Kristin Smith Photography

I know I know, my website is FILLED with wedding photos and content, but that doesn't mean I don't dabble in general photo sessions!  When I'm not photographing weddings, I set time aside for Couples, Family, and Maternity Photography. I encourage everyone to share with me any kind of visual inspiration they may have for their upcoming photo session.

I am a FAN of vision boards! That's right, your vision board will help me visualize want you are wanting, which helps me plan out creative shots to incorporate during your photo session.

Organic, candid moments and storytelling vibes.

- Brecken and Kirsti

" It just feels like you get a friend when you hire Kristin."

"Absolute best of the best. She is super easy going and easy to work with, handled any hurdle we threw at her (and there were a lot), and her photos are beautiful. Quick turn around as well, and honestly, it just feels like you get a friend when you hire Kristin. She helped us feel comfortable for our engagement photos and helped coordinate our wedding day- always going above and beyond. Well worth the cost and then some, no need to look any further for a perfect photographer.
