Meet Your Photographer

Hi, I'm Karissa

I believe everyone deserves images that feel as real as the love behind them. Whether it's your first bump, a brand new baby, your whole crew together, or the day you get married, I'm here to capture the moments you'll want to hold onto forever.

I photograph from studios in Tampa, Florida and Appleton, Wisconsin, and I bring the same warm, relaxed approach to both so you can just show up and be yourselves.
