Laura Christin Photography

need on your dream team. She knows exactly what's necessary for a successful capturing of your dream day. She's prepared in the planning process with great questions to get to know you and your loved ones, she follows up when she says she will, she assures you when you didn't know you needed assured, and she's your bestie when you didn't know you needed one. I just cant event tell you how important she was to our special day. On our day of our event stress levels got high with random oddities and she was there, calm, collected, and insanely flexible. Thank you Laura, and for those of you curious if you should hire her? Don't you dare pass up this awesome friendor, she's exactly who you need!

call about my vision for my wedding. She is so sweet, and absolutely thorough in knowing exactly what your expectations are, and how she can deliver the best results. Our engagement session was actually fun (when my husband and I were anticipating it to be awkward!), and it’s reflected in our pictures. She went above and beyond for our wedding, helping me create a detailed photo schedule that we finished early the day of the wedding, so my husband and I got to enjoy our guests more. She researched my venue, found little secret spots throughout the property, and our photos are over the moon fantastic as a result. We felt like we asked our friend to take our photos instead of hiring someone to be our photographer. You will not be disappointed in hiring Laura to capture your most important memories.

an old friend. Laura takes the time to get to know you as a couple, and as individuals, so she can bring the best out in you. She always has a smile on her face, and her cheerfulness helps to put you at ease, even if you don't like being in front of the camera. She communicates well - super responsive to emails and messages, and is very detail oriented. In the end, her photos truly speak for themselves. She also did our engagement photos, which we used for our invitations and some decor at both wedding showers and the reception itself. We've already received some preview/sneak peeks at photos from our big day and we can't wait to get the rest! All our family and friends who have seen them have raved about the photos, and also about how organized and kind she was during our wedding. We are so thankful our wedding planners (White Lace Events & Design) connected us with her. She is someone we will continue to go back to again and again for any of our future photography needs, and we'll happily refer her to anyone and everyone looking for a photographer!

professional, knowledgeable at what she does, responsive at any time and this package deal comes with a really competitive price! Being a girl herself, she knows the drill during shooting for some small details, such as how to position bride's hair or the bride's fake eyelashes are falling a bit etc (lol this happened to me). Laura will do anything to create a perfect photo. On the night of our wedding day, we were allowed to use some sparklers. She was running around us and waving sparklers in order to get the perfect night shots! The wedding photos we got are incredible!! I literally cried over those photos and relived our wedding day! Everyone said her work is amazing! Trust me, you will get the timeless wedding photos from Laura! Look no further!

e! Laura made our day go by so smoothly. She made sure to understand all the dynamics of both sides of our family, and she planned out the day to accommodate all of our wishes. We got married at the Prado, and she selected the best spots to capture the beauty and architecture of the venue. Her photographs were beyond amazing, and she captured all of the beautiful moments throughout our wedding. Moreover, she captured all of the special, little moments that we had when I thought no one was looking. It was so fun to go through the pictures, and I was touched at how she captured all of these special moments. I can't recommend her enough. What a phenomenal photographer and a great person!

, it was really important to find someone professional that I could feel at ease with. Laura was such a joy to be around and she made my fiance and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Between her diligent and timely emails to her joyful candor during our session, we really couldn't have asked for more! We just got back our photos today and I couldn't be more in love! They are so artistic and beautifully composed. I can only wish we were getting married in CA so that we could use her amazing talent again for our wedding!

sent us a surprise care package to tide us over until our pictures were ready. Laura is a true professional and made everything go very smoothly - she captured the life and feeling of our event, and also took the loveliest formal portraits of us. We love her fun but elegant style, and could not recommend her highly enough. She captured our event perfectly!

he gives hugs :D). My first meeting with her I just knew that she was the one I wanted to capture such a special day. Laura not only showed me her portfolio but the process she uses to capture such special moments! She also recently met with me at the venue and we were able to look around and talk about some of the places we wanted to use for pictures. I love how organized and on top of things she is, I can't wait to see all of the amazing moments she captures from my day! 5/6 Laura did such an amazing job! She was on top of everything and in just seeing the preview shots, I know all of our pictures will be AMAZING! I cannot wait to see all that she captured from our special day!

