n the cliffs of Pt Dume, as well as our wedding day in Malibu. I couldn't be happier with how the photos came out as they were absolutely stunning! Christie helped Nathan and I to feel so at ease in front of the camera and did a great job keeping our wedding party focused and smiling on the big day. We absolutely LOVE the photos from Christie and will cherish them forever. Thank you so much for capturing these moments, and for being such a joy to work with. We couldn't be happier!

iends focused and in their places to take the photos we wanted. She had a clear vision of what we should do to get gorgeous photos, which was super helpful! Christie was also able to genuinely connect with me and my loved ones in just one day, she's a gem!

very happy with the way our photos turned out. Thank you so much Christie for working with us and capturing our special day! It truly was a pleasure working with you.
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Christie for our vow renewal back in June and we are so happy with our photos. Christie helped us feel comfortable in front of the...
camera, which is not an easy feat for two unphotogenic people like me and my husband. For the formals, she had lots of suggestions for poses, adjustments to our posture, and backgrounds to make the photos look better, which I appreciated so much. During the ceremony and reception, she photographed everything from multiple angles - I still don't know how she managed to do it by herself. Christie was proactive about getting the shots I didn't even know I wanted, such as close-ups of my rings and bouquet. She captured everything from "getting ready" to the end-of-the-night drunk dancing. Looking at her photos feels like I'm reliving the best parts of my vow renewal all over again. I'd happily hire her again.
Christie was so professional and great for my engagement photography and day of wedding. My pictures turned out so great and helped my husband and I feel comfortable. I would defin...
itely recommend her for anyone!
We hired Christie for our wedding photos, and we're so glad that we did! First and foremost, the pictures themselves came out great - high quality, beautiful on both the staged pho...
tos and the candid ones, and she got all of the groups that we had wanted to have photographed together. Secondly, she was a true professional throughout the process. She got the right people to the right places at the right times, and she got incredible photos without her presence becoming overbearing or overly-noticeable. She even went above-and-beyond in pinning my lapel, after it became apparent that nobody else knew how to do it properly. Her expertise made the wedding day far less stressful than it could have been. Highly recommend!
Christie was so amazing with helping us on our special day! We had a large wedding party and she was able to help us get everyone in line and make our day so special with our famil...
y and friends. She is so patience and we highly recommend her!!
We had the privilege of working with Christie for our COVID-friendly backyard wedding. She was able to make it happen despite having to shoot in a house vs. the traditional wedding...
venue we were supposed to have it in. We absolutely love how our pictures came out! Would definitely recommend using her for your special events.
Christie was wonderful to work with. She was super prepared as well as flexible with the thoughts and changes we threw out (during the preparation and event at the house and venue...
). She has a lovely personality and really made us enjoy things. Doing so many photos before and during such a complicated even can eat up lots of time and patience; she handled all deftly and ensured we got what we wanted (and more) without the feeling we were missing out on so many things on our very important day. Thank you Christie!!!
We had the pleasure of working with Christie for our engagement photos and our wedding day, and I cannot thank her enough! Both my husband and I tend to feel awkward in front of a ...
camera, and we honestly had no idea what we were doing or aiming for during our engagement session, and she literally trekked all over the CSUF Arboretum with us to find good spots, and kindly coached us around our awkwardness. You can literally see the progression from stiff and posed, to comfortable and happy in the photos. As a clueless bride, I didn't have a checklist of specific shots I wanted, but I knew I wanted to be able to look at our photos and see love. The photos we received were above and beyond any expectations or hopes.
For our wedding day, it was early February, a planned outdoor ceremony, and raining on and off. I was tense! Luckily Christie was always on the lookout for when the rain would stop, and guided everyone so we were able to get shots of everything. When we got the finished photos back, I couldn't see any hint of the stress or chaos. Just beautiful, perfectly preserved memories of the happiest day of my life. I will be reaching out to Christie for all of our photography needs going forward, and would recommend her to anyone wanting to truly capture their most precious memories.
