Heyyy there! I’m Kiersten, the founder and creative force behind the lens. Born and raised in West Virginia, this beautiful state is what I call my home.

A Wave of the Wand Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $950
  • Serves Harlan, KY

For over 14 years, I’ve been capturing love stories—transforming your big day into timeless memories. I’m all about the joy, laughter, and magic of weddings. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me enjoying tacos, cake, and geeking out over Disney. I’m also a huge fan of sunsets and cruises—and I absolutely love capturing weddings at sea. There’s nothing like saying “I do” with the ocean breeze and a stunning sunset in the background. Let’s make your wedding unforgettable!

I honestly don’t even know where to begin with how amazing Crystal was as our wedding photographer. We were originally booked with another photographer who completely ghosted us just two days before the wedding. They texted to say they couldn’t make it, leaving us stranded and with no photographer just days before the big day. I was beyond stressed, having read so many horror stories in Facebook groups about photographers bailing on couples. While some brides exaggerate these situations to find a cheaper photographer, I genuinely believed I had booked someone reliable. Life just happened, and we were left scrambling. I reached out in Facebook groups for recommendations, but many photographers were charging nearly double for last-minute bookings, and some didn’t even respond. Then, Crystal commented on one of my posts saying she was available. I looked at her work and loved her clean, timeless style. Her photos felt natural—nothing looked staged or out of place. I reached out, and to my surprise, she responded within an hour or two after I filled out a request form on her website. She was incredibly attentive, always answering my questions quickly and thoroughly. This was something many other photographers didn’t do—her communication was top-notch. When I called Crystal to discuss her services, she mentioned she doesn’t like to push for more photos. That was a huge relief since I didn’t want to feel pressured into constant photoshoots. She helped put together a timeline to maximize our time together, making it clear that if things ran late, it would cut into our photo time. I appreciated how knowledgeable she was about weddings and how everything worked. That, for me, was the biggest selling point. Crystal wasn’t just a photographer; she was someone who understood how to make the most out of the day. The thing that stood out most was how she kept telling me, "It’s your day, we can do whatever you want." I loved that flexibility, but she also honestly warned me that if we deviated from the timeline, we might miss some photo opportunities or have fewer photos. I really appreciated her honesty and straightforwardness. Part of her process includes sending a detailed packet about a month before the wedding. It seemed like a lot, but it was so helpful! After I filled it out, she called to go over everything and work on the timeline together. Even my venue coordinator didn’t do that, and I really appreciated Crystal’s level of care and attention to detail. On the wedding day, Crystal made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. I’m not a huge picture-taker, and while I wanted every moment captured, I didn’t want to be pressured to do constant photoshoots. Weddings are hectic, and the day was busy. But I really appreciated how Crystal understood when I needed a break. She gave me time to enjoy the music, drinks, and moments with family and friends without pushing me for more photos. Yes, I knew I might not get as many photos, but the ones she did capture are perfect—beautiful, natural, and full of emotion. Booking with Crystal was one of the best decisions I made. She went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and at ease, and that meant so much to me. If you're looking for someone dependable, professional, and genuinely caring about capturing your day in the most beautiful, authentic way, I highly recommend her. Thank you, Crystal, for being such a huge part of our unforgettable day!

My name is Shannon, and I have been doing photography since the beginning of 2021, and I absolutely LOVE it. It started as a hobby and has grown into my true passion. I recently moved to the Louisville area and am so excited to connect with new clients to capture their unique and fabulous lives. I specialize in lifestyle photography, focusing on capturing authentic, everyday moments. Whether it’s families, couples, engagements, or weddings, I aim to create memories that feel real and unposed. I don’t do fashion or editorial photography because I believe the best photos are the unplanned ones—my favorites are often the bloopers!

Shannon was so sweet and amazing, she was about to move to New Orleans and her foot was giving her grieve and still took me on as a client. She was everywhere she needed to be, she got so many photos and the edits she made were better than I could ever imagine. I will forever cherish these photos and if she ever comes back to Washington I will defiantly book her for another shoot with my husband.

Kendra Farris Photography

  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Harlan, KY

I want to intentionally & truthfully capture these good ol’ days, so you can have photos to look back on. The years go will on & the photos will get more precious with time. I love capturing weddings of all sizes: from the big wedding that celebrates the blending of two families and cultures. To the intimate backyard wedding or elopement wedding in Red River Gorge, Kentucky. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2015 and have been lucky to capture over 150 weddings since then. The couples I resonate with the most are the ones want their memories captured candidly as they naturally unfold.

Kendra was amazing to work with. First, she met with my sister and I to plan out the timeline of the wedding. She was incredibly receptive to ideas that we had and she was able to help us plan the day to make it all happen. On the day-of, even when I was still being sewn into my dress, she was sure to keep everything on time and keep us at ease. She is such a sweet soul and she made people who don’t like their photographs taken comfortable. Everyone was EXTREMELY pleased with the photographs she took. She is 1000% worth it.