ors we felt we could trust and that we "clicked" with, since it would be hard to hover over them. We met with Laura about 6 months before the wedding date. She was able to meet with us at the zoo, so we could point out the location for the ceremony and reception. As soon as we met her, she announced the time the sun would set on our wedding day, which really impressed my groom. She was really comfortable for us to be around, and she brought a few books of her work so we could get a feel for her photographic style. After we hired her, she was kind enough to meet with us again at the zoo, where we walked around to get an idea of good locations for photo ops. Every time I interacted with her before the wedding, she was always very excited for us, and very willing to answer any questions I threw at her (including make-up advice for photos). The day of the wedding, she arrived early, and was able to take charge of the situation so she could get what she needed without being intrusive or bossy. We had her provide a second photographer that was with the boys while they got ready and they said only great things about them (and apparently they got a few tux tips as well). She coordinated out first look, and then she and out videographer were good sports adn trooped around the zoo with us taking pictures with all of their equipment. She had a list of all the family photos we had requested, and was able to accomodate last-minute requests. Our guests commented that she was very professional, getting every possible picture, but that she was also very polite and efficient - so no one was posing for minutes on end. For all of our pictures, she was constantly looking for different opportunities, so our wedding album won't be full of the same shot and the same pose. She was very detail oriented without making myself or anyone else anxious or stressed and was able to multi-task and think several steps ahead so nothing was missed. We compared several photographers, and her prices were very comparable to what we were finding. we would recommend her highly!

Photography is a MUST! My wife and I began researching and meeting with photographers 6-8 months prior to our wedding. We first met with Laura at our venue in Carlsbad. She was sure to get there early to familiarize herself with the venue, which I found quite impressive. We had previously e-mailed Laura with details, such as date and time of ceremony. When we met in person, as I mentioned above, not only was she there early to familiarize herself with the property, but she had taken the time to research the time the sun would set on our wedding day so as to suggest time frames and locations for the perfect photo opportunities. Upon meeting with Laura, it was obvious that she was the right choice! Not only is she extremely talented, personable, and very well organized, she has a gift for making everyone feel so comfortable. Our engagement photo session was so much fun and on our wedding day, during the ceremony and reception she was able to capture so many priceless moments and do so without even being noticed. I can't imagine having had our wedding photographed by anyone other than Laura Christin Photography!

feel completely at ease during our formals. When we received the photos (very quickly I must add!) it was like I was reliving the day all over again. She even captured moments I wasn't even aware of during our wedding day with so much going on in a short amount of time. And the packaging she sends the photos in is so nice. I am so happy and grateful to have these exceptionally beautiful photographs to cherish our wedding day for the rest of our lives. She made us all look so amazing and captured all the emotions of the day perfectly. Laura, we can't thank you enough! Do not hesitate to hire this girl, she is the best!

, passion for her work, and ability to capture the most special moments in photographs. We'll never forget that she was even prepared with the exact time of sunset on the day of our wedding (so we knew how much sunlight was left for pictures after the ceremony). We had no doubt that she was the person to help capture our big day. Laura continued to exceed all of our expectations and go above and beyond. She was very responsive to any questions we had along the way, helped with a lot of coordination on the day of the wedding (which was essential to staying on a tight timeline), and delivered our edited wedding pictures in less than a month. There is one particular posed picture that I remember Laura said might feel weird, but would actually be beautiful - we trusted her and it actually turned out to be one of my favorite pictures. Not only is she extremely talented, but she is wonderful to work with and fit in perfectly with all of our guests, young and old. We are forever grateful to Laura for priceless pictures of a very memorable day and would highly recommend her to any of our friends or family.

tradition when taking pictures. Even though I had hired a wedding planner, dj, and site coordinator... Laura truly did it all. Laura is AMAZING. The one day that is the most important to you is just as important to Laura. My pictures came out amazing. She is everything I wanted and more in a photographer. I am the most pickiest person in the world. I am super organized and have attention to detail, so I have a hard time withe expecting others to have the same skill set. But Laura by passed me and made "The Most Important Day in My Life, the Absolute Best". I can't thank you enough for being their for me. I know that you are going to be nothing but the best and most wanted photographer in San Diego. WOW....Wow...wow....!!! My family and friends love you and everyone is so happy with the turn out of your work of art!

