WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY IN The SHENANDOAH valley, VIRGINIA, & BEYOND

A calm presence, from beginning to end.


Whether you're planning an intimate celebration or a full wedding day, I'll help you feel prepared, present, and free to enjoy every moment. My role is to quietly guide when needed, step back when it matters most, and create photographs that preserve both the beauty and the feeling of your day.

Thoughtful guidance.

Honest moments.

Artful Photographs.



The best photographs happen when you're fully immersed in your day, not thinking about the camera.

Kristy was amazing! She was wonderful to work with, she immediately made us feel at ease and comfortable. Even when we felt awkward posing for photos, she made us laugh and relax. Her rustic vibe and unique eye for enchanting photos was one of the reasons we chose her.

Super easy to communicate with, plan out our timeline, and work with on the day of our event!  Kristy is exactly what we wanted!

Every wedding deserves thoughtful planning, genuine connection, and photographs that stand the test of time. Each collection includes:


→ A photography experience thoughtfully tailored to your celebration

→ Planning guidance and timeline support to help your day go smoothly

→ Gentle direction when you want it, and space to simply enjoy the people around you

→ Flexible coverage designed around your priorities, not a one-size-fits-all timeline

→ Artfully edited imagery that preserves not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt

→ Heirloom albums and fine art options designed to be enjoyed for generations

 

An Intentional Experience, From Start to Finish

1. The connection call

A thoughtful conversation focused on your story, your vision for your day, and the experience you want to create. I'll guide the discussion with a few intentional questions, while leaving plenty of room for yours.

2. Book your date

 

If it feels like the right fit, you'll sign your contract and submit your retainer to officially reserve your date.

3. Plan the details

 

Together, we'll thoughtfully plan your day, from timeline guidance to the moments that matter most. My goal is to help you feel prepared, relaxed, and free to enjoy the experience.

4. Gallery delivery

 

A few days after your wedding, I'll send a preview of some favorite images to relive while I carefully craft the rest of your gallery. Full wedding galleries are delivered within four weeks, unless otherwise noted.
