beautiful weddings start here

Because you deserve the whole package, from start to finish

Kirstie was our photographer for our wedding, and I could not have been happier with my choice to hire her. I love that she included our engagement photos with our package, so we got to work with her and develop a relationship beforehand. I knew when I saw our engagement photos that I made the right choice. She is so sweet and easy to work with, she helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, always got our photos to us earlier than planned, and the end results are more beautiful than I could have imagined. Her photos speak for themselves, but I can speak to her professionalism, kindness, and passion. Because we hired her, we have gorgeous photos that will last forever.

I am not sure that 5 stars is enough. Kirstie was beyond amazing. Nick and I will forever be grateful to her and the photos that she captured of our wedding. I can't begin to explain how amazing our photos are and how happy we are. We were blessed to work with her and can't wait to watch her grow, I don't know how she could get any better though! She is a true professional and I will always know we made the best decision in the world hiring her as our photographer!

Look absolutely no further for the best photographer for your engagement and wedding day. The only thing as perfect as marrying the man of my dreams was having Kirstie as our engagement and wedding photographer. She is exceptionally talented, kind, FUN, prompt, detail oriented, and professional. Her eye for lighting, landscape, and capturing the beauty of each unique client is stunning. She responds literally within minutes to any question you send her way, and had all of our wedding photos back to us the week after our wedding. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I would recommend her to all of my closest family and friends in a heartbeat. We love you, Kirstie!!!!

Kirstie was amazing to work with from start to finish. I could not have asked for a more professional, caring, and talented photographer. I feel so blessed to have found someone that captured our day as beautiful as it was through my eyes.

The Kirstie Veatch

bride

Marriage is what excites you most, but you are totally giddy about having beautiful photos to re-live your amazing day forever!

You Love dogs

You care more about the real moments with your dear friends and family than having everything "perfect".

You rock a messy bun and yoga pants with the best of them, but also know how pull together something classic.

you love the idea of a first look

You have a grand plan for your special day! You are ready to go with the flow, but have personal touches and lots of details in mind.

Her photos speak for themselves, but I can speak to her professionalism, kindness, and passion. The advice I received before booking Kirstie was that the day comes and goes so so quickly, and when it’s over, the photos are all you have left. Because we hired her, we have gorgeous photos that will last forever.