recommended to me by my wedding planner (Bliss Events, also amazing!) and after looking at her website I decided to hire her. Just having returned from my honeymoon, I cannot stop looking at the photos. I didn't think it was possible to capture the extraordinary feeling of the night, but Laura did it, magnificently. Her photos are not only stunning, but truly represent the magic of the event. There are photos of beautiful details that I never even got to see in the excitement of the moment, and I am incredibly grateful to her for her hard work and talent; we now have gorgeous memories to relive that momentous day forever!!!

derful she is. She's friendly, punctual, works well with the many personalities in the wedding party/family, and took BEAUTIFUL shots. I told her I didn't own a single photo of my grandfather looking at the camera and lo and behold she managed to take several! She made sure to keep the guys on schedule, laughed with my crazy family members, was SUPER patient with me when it took FOREVER for me to choose which photos I wanted in my photo album, and gave me hundreds of shots of my favorite day that are all frame-worthy. She even wrote a sweet blog article about our wedding (as she does for all of her weddings) where she mentioned the little nuances of my husband and I that really showed me how in tune she was and how much she just LOVES doing what she does. Whatever your budget, she will work with you. Just a wonderful person and wonderful photographer.

y professional, meticulous in gathering all the details she needs to get every shot you want, and she’s an exceptionally nice person. At our wedding, she was flawless—she captured every precious moment and had such a gracious way of getting people together for the various group photos we wanted. Laura helped to make our wedding absolutely perfect, and because of her beautiful photographs, we’ll never forget how magical it was, and how we looked when we first saw each other on that blissful day. I’ll share the recommendation (from Elaine at Sweet Cheeks Bakery) that caused me to call Laura: ‘If you can get Laura Christin, that’s who you want. She’s the best.” How right Elaine was! Thank you, Elaine, Thank you, Laura! We couldn’t be happier.

of everyone! I will treasure her beautiful images forever. She is so easy to work with, incredibly sweet, and genuinely loves weddings. I felt so confident having her in charge of capturing all those important memories. All that... AND she is fairly priced. You don't meet many people like that anymore. Thank you Laura! Katie Sumner

ble, thorough, and had such a great personality! Also, her cost is extremely affordable, I could not find any other photographers who offered the same services for anywhere near her price! One of my favorite features of her package was the inclusion of electronic images of all our pictures.

table in front of a camera and avoid getting my picture taken. Laura knew how to put me at ease in front of the camera, I don't even remember her taking a majority of the photos in my wedding album! She really captured the moment in every picture and added her own style that I loved. She used the lighting at the venue to capture some remarkable first dance pictures and also took great candid shots of friends and family throughout the night. My pictures were mailed to me less than 2 weeks after my wedding, normally brides don't get their pictures for months. Laura was definitely my favorite vendor, she is a pleasure to work with, knows what she is doing and does an excellent job.

organized and knowledgable. She made us feel at ease and confident that we'd end up with the perfect wedding pictures - which we did. Her and her assistant didn't miss any of the wedding action, have a ton of candid shots of our guests as well. Couldn't be happier!

gagement and wedding sessions. The photos turned out beautiful, and were done in a timely fashion. As a bonus, the packaging she shipped them in was super cute! My favorite vendor from our wedding. :)

ure that she could get all of the pictures in while it was still light outside. Her pictures were absolutely beautiful and she didn't balk at dealing with my crazy family. I did a lot of research and for what she is including in her packages, as well as the amazing quality of her photos, she is Soooo reasonable. We LOVE our photos! She has really good ideas, and is SUPER helpful!

She is very professional taking great photographs you'll love for a life time. She's so friendly you everyone feels like she's a guest/family friend. She's brilliant at capturing on the fly photos. She's practically invisible with how much she moves around to capture different angles, views, and just great shots. I highly recommend Laura Christin Photography and will use her for any upcoming life moments I wish to have captured by her skills! Thanks for everything Laura!!!!

totally awesome! Very high quality, so many7 different shot types, and all the family ones we wanted plus more! The only reason I have to give her 4 stars on value is because her print cost is fairly high. But in terms of her photographs and their quality - fantastic! I'd recommend her to anyone, and suggest a second shooter and a book (if you can afford it). You won't be sorry!

verly aggressive, but gets the job done efficiently and quickly. For the price, she is an absolute steal and I would recommend her to anyone looking for great modern pictures.
