Some facts about me:

Your Fun-Loving Family and Maternity Photographer

Hey, I'm Kristi!

I am so excited you're here!  Aside from my life as a mama of two littles and wife to my amazing husband, I am an artist at my core.  Truthfully, it took a while for me to find my way back to the artist's path, but now that I am on it (7 years and counting!), I will never go back!

  • Have delivered over 10,000 photographs
  • University of Pittsburgh alum (class of 2012!)
  • Bachelor's Degree in Psychology - specialized in Neurodiversity in children and adults for my first career
  • Forever bragging about my husband's work as a Pediatric Oncology nurse
  • Sucker for a good crime drama/mystery
  • In love with Shaken Espresso and Sweet Cream Cold Foam

I often connect with parents who treasure the innocence and playfulness of their young children.  This is the biggest "why" of my career.

As a working mom, I understand the chaotic seasons that parenthood can bring.  I love connecting with other mamas in this way.

I am an firm believer that a family is who you choose it to be!  It doesn't matter how or why you came to be a unit, but that you share special connections with one another, and want to have them documented.  Every family is unique in how they connect, express their love, and share their joy, and I think that is beautiful.

A snapshot into my life

My Favorite Things

The great debate ends here--they are called "Jimmies"--and I love them.  Truly, I love finding as many jimmy covered confections from local bakeries as possible (have you been to Sweet Somethings Desserts in Wilmington, yet?  If not, you need to!).  And if you have any recommendations for bakeries in Philly, Delco, or Delaware, I'm all ears!

Jimmies and Cake

My husband and I hiked our first mountain together on our honeymoon, and have been adventuring ever since.  Both of our littles went on their first backpacking trips before they turned one, and anywhere there is a waterfall or epic view, we are there!   It sounds super cliche, but I love seeing the excitement in my kids' eyes seeing a brand new site or location for the first time!

Ok, this one comes with a story.  I haven't always loved biking or spinning, but when our oldest learned how to ride a two-wheeler, it became quickly apparent that I needed to step up my game to keep up with him!  This little guy has ridden 26 miles at once, and asked to keep going after.  We ended up buying a Peloton (say hi! @OffDuty_Mama) so that we could ride and get in shape to keep riding with him.  

Spin Class

My love for seasonal florals is honestly a little excessive, but I don't even care.   Every spring, summer, and fall, I look forward to the different flower festivals that happen with each new bloom.  There is something so ethereal about walking through rows and rows of perfectly bloomed flowers, and I just can't get enough!
