Outside of photography I am a wife, a mom, scuba diver and a Starbucks lover.
My beautiful daughter Bella is three and her first three years have flown by entirely too quickly. My husband Andrew is in the U.S. Navy and we have spent almost a decade travelling the world together. I grew up in Woodstock, Georgia and to receive orders back home and be able to spend time with family and to be able to bring my business to metro Atlanta to serve all of the amazing families here in Georgia was a dream come true.
I love crafting, baking, taking walks with my dogs Liam and Lilly and spending time with my family.
am so excited you're here. I have been a photographer for almost ten years now and the thrill of capturing the stories behind the families that I meet never gets old. I always say that I have the best career in the whole world.

A snapshot into my life
I'm passionate about family and believe in the power of shared moments to create lasting bonds. Whether we're gathered in the kitchen baking delicious treats, relaxing on the beach with the soothing sound of waves, embarking on a hiking adventure with our dogs to connect with nature, enjoying quality time in front of the TV, or expressing our creativity through crafting, every moment with my loved ones is cherished. Family is the heartbeat of my life, and these shared experiences not only bring joy and laughter but also strengthen the ties that bind us.
Family
My Favorite Things
Meet the heart and soul of my world, Liam and Lily, my two golden retrievers who fill every day with boundless joy and unwavering loyalty. Liam, a golden retriever we've had since he was a tiny, fur-covered bundle of energy, has been a cherished member of our family since his puppy days. His playful spirit and gentle nature make him the perfect companion for any adventure. Lily, our rescued golden retriever, hails from the island of Guam, where she grew up as a Boonie dog before finding her forever home with us. Her resilience and sweet demeanor remind us daily of the transformative power of love. Together, Liam and Lily embody the true essence of companionship, bringing warmth, laughter, and a whole lot of wagging tails into our lives.
MY Four-LEGGED BESTIES
Dive into my world, where the underwater realm becomes a sanctuary of peace and enchantment. I'm passionate about scuba diving, a pursuit that transcends the boundaries of the everyday and transports me into a world of weightless wonder. With each descent beneath the waves, I find myself immersed in the serenity of the ocean, where time slows down, and the vibrant marine life becomes a mesmerizing spectacle. The sensation of weightlessness and the rhythmic sound of my breath create a unique harmony, making me feel like a modern-day mermaid exploring an ethereal realm. Scuba diving isn't just a hobby; it's a transformative experience that connects me to the ocean's beauty and instills a profound sense of tranquility. I love seeking adventure as I dive deep into the mysteries of the sea, discovering the magic that lies beneath the surface and embracing the serenity that comes with being a temporary resident of the underwater world.
BEING A MERMAID
Kristen made us feel right at home every step of our journey. We absolutely loved our maternity portraits and gushed over our newborn portraits. We show them off to everyone who comes into our home.
Thank you so much Kristen! These days with Jane being so little are fleeting and to be able to press the pause button and capture this time and bottle it up forever is something that I will cherish forever!
NEWBORN session
Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, we couldn't have been happier with our experience. Unfortunately, we missed out on the traditional newborn session for our COVID baby, but the milestone session exceeded our expectations and made up for it entirely. Kristen's skill and creativity shone through as they beautifully captured our baby girl. The session not only produced stunning images but also turned into a cherished moment in itself. We appreciate the flexibility and dedication of Kristen in adapting to the circumstances, ensuring that we still had a memorable and worthwhile experience during these unique times. Highly recommend Kristen and her team for their professionalism, talent, and the ability to create meaningful memories even in challenging situations.
MOMMY & ME Session
Sterling's newborn session was nothing short of fabulous. Kristen walked us through each and every step of the way. Having artwork of my family and my children together is something that I will treasure forever.
NEWBORN Session
In the tapestry of life, it's the delicate threads of fleeting moments that weave the most beautiful stories. As a newborn and family photographer, I believe that every client deserves more than just photographs—they deserve heirloom artwork that captures the essence of those precious, once-in-a-lifetime moments. Life unfolds in the blink of an eye, and within these moments lie the magic of parenthood, the tender connections of family, and the innocence of a newborn's first days. It's these fragments of time that deserve to be preserved in tangible, timeless pieces of art—crafted with care, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of the emotions embedded in each image. My goal is to create more than just photographs; I strive to provide you with heirloom pieces that will adorn your home, becoming cherished treasures passed down through generations. Because your story is unique, and it deserves to be celebrated in a way that transcends the digital screen, creating a legacy of love and connection that will be treasured for a lifetime.
