A True Angel Behind the Lens


I cannot express enough how grateful my husband Zack and I are for having Kristen as our wedding photographer. From our engagement shoot to multiple couple sessions and finally our big day, Kristen has consistently proven herself to be not just a talented photographer, but a true angel who goes above and beyond.

Kristen's ability to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera is unmatched. She effortlessly turned our awkward smiles into beautiful, genuine moments captured forever. Her modern-meets-moody style resonated perfectly with our vision, and her attention to detail showcased the essence of our special day.

What sets Kristen apart is not just her skill behind the lens but also her incredible personality. On the day of our wedding, she became our stress-reliever, taking on the responsibility of coordinating our large wedding party of 16 and ensuring all 250 guests were included in the shots. Kristen truly lifted the weight off our shoulders, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment.

Her affordable full-day coverage packages are a steal for the level of professionalism and dedication she brings to the table. We received over 900 photos, each telling a story and capturing the magic of our wedding day.

In short, Kristen is more than a photographer; she's a wedding day angel. If you're looking for someone to not only capture stunning moments but also make your day stress-free and memorable, Kristen is the one. We cannot recommend her enough!

Thank you, Kristen, for being the magic behind our memories.

With love,
Zack & Courtney Nancekivell

The best wedding photographer

Couldn't recommend Kristen highly enough! She is super personable, and friendly which is great because taking photos isn't always comfortable for everyone. But, she was able to put my partner at ease and capture really great photos (and candid photos) where we both not only looked great but like ourselves. She was very organized, professional and super helpful on the day of our wedding.

Excellent photographer

We LOVED having Kristen as our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos. The photos turned out beautiful and she is a wonderful person to work with as well. She is friendly and professional and makes you feel at ease, especially as someone who is not super comfortable being photographed. The photos we received are so beautiful and captured our day perfectly. Would 100% recommend her!

Absolutely amazing

Kristen is honestly a wonderful person as well as a fantastic photographer. She made us feel comfortable right away in both the engagement session and on our wedding day. She fit in so well with our wedding guests that most of them felt like she was one of them! I had no stress over the photographs because Kristen had it all under control. Thank you so much!!

Paperwork Turned Elopement

First thank goodness for Kristen. Our paper signed turned into a memorable, magical and romantic day. She had so many simple, affordable and actionable suggestions that we adopted both ourselves and with her help. She offered locations, poses (which was needed!) She made us laugh and have so much fun we barely realized we were out doing a shoot post papers. She helped with decor, she suggested we find something unique to us, which in the end are my favourite photos. She even gave us incredible advice on ways we could do our vows and looking back we are both so happy and grateful for every single beautiful idea she brought forth because as I said we initially weren't treating this as the special day it is/was. Deepest gratitude to you for all the pre, the energy and ease of the actual day and the jaw dropped, eye watering photos that came from it.

Relaxed and professional

Kristen was professional and great to work with. We had a small intimate wedding and she made it feel incredibly special and the photos are breathtaking. She kept the day organized and made sure to not miss any important photo moments.

An Unmatched Talent in the Photography Space

Kristen is an absolute talent. If you want photos that will exceeed your expectations … Kristen will deliver. My husband and I got married in a beautiful park and simple old fashioned family run hotel - with that in mind we imagined having romantic moments captured of our ceremony as well as sentimental warm family photos. Well - we got all of that and much more. Incredible candids and family moments were captured along with what looks like a photoshoot fit for Vogue! Our photos speak for themselves and all of our family and friends were amazed at the quality and creativity Kristen brought to the table.

Now are biggest challenge is selecting which pictures we should frame because we truly would frame them all. Words cannot explain how grateful we are for these photos. Eternally grateful to have selected someone so talented.

Owner/Photographer

Hey! I'm Kristen, and I'm glad you've made it here.

I'm an easy going, curly haired, european raised girl who loves anything sweet, high quality cheese, and travelling to new places. I believe that a big part of who I am, developed from my travels. I have visited 19 countries around the world, and hope that this list will only get bigger throughout my lifetime.

I am a wife, as well as a mother to a beautiful little girl and two fur babies.

I absolutely love being creative. Photograpghy is a huge creative outlet, but my home life has me getting creative in other ways too. I love a good DIY, and my favourite is getting creative in the kitchen. Food and cooking have always been a big part of my life, and I spend a lot of my free time in the kitchen.

I love people, and being social, and hope that I get the opportunity to get to know you. Thanks for stopping by!
