Hiring Kristen to capture our Vegas vow renewal was the best decision we made for our special day! I discovered Kristen on Instagram a few years ago when my husband and I first started talking about a vow renewal. The Elvis-themed ceremony at the Little White Chapel was meant to have a fun and playful vibe; however, we wanted the photos to have a more classic aesthetic. Kristen's ability to utilize natural light and capture her clients' personalities in photos is what truly caught our eye.
In addition to the ceremony itself, Kristen captured beautiful photos at locations meaningful to our story, like the Bellagio fountains where we got engaged, and the Wynn hotel where we got married. Some photographers might have been stressed by the construction and grandstands in the background from the Vegas Gran Prix, but not Kristen—she worked different angles and poses to ensure we were giving ‘main character’ energy and remained the focus in the photos.
When Kristen shared the wedding album with us, I literally squealed in excitement and couldn't stop "hearting" favorites. Kristen's professionalism and helpfulness before, during, and after the day made the entire planning process a breeze. Her recommended vendors were top-notch, ensuring the day was seamless and special. With Kristen behind the camera, we were able to be present and fully enjoy every moment. I highly recommend her for capturing your special days—you won't be disappointed!
We cannot recommend Kristen enough for absolutely anything that you need photographed, but especially for weddings!!! She was so communicative and helped us figure out exactly what we wanted. Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning and it was worth every penny!!!! Thank you so much Kristen 🤍🤍
I cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Kristen!! In short, booking Kristen as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
Neither my wife or I love taking pictures, so choosing a photographer for our wedding came with lots of anxiety. From the moment we got off our initial Zoom informational call with Kristen, we were immediately at ease and knew she was the best choice for us.
We do not live in Las Vegas, so we worked with her mostly through Zoom. However, she worked around our schedule to make sure we could do our engagement photos when we were visiting near Christmas, and took some of our favorite couples photos we've ever had done.
On our wedding day, Kristen came with the same calm, fun energy to make sure we got all the photos we wanted but remained flexible to capture such fun candids!
Kristen eased all of our photo anxiety, took detail photos I'm obsessed with (never knew I could love a picture of an invitation so much), and captured our love and our wedding day in the most authentic way to us.
Kristen's work is beautiful, her turnaround time is quick and efficient, and she is such a fun person to work with!
Thank you for everything, Kristen!!
Kristen was our dream wedding photographer! We cannot express how wonderful she is to work with. From our engagement shoot, to the big day, it was so easy to contact her and trust her vision. Everyone commented on how wonderful she was, and how great her directing was including my sweet camera-shy husband. She made everyone feel comfortable and checked in with us the entire night to make sure we got all the shots we wanted! We are so thankful we had her expertise on our big day and are in LOVE with her work. She gave us some amazing teasers the very next day and we can't wait to see the rest of her work when the entire album is done. For our engagement shoot, she did a wonderful job capturing our sweet dog in the photos as well! All of our guests commented on how amazing the shots were of the three of us for our save the dates. I cannot wait to see the rest of her work and I can't wait to work with her again for more family milestones down the road!
We loved Kristen! We used her for our wedding in May 2024 and couldn’t be happier with our choice. She was so energetic and organized on the day and made everyone feel comfortable and excited to be photographed. She provided a sneak peak of about 30 photos the very next day which was amazing to continue soaking in the celebration. The photos were absolutely beautiful and we have gotten so many compliments on them!
Kristen was such a joy to work with. She truly elevated our wedding events with her kindness and positivity alongside her extreme professionalism. Her guidance during the photoshoots brought out the best part of ourselves. She sent us next day edits and they’re absolutely stunning. She also sent us all of our photos way earlier than we expected!! We couldn’t have asked for more. She was super understanding and easy to work with through us changing our engagement shoot date and all the last minute changes. We’re so happy we chose her to capture the most important moments in our life!!
I have no words for the talent that this woman has. She made us look like professional models when I was scared to even take a picture. She always made us feel comfortable and kept us laughing. She has such a great guy for art, and I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants perfection. Thank you so much Kristen for capturing, my love from my husband.
