If you're here, chances are you're thinking through the details — choosing the right photographer, imagining your session, and wanting images that truly feel like you.
Photography is more than a collection of pictures.
It’s how your memories are preserved, your milestones honored, and your story remembered long after the moment has passed.
This page is designed to walk you through the investment and the experience, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
It is truly an honor to be considered as your photographer.
Your Story, Beautifully Told
My approach is rooted in intention, connection, and artistry. Each session is thoughtfully guided and crafted to create images that feel natural, timeless, and deeply personal.
These are not simply photographs for today — they are heirlooms for the years ahead.
THE EXPERIENCE
lets capture what matters most
From wardrobe coordination to color palette refinement, I provide direction designed to create a cohesive, timeless look — ensuring your images feel polished, natural, and beautifully aligned.
Thoughtful Styling Guidance
I curate my calendar carefully and every session comes with a backup date incase the weather isn't cooperative.
Weather-Flexible Scheduling
With years of experience photographing families, seniors, maternity, and couples, sessions are intentionally guided using a natural blend of posing and prompts — creating imagery that feels effortless, connected, and authentic. My goal is to preserve the connection and moments that matter most.
Guided & Refined Experience
Your time is valuable. Every step of the process — from booking to questionnaires — is thoughtfully designed to be clear, simple, and purposeful, supporting a smooth and enjoyable experience.
Streamlined Communication
Professional prints and heirloom products are available through a personalized ordering appointment, allowing you to transform your images into tangible keepsakes designed to be enjoyed for years to come.

OPTIONAL
Below you’ll find the investment details, thoughtfully structured to keep your experience simple, transparent, and beautifully curated.
Portrait sessions are currently booking June through December.
Your portraits are created to live beyond the screen.
Each full portrait session includes a reserved reschedule date, thoughtfully held to protect your experience.
In Florida, “unfavorable weather” typically refers to heavy rain, lightning, thunder, or severe storm conditions. Overcast skies, passing clouds, and light scattered showers are not considered limitations and often create beautifully soft, flattering light.
Should weather conditions require adjustment, every effort will be made to proceed as planned whenever possible. If necessary, rescheduling will always be arranged prior to cancellation, ensuring your session is never rushed or compromised.

THE PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE
She made us feel comfortable and relaxed, so we got some great natural expressions. Our photos turned out amazing and were beautifully and minimally edited with a natural enhancement of tone and colors! Highly recommend Kristi for an Anna Maria Island beach photo session!!
“Kristi was the perfect photographer for our family beach photos.”
Saw her page on Instagram and was amazed by her work & I can gladly say she did not disappoint!!! She was super sweet and made the session so fun!!!
“amazed by her work!”
We had the best time, I wanted photos to show off my staff and office remodel. Couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommended Kristi
“highly recommend!”
We came all the way down from Lafayette, Indiana to have our family pictures done by Kristi… best decision!! She was so amazing and sweet with my family. She went above and beyond what I expected in a photographer. In the past we have had other photographers take our family pictures done, with Kristi it was a first but our first favorite photographer photo experience ever! Please move to Lafayette Kristi. 😄… if we ever come back down to Anna Maria area we will definitely be using Kristi again in the future. Thank you Kristi for your time and professionalism!
“She went above and beyond!”
She was very communicative from the start and the session was friendly and comfortable so that we were put at ease. We loved all of our pictures and would highly recommend her in the future.
“We had a wonderful experience with Kristi!”
We used her for two photo shoots in 2022 and recommended her to other family members. She is creative, inspirational, flexible, and fun to work with. She works overtime to get the finished photographs to you and the quality is outstanding. If you are looking for a photographer, I would highly recommend Kristi.
“We love Kristi!”
