wedding photography

wedding photos that help you remember what it felt like to be there, together.

Your truth is more than enough.

I believe that a wedding day is full of its own once-in-a-lifetime chemistry: a magic mix of people, place, and time that will never be the same again.

On this day especially, your love deserves to be embraced and celebrated as it is. No posing, no staging, no “just doing it for the photos.” Your day deserves to be photographed beautifully, in a way that feels candid and natural.

I am your witness and your advocate. I want to know what matters to you both about this journey and this day and why, and who is in the crowd that you couldn’t live without. I’m here to see the truth of your story in the way that it matters to you both so that when you look at your photos 50 years from now, it all comes rushing back to you.

I celebrate and welcome people, partners, and families of all kinds, colors, religions, and abilities.

who you are

  1. you want to remember the candid, unscripted moments of your wedding day
  2. you care deeply about the people you're gathering together
  3. you want to remember what it felt like on your wedding day, not just what it looked like

  5. you want to celebrate everyone's presence, and care about being present
  6. you want photos of your day that document the seen and the unseen
  7. you're planning a wedding or elopment that reflects you and your beloved in your own unique ways

Kristyn is beyond amazing, and we could not recommend her highly enough. I was pretty nervous about picking the right wedding photographer for us, and with how awkward I feel getting photos taken, I was worried I’d end up with a big set of photos in which I looked uncomfortable and unnatural. Kristyn came recommended by a trusted friend, and once we looked through her website and talked with her for the first time, I knew she was the right photographer for our wedding. On the day of our wedding, Kristyn and her incredible teammate made us feel super comfortable, handled a lot of logistics to make the day run smoothly, and helped us keep the focus on our relationship and marriage in a really special way (which is easier said than done with so much going on that day!). After receiving our wedding photos, we could not be happier. Kristyn and Michele captured the whole wedding in breathtaking detail, documenting all of our many guests, and taking our favorite photos of us of all time. They got shots of tons of things we missed, and they seemingly were everywhere all at once, while also being completely in the background. If you want beautiful photos without making your whole day about taking posed portraits, and you want an authentic representation of what the day was (and more importantly, how it felt), Kristyn is the photographer for you, too.

Kristyn did an incredible job as our wedding photographer. My wife and I were nervous about having our pictures taken and being the center of attention, but Kristyn was so flexible and laid back and really put us at ease throughout. She is a great communicator and was quick to respond to our questions in the lead-up to the big day. On the actual wedding day, she was so organized and got all of the group photos we wanted but also was amazing at blending in and capturing the special candid moments. We got back our gallery from her and love every single photo she took! Overall, Kristyn is so pleasant to work with and I highly recommend her as your photographer for your next event.

Kristyn is a wonderful photographer and an even better person. She photographed our wedding in October of last year, and while we live across the country from her, planning and working with her was such a pleasant experience. She is warm and has the most positive and calm energy you could ask for on your wedding day. I can’t tell you how many of our guests came away from the wedding saying “Your photographer was so awesome.” We truly can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking to work with someone who is going to capture the energy and feel of your whole wedding/event/family, Kristyn is your person.

We absolutely cannot say enough good things about Kristyn. She photographed our engagement session on a freezing cold February afternoon, and once we saw those photos, we knew our wedding pictures would be absolutely incredible she surpassed our every expectation when we got our wedding gallery back a few weeks ago. She managed to capture our magical day in all its cold & occasionally disorganized glory– we kept commenting to each other that the photos are beautiful and also feel REAL, which was so important to us. There are a few candid photos, including one of my two remaining grandparents, that make me laugh/cry every time I see them. On top of being tremendously talented, Kristyn is warm, thoughtful, easy to work with, extremely funny, & made us, our family & friends feel completely at ease. You will not regret hiring her — we’re honestly tempted to throw a fancy anniversary party next year just to get more amazing pictures!!

Kristyn was truly wonderful to work with and her photos are stunning! Her professionalism, responsiveness, and the quality of her work were a constant bright spot during our wedding planning process. Kristyn was extremely personable and a calming presence, and it was apparent from our very first meeting that she was intent on learning what was important to you. We engaged Kristyn for photos of our wedding and our pre-wedding welcome dinner, and are thrilled with the quality of her photos of two very different atmospheres. She not only captured everything we were hoping for – the funny, candid, and small moments of us and our loved ones – beautifully, but she also carried herself in a way that complemented the overall vibe of each event and put guests at ease. We and our guests could not be happier. She is fantastic and we highly recommend her.

Working with Kristyn was an absolute pleasure! She took spectacular photos of our wedding and was wonderful from start to finish. She took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for in capturing our special day – and was so accommodating as one of our parents has special medical needs. We previously had a photo session for our engagement with another photographer which was awkward and unnatural – and the photos showed it. Not Kristyn! The gorgeous photos speak to how at ease she made us feel through the whole process.