Kristen was such a pleasure to work with! From our very first Zoom interview, to our engagement photo session, and to our BIG day, Kristen made us feel special. Her style is light, bright, natural and truly timeless.
When my now husband and I were looking through websites, IGs, and reviews of potential photographers we knew we wanted to have an interview with Kristen. After speaking with her, we knew right away she was the one we wanted to capture our wedding day. She is so kind, down to earth, welcoming and thoughtful. She answered all our questions and really made sure we did not feel rushed or pressured in making a selection.
When you book with Kristen, all her wedding collections come with an engagement session. My husband and I were a little nervous because we aren't really photogenic people. But Kristen really has an eye to make it all look effortless and AMAZING! She helped us get comfortable in front of the camera and with each other which we really appreciated.
When it came to our wedding day, it was like meeting an old friend. She not only made us look stunning, but she managed to make all 20 members of our wedding entourage SLAY and everyone was serving!
We are so excited to see all the photos from that magical night, from what we saw so far, they are picture perfect. Could not have asked for a better photography team. 10/10 would recommend! Thank you so much Kristen for everything and we hope to work with you again for future portraits! Love Nikko & Aaron <3
Kristen Solis from Kristen Marie Weddings + Portraits was absolutely incredible! She and her team captured the most beautiful photos for our destination wedding at Green Valley Ranch Resort Spa & Casino. From our very first conversation, Kristen was awesome, very knowledgable and so easy to work with. The pictures that she and her team took on our wedding day were breathtaking and the finished photo albums were nothing short of amazing! We would highly recommend Kristen Marie Weddings + Portraits to anyone looking for a truly professional photo experience! Philip & LeAnne Pestrichello
Having Kristen photograph our wedding was a dream come true! I originally found her IG about 1.5 years out from our wedding and instantly fell in love with her work. It is bright, timeless, and so classy! We knew her work would compliment our black-tie wedding perfectly! She is very experienced in the wedding industry and knew all of our vendors which made planning so much easier. We loved having vendors that have worked with each other, because it created such a cohesive environment.
We also loved that she included an engagement shoot with the wedding booking. It made such a difference on our wedding day and made us feel so comfortable with her! After those 3 hours, we felt like we knew her forever.
Our wedding day was perfect, and I have no doubt that Kristen played a role in making it the perfect day for us! She made sure we were able to truly be in the moment and enjoy every second. I didn't have to stress about what pictures to get or where to be because she knew exactly what we wanted without us even mentioning it! It was incredible!!
After getting our teasers (THE NEXT DAY!!) we knew we needed a physical copy of our pictures in an album. They were STUNNING - so timeless, polished, and bright. She truly puts her all into her work, and you can see that in the photos. We love how she was able to capture all of our favorite moments and especially how she took some incredible candid shots of my grandpa (those are some of my favorites). We love reliving the day through her work.
Kristen is THE BEST and we are so honored that we had her photograph our wedding.
Kristen is incredible at what she does, and my husband and I would love to work with her again for our future life milestones! We feel so lucky to have found her and had so much FUN working with her. Professional and caring, she is also an artist whose gorgeous photos will tell the story of your love in a way that feels like *you* and capture memories that you and your loved ones will cherish for a lifetime. Her natural, classic style and easygoing personality made choosing her the easiest decision of our wedding planning journey. If she is available for your wedding date, do not hesitate to book her! Once you do book her, get ready to enjoy complete peace of mind in the days to months leading up to the big event, knowing your photos will turn out beautifully and that on the day-of, you can be totally present with your spouse-to-be, family, and friends.
Kristen is absolutely incredible. My favorite thing about working with Kristen was her ability to instill complete confidence in us as our photographer. Photography is such a huge part of one's wedding day and you use those photos to look back and feel the memories all over again. Kristen's personality was kind, confident, and caring and we felt totally taken care of by her (not to mention her photography is amazing as well!!). I can not recommend Kristen enough.
