting real smiles the whole time! She captured moments that my husband and I will cherish for a lifetime! If you haven’t hired her yet you should!

10/13/2020 • Julie S

Kiersten has been doing my pictures since before she got big. From modeling pictures, wedding, pregnancies, births, 1st birthdays for both of my kids and everything in between, she’s the only photographer I’d trust with the most important days of my life. I’d pay double just to be around her infectious laugh and fun personality. It’s not just about the pictures, it’s about the person behind the camera, there’s not a person that won’t feel like instant friends when they have pictures done with her!

10/12/2020 • Rachael P

Kiersten’s work speaks for itself. She takes absolutely STUNNING photos, and on top of it she’s SO much fun to work with. She made everything so easy and simple, and had a plan from the start so the bride doesn’t have to worry or think about any of the extra details - she thinks of everything! She is so easy going and down to earth, she fit right in with our family and guests. I would 110% recommend Kiersten for your photographer - you won’t find anyone more talented or more fun! 💗

10/03/2020 • Hope A

The one you need for your wedding! Kiersten is a phenomenal photographer as you can see from her pictures. But that was just the start. She was able to help us with little things on the big day and take some stress of us (bride and groom) and makes everyone feel comfortable. The day fly's by so fast its like a blur but having amazing photos taken by Kiersten was the best decision we made for our wedding. Oh yea and shes a good shit and will have you laughing all day.

4/28/2020 • Megan G

She is a PHENOMENAL photographer who will deliver BOMB photos. Where to begin?! Seriously, I don’t think Connor and I could have imagined this entire process without Kiersten. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, she made us feel at ease and comfortable while she took our photos. She kept telling us to just love in the moment, love on each other and act natural, which resulted in AMAZING photos. (don’t just take my word for it – go look for yourself!) Kiersten also made our families feel comfortable so we could create priceless moments with loved ones that we will cherish for a lifetime. She genuinely cares about the couple she is working with, wants you both to shine and makes sure you enjoy every minute. In the end, Kiersten became a friend of ours and someone who helped us create and capture memories that will last us a lifetime. We don’t have the words to thank her for everything she has done for us. We would pick her over and over again. And we can’t wait to work with her again in the future!

2/01/2020 • Alexis D

Where do I start ! Kiersten didn’t feel like my photographer she felt like family! During the engagement and wedding photos she encouraged my husband and I just to be our selves and love each other. Due to my husband being shy she wasn’t afraid to call him out and say KISS HER SHES YOURS! Which totally worked because we got AMAZING pictures and I got some extra lovings;) during the wedding kiersten was by my side making sure I was drinking lol she truly wanted me to enjoy my day to the fullest! I haven’t seen my wedding pictures yet but I’m still OBSESSING over my engagement photos. She made the pictures so real like we were just hanging out being us like the best friends we are. I recommend kiersten to anyone who wants to feel comfortable and beautiful on their fairy tale day! I felt like a true princess and I can’t wait to see the photos to prove it and I know she will make that come true. So what are you doing still reading this book her!!!! YOU WONT REGRET IT

1/05/2020 • Danielle A

y’all. kiersten is amazing and you’d be absolutely crazy to not have her photograph everything in your life! i knew i wanted her to photograph our wedding well before i met my husband after seeing her work from a friends wedding and i’m so thankful i was creeping on facebook that day! she made everything from our engagement photos to our wedding day so fantastic and relaxed all while feeling intimate despite all the people around us. not only is her work clearly amazing she becomes the friend you never knew you needed - she did everything from fix my hair and dress to feed me cake and made sure my hand always had a drink in it. she is seriously wonderful and all of our family and guests continue to rave about her! i can’t wait for her to photograph our fat babies next!

12/24/2019 • Kalyn J

Best photographer in Bay County. Kiersten goes above and beyond to make your wedding day special. Not only is she amazing at what she does, she is personable, easy-going, and helpful throughout your wedding day. Will always recommend Kiersten Stevenson Photography, and I can’t wait to book another session with her for family pictures in the future. You won’t regret booking her.

