"Wow this lady is a Rockstar when it comes to photography 📸"
~ Alaysha
“She was very friendly and helpful when it came to planning our daughters 1st birthday cake smash. She had wonderful creative ideas and listened to what I wanted and followed through and made the dream come true. The fact she provided the cake for my little princess and made it look so beautiful was just the icing on the cake 😉 She was very responsive in emails and gives direct instructions. When our photoshoot day arrived we were so excited but also nervous. If your looking for a photographer I'd put my money right here. She exceeded our expectations and when the photos arrived we were blown away with the magic and memories she created ✨️ we are so grateful to Crystal for her talent and time she put into our photos. I give her a 5 star rating but I truly wish I could give her a 10 out of 10 🌟”
