About
While some photographers use man made props, I love utilizing the space around people more to help focus in on the person/business. I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, and I place a lot of importance in my relationship with people to help make those magical moments mean more! I once had an event planner tell me that when it comes to the events, its the emotions and the people... I couldn't agree more! I love being able to show people the beauty in themselves, and watching new artists and business owners see their work from a different point of view. Photography is a social art, and I love the people aspect of my job!

Working with Kristine was such a pleasure. She made my entire experience working with her from start to finish such a great experience by being so excited about our wedding with us, sharing amazing suggestions, constantly adjusting when necessary to fit my needs and so much more. She felt like family the entire time we worked together. She was very punctual, communicated everything clearly, placed my entire family at ease and made every single pose fun! We could not be happier with the quality of work she submitted back to us, literally brought us to tears how well she captured our day. Will definitely use her again in the future.

Details: Wedding • Fewer than 25 guests • Indoors • Digital or online download • CD / DVD • Flash drive

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    The most important part of my process is the series of conversations we have before your event or photo session. I want to take the time to get to know you, and get an idea of your vision!

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I am currently enrolled with the New York Institute of Photography. They are nationally accredited, and once I graduate, I will have professional certification in photography to go with my Bachelor's in Psychology.
