-My older daughter just loved her. She was excellent with my newborn.-

-We did the “milestones” package, and every three months, Christie works her magic with our little guy-

 
Christie came to our home after my second daughter was born to do a lifestyle shoot for us. She was amazing! She arrived a few minutes early to set up (punctuality is a big deal for me) and she was great. My older daughter just loved her. She was excellent with my newborn. She was comfortable taking over the swaddle to make sure it looked picture perfect. She had a good balance of getting the shots we requested and suggesting what would look good. I highly recommend her!
— The Fuhry Family
 

-She treated our son as if he were her own-

 
Christie had done our engagement photos, so we knew we wanted to include her in our journey when we found out we were expecting. We were sure we wanted newborn photos, but I was a little apprehensive about maternity photos... because, well I was eight months pregnant and really starting to feel it. Christie was so understanding and down to earth. She reassured me that these would be memories we would cherish for life, and she was right! Christie listened to our input and gave some of her own. She selected the perfect location and took such beautiful pictures of a special time in our lives. We did the “milestones” package, and every three months, Christie works her magic with our little guy. She is so good with him, and the photos are just amazing— not like anything you would get at the local mall studios. AND, she does it in the comfort of our home, which is so convenient with an infant! We can’t wait to include Christie in many more milestones to come!
— The Ambuske Family
 

 
I had zero fears before hiring Christie. I mean come on, she does a great job, I already knew that! My favorite session was Casen’s newborn. I can’t believe it took SO LONG, but she was so patient with his fussieness plus a break for a feeding, AND she brought pizza so that I could eat too! All of the pictures always turn out great. I don’t know how she does it.. just when I think ‘oh he didn’t smile AT ALL’ or, we all look terrible’ there’s always a ton of great pictures. She always has great ideas of her own when it comes to backdrops, scenery and poses but is also willing to try new ideas or crazy ones that I come up with. There’s always get a photo with all of us smiling; it must be magic because I can’t ever do that! I love that she does them every year. Casen is shy as it is, but I think it helps having a familiar face behind the camera and we get to shoot in so many fun places! So it’s not same cheesy backdrop year after year!
— The Bernhard Family
 

-She made my not so smiley daughter look like an angel-

 
Christie is wonderful!! She did my maternity and my sons newborn photos. She made me feel so beautiful being pregnant. My session was so much fun and something I never thought I would do!! She was simply amazing with my son! I can’t even put into words the magical touch she has for newborns. I am so thankful for Christie!!! I loved every single one of our photos!

 -just when I think 'oh he didn't smile AT ALL' or, we all look terrible' there's always a ton of great pictures-

 
Where to begin...Christie is absolutely amazing.
I had a specific look in mind when with my wedding photography. I was very picky, much to my mother’s dislike. Then a family member recommended Christie. She was very professional and very easy to work with.
My husband and I were engaged for four years, so I was not too interested in engagement photos, so instead she swapped and did my daughter’s one year photos! She made my not so smiley daughter look like an angel.
Then my wonderful day came. She was amazing and captured so many moments that I never wanted to forget! Every person I have encountered since my wedding has said my pictures were so beautiful, and every person who was in my bridal party said she was amazing, and I would have to agree!
I am 100% satisfied with her service, and honestly, I can not wait to have her take more pictures of my family!
— The Michelmann Family

I can’t even put into words the magical touch she has for newborns.