Kristen was absolutely amazing! We did a destination wedding which can be challenging when getting your vendors on the same page, but Kristen was always responsive, super flexible with our budget and planning, and produced the most amazing photos for our big day. She did an engagement shoot for us a few months before the wedding which was super nice to get to know her and make our meeting on the wedding day even more smooth. She is incredibly professional, got all of our photos super quick, and I would 100% recommend hiring her for your special day!
Kristen was an absolute delight to work with!! Our engagement and wedding pictures are timeless—the perfect blend of romance, polish, and authenticity. Beyond delivering amazingly beautiful photos, Kristen also provided a wonderful client experience with industry-leading service excellence and professionalism (not to mention genuine kindness!). From timely responses to personalized consultations to nothing-but-calming vibes on the big day, Kristen curated a truly painless and personable photography experience for us. Without a doubt, we will be using Kristen again to capture the many more chapters of our story, and we cannot recommend her highly enough!
THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
When we first got engaged, the first vendor my husband and I sought out was photography. It was so important to us to have our special day captured just as we wanted, and Kristen delivered flawlessly.
I was lucky to already have a connection with Kristen since she shot my sister's wedding the year prior, and my family was overwhelmed with of course her beautiful photography but also her professionalism, patience, and organization. Weddings are already hectic and crazy, but her demeanor was always calm which made us feel like we can truly live in the the moments we were sharing rather than rushing through the day.
Kristen provided us great advise and options for shoot locations, flexibility, and of course styling/posing tips that made it seem effortless. With a large family, we added shots that were not originally planned, and of course she accommodated without any hesitation.
We love her timeless and classic style of photography that will last a lifetime. We are so thankful for Kristen and cannot recommend her enough!
Kristen is the best! She took our engagement photos back in 2016, and when my husband and I decided to renew our vows in Las Vegas this year, I knew I had to have her capture it! Her work is stunning, and she is a wonderful person - great with communicating, sharing ideas, and just all around amazing.
Kristen was an amazing photographer from the beginning booking stages through getting our final photos back!
From the very beginning, Kristen was so helpful in helping us plan our engagement photo shoot. Las Vegas was a destination wedding for us, so we wanted the engagement shoot to be something special! She helped us do an amazing shoot on the Strip during the day were we got pictures at about 3-4 different properties and they were stunning! I am still obsessed with our pictures at the Bellagio Fountains. The guest book she created from this shoot is amazing and we have it on display at all times.
Then leading up to our wedding day, Kristen was great in helping finalize our timeline with our wedding planner and confirming our shot list.
The day of the wedding could not have been better! Kristen and Lisa were so great at capturing our day and giving us photos that we will love forever. We cannot wait to have the full wedding album and get prints to put in our home. She gave us sneak peaks so quickly after the wedding that were beautiful and the final album is ever better!
I highly recommend Kristen to any couple who is looking for skilled, professional, prompt, and kind photographer. She was the best!
Kristen was an absolute joy to work with! She captured the most beautiful moments on our wedding day and her photos came out wonderfully. She was so friendly and professional throughout the whole wedding planning process. From the beginning, she was responsive, prepared, and always had a great attitude. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer capable of capturing those special moments that make you tear up when you look back on your wedding day. We couldn't be happier with our photos!
Kristen was absolutely amazing to work with. We aren’t naturally photogenic people but she knew how to pose us and tell us what to do the whole time. You feel like you’ve known her forever. We would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her in the future :)
My husband and I are SO glad we chose Kristen for our wedding day! We loved that she offered a variety of amazing packages, and we were able to choose one that met our needs. She was very accommodating and flexible with our out-of-town schedule. From our first meeting with her for our engagement photos we felt like we had known her forever and she was very comfortable, easy, and professional to work with. Before our wedding, Kristen set up a meeting with us to discuss day of details and photo plans to ensure nothing was missed and on day of everything was executed perfectly. She even came on a property tour with us to scope out the resort for the best photo spots as we were getting married at a new venue. She understood the things we were asking for and ensured we got the photos we wanted. Her turnaround time on photos was insane! I think we got a few photo previews from our engagement shoot and wedding day within 24-48 hours after the day!! The engagement photos may have even been the same night. We actually probably held her up as when we received all our digital wedding photos we were not expecting to have them so quickly and also couldn’t decide what photos we wanted in our album as they were all SO good! Anyways, after we gave her our selections for photos for our album, we quickly received the MOST GORGEOUS wedding album ever. I was expecting it to be nice, but this was beyond anything I was expecting. The quality of our wedding album is well worth her prices and something we will cherish forever. Long story short, we would highly recommend Kristen and her team 100000%. We are honored she was our wedding photographer.
