About
I have 17 years of wedding, event, and portraiture photography experience. I have photographed thousands of events over the years. I also adore shooting creative modeling, boudoir, and curating destination shooting adventures. I have some experience with real estate and occasionally work with artists documenting projects and installations.
I thrive in a fast paced environment and while I tend to be introverted I'm comfortable helping carry events through the moments that are photo opp worthy. I'd say clients usually would describe me as down to earth and personable. Your comfort, energy and enjoyment of the process is important to me.
I prefer to let my photography speak for itself. But please check out my reviews!
I have recently relocated from Houston, Tx, to Harrison, Arkansas! I'm excited to photograph some Ozark Mountain weddings!

I can't say enough about Christy and her partner photographer!! From the beautiful engagement photos to the attention to detail on the day of the wedding they were truly amazing...!!!! Not only were they professional but they made me laugh and relax when I was feeling nervous. I plan on using them again and am planning on a future Boudoir photo shoot sometime early next year with Christy. - Much Love, Renee

We were able to find Christy thru Thumbtack and we are happy we did. She was very patient, professional and communicated with us throughout the whole process. Our engagement and wedding pictures came out beautiful! We would highly recommend her.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW!!! Christy is so professional and takes beautiful, phenomenal pictures. During my consultation with Christy, she answered all my questions and brought an album for me to view. I took one look at the album and begged her to photograph my wedding. My wedding took place in Galveston on the beach. Christy photographed my wedding and my reception/dance. She arrived on time to my hotel and began taking photos right away.
I was impressed with Christy's unique artistic style and approachable demeanor. Her pictures are so clear and she puts a lot of emphasis on color. She captured key moments in my wedding and made me look beautiful.
I HIGHLY recommend Christy for any wedding, whether it is inside or outside. She is AMAZING!!! Her prices are reasonable and fair. Don't look any further- you found the best weddingphotographer.

We found Christy through Thumbtack and we're so glad that we did. She is very easy to work with and makes you feel comfortable throughout the entire photo shoot. We've used her for both engagement shots and wedding shots and we'll be using her for future events as well as recommending her to friends and family too! She's a great photographer and we are very happy with the results!! Thanks Christy!!

Christy was wonderful. She photographed my wedding and it couldn't have gone smoother. She was extraordinarily cooperative, took all the pictures that we wanted of the family and was open to more ideas. She was quick and efficient the whole night. She was even really great at helping me keep calm during set up. I got my photos back a month after the wedding and have over 900 beautiful images. I would definitely recommend Pidrai photography for your next event!!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I keep packages and options very simple and straightforward.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Whenever you're ready, we can meet for a consultation over a cup of coffee to discuss your needs and go over a package. At the consult you can also view photo albums. I'm traveling from the downtown area and can generally meet anywhere around the 610 Loop or Beltway before or after traffic during the week. Just let me know what works for your schedule.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have 17 years of experience in event and portrait photography.
