Creating tangible
memories
Your photographer
Hi, I’m Krista. To put my personality into a few words, I’d say that I’m a kind, active, outdoorsy, bubbly person who lives life with a camera in hand. I’m that one friend who will always be snapping photos at every occasion because that’s how I like to remember life. My day starts with coffee and usually ends with chocolate and somewhere in-between that I’ll be galavanting around the mountains hiking, snowboarding or climbing and when the sun gods come out to play, the lake is always calling my name.
mountain girl
I’m an Aussie who fell in love with the mountains. I went to uni for photography and after I graduated I moved to Canada and fell in love with the outdoors. Being from QLD where it’s hot 24/7 l didn’t know l’d love the cold and mountains so much. So after 2 years of chasing my photo dreams there, it was time to move on and Queenstown was calling me. I knew the moment I set foot here, that I would make this place my home forever.
your story teller
NZ is my home now and I’m so grateful I get to live out my photography dreams here and that involves you. Without you, none of this is possible. So let me tell your unique and wonderful love story. I know this is a common factor between photographers but
photography is MY LIFE. I feel lucky that I’ve found that one thing in life I was truely meant to do. So let me share that passion with you. Through my photos you’ll see the experience, expertise, knowledge, an eye for detail and creative quirks shine through. And on your special day, this will be evident in your final photos. I want to make you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera to capture YOU and your personalities and your unique one of a kind your love story. I’ll be there to gently guide you if you are camera shy but I’ll also be sure to capture those candid moments when you think no one’s watching.
why me?
1. Candid moments
Capturing the in-between is harder than it may seem but this is one thing I do well. My ability to capture authentic, candid moments that truly reflect the couple’s personality is something I pride myself in. Creating a timeless visual narrative of your special day.
Testimonial from my recent couple
“You did so well to capture some amazing natural moments especially with a pair of awkward posers like us haha” – A & D

2. considerate
It may seem obvious, but this day is about YOU!!! Some photographers can turn this day into a full blown strict photoshoot and while yes we will have our moments together to capture those important details, this is also YOUR WEDDING DAY. You are there to enjoy it, be involved with your friends and family, literally having the time of your life, not feeling like you’ve spent 12 hours just on a shoot.
So I will definitely capture every single important moment but while also being discrete and considerate when appropriate. I want you to look back on this day and have these photos to bring back those feelings of love and joy, not sparking a feeling that all you did was pose.
why me?
3. open to ideas
Now as you know, this is YOUR DAY!! And I want to hear what YOU want. Tell me your craziest photo idea, share your Pinterest board, share what’s on your mind. I’m here to collaborate with you to create the most EPIC memories of a lifetime, while being true to you.
Let the weird out!
Now if you don’t have a folder full of screenshots, DON’T WORRY. Thats where I’ll come in and after getting on a catch up call beforehand and getting to know you. I’ll gently guide you and tailor poses and moments to suit your personality to make you feel confident and bring out those genuine smiles.
Creating a natural, calm
and relaxed environment
for your personalities
to shine through.
I’m a vessel to showcase your love story through photos.