Kristen was absolutely amazing and we couldn't be happier with our wedding photos. Her skills by far exceeded our expectations and we are so grateful to have found such an amazing photographer to capture our special day. I only cried once on my wedding day and that was seeing the teaser photos of our wedding - they were so much more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Kristen is amazing, her work is flawless and I wish I lived in Nevada so I could have many more photo sessions with her. We couldn't thank you enough Kristen.
What can i say, Kristen is really one of a kind photographer. Not only she is beautiful inside and out, she is the absolute the sweetest and she just puts her mind and her heart in her work thats why the pictures she captures is truly something you always re-live every time you look at it. I keep crying on the pictures she took because it’s something you don’t want to forget. Her work is truly amazing!! Ive been recommending her to all my friends getting married in the future. Look no other! Kristen is made for Wedding photos. She knows the details!! Can’t thank her enough!!!!
Kristen was amazing to work with. She did a fantastic job on our engagement photos. She captured everything we wanted on our wedding day. She had great communication and even provided us with some teasers the next day! Highly Recommend!
Kristen was incredible to work with and I will recommend her to everyone! Not only was she super professional, calm, and always happy, her photographs were beautiful - which is really important! Kristen (and her assistance Lacey!) was able to encourage both my husband and I to get great photographs, while still making the process feel natural. She had tricks on how to get natural smiles, which can be helpful under all the pressure of your big day. The teaser photos that she sent out (quickly!) after the wedding were breathtaking and I couldn't wait to see the rest. Plus, she finished getting all the photos done within two weeks - much faster than I expected! Overall, again - I highly recommend Kristen for your day. You won't regret it!
WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER with our photos!!!!!!
Kristen did an unbelievable job capturing the best moments of the best day of our lives.
Kristen, thank you so much for all you’ve done from the initial meeting to delivering the final wedding album, we are so grateful.
We 1000% recommend Kristen's services to anyone and everyone!
We truly loved working with Kristen! She made our photos so easy and fun. Our engagement and wedding photos came out so beautiful and airy! Just what we wanted- classic and timeless.
My husband and I were so happy we chose Kristen to capture our most memorable moments! In the package we chose we were also able to get an engagement shoot in before our wedding which made us more comfortable on our wedding day! Kristen guided us on how to pose which was really awesome 😃
Kristen is the absolute best! She fully understands the wants and needs of her clients and she DELIVERS! She finds your angles, makes you feel confident, and transforms the space around you into the perfect background every time. When we got our engagement and wedding photos back, we were both in shock at how beautiful every single photo was. I cannot say enough about how perfectly she captured every thing about us as a couple. Kristen is patient and encouraging and helps you along the way. We’ve had so much fun getting to know her over the past year and a half and will definitely continue utilizing her services as we build our family. We love you Kristen! Highly, highly recommend!
PICTURE PERFECT. Honestly, it's not enough to describe Kristen's photos of our engagement and wedding. I've been following Kristen's instagram for a little over a year. Her immaculate lighting and bright photos attracted me. It's the exact look that my husband and I were looking for a fairytale wedding. Finding the right photographer is like dating and we all hit it off during our zoom meeting. She helped talk to us about how much time to book for our wedding, helped with the decision of the engagement shoot location/timing, and just got to know us. The engagement shoot was a breeze. Kristen made us feel comfortable, especially my husband who freezes in front of the camera. She's great for couples who need some direction and made us feel/look natural. I asked for a huge favor from Kristen and her team for the wedding. I found out I was pregnant a few days prior to the big day. I kept the secret from my husband and wanted the surprise to be his wedding present. I stuffed teddy bear booties and my pregnancy test in his gift box. I asked if Kristen could capture the precious moment of his reaction. When he opened his present, I facetimed his groomsmen to see his reaction as well. I only imagined her and her team to be in his room, but she was also in my room snapping pictures of mine and my bridesmaids' reactions. Such a pleasant surprise. The picture results were phenomenal. Each emotion, each tear, each smile, captured. First look, ceremony, and reception, snapshot into beautiful photos. I love my photos. Every. Single. One of them. If I could create canvases of each one, I would. The quality of photos are absolutely fantastic. I constantly relive my special day when I look at my photos and I know you will too. Kristen is amazing and you will not regret booking with her!
