Kristen is an amazing photographer. I took maternity photos with her in my 3rd trimester and needless to say I was tired and not feeling beautiful but she made everything so easy. She set me up with hair and makeup and she had a full wardrobe for me. During our consultation we discussed what I liked so I didnt have to worry about anything. I showed up, they made my beauty shine and I have beautiful pictures and art. We also did newborn pictures. She was fantastic with my baby who was just a week old. She took so many wonderful pictures and is very professional. Very high quality work and you get your photos and artwork in a very timely manner. She has great communication via emails and text. She really just makes the whole process easy during such a busy time in your life. I cant wait to do our 6 month milestone pictures!

I have had so much a wonderful experience with Kristen and her team. I have taken both maternity photos as well as my newborn photos with her and am definitely looking forward to our next session. It can be difficult to know if you are making the right decision on a good photographer that you are trusting to capture this new journey of your life. I can’t say this enough - go with La Vie Photography!! Not only is Kristen profession, honest and great with her work, she pays special attention to details and is very accommodating to her patrons. Hair & make up is not even a problem, bc she can provide that to you as well. (Really convenient!!) I cry almost every time I look at my baby’s precious photos, they are just that good. I’m finding myself constantly singing Kristen’s praises. I’m not going anywhere else for another photo session!

I am a very detail oriented person, and I really enjoyed working with Kristen on my maternity session. I have been wanting to do maternity photos for a long time so I had done my research on the type of style and mood I wanted to convey. I definitely had high expectations, and Kristen met them for sure. My photos turned out lovely, and I will likely return for more!

I highly recommend booking with La Vie Photography not only have I received plenty of compliments on my photos but the experience itself was amazing! I was in my third trimester when a previous photographer canceled on me last minute. As I was already stressed Kristen booked a maternal session with me last minute and everything came out great! Not only did she make sure to meet my needs she was extremely professional and kind. I cant thank her enough for how everything turned out.

Words cannot express just how amazing our experience with Kristen at La Vie has been. Kristen did both my maternity and my son’s newborn photos. Both times I was impressed with her creative direction and professionalism, particularly during this pandemic where she upheld excellent cleanliness standards and ensured our comfort. Our albums and artwork are truly beautiful - we will cherish them for many years to come. This is not your ordinary maternity and newborn photographer - her service and products are high quality and I can say it was money well spent!

Top three things I am so glad I invested in during pregnancy: prenatal massages, body pillow, and my maternity photoshoot!! First of all, the pictures came out amazing. I dont know how she does it, but Kristen does an amazing job making you feel beautiful during pregnancy (a time when I felt so exhausted, sweaty, and frumpy). My husband and I love being able to look at the photos and remember that it was also such a magical time. Second of all, it was so easy! She had so many gowns and wraps to choose from in the studio. Plus she helped set me up with someone do to my hair and makeup that came to the studio (less running around for me thank goodness). Third, she helps make the session so personalized. At the consultation you get to go over your preferences and shell give you ideas as well. I also got to bring in my own items that made the photos even more special to my husband and I. Kristen is really the best and I am so glad we found her. We will cherish our photos forever.

Kristen is amazing! She not only has done my maternity but my newborn and will also do our other milestone photo shoots. She not only cares about her shots but is more importantly cares about her clients 100%. She makes sure visions and comfort are in place before lifting a camera and I love it. I cannot wait to work with her more.

Kristen is a hard working dedicated photographer. It is obvious she is passionate about her work and cares about presentation. Not only is her work the best but she is very informative and wants to make sure her clients are comfortable. Also, she was easy to get a hold of through email.We enjoyed our maternity session with Kristen. She made us feel comfortable and prepared us by letting us know what to wear and bring and even provided my outfits so I didnt have to stress about that. We listened to her and our pictures exceeded our expectations. I cant wait to display them in our new home! She really knows how to capture images that are touching and personal.

She is blessed with a true gift when it comes to babies. Kristen has such a gentle and calm touch with them and a ton on patience.

