I am photographing weddings in North Florida and Georgia now. Have you recently noticed i’ve been posting some wedding photos and thought, hey what’s up with that, I didn’t know she photographed weddings? Well, honestly, I was starting to photograph weddings in Seattle, but when we moved I held off on starting that side of the business here. No longer am I holding off though. I have and will be taking on wedding clients going forward!

Why did I decide to do Weddings again?

Well, I love them. I love all things weddings and I always have. I love the flowers, and music choices, dresses, and personalities, and of course love. I veered away from doing them when we first moved because it’s a lot of work. Between finding jobs, housing, and settling the kids to a new home. Then having another baby, I knew I didn’t have the time or energy to put into photographing a wedding and giving my clients everything they deserved.

Now that we are settled, I knew it was time to expand what I was working on. I started taking wedding clients again about a year ago and am excited for the weddings coming up this year.

What adding weddings looks like for the rest of my business

If you have been following me on my instagram or facebook for awhile you have probably noticed I primarily photograph high school seniors, newborns, and families. So what will this do for the rest of my business? Nothing! I will still photograph all the above categories as well. A lot of photographers specialize in one area or another, and truth be told, I like photographing a variety of everything. It keeps me fresh and keeps me from getting bored. I could never give up a senior session or a newborn, because I love photographing those. Families are just as important to me to capture the interactions and relationships between my clients.

An Elopement

Last month, I photographed my first elopement. Brandi and Ryan are such a sweet couple and their vows made me cry behind my camera! They also made the officiant cry. They are so sweet and their love is really true. I was so happy to be there to document their wedding day.

They have been together for several years and engaged for three. They finally decided to elope and get married and the day fit their personalities and their relationship perfectly. I couldn’t be more thankful for being invited into their day to document their wedding. Check out some of my favorites from their day!

Do you know someone engaged? Send them my way!

You just finished your junior year of high school. It’s your last summer break before entering your senior year of high school and subsequently going to college or entering the work force. This is the time to make memories. This is the time to spend with friends. This is the time to save money for college (trust me on this one). Now what?

Preserve your Memories with Senior Photos

On location senior photography is relatively new and I hope the trend stays around! When I was in high school we went to the local studio and took some cheesy senior photos. Of course I loved them back then, but they didn’t tell my story. No one can look at them and say, this is Kristin, she was a swimmer, she cherished her friendships, she enjoyed swimming, kids, piano, and volunteer work. I look at them and say, why am I wearing blue fur around my shoulders?

Lets do something different! When you book your senior photos with me, I will send you a quetsionairre, I want to get to know you. Lets tell your story. Who are you, where are you going. What are your hobbies, who are your friends and what do your friendships look like? Lets do your session somewhere you love to be. Lets include the people you never want to forget.

Football player? Cheerleader? Soccer? Swimming? Basketball? Wear your jersey or uniform. Lets preserve that memory. Already know what school you are going to? Grab a school tshirt and lets take a photo. Wear your school colors, wear your favorite outfit, go to your favorite places.

The Right Time to Take Senior Portraits

THIS is the right time. This summer, right now. Senior year will get crazy, you’ll have so much to do to prepare for your departure into the “real world” lets make sure we create the session you are envisioning now so we can put all our effort into it. This is called a senior portrait experience. And I want to make sure when you look back at your senior portraits, you have fond memories of your time in high school. SO LET’S DO THIS!

Check out some of these sweet friends at the beach. They are both life guards so the beach was fitting for them.
