Crystal Stokes Photography

incredibly camera shy girl (me!) feel comfortable. Crystal shot our engagement photos in December and we can't stop gushing over them. The obsession is real and I can't wait to see how she makes our wedding come to life with photos that will last a lifetime!

e stumbled upon Crystal Stokes Photography. I knew the second her page opened that I wanted her to photograph our big day. I really wanted our photos to be unique and speak for themselves. Her photographs are works of art that I seriously could not stop looking at. Her love of light made each and every image distinct and I was impressed over and over again with each gallery she shared with us. Her love for what she does is evident in every piece. She was true to her word every time and had everything edited and shared with us by the dates we discussed. Working with her was like hanging out with a best friend and she made every session fun and comfortable. She knows just how to put you at ease in front of the camera with her one-liners and jovial personality. Even my husband, who isn't a fan of taking a lot of pictures (like most men), had a blast shooting with her and couldn't say enough about how impressed he was with her expertise and amazing personality. One question every vendor always asks is, "Who is your photographer?" and every single one (I kid you not) lit up when we mentioned Crystal. Each of them knew no one would be disappointed at the end of the day with her capturing every special moment and detail, and they were so right. We have been wowed time and time again with her work and could not have made a better decision. In our opinion, she is simply the best (cue Tina Turner). Crystal, you rock.

fore even booking a venue or any other vendors. That surely paid off, as our wedding photos were more beautiful than I could've imagined. Beyond that, Crystal did a great job of making us feel comfortable the entire time, which was a key factor of how the photos turned out. If you're considering Crystal, book her immediately. You, like us, will have incredible photos to look back on for a lifetime.

r photograph our wedding day! Photography was #1 on our list when planning a wedding. One reason is scrap booking and pictures have always been really important to my family and secondly pictures last forever. This being said, I had looked at photographers for months. When our venue recommended Crystal Stokes Photography I took a look with no expectations; however, I was blown away. Sometimes you see an impressive picture here or there from a photographer but every single picture I saw from her was perfect. She sent me full galleries and every image was crisp and beautiful. We had our engagements and wedding at the Laboratory Mill which Crystal has photographed there many times and I told my husband I just love that her pictures at the same venue are all so different because she truly captures the couple and everything else is just beautiful background. I was really nervous before we had our engagement pictures and kept thinking what if we don’t look good in them. After only ten minutes Crystal had busted us out of our shells due to her charismatic and fun personality. She made us feel so comfortable and had us laughing the entire photo shoot. She is truly a gifted artist with such an eye for amazing shots. Crystal really invested herself in us and even recommended a lot of vendors that we booked for our wedding day. Having Crystal as our photographer I had ZERO stress if certain pictures would get captured. She got it all and captured it beautifully! We laughed and cried and were flooded with emotions when we received our wedding pictures. They were beyond what we ever could have hoped for! She is just amazing with light and captured some breath taking magazine worthy pictures of us. She was very efficient about getting all of the traditional needed shots very quickly and at no point during the day did it feel tedious to get pictures taken. She has so much skill and is truly passionate about what she does. Crystal took the time to get to know us and captured our special day in a way that no one else could. She is just the best and will forever hold a special place in my heart for everything she did for us!