Kristen listened to every detail that I wanted for my maternity shoot. She methodically thought out all the details prior to my shoot and had all the outfits picked out perfectly. She made me feel so comfortable and confident. My husband joined me in some of the photos and he had a great experience as well. Her work is outstanding nothing but pure perfection!

La Vie photography is the best for maternity and newborn photos! Kristen did such an amazing job with my sessions in 2017 that I had to return for my maternity photos with her again in 2019! I’m so excited to see what she puts together for our upcoming newborn session! She is the sweetest and is very talented!

We had so much fun at our maternity session! Kristens selection of dresses were so beautiful! I felt so comfortable during the whole session. Kristen was able to even get amazing shots with my 2 year old, who can be hard to work with since she is your typical adventurous toddler. But Kristen was very patient and worked very well with her! The whole shoot was an amazing experience! Thank you so much for capturing this beautiful time in our lives. I cant wait for our newborn session ♥

Working with Kristen was an absolute pleasure! I’ve used many photographers in the past and by far she was the one who put me most at ease and made me feel beautiful and celebrated in my maternity photos. And her work is absolutely stunning art. We will definitely be using her in the future.

Kristen is an amazingly talented photographer. She made me feel 100% comfortable in front of the camera and because of that we got amazing pictures!

Kristen is AMAZING!!!! My newborn was being a bit difficult but that did not prevent Kristen from capturing beautiful images of the baby! She as well included my toddler and the whole family. We fell in love with all the images and again we were amazed with how beautiful everything came out. I recommend her 100% if you are looking for gorgeous, classy and amazing photos!

Kristen with La Vie creates truly beautiful works of art. She is able to capture the amazing beauty in pregnancy and babies. We initially only booked a meternity and newborn session but were so happy decided to add 6 month and 1 year sessions as well. She is very professional and made us feel comfortable. It is obvious she loves babies and takes great care while photographing them. I am so happy I chose La Vie photography.

Kristen excels at her craft. Her energy is the perfect level to prompt a baby to be comfortable and smile. We engaged her services for a newborn session and couldnt wait to engage her again for a 6 month session. These times are priceless and she captures them with such artistry. She has a wonderful eye and rapport with babies. Highly recommended.

Review №27

We were understandably anxious about who we should entrust with our sons one year pics ... he is only going to be one once, right? We were absolutely thrilled with our choice. La Vie went above and beyond and captured his first birthday in a way that we will always be thankful for. Kristen is incredibly professional and simply as good as they get. If you want to capture an event or milestone that is important to you La Vie Photography is the place for you. We will definitely be back.

Kristen was amazing. I loved how she held my son while she wrapped him up before his pictures. She moved with caution and care. The temperature, lights, noise, and transitions were perfect and considerate. My baby did not cry once or wake up. The pictures were amazing and ordering was very smooth as well.

When I met with Kristen the first time, I immediately knew I wanted her to do my maternity and newborn pictures. She made me feel extremely comfortable during my maternity session, and she was great with my little one during his session. I appreciated that she has an array of outfits and props to make my session perfect. Her work speaks for itself, worth every penny! I will recommend her over and over as I feel she is the best!

Even while under the weather, Kristen took such patience and care with our daughter throughout the entirety of the photo shoot. The consultation she provides is invaluable and the ability to simply sit back and watch the photographer’s magic happen as a new mom is something you don’t realize how much it is needed. Needless to say our images are stunning!

We love working with Kristen with La Vie Photography! She captured great photos of both of our children from birth through their first year on and created some beautiful family photos. She was great with ideas for color schemes and themes when we had none and was great at taking ideas we did have and making them come to life. She is patient with both children and parents and understands how important capturing the right photo is to a growing family. Thank you Kristen for all the memories!

She and her assistant were gentle and careful with my daughter, making a new mom feel at ease. Our pictures turned out beautifully!

Review №33

I highly recommend Kristen. Before the shoot, she asked questions such as our color scheme, our nursery etc. to get know us better. She is a perfectionist and you will see it in her work. Once I had the opportunity to view the newborn pictures, she just blew my mind. We are so pleased with her work that we are considering of using her again in the future.

