Don't let time pass you by...
Family portraits are an important way to document and preserve precious memories. They capture the love and connection of a family in a way that no other photograph can. Family portraits also provide a way to look back on memories, to reminisce on past moments, and to remember the individuals in the photograph. They are a beautiful reminder of the strength and support of family, and can be cherished for generations to come.

"Kristen is simply amazing! After my Father went through cancer treatment and came out a warrior I knew I needed family portraits. Kristen captured a picture of my Father and I dancing in a field of trees and it will forever be known as my favorite picture of all time. She took amazing candids, captured emotions, and embraced the silliness we share as a family. She also set us up and had us pose to make sure we were able to have all 6 of us in photo smiling. We ordered a bunch of photos from her including a metal print which I am obsessed with along with multiple photos printed on multiple types of material (also hanging). Kristen is definitely one of a kind. These photos meant the world to me and I was beyond satisfied from start to finish.."

Hi! I'm Kristen. Here is why I love what I do!
When I designed my family portrait photography business, I centered it around creating timeless artwork rather than simply sending digital images to families. This decision was deeply influenced by a poignant experience with one of my first clients, a single dad named Shawn. Shawn, who had been battling cancer for several years, was in remission when we met. He wanted to create lasting memories with his 9-year-old son, Robert. After I explained my photography model, which focuses on turning moments into tangible art, Shawn eagerly agreed to a session. The result was a stunning large metal portrait that proudly hung in his dining room, a testament to their bond and love. This portrait now serves as a cherished reminder for Robert, a beautiful legacy from his father who passed away on May 30, 2024.
My passion for photography began in childhood, always having a camera in my hands, capturing moments with a simple disposable camera. I have photo albums and boxes full of images from my childhood, filled with memories of family and friends. This love for making people smile has driven my career and shaped my business philosophy.
Over the years, my goal has become clear: to help people of all ages know that they are a masterpiece. Whether you’re a preteen, a new mom, or starting a new chapter as a single, you matter. Your life is worth every moment to be enjoyed to the fullest. Shawn’s story reinforces the belief that we are not promised tomorrow, making it crucial to freeze those precious moments in time.

Investing in professional portraits isn't just about capturing a smile—it's about creating a legacy. It’s about giving families something they can hold onto, something that keeps the memory of their loved ones alive. This investment in creating timeless pieces of art is invaluable, offering comfort and a lasting tribute to those we cherish most. There is never a bad time to be photographed because you will never be able to relive today. So, I invite you to set up a time to see how to create heirloom artwork for your family to enjoy for years to come. Let’s make the most of every moment and create beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.
