That's what continues to drive me today.
My role is to create an atmosphere where you feel at ease, where you can be fully present, and where the love and energy of your day unfold naturally. The result? Thoughtful, elevated, and soulful imagery that reflects not only how those moments looked but how it felt.
Beyond weddings, I keep life lighthearted. I love to laugh, I'm a little sassy, a granddaddy's girl at heart, and a devoted dog mom to my German Shepherd mix, Harley, and my dachshund, Nash.
I didn't grow up with a camera glued to my hands or dreaming of wedding photography. But I've always been an artist. More than a decade ago, everything clicked, and photography became more than just a passion - it became a purpose.
During my final year of earning my Bachelors in photography, I curated a senior showcase that changed the way I saw my work. One of my favorite images was of my great grandmother - fierce, loving, and the heart of our family. It became one of the last portraits we have of her, not as a goodbye, but as a reflection of the woman we'll always love and remember. That moment taught me that photography is more than just pretty images - it is preserving moments that will live well beyond the day they're captured.

“It was extremely hard to select our favorite pictures to print and frame, as we loved them all, and have gotten so many compliments on both our engagement and wedding pictures! From first contact, Crystal went above and beyond to communicate with us and exceeded our expectations. We can't wait to have her shoot more of our life as it unfolds!”

"She loves what she does and it shows in her work. Not only is her work amazing, she is amazing and absolutely precious. Don’t look any further! Crystal will be everything you never knew you needed and more!"