Kristen was absolutely amazing for our newborn session! She was completely hands on as repeatedly soothed our little guy in order to capture the most beautiful pictures! Not only was her studio cozy and warm for the baby but she also has the perfect set up with many outfits and prop options! I was very happy to have been able to work with such an experienced photographer and I look forward to her work in the future.

The hardest thing with working with Kristen is not buying every shot she takes. We are always so pleased and wish we had more wall space to just fill our entire home with these photos. Perfect in every way every time. Highly recommended, you wont regret it!

Wife and I brought our newborn here recently and could not have been more pleased. Kristen went the extra mile in every aspect from not only the amazing shots, but just the little details: like having snacks and coffee, or even the nice presentation of the photos at the end on the big screen. The experience aloe was definitely five-star

Kristen is awesome!! She took all my suggestions and came up with wonderful sessions for both my daughter and I. She captured the beauty of my pregnancy wonderfully and made me feel pretty and comfortable. She was so patient and gentle with our little wiggle worm and got excellent shots that we will cherish forever. My husband and I are so pleased with her work and professionalism and we will continue to use her for other family portraits in the future. If you are looking for quality photos to share with your family for years to come I highly recommend La Vie photography!

Kristen is a very sweet and warm individual who is truly a gifted photographer. Her passion for her craft is evident in her attention to detail and her commitment to capture her clients vision ( all while incorporating her artistry) She was extremely professional and did an amazing and beautiful job with my daughters first year portraits. I definitely plan to use her services again in the future. I only wish I would have found her sooner to do my maternity and newborn portraits.

Review №42

My experience with la vie photography was phenomenal! While I was pregnant I was really looking for a photographer who photographed soft, not over photoshopped pictures with touches of glam in a studio and I found it with Kristen! From the beginning at her consultation I was in awe with the pictures she has hanging at her studio and all the herloom albums that show her amazing work. Apart from that a huge plus was that she supplies clothing as well as main props. Her studio is very clean and has a great atmosphere to it, you can really tell that this is Kristen’s passion and she puts so much time into her work to come out with amazing products. Moving on to my shoot I gave her ideas and examples of pictures that I wanted to recreate or be similar to and she put her own twist to it. She really made my vision come true at the shoot! The final products of my prints were to die for and I’m obsessed with, even months later! She really captured my pregnancy as well as myself in a beautiful way! I truly loved the overall experience that I just had to come back for my newborn shoot and I know she’ll do justice to my baby girl as she did for me! In the future I’ll be back again, because after meeting Kristen I don’t want anyone else photographing my next pregnancies or babies❤️ Kristen overall she’s an amazing person apart from being an expert behind the camera. She’s sweet and really understanding and I truly appreciate the hard work she puts into her sessions because you can really see the time and effort spent before, during, and after a shoot! If you’re contemplating on choosing la vie photography and someone else the choice is simple and you won’t regret it, la vie photography is the right choice to make!

Happy Valentines day to all ..well i dont really post anything cause i dont do social media, but i felt i had to on this ocassion.i would have put more stars but truth be told there still wouldnt be enough because WOW!!!! Just an incredible expierience I can safely say and Im sure every other one of Kristens customers would agree, she is the best new born photographer in houston probly in Texas . She took pictures of our son Eden and he was 4 months old and she still made him look as a week old, shes amazing she was so gentle with him he slept through the whole session, I think he slept more in her arms than when he was brought home from hospital, the pics were my husbands idea, am I glad i Iistened to him and did it, since I dont like going to pic studios, but this is one decision i will never regret, she is so creative and professional she works hard to get the perfect shot and she gets it . She also worked her little heart out to get me the pics before Christmas as I was going to give hubby as his present and she delivered, my husband had tears in his eyes from how beautiful the pictures came out, i will defendantly be using her in the future, any mamas out there ready to have your baby or planning to have one do yourself a favor, dont look else were go to la vie photography you wont regret it. Thank you Kristen for making this expierience so amazing and for sharing your gift with the world😊