Kristen is the BEST!! you guys I can’t even tell you how thankful I am that we hired Kristen for our special day. From the second we booked, she was helping us choose engagement photo locations, what to wear, etc. When the time came for the engagement photos, she was so easy going and fun to be around. She directed us flawlessly and made everything seem just like we were on a date together. My husband even said it felt like we were just hanging out with a friend!
On the wedding day, she was cool calm and collected. She even helped me zip my wedding dress when my mom was having issues!
She was so sweet working with all of our family ( 8 total parents) and entire bridal party in the Las Vegas heat! Her patience is definitely unmatched.
This is just everything in addition to the absolutely STUNNING photos she takes. Her editing is so light, airy, and happy - exactly like her personality!
Oh and the best part is that she sends some teaser photos literally the next day to hold you over! I was able to order my thank you notes the next day with one of the beautiful photos.
You can tell she loves what she does and that she is so happy and excited to be a part of your wedding. She is incredible - HIRE HER TODAY!!!
SOO happy i chose Kristen to take our wedding photos. She was so kind, professional, and was very responsive. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and at ease. So many of our friends and family commented on how much they enjoyed her at our wedding. The photos came out stunning. Couldn't recommend her enough!
The absolute best photographer!
My husband and I met with Kristen to chat about photography in early 2020 when we were planning our wedding. From the start she as so professional. Responsive, on time, prepared and always came to every meeting with the most positive attitude! Our engagement session was wonderful. She really took the time to invest in us for (over) an hour and she was so great with poses and making sure every photo had a purpose.
Like most couples- we had to change our plans for the actual wedding due to COVID-19. Even then, she worked with us in making sure we had our very own private session where I got to wear my wedding dress for the first time and my husband got to wear his suite. Again, she was absolutely wonderful during this as well. She treated us like royalty and it seemed like it was our actual wedding day.
Last, but not least, the photos are AMAZING. Her eye is outstanding. The way she finds the perfect poses in the perfect lighting is why she is so good at what she does. The photos will definitely be on canvas frames around the house! It's no wonder she has such great reviews! We loved every minute of having Kristen part of our journey - can't recommend her enough. :)
Kristen was absolutely amazing as our wedding photographer. She was so knowledgeable, professional and exceptionally timely every step of the way, from our engagement shoot to our wedding day. She helped us with our timeline for the day and made sure we got shots of every detail. Her style of photography is soft and romantic, which is exactly what we wanted for our wedding photos. Several friends have commented that our photos look like they could be printed in a wedding magazine! That was all Kristen. I cannot recommend her enough. She even selected the photos and created our wedding album for us, which turned out stunning. She really captured all of the feelings and special moments perfectly.
Kristen was an amazing photographer! She photographed our small elopement and was so warm and kind and made us feel at ease the whole time. And, when we got the photos we were blown away! They exceeded our expectations and we will cherish them forever.
Kristen took the engagement pictures and wedding pictures for me and my husband! We picked Kristen because she met every box that my husband and I were looking for when it come to our wedding photographer. We loved how bright and vibrant her pictures look. They are truly timeless! Not only are her pictures amazing but she is amazing to work with! She made my husband and I feel so comfortable while we were taking our engagements and wedding pictures! We were so thrilled when we got our wedding pictures back that we cannot stop looking at them! We can't wait to have Kristen take more pictures for us in the future!
