Kristi Williams Photography Blog bio picture

Hello!

I am a professional portrait journalist who loves my job! As a portrait journalist I tell your story with candid moments from your wedding day while also capturing the very important portraits that become the iconic images of your wedding. It truly is the best of both worlds.

Unique portraits are also my specialty. Being a portrait journalist makes your photo session a great combination of formal and cute candid moments of your family, kids or pets!

I love it when I reach the goal I set out to - that you come alive in the photo and it tells a story of your life at that moment. Happy, in love and content with the world.

Thanks for stopping by!
Kristi

winter wonderland | Willow Ridge Manor Wedding, Morrison, CO

It was a winter wonderland the day Emily and Kyle married. Thankfully, the storm had passed a couple days before, leaving behind it a beautiful white snow scape for their winter wedding. Not only was Willow Ridge Manor the perfect place to to get married, it provided a beautiful back drop to their whole day. Beauty in their nervous anticipation as they got ready. Beauty in their very first look before their ceremony. Beauty all the way to the end when they exited their wedding in Rolls Royce style. In case you haven’t yet gotten the picture I’m painting, Emily and Kyle had a beautiful winter wonderland wedding. Congratulations, you two!

waiting to see his bride for the first time…

on her way…

I love all their portraits so I had such a hard time picking just a few to share. :)

I think we have both James Bond and Tom Cruise in this photo. lol!

father/daughter dance

January 15, 2012 - 10:23 pm Lydia - gorgeous dress, ADORABLE first look pics, and you know me,i LOVE that last shot of the reception. awesome!

the perfect blend

One of the favors at Justine and Ryan’s wedding was tea bags with the slogan: the perfect blend. I would have to agree wholeheartedly with that! Justine and Ryan compliment each other perfectly. His yin to her yang. They have a confident, deep rooted love that showed all day. Their families and friends from near and far were just as committed to their love. They not only showed up for the wedding but participated in the events all day. From helping them prepare for the wedding to having a very fun filled reception at the Sundance Mountain Lodge.

Lydia Myers’ photos are tagged below. She is a great second shooter!

Another great mention is Angel Andres, Justine and Ryan’s videographer.

Justine made these cute hangers for her bridesmaids! (Lydia’s photo)

romance & love | Colorado Springs Engagement Story

Taking Amy and Zach’s engagement photos was such a pleasure. These two are so adorable together – so comfortable. They made my “job” easy! Amy is working toward being a teacher, which, as you can tell – is a job perfectly suited to her. Zach has his own company, Colorado Circus. We took advantage of Zach’s very talented skills at the end of the session to have a little fun. He made a balloon engagement ring and proposed again! :) Did I mention how much I love my job? I can’t wait to photograph Amy and Zach’s October 2012 wedding!

made for each other | Colorado Springs Engagement

Krisy and Matt are so made for each other. You can see the commitment they have for each other as they look into the other’s eyes. You can see the love they hold for each other in their embrace. You can see the kind of life they will share as they laugh together. They are made for each other.

adorable family

I was so excited to see this adorable family again this year. Last year we had a great time with a themed family session from the 1940s! Every time I see this family I am amazed at how stylish they are dressed. Mom does a great job coordinating their outfits. :)

family laughter

When I met this fun family I just knew they are a family that laughs together a lot. That’s why this photo above is my favorite from the session. The smiles and laughs they share together in just a small moment as this tells me there are many more moments like it in their lives.

 

 

family smiles

This was such an adorable Kelly’s Kids session for a cute little family – twins Adam and Luke in their matching monogramed vests, shirts and shorts and Emma in her white monogramed dress. It took Emma a few minutes to warm up but she did and what cute smiles she and her brothers have!

family love

I am blessed to be able to photography so many sweet families! This family was no exception. Older brother and sister listened so well. They were little stars. Unfortunately, their little sister didn’t last very long before it was time for a well deserved nap. We took a few of her sleeping because, asleep or awake, she’s just adorable.

sweetest sisters

I’ve had the chance to photograph Madalyn and Lauren a couple times this year. Both times it has been so obvious the love these sweet sisters have for each other. They adore each other. Lauren looks up to Madalyn. And Madalyn loves to be a good big sister. They are the sweetest sisters.

(Also another Kelly’s Kids session!)

fashionistas

Lauren and Emily were little fashionistas for our mini-Kelly’s Kid session. Very adorable, cute and stylish outfits well thought out by mom. I do have the say the leggings were my idea – but mom took it and ran with it. I LOVE these outfits!

(just an fyi in case you’re wondering – some but not all of these clothes are Kelly’s Kids)
