My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Karen. She is an incredible photographer! Karen has such a great artistic eye to really make you stand out in your photos. She was really great at instructing and positioning us according to lighting and looks of each picture. I really appreciated her instructions on how to turn my head or show my baby bump since I had no idea what I was doing! Karen was punctual, very sweet and easy going. She was willing to work with our schedule and drove to the mountains on a Sunday just for us :-). I would highly recommend her to anyone! We will be using her for our future baby pictures as well. We loved her so much!
Details: Maternity portrait • Candid (captured in the moment) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • The portrait photographer travels to me

Karen did an amazing job. She found ways to capture the wedding that left us speechless. Her eye for detail and making sure the shot was just right was unparallel. We seen some of the preview of our wedding and they photos have come out better than we dreamed. We will be hiring her again for our celebration event and any other events we want to have captured with her artistic eye and amazing talent.
Details: Wedding • Fewer than 25 guests • Outdoors • Digital or online download • Flash drive

Karen helped us plan our elopement with only 72 hours notice. She gave us recommendations of location based off what our vision was and quickly starting building off that. This is the second time we have used her and would recommend her to anyone!
She is friendly, professional, and very very talented!
Everyone who has seen the sneak peeks for our wedding have been in awe of the work she did and the moments she captured.
She really brought our dreams to life and went over and beyond all of our expectations.
Details: Wedding • 25 people or fewer • Outdoors • Digital or online download • Bride or groom • $250 - $500