Stop, no need to keep looking for a Wedding photographer cause Kristen is your girl! I can't express enough how much we love of all the images I received from Kristen, including the engagement shoot. My husbands remark was "WOW, she did an incredible job!!" Kristen has the BEST personality, is very easy going, and gives great direction on poses to capture the love of you and your partner. She even accommodated my request of coming to our home and photographing us and our cats!!! Her images are bright, vibrant, timeless and her turn around is quite fast!! Trust me when I tell you, you will be happy to have chosen her for your special day or frankly any special occasion. We love her!
We hired Kristen to shoot our September 2020 wedding and were so lucky to work with her. She brings a level of professionalism and enthusiasm to her photography that is truly top notch. She communicated with us throughout the entire wedding planning process to provide guidance on timelines and preparation. And best of all, she brings a great energy to her shoots and her photography is stunning. I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in the Las Vegas area.
Kristen was excellent in her communication, punctuality, creativity and flexibility. On a whim, my wife (then fiancé) and I wanted to do a small wedding despite pandemic cancellations. We managed to find Kristen's contact information and reached out within 48 hours of our event. She was very responsive and supportive. She met us at the location and time planned and was very helpful in making our impromptu wedding a success.
Looking back, my wife has said on multiple occasions, that getting Kristen was the second best decision of the day (the best was saying yes to getting married). She would have regretted not getting a professional photographer for the occasion, and Kristen made the memories last.
We have been extremely happy with the outcome of the images and sentiment captured. They are a representation of us and the special day we shared. If I had the opportunity, I would definitely recommend Kristen and her services or use them myself again.
We organized our wedding in February on relatively short notice and are *so happy* with our decision to hire Kristen as our photographer. We honestly did not look any further after meeting her because not only are her photographs stellar, but Kristen is organized, easy-going, and super kind.
Because Kristen grew up in Las Vegas, she has incredibly valuable insights on the venues and vendors in the area, and this made her stand out completely from the other photographers. Having just moved to the area we were happy for her suggestions (including our makeup artist, the venue for our engagement photos, etc.) and ended up not only with amazing photographs, but amazing Las Vegas experiences.
Having Kristen and her husband at our wedding was like having a pair of really good friends with us from the beginning to the end. Kristen was especially great at accommodating all of our extra family that jumped in for our formal photographs. Looking back at our photos, they were able to catch some great shots of the night that I don’t even remember because of how quickly the day went by.
We would not hesitate to hire Kristen again! Right now you have a million details to work out for your wedding, let this be the easiest decision you make.
Engagement Shoot.
I loved working with Kristen! She is so sweet, amazing, and makes the process very comfortable. She worked with us as we rescheduled multiple times due to the pandemic and quarantine, I was so grateful to her and for her patience. Our photos are so beautiful, we didn't know what to do or expect but her direction and vision for our photos turned out so well. she really knows how to bring out couples best features. I highly recommend her.
From start to finish, Kristen was undeniably amazing! Despite being as busy as she is, she always found time to respond to our texts/emails in a timely fashion and even preemptively contacted us regarding important details/events. Unfortunately, we had to change our wedding date and Kristen was super flexible and helpful with that as well. Photographs were absolutely gorgeous and we were extremely happy with our decision with choosing Kristen. Exceptional professionalism and service from an extraordinary person, would definitely recommend Kristen to anyone for their photographic needs!
When my fiancé and I decided we wanted to elope in Las Vegas, the first thing we started to look for was a photographer. After reviewing the top photographers on different wedding sites, we were set on hiring Kristen as our wedding photographer.
I was somewhat nervous about getting pictures professionally taken because I had never done it before (we didn’t even do engagement photos). Luckily, Kristen was extremely professional and made the whole process really fun and easy, and made all of my nerves subside.
Kristen was able to provide some teaser photos to us the following morning, and was able to do a very quick turn around on all of the photos in about 2 weeks. The quality of the photos turned out excellent and they were exactly as we expected based on what we saw from her portfolio.
Something I did not realize when we first started planning our wedding was that most hotels on the strip “force” you to use their photography company if you do not also have your reception at their property. We got married at the Bellagio (no reception, obviously, because we eloped) and we were able to negotiate with them to allow Kristen on site. If you are looking into one of these hotels for your ceremony, and having Kristen as your photographer is important to you, let the venue know and they should be happy to accommodate you for a small fee.
