What clients and couples say about KrystaPhotos

★★★★★

We could not be happier with our wedding photos, and we loved our photographer! Christie is easygoing, fun, and helpful. Her reassuring, kind presence contributed to the day as both a hype-person and a completely competent professional. Christie managed to capture the people and personalities but also feel of the day in images that are both gorgeous and un-fussy. Even the picture-taking part of our wedding day didn't feel like a photoshoot because our photographer was such an integral part of the whole experience. It was just all of us hanging out and having fun with Christie while she took pictures, and that ease emanates from the photos. For a seven-person elopement/wedding, Christie was the perfect addition. She fit in like another friend/sister, and I can't imagine our wedding without her.

★★★★★

My husband and I had a small, intimate wedding in the Douro Valley, and Christie could not have been a more perfect photographer to capture our special day.

Christie was such a pleasure and joy to work with throughout the entire process. She was so easy to communicate with from the very first time we spoke, all the way up to our wedding date. She truly thinks of all the little details, and was even able to give us amazing recommendations for our other vendors.

Her calm energy and kind demeanour made the wedding day so enjoyable and fun. The whole process felt so natural and seamless, and she understood our vision and vibe perfectly.

We received our sneak peek photos and could not be happier with the results so far. She was able to capture so many special and heartwarming moments that bring us right back to that magical day.

Thank you so much for everything Christie! We hope to see you again soon

★★★★★

We hired Christie to be our photographer for our Welcome Dinner and Wedding Day over Zoom. We live in the U.S. and putting all of your trust in someone across the world to photograph your wedding can be intimidating. Christie exceeded our expectations. She was extremely professional, responsive over email (a key when planning a wedding in another country), and her artistic eye in our photographs brought us to tears.

★★★★★

We had hired Krysta and her camera crew to capture pictures and videos at our wedding at Praia da Azurara and at the church, all I can say was that we were beyond happy with everything, the quality & quantity of photos was immense, the communication easy and flawless, she took off a lot of stress from us with her way of working and all the wishes we expressed were translated into her work with ease. I can highly recommend

★★★★★

Christie was a wonderful part of our wedding day. She was great to communicate with and clicked in instantly with the tempo of how we wanted our wedding day to run. We had great feed back from our wedding guests, people commented on how polite she was and how well she integrated with everyone. We are also really pleased with the photos. Christie managed to use different ares of the wedding venue, rainbows and umbrellas to capture some amazing pictures. Would highly recommend booking Christie in to capture your special day.

★★★★★

As a bride who planned her Portuguese wedding without ever going to Portugal, I can say that everything was a gamble. I chose Christie because of her beautiful website, lovely photo aesthetic, and sweet nature on Zoom. It ended up being the best choice. During our wedding day, Christie was very warm and patient with us while respecting our wishes. She delivered our dream Douro wedding photos that I still obsess over every week. We are so grateful and urge you to book her for your European wedding!

★★★★★

We couldn't be happier with Christie as photographer of our wedding day. She has captured our precious and important moments in the most beautiful way.

Our friends and family were over the moon about her professionalism, the fact that she is super chill and could make everyone feel at ease. Even during our private photoshoot she made us feel comfortable. She gave clear instructions and the result is fantastic.

She made our wedding and the memories of it unforgettable. We would definitely recommend booking Christie for your special occasion.

★★★★★

We were beyond lucky to have found Christie as our wedding photographer last year, not only because we kind of booked her last minute. Mostly because she captured our wedding day in the best possible light, her photographs are simply beautiful. At no point was she a disturbance or distraction to us or our guests on the day, with her cameras she simply blended in with the celebrations. Outstanding value for the price. Highly recommended.

★★★★★

KrystaPhotos is THE best wedding and couples photographer you can find! With an eye for spotting the best photoshooting locations, tons of creativity, a warm smile and a great sense of humour, Christie made our wedding and couples photos look editorial-like, while at the same time the photoshoot was huge fun! Definitely recommend it!

★★★★★

We had a great experience with Christie. She is a talented photographer and also so friendly and easy to work with, both before, during, and after our event.

★★★★★

I am so glad I found Christie! My fiancé and I live in the States and were planning a trip to Porto when we figured we would get our engagement photos done there as well. Christie popped up after a few searches, and I am SO thankful she did! We had an amazing time taking our pictures around Porto with her. She made us both feel relaxed and happy, something difficult to do with my fiance who doesn't like photos. The process was genuinely fun, and Christie offered lots of tips on how to pose and what to do, she definitely knows what she's doing! That was clear as well once we got the pictures back, they are all amazing. We are so impressed with the level of quality and professionalism shown by Christie on top of how much fun we had taking the photos themselves. I can't recommend her enough for anyone looking to get any kind of photos done, no matter where you're located! Thanks again Christie!

