About Me

Meet Kristy

Meet Kristy…

Photography has always been a huge part of my life, and my love for it only grows. With 20 years of experience, I am proud to say I am the founder of my own business and provide professional, quality work to the clients I serve.

I first picked up a camera as a child and by the time I was in high school I felt the need to pursue it so I enrolled in film photography classes. From there, I knew I found my passion and upon graduating high school, I attended Broome Community College, now SUNY Broome, where I explored that passion to develop the skills needed to earn my associate’s degree in Communications and Media Arts and was even inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. After receiving my diploma and high honors from SUNY Broome, I transferred to Buffalo State College where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts with an emphasis in Photography. While attending Buffalo State College, I had the privilege to work with several photographers in the area and successfully completed an internship at CEPA Gallery in downtown Buffalo. In 2011, I completed an entrepreneurship course through New York’s Empire State Development program where I learned and launched my own business.

From portraits to weddings, I enjoy every type of session or event I photograph, and they are all equally as important to me. Working with each client, I create a unique custom experience to create images I know they will love and cherish forever. I enjoy creating the vision my clients have by using natural landscapes as my canvas to create beautiful photographs. My commitment lies within my clients’ needs to capture the best smile,  perfect sunset or peaceful snowfall because their moment in time is what they want to cherish forever.

My biggest fan and supporter is my amazing husband, Eric, who has worked alongside me since the beginning of my photography business in 2011. As technology evolves and ideas grow, he has always encouraged me to continue learning to better serve my clients.

I am always looking forward to meeting new couples, to help them prepare for their wedding; new parents and their newborn baby to capture their first portrait; high school seniors and their parents to assist in taking senior photos; and so many other wonderful people for their different occasions. Over the years, I have met many amazing people and made several lifelong friends.

I work mostly in the Greater Binghamton area and across the Southern Tier region, but I am always excited to meet my clients in new places to better serve them and meet their photography needs. After all, new places mean new ideas, more fun and excitement!  

When I am not working, I am spending time with my family because they are everything to me. We have two beautiful kids, Colton and Paisley! We also have a variety of pets which makes our house anything but quiet and absolutely perfect.

Now you know a little bit about me, I’d love to know about you and your photography needs! Drop me a message with your story, your vision and what you are looking for. Let’s get to work to create your own, unique experience!