Kristen Marie Wedding + Portraits was PHENOMENAL! Well worth every penny. My husband hates pictures normally and she was able to bring out the best in both of us and made us feel so comfortable. I couldn’t find any picture that I didn’t LOVE. My guests complimented Kristen and Loved the pictures!!! I feel like she captured every special moment... brought me to tears. Thank you Kristen! Best day of my life and I have it to look at over and over again!
I have loved working with Kristen! She is so fun and I am so thankful that we had her to capture our special day. Since first photographing with her during our engagement shoot, she made my husband and I comfortable being in front of the camera, which was huge for us! She made all of the posing effortless and the results were absolutely stunning! I couldn’t have been happier. Kristen really got to know us and what we liked, and that showed. She brought out our silly and romantic side!
Kristen and her husband were everything we could ask for in a wedding photographer. We ended up with her by winning a free engagement session at a wedding expo. We booked her the day of the shoot before even seeing the photos. We got there late because of traffic and spent some time hiding in a building from the rain. She stayed with us extra even though she could have cut us off at the original time to make sure we had everything we wanted. At the wedding they were kind a patient with us and our big family. We got sooo many compliments afterwards about how kind and sweet our photographers were. We love our engagement and wedding photos more than I ever expected to. She captured the day perfectly. We will be using her for our upcoming maternity photos as well!
Honestly, look no further. Kristen is incredibly talented and detail-oriented. Along with capturing all the details of our wedding, she delivered breathtaking photos of our families, fun photos of our friends, and overall made all of our guests look stunning and captured the essence and genuine emotion of the day. She was incredibly responsive throughout the planning process, straightforward about time and pricing, and happy to accommodate our preferences and requests. She also gave me great advice about my wedding, was totally reliable, fun to be around, and capable of managing our large families and guests and kept everything relaxed and running on-time. (She was also the very first person to arrive on the wedding day, even though she had scoped and planned the layout of photography weeks before. Amazing.) She charmed my parents and friends, which is not an easy task! We love our wedding photos and HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kristen! Hire her. You'll be in great hands.
Kristen came recommended to me and I did not do much research prior to meeting with her to discuss shooting our wedding. As soon as we met her we both knew she was the photographer we wanted (and needed).
Hiring Kristen was the best decision we made. For one, she is the sweetest person you will ever meet and for two she goes way beyond taking incredible pictures. She acted as a friend, wedding planner, and photographer on our special day. Having here there with both me and my husband brought such an amazing addition to our day. Neither of us felt like she was a vendor, but an invited guest!
If you are looking for a photographer to take amazing pictures, but also go above and beyond.. hire Kristen you will not regret it! Her work and personality is wroth every penny you will spend!
LOVE LOVE LOVE my wedding images!!! Kristen did an amazing job and I cannot recommend her more!! I traveled to Las Vegas from St. Louis, MO and she was more than accommodating! She made me feel so at ease having never met her before my wedding day. She was always quick to respond to my emails and had great ideas for our shoot. My entire wedding party raved about her and how quick she was able to work (it was hot hot hot!) all while staying professional and producing GORGEOUS images. I cannot stress this enough, if you are looking for the perfect photographer contact Kristen!
I cannot say enough good things about Kristen! When we met with Kristen, she made me feel so comfortable and excited. She listened and provided her expertise without overshadowing my needs and wants. Our engagement session was fun, silly, and the photos were beautiful. My family still talks about those photos. Then, the wedding. Wow! She captured the most amazing memories. She’s a true professional, a talented person, and above all, fun and inviting!
We found this perfect photographer for our quick elopement to Vegas and outstanding would be an understatement! She guided us through what we thought would be an awkward silent photo session into one of the coolest and most memorable experiences of our ceremony. She is a true professional in every sense! The images she captured of our day and our families is something truly special and absolutely priceless. BOOK HER NOW.