★★★★★

I cannot recommend Christie @KrystaPhotos enough for anyone looking for an engagement photographer. Christie was incredibly professional, warm, and attentive from the moment I contacted her looking for input and suggestions for the surprise photoshoot. I was coming for a 2 week trip to Portugal with my gf at the time and knew I wanted to propose during the trip. I was not sure where to start when it came to finding a photographer and wanted to make sure I was talking to an actual human. When I saw Christie's portfolio and website I decided to reach out. She was very quick to ease my mind and answer any questions I had.

She made us feel at ease during the entire photo shoot, which really shone through in the stunning pictures we received. Her ability to capture our candid moments created breathtaking snapshots of our love and joy.

Communication was seamless from start to finish, with Christie always being prompt and clear. The turnaround time on the photos was also impressive, coming in well before we expected. Plus, the creativity with locations and poses made our photos truly unique and personal.

Choosing Christie was one of the best decisions I made during our engagement planning. The photos are not just pictures but cherished memories that we will treasure forever.

I added a few pictures but there were just too many great ones that I can't pick a favorite.

★★★★★

Krysta was absolutely amazing to work with capturing my surprise engagement in Liveria Lello. She was great to work with before the day of the event and provided thoughtful suggestions and guidance since I had never been in the bookstore before. On the day of, she was able to discretely direct me to the perfect place to propose and had gathered a small crowd so that our moment would not be accidentally interrupted. She was gracious and kind and wow her photos were beautiful. She spent a ton of time with us taking pictures in numerous spots in the bookstore and even did a separate photo shoot in a location she knew about nearby. She got us back a sneak peak of our photos way more quickly than I expected and got back all of our photos far earlier than the timeline she initially mentioned. She was truly and amazing photographer and we highly recommend her to anyone wanting someone to capture a special moment in their lives. Thank you for making our moment so special

★★★★★

Christie is absolutely phenomenal. She was so flexible in the planning phase of my surprise proposal and helped a lot. Once we were shooting she was very professional and focused on giving us the best pictures and at the same time making us feel absolutely comfortable. She is a very charming and friendly person with a genuine personality. I am so so happy that Christie was the one I contacted, it couldn't have been better and we are very happy with the photos.

★★★★★

We are completely in love with the photos Christie took for us! The colors, the locations, even the poses she placed us in, they're all so fantastic and exactly what we had envisioned! Being from the US and trying to find and book a photographer in a foreign country seemed a little overwhelming to us at first, but we can't thank her enough for making the process so easy. It was wonderful spending our morning with Christie, and she made us feel so at ease during the whole experience! Porto quickly stole our hearts, and her photos are the perfect way to help us remember it for years to come.

★★★★★

We worked with Christie for a surprise honeymoon photoshoot in Porto and she was incredible to work with. She did an unbelievable job and captured angles, lighting, and moments which we will enjoy forever. She was very easy to work with as well. Highly recommend working with Christie!

She is such a great person with great and creative ideas, very patient and always in a good mood and she makes you feel very comfortable during the photoshooting! Totally recommend her!!!

★★★★★

I was fortunate enough to find Christie online for my trip to Portugal. I was planning to propose and wanted a photographer to capture the moment. She was flexible and very helpful as we planned the meet up, even providing suggestions since she was the local and we were coming from abroad.

Her engagement photo package was great. Would recommend

★★★★★

I don't have prior experience with photoshooting but Christie set the bar really high. I don't know where to begin. The empathy, the conversation, the laughs, the professionalism, the smiles, the jokes. It was an absolute pleasure and a unique experience to be with Christie.

When I finally saw the final cut it was beyond any expectations. I could relieve every emotion through her photography. She was able to depict, with such grace, all that I was feeling in the moment. She has a gift, cathing the emotion through the story she was narrating with her camera.

Thank you for everything

★★★★★

Christie is the most amazing photographer I've ever met, I never like my photos and she has some superpower that makes everyone look amazing. I've had creative photoshoots with her but also professional ones and I'm always amazed at her professionalism and how she can make everyone feel at ease!

★★★★★

Krystallenia is a photographer with a unique eye. I've worked with her on photoshoots for album covers, portfolios, website content, and I've had the pleasure of having her cover my events. As an opera singer, it's essential for me to work with someone who knows how to read moments, who knows how to capture the right movement at the right time. Stage life is unique and genuine, and only a photographer with the same characteristics can capture it flawlessly. Krystallenia is an excellent professional. She lives the client's moment, she studies the context, she proposes scenarios and perspectives. And on top of all that, she's a wonderful human being.

She is highly technical and excels at positioning herself to capture the perfect shot. Not only that, but she brings an enthusiastic fervor, always willing to go the extra mile to ensure everything runs smoothly. Her readiness to assist others and her genuine eagerness to facilitate are truly remarkable.

Thank you for such a remarkable experience! Each frame tells a story and beautifully captures the moments of this wedding. It's a delight to collaborate with someone who not only excels professionally but also radiates such a cheerful spirit.