Kristyn was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. My husband and I were immediately drawn to Kristyn’s positive, authentic energy during the planning process. We felt a little awkward about having professional photos taken, as I’m sure many do, but Kristyn’s style is truly special – she captures moments, not poses. Every single photo is so full of feeling. It was pouring rain on our wedding day, but Kristyn still pulled off incredible photos while going above and beyond to bring positive vibes and be a calming presence. Kristyn is not only an insanely talented photographer but an amazing human being – grateful she was a part of our big day.

Kristyn was an absolute joy to work with. From our first call, we knew that she understood what we wanted and that she’d capture the most beautiful photos. We were not disappointed. We we thought about our photos we wanted them to capture the joy, love, and celebration that we knew we’d feel on the day. We didn’t want staged photos that needed to be set up multiple times (think groomsmen tying and untying ties just to get a photo). Kristyn delivered beyond what we could have hoped for. We’re so grateful that these are what we get to keep with us for the rest of our lives.

Kristyn was exceptional! We loved working with her, she had a great attitude, was go with the flow but provided enough direction to ensure we got all the pics we wanted. I think it’s really important to not only choose a photographer whose work you admire but someone who feels like a friend! They will be with you during your most intimate moments, on the most important day of your life. Kristyn delivered across the board!! LOVE HER!

I absolutely LOVED working with Kristyn. Not only was she my number one champion focusing on all of the things we talked about, she also made me feel completely at ease on our wedding day. Kristyn caught all of the little moments on our wedding day which is exactly what I wanted, and I’m so lucky to have documented for the rest of my life. I wouldn’t dream about working with anyone else on your wedding day or any special moment you want to be captured. Kristyn’s attention to detail for each moment will make your images feel warm, and personal, and one of a kind. I’m so grateful to have found Kristyn and I would love to work with her again for future once-in-a-lifetime memories.

let's chat about your plans

What to expect

  • 01.

    We chat and make it official. We’ll schedule a call to get to know each other a bit and be sure that my style and approach align with your vision for your photos.  I offer a range of coverage options for weddings of all shapes and sizes, from a teeny elopement for 2 at that favorite neighborhood bar to weekend-long destination wedding celebrations for 200+. Your date is held with a signed contract and a 30% deposit.

  • 02.

    We start planning. I take a limited number of couples each year so I can really get to know you and what matters to you ahead of your day. In the months before your wedding, we’ll have a few video chats, meet for a beverage or a meal, and you’ll answer a couple of painless questionnaires that will help me with the details I need to fully prepare to witness your day. If we’re taking engagement photos together, we’ll find a date and a location soon after you book so you’ve got the photos you need for save-the-dates. I’m here for anything you need through the process and I’ll coordinate with any of your vendors as needed as well.

  • 03.

    You remember this magic day forever. Your final images will be lovingly hand-edited and ready for you 6-8 weeks after your wedding. They will be delivered via an online gallery, and this is when we’ll talk about your album. You can download and keep all the photos that I deliver, print them whenever and wherever (I can help with that!) and share them with your wedding guests too.

Do you shoot elopements and micro-weddings?

Absolutely! Drop me a line below to get started.

Do you photograph all kinds of couples?

Most definitely! Love is love is love. I’m here to celebrate you and yours, and I’d be glad to introduce you to my favorite vendors who will do the same, and then some.

Will we have printing rights to our images?

Absolutely. The hi-res images I share in your engagement and/or wedding gallery are yours to keep and use and love forever.

Can you shoot family portraits, even though they aren't as candid?

Definitely. While I don’t share these images on my site, I’m happy to shoot them on a wedding day! I’m an efficiency ninja when it comes to family and group photos - we’ll work together to make that process as painless as possible, and get everyone back to the party still smiling in no time!

Do you photoshop?

My goal is to make space for you and your loves to feel comfortable and at ease during our time together, so your honest selves shine through. I don't head swap or photoshop – because I really believe you (and your loves) are gorgeous just as you are! The editing I do is more about making sure skin tones look as lovely as they do in real life and ensuring the textures of your wedding day settings really come alive.

Do you shoot with a second photographer?

I shoot most of my client's weddings solo, but can easily bring on a trusted, battle-tested colleague if the logistics of the day require an extra set of hands and eyes.

What are your COVID protocols?

I'm fully vaxxed + boosted. Don't hesitate to ask if you have specific health or safety-related questions in preparation for your session.

Will you travel for my wedding?

Yes, I'd love to! Weddings outside of Fairfield county may require a flat fee depending on location, and NYC weddings require a flat $250 fee. Otherwise, a flat rate of $1000 is applied to weddings that require domestic travel and at least one overnight stay. International travel fees are available on inquiry.

I'm ready to hire you! What's next?

Awesome! I can't wait to chat about your day and your story. Submit an inquiry form via the link below – we'll confirm my availability first (I'm currently booking through 2024) and go from there.