Just a small town girl enjoying the little things in life! Most times, I'm snuggling up to my sweet Great Dane, Lulu, or my better half, Phillip, hanging out in our Kentucky home. There's not much I'd rather do than enjoy the company of the ones I love most! (Unless you throw tacos in there, then I'm running for the door for those bad boys haha).

Megan was the best wedding photographer I could ever imagine! From moment one she was very professional, passionate and personable! We had a meeting before the event to see what each of us expected and requested. Every vision I had throughout the evening she made come true. She was very creative and capture every moment beautifully. I even had a surprise boudoir session after makeup for a surprise for my husband. She was the best hype woman ever and that set me up for a confidence boost before the ceremony. Would highly highly recommend her for your big day!

Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a wedding photographer based in West Virginia! I find happiness in my family, my church, warm summer light, capturing moments on film, sunrises and sunsets, and reminiscing on nostalgic moments. I have a passion for travel and am always happy to go somewhere new! I picked up my first camera in middle school (thanks, Grandpa) and never looked back. I began documenting my own life, as well as special moments for my friends & family, and I quickly fell in love with the gift of memories that photography provides.

I cannot recommend Maddie highly enough! From the first moments of our special day, her warm and calming presence immediately put us at ease. She was so kind and professional throughout the entire process, making what could have been a stressful portion of the day feel effortless and joyful. Her attention to detail and ability to capture genuine, heartfelt moments are truly unmatched. Every time I look back at my wedding photos, I’m transported to that magical day all over again. These photos are treasures I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful to Maddie for preserving these memories so beautifully. If you’re looking for a photographer who is both talented and an absolute delight to work with, look no further! Congrats on your big day! I know Maddie will capture all the magic... you just go get married! ;)

Hey there! My name is Savanah and I started photography full time back in 2021 and it has been absolutely amazing. I have met so many amazing couples, and helped capture the most important day of their lives. I’m very big on candid moments and in between of your wedding day, from the little looks from across the room, to grandpa breaking it down on the dance floor. My goal is to capture every single thing that makes YOUR day special.

Savanah Marie Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From the beginning, their communication was easy-going, clear, and consistent, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. On the day itself, Savanah was so considerate - it was freezing outside, which made it difficult to take photos, but she gave us ample breaks to warm up and recover from the unrelenting wind. She also made sure to capture all the poses I had requested. While we haven't received the full collection back yet, the sneak peeks we've seen are absolutely captivating and such high-quality. The photos beautifully capture our love story and the beauty of our wedding day. I have never felt more beautiful and my husband feels the exact same way. Savanah's work is truly of the highest value, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

Our wedding timeline got way behind and they handled it with ease and was never pushy or rushed. The delay or changes in the timeline did not phase them! They helped me keep everyone calm and that is important to a wedding planner and the bride and groom!

We are a photo and cinema team. Our niche is weddings, fashion and quinceaneras. We love what we do and our foundation is Jesus. Without Him we would not be here. We are a destination team as well. We travel the U.S. and abroad.

Words cannot fully express the gratitude we feel for the incredible team behind R&R Productions! From the moment we met them during our engagement shoot, they instantly made us feel at ease, turning what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into something genuinely fun and unforgettable. Their warm personalities, unmatched professionalism, and creative vision were evident right from the start. When it came to our wedding day—the most important day of our lives—they didn’t just capture moments; they captured the very essence of love, joy, and celebration that surrounded us. They didn’t feel like vendors; they felt like family, celebrating alongside us while documenting each precious second. They even covered us in prayer, which meant so much to us. Raphael worked through an injury without us knowing, simply because he didn’t want us to adjust anything for him. That level of dedication and selflessness left us in awe. They don’t just take pictures and record videos; they weave a story from the beginning to the end, preserving the magic and emotions in a way that’s truly extraordinary. And I just don’t even know where to begin with Rasheeda. We met through a Facebook post I replied to—one I initially thought was a scam. Boy, was I wrong! She and I ended up talking that very same day for over an hour, and it felt like we’d known each other forever. From the start, it was never just a business transaction; it felt like family helping to prepare for the big moments in life. Her warmth and genuine care meant everything to us. I don’t know what I did to be so lucky to have crossed paths with this amazing team, but I am forever grateful that we did. I honestly feel like I should keep them on retainer for every milestone in life because I cannot imagine anyone else being able to document such meaningful moments with the care and dedication they do. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly! Jerome and I are so grateful for the both of you.

I would absolutely recommend Time Garden Photography to anyone. Her editing style is so unique and rememberable. Booking with her will be the best decision!

  • Serves Harlan, KY

We are a recently married husband and wife team based in Kentucky who fell in love with wedding photography while we fell in love with each other. We can't get enough of anything green, be it gardens, arboretums, forests, or any of the many plants scattered around our house. Our free time frequently consists of spending hours cooking overly complicated food, exploring nature, or curling up together under the blankets with a fresh cup of tea.