12/23/2019 • Rhonda J

Kiersten is the BEST. Even not feeling well, she was absolutely amazing!! So blessed to have had her photographing my daughter’s special day. The sneak peeks were just incredible. I know the blog will be fabulous!! Recommend Kiersten 100%. She’s got a way to make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed so we all could enjoy. Thank you Kiersten. You are a gift ❤️🙌

12/19/2019 • Alexa N

Kiersten was the absolute best thing we could have asked for in a photographer. She was prompt in responding to me with my inquiry about our big day. I booked her waaay in advance because I knew how incredible she is. She kept in touch throughout the waiting time between our engagement and wedding. Come the day of, she was not only part of our day but the most socially tactful photographer I’ve ever encountered. She was playful, reserved, funny and at all times made sure she was capturing as many memories as possible. Other than marrying my best friend, Kiersten was one of the best parts of our wedding. If you’re looking for a photographer look no further, you will not regret your decision making Kiersten your girl.

12/07/2019 • Karen H

She is THE BEST! I absolutely loved having her as our photographer. Kiersten went above and beyond to make the day about us. I have a huge family and it takes someone serious to get all of us lined up for a photo when your pressed for time to get to the intimates. I truly felt as if Kiersten was the ultimate wedding guest, it felt like she was suppose to be there. I would highly recommend having her as your next event photographer.

12/06/2019 • Farrah J

There aren't enough characters allowed in this review to really articulate how much of a positive difference Kiersten made at our wedding. We had no doubt she would be an amazing photographer (looking at her website, you can definitely tell). We also knew she would be hilarious (one glance at any of her posts on Instagram can tell you that). What we were surprised about was how caring and attentive she was. Kiersten was both the life of the party and the one constantly by my side seeing if I needed anything. She was both cracking jokes with my mom and protecting me from things I didn't want to do. She truly was every aspect of a photographer that we wanted and needed! Kiersten cares. She really does. She cares for her brides, she care for her photos, and she cares that your wedding lives up to all your dreams and expectations. And that is what matters when choosing a photographer - that they care for you. If you are at all doubtful about Kiersten at this point in the review, you shouldn't be. She is the BEST choice for any bride that wants a photographer that will go above and beyond what she is asked to do. I am SO thankful we chose Kiersten and I would choose her again 1000 times over.

11/30/2019 • Casey B

We could not have dreamed of a better photographer for our wedding day. Kiersten made us feel super comfortable while being photographed and also kept us laughing nonstop. Not only did we love Kiersten but SO MANY of our wedding guests expressed how much they enjoyed her. Kiersten’s fantastic personality made it feel like she was a long time family friend that also happens to be a bada** with a camera. We will definitely use Kiersten for all of our photo needs in the future.

11/06/2019 • Mariah Q

If you want your day captured in the most perfect way by like the coolest person seriously hire Kiersten as your girl! Our wedding day was the first time we met Kiersten due to it being a destination wedding and I’ve never been more comfortable with a photographer. Not only is Kiersten just like an all around awesome person to be around she’s SO GOOD at her job. We had 22 sneak peaks the day after and I was BLOWN AWAY. Best photographer ever, best decision ever.

7/27/2019 • Anna D

I cannot express how happy we were that Kiersten was our photographer for our special day 💜!! The whole day was an absolute DREAM!!! She is THE BEST hands down! Kiersten is detail oriented and proactive about making your special day exactly how you want it. I love how Kiersten made everyone laugh, feel comfortable, and included throughout the wedding and reception. If you want an AMAZING photographer she is your girl!!!!!

7/20/2019 • Robin D

Keirsten was soooo much fun and we are both so happy that she was a part of our big day! Her personality brought out everyone's smile and she kept us laughing all night! If you are looking for the perfect photographer to make your day even more memorable, she is your girl!! We definitely recommend her.