Kristen is amazing! From the second I met her in person to the last second of our experience, she was professional, timely with responses and her work is outstanding. I highly recommend using her and it helps that she is also just a kind-hearted person in general.
Kristen and her husband were so easy to work with. We felt so comfortable taking photos with them. Every single photo was beautiful. We received over 900 images and they are absolutely spectacular in every way. Every meeting and email we had was done so timely and she was able to create a great photo timeline for the wedding. We will always recommend her and her husband.
From the day that I decided on Kristen as my photographer I was very happy with her. She called me and made me feel great with everything even though I was all the way in Seattle. I love that she included an engagement session so that we could get to know her before the actual wedding. The pictures from that session turned out amazing!!
As for my wedding pictures I could not be happier with how everything went. She took over and I loved not having to think about what pictures I wanted, she was on top of it for sure!
If you want someone who is greatly experienced and will lead you though the pictures on your wedding day I would definitely recommend Kristen. Even during our meetings before the wedding she was so organized it put me at ease.
I can’t wait to use her (and her husband who is the 2nd camera man)for future vegas visits!

Kristen is a rockstar, a sweetheart and a real pro! When we first reached out to her we were already blown away by how easy it was to communicate with her, and how informative and helpful she was. We really enjoyed working with her (Kristen's the nicest!), and absolutely LOVE our wedding album! So happy we got Kristen Marie as our wedding photographer. It was the best choice we could make for our special day!
I cannot say enough great things about Kristen, and we couldn't have chosen a more perfect photographer for our wedding! We were both somewhat nervous about being in front of the camera for "staged" photos, but within the first few minutes of our engagement photo shoot, Kristen had made us feel so relaxed and comfortable that all of our nerves went away completely. Kristen was so sweet and helpful throughout the whole wedding process, and so easy to work with. It was such a pleasure working with both her and Anthony on our wedding day, and our pictures turned out incredible! You can truly see the passion Kristen has for her work come through in her photos.
Kristen was wonderful from the moment we met her at the Revere open house. She is very responsive, easy to talk to, and on-top of everything needed to make the photographs perfect. My husband and I very much enjoyed working with her and Anthony and would recommend them in a heartbeat. She is quick to send the teaser photos and the entire set of wedding and engagement photos too.
Kristen is truly the best. Not only does she take beautiful photos, she's kind and a pleasure to work with. She was a great help in ensuring both our engagement and wedding photos would be everything we were hoping for and then some :)
Kristen was amazing to work with! She is very detailed, organized, and passionate about what she does. She is a true professional and we could not have asked for a better photographer!
When I say that I could not ask for a more amazing photographer to have captured the most important times in our lives, I mean it with all my heart! Kristen Hansen is so personable, fun, and makes you feel so comfortable! Meeting with her I knew she was gonna be the one we would choose! She did absolutely amazing with our engagement shoo, that I could not wait for our wedding day! On our wedding day she made us feel so special and you could not even tell her and her fiancé were there capturing all of our stunning moments! I also love that she takes into consideration that we are wanting to see our pictures ASAP so she gives you a sneak peak of some of your wedding pictures shortly after your wedding day to share, then when she is done editing all of your picture she makes a video for you to share too! Which shows how much she takes into consideration how excited we are to see these pictures and how much we want to share them with our people! I have absolutely NOTHING bad to say! She is amazing and I will be hiring her for more shoots in the future!
Kristen was an absolute delight to work with and we are incredibly happy with the photos that she and Anthony took. Kristen is professional, knowledgeable and just "gets it." Her leadership skills and experience really set the tone of what everyone should expect leading up to the wedding, and she was flexible and dependable despite the curveballs throughout the big day. She came highly recommended from another professional in the industry and we made sure to lock her in more than 18 months in advance (so don't dawdle)! Aside from her professionalism and artistic eye, she is an amazing person. Kristen radiates kindness and beauty both inside and out, and in her work. Her big heart and all-encompassing support made her as much a part of our wedding day as our closest friends and family. We cannot imagine having entrusted anyone else to capture the most beautiful moments of our day (which she did) and are eternally grateful to Kristen and Anthony!
