    Where to begin…the winter of 2020. I got engaged and out of nowhere I was throwing our names around to win an engagement session giveaway with any photographer. Then one morning my mother-in-law sent me a Facebook engagement session giveaway with Christman Photography. I read the recommendations and all I had to do was tell my husband and I’s story. So that is what I did and within the next couple of days we had a zoom meeting with Preston Christman. We got to know each other and everything Christman photography had to offer, and we were one in many people who put our names in for this giveaway, so we thought there was no chance we were winning. But we watched the live feed of Preston and his wife Laurette announcing the winners of the giveaway and we were selected. We were so excited to being able to work with such a fun person from the first encounter we had with Preston. We ended up having our engagement session on October 2021 at Lockridge Park. I wanted a fall themed engagement session, so I trusted Preston with giving me a couple options to pick from and I was stunned with how these pictures turned out. Anyways on first official in person encounter, Preston and Laurette were warm and welcoming people. Throughout the engagement session we had many laughs with our dog Max, leaves being thrown, Preston getting his butt wet for the perfect picture, and even Preston helping Bryce by holding his hand and teaching him how to hip bump and swing. We had such a blast and once we got a preview of our pictures, I knew right away that I wanted to book them for our wedding. So, I made sure to secure my spot with them for September 2, 2023. Next, wedding planning! We had a one-on-one phone call with Preston and Laurette to discuss the time frame of our wedding to make sure we captured everything we wanted to for our special day. We were able to plan everything the way we both pictured it and the photos at the end did not disappoint and it was planned and captured above our expectations. Before, during and after the ceremony the pictures that were captured seem magical and don’t seem real, they are breathtaking. We had so much fun dancing the night away and even had our special last dance together captured forever in picture. Next on our wedding adventure with Christman Photography was planning our wedding album. We thankfully had a couple weeks to look through the pictures and know what we wanted in our album. So, we took our trip to Preston and Laurette’s studio where they had our album pre-made through the computer and took us on our journey through it via slide show with our first dance song in the background which made me a bit teary eyed reliving the moments shown on the screen. Afterwards we were able to customize the album how we wanted by removing and adding pictures along with the placement of pictures which makes it bittersweet that we can create our album how we want together with Preston and Laurette. We even got to customize everything from the cover to the color and all. We were blown away by how incredible it turned out. Overall, I am so happy we decided to use Christman Photography for our engagement and wedding journey and hope they will come along for the ride for many more sentimental moments we have throughout the years. So, if you are looking for a photographer, I highly recommend Christman Photography you can check them out on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or their website you will not be disappointed.

    Our journey with Christman Photo started back in 2021 when we had our engagement session. From the start they were amazing to work with. Patient, creative, inquisitive and just fun to be around; they made our session so enjoyable. My now wife and I are easy going people and did not have much in the way of photo or location ideas for our engagement session. But from our survey answers Preston and Laurette were able to create an amazing session that gave us both romantic and fun photos to reflect our engagement on. On that day, we did not just solidify our choice in wedding photographers, but as some new friends as well. They were so easy to work and talk with, that it seemed as if we knew them from some time. Jumping to our wedding in Nov 2022, we had the same amazing experience with Christman Photography. From the start of the day to the sparkler exit, Preston and Laurette were professional, timely, creative and most importantly, showed interest and drive for their work. We had some ideas for photos throughout the day, and Preston delivered, but we also had rain, which means a good portion of our ideas would not happen. Here is where you want to make sure you have a professional doing your photos; Preston and Laurette had creative ideas in mind, and all we needed to do was trust them. Let me tell you, the rain photo they captured is one of my wifes and my favorites!! We would not have been able to think of that photo at all, and are so glad that Christman Photography is so dedicated to their craft! But their professionalism and creativity doesn't stop there; we opted to get an album from them as well. They curated a story in photo form. From the start of the day, right down to the exit; our wedding is now immortalized in a gorgeous album that we cannot stop showing off. We absolutely loved our experience with Christman Photography and would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a personal, professional, and unforgettable photo experience. P.S. We are planning on partaking in a Christmas Mini session with them this Holiday season, and cannot wait to see and work with them again!

    Fun and knowledgeable couple. We received so many compliments the day of the wedding on how great the photographers were. They really took it as seriously as I could have asked, making sure to snap every special moment and found ways to make them even more special.

    Christman photography went above and beyond, not only on our wedding day, but with any other encounter we had with them. They made us feel so at ease and comfortable the day of our wedding. They made it fun and they also joined in on the fun, which made it even better! My family had nothing but good things to say about them! The love for what they do really shows and it only made us happy to have them share our special day with us!
