Being a wedding photographer is so much more to me than just showing up and taking pictures. You are investing in your most important memories for the rest of your life. That is incredibly special and that is why I take my job so seriously.

I can relive every moment of our big day just by looking at Karissa's amazing photos! I cannot begin to describe the wonderful experience we had with Karissa for our engagement photos and wedding. She made us feel incredibly comfortable, which made our personalities and relationship shine in each photo (a true feat for 2 awkward people like us!) Our wedding day was a mess due to the weather, but SHE'S A MIRACLE WORKER! I cannot tell you how good she made us look! Karissa is kind, hardworking, fun, and so talented!
sweet words
from my beautiful couples
Karissa is simply amazing. She captures moments that are natural and spontaneous. Her professionalism shined through as she kept family and bridal party pictures flowing and kept us ahead of schedule. She cares for her brides and grooms and offers advice, guidance, and works with you during each step. Her passion and enthusiasm for what she does was so evident and contagious! I'm so glad we chose her to capture our special day.
sweet words
from my beautiful couples
Karissa was our dream photographer. She is so easy to work with and a joy to be around! She goes out of her way to get to know who you are and what you love! We used Karissa for both our engagement photos and wedding photos. We showed up to our engagement session and it started to down pour. Karissa was so optimistic and shot our photos while it was raining.. and of course, she made them look perfect!! Our wedding day was gorgeous. She was laidback, but also organized. She is so much fun to work with!! Her photos are raw, beautiful, and her personality shines through them! I am so thankful to have the photos Karissa took of us for a lifetime!
