I am so glad you are here! I can't wait to get to know you! :)
I am married to my high school sweetheart, a US Marine. I am SO inspired by my own family, by love and joy, and I am forever thankful I get to capture that for you!
In order to capture YOU, you need to feel comfortable!
I personally promise to make you feel comfortable and I promise we will have a blast!
About
"The best things in life are not things, but memories."
The style of my work is timeless and true to life, true to color, and true to emotion.
I love celebrating the beauty of YOU and the beauty of the world. I believe in creating art that will never become outdated.
GET TO KNOW KARISSA
BUT HERE'S THE THING... What fills my heart the most is the everyday life and just being grateful for each day we get to be together.
I always want to remind my couples what truly matters -- Your marriage, not just your wedding day.
I want to GET TO KNOW you! coffee DATE? :)
We love life and want to live it to the fullest! We love the outdoors, traveling, adventuring, laughing...
SO passionate about seeing my couples have FOREVER marriages!
a little bit about me and my heart as a wedding photographer...
I know how it feels to search and search for a photographer...
So overwhelming am I right!?
Well take a deep breath because I got you boo!
Being a wedding photographer is so much more to me than just showing up and taking pictures. We are going to become BFFs, have the best time and remember what really matters!

Investment
A professional photographer is an investment because you are paying for your memories for the rest of your life. I believe that is incredibly special and that is why I take my job so seriously. Though I am very laid back, I care about you and your memories SO much.
The average KLP couple invests $2600 for their wedding.
SESSIONS BEGIN AT $350.
Here's the thing. If you really resonate with me / my style/ my values and appreciate my work, I want to work with you! I understand budgets, so please reach out and give me as much information as possible so I can serve you the best I can!
I create custom quotes for each couple, because each day is so unique...
I love elopements, small weddings, and big celebrations that go all night long! :)

Reviews

"Karissa will capture the personalities and relationships of whoever she is photographing perfectly. She makes the experience so much fun and comfortable. After a very negative engagement picture experience with a different photographer, I was completely heartbroken over the fact that I may never get the photos that captured me and my fiance together during this special time of our lives. Karissa saved the day and actually brought me to tears when I received the photos from our session with her. Cannot recommend Karissa enough!"

"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, and each photo she took shows NOTHING out of place. SHE'S A MIRACLE WORKER! I cannot tell you how good she made us look! Karissa is kind, hardworking, fun, and so talented!"
Kayla & Noah
"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."
