I DOCUMENT THE MOMENTS YOU NEVER WANT TO FORGET


View My Work

For families who want to remember it all​


Maybe you’re welcoming a new baby, chasing a toddler, or realizing just how much your kids have changed since your last family photos. You want to remember their toothless smiles, the way they put their shoes on the wrong feet, or how they sit on the front steps eating their favorite popsicle in the summertime.


Those are the moments I want to help you hold onto. I’m a Spokane family photographer serving Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Coeur d’Alene, Post Falls, and the surrounding areas. My sessions leave room for both the photos you know you want and the little moments you might not realize you’ll miss. I’ll give you guidance when you need it and plenty of room to simply be together.

You're in the right place if... 


  • You want a connection driven images, along with a few pictures of everyone looking at the camera.
  • You worry your kids won’t cooperate and would appreciate someone who’s happy to work at their pace.
  • You like the idea of spending your session snuggling, playing, or doing something your family enjoys.
  • You want gentle direction so you don’t have to wonder what to do with your hands.
  • You’re comfortable taking a break for snacks, comforting your baby, or letting your toddler explore.
  • You want to be in the pictures, too—because being part of their memories matters just as much as taking them.

Once you’re booked, you’ll receive a session guide with everything you need to feel ready.

your session


This is where we get to have the most fun! During family and newborn sessions, I’ll gently guide you through a mix of classic portraits while also capturing natural interactions. With documentary sessions, I take a hands-off approach, no posing, just me documenting your family’s real moments.

"She took her time capturing the natural moments of our family, and we ended up getting exactly what we wanted out of a family/newborn session. Her calm and joyful presence put us at ease."

Hey, I'm Krissa,


I’m a Spokane family photographer, a mom, and someone who desperately wishes she could slow down time.


I became a mom in September 2024, and it shifted everything for me, including how I see time. Sometimes I don’t even realize something was a phase until my son has already moved on to the next one.


In 2025, I left my corporate career behind and picked up my camera again. Now, I want to help other moms like me hold onto these little moments forever.


Because if you’re anything like me, your family is your world, and you never want to forget a thing.
