Kristina was absolutely incredible at my daughter’s bat mitzvah. From the moment she arrived, she was professional, calm, and completely in control — which matters a lot on a high-energy day like this. She captured everything: the big moments, the emotional ones, and all the candid shots that really tell the story of the night. Looking through the photos, you can genuinely feel the energy in the room. She didn’t just take pictures — she documented the entire experience. My daughter felt comfortable, our family felt comfortable, and Kristina somehow managed to be everywhere without ever being intrusive. The final images exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for someone who delivers both quality and professionalism, I highly recommend her. She helped preserve memories we’ll have forever.

Kristina has the best attitude and personality for events like weddings. She took charge and directed everyone which was wonderful during the chaos of family photos, but she still made it fun. When it was time for candid photos, she had no problem blending into the background and getting amazing shots of everything unfolding. She really cared about how we were doing as well as the night went on, which I thought was really sweet. I really can’t stress enough how nice she is to work with, and her work speaks for itself! Thank you again Kristina!

Kristina is amazing! She multitasks by taking photos, bustling your wedding dress, and teaching you and your guests all the dance moves to the wedding favorites. While scoping out the best shots, Kristina is also a kind support when you need it. I highly recommend her superb service!

From the start Kristina was a pleasure to work with. She arrived at my venue before me and captured so many wonderful, intimate moments at my son’s Rehearsal Dinner. I highly recommend and would no doubt hire Kristina again!

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    There are no hidden fees in my estimate. The price I quote includes all photos taken, minor editing, and access to your album online for you to download any/all photos you would like.

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    It started off as a hobby. I absolutely love taking pictures, capturing moments in life. I have been told for many years that I should be doing this professionally, so I decided it was time to share my passion with you.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Ask a lot of questions. Communication is extremely important. Ask if there are additional charges after pictures are taken, for example “will I be charged extra for pictures?” “What is included in that price?”
