Let's transform your family memories into forever keepsakes
As your Columbus family photographer, My approach is completely hands on, once you book me I'm here to guide you through everything relating to your photos, I'll be your right hand gal in making your vision come to life. Outfits, location, date, hair and makeup, posing ( or not posing) and even printing the final photos, I've got you.
I love to create maternity photos that help freeze time for your family, so you can return to the good 'ole days anytime you want. This looks like setting up a "play based" photoshoot where the point of the photoshoot is not to get Family photos done, but to have fun with your family while I just happen to be there documenting it.
After I delivery your images to you ( on the same day we took them!) you get to dream up how to fill your walls and coffee tables full of beautiful artwork. All my session include a print credit that you can use toward your dream gallery wall of album. Before your session, I will send you a print guide so you can get started thinking about where you want to put your photos after we take them!
I know that you are excited to get your photos back and oo and awe over these beautiful images we've created together., that's why I get your pictures back to you only a few hours after we take them. That way you can shoot the pictures and get them printed all in the same day to make sure that your memories are properly preserved, and not just something you'll get around to " some day".
Choosing what to wear can sometimes be the hardest part of your shoot. As your Columbus family photographer, I've got you. I have a closet FULL of beautiful gowns that you can choose from for free! And once you have your outfit, I'll help you style the rest of the family to coordinate. I want you to feel your absolute best for these pictures, so i also offer hair and makeup as an add on to help take even more off your plate!
Once you’ve booked me, you'll pick a date to shoot, and we will discuss about your vision for the shoot! We’ll talk wardrobe ( which is provided!) and what you want your family to do during the pictures . Finally, we’ll discuss your vision for how you’d like to display your portraits once we’re done.

All the photos I have from Christal are beautiful and such high quality. She is so fun and easy to work with! I truly look forward to capturing more memories with her! from my birth daily, and still cry every time! They are the most special photos and I will treasure them forever.
"We had such a wonderful experience working with Christal "
My family and I enjoyed spending time with her for our maternity shoot. She made us feel comfortable and at ease. She was very patient with me after the birth of my child when I was having a hard time communicating. We will use her services again.
"I had an awesome experience!"
We picked Christal to do our maternity/labor/newborn photos. I was a little nervous as I’ve NEVER liked any pictures I’ve had done. And even while I was in labor I felt like I had one of my close friends with me! Seriously THE sweetest woman I’ve ever met. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND!! I seriously never want another photographer!
"She made everything AMAZING and so easy our pictures came out perfect!!"
I offer two location that you can shoot at. In your own home, or you can come to my home in zanesville and play outside on my 3 acres!
In home photography is my favorite because it's part of freezing time in your pictures, to be able to look back on how your family looked living life and having fun in your home.
Absolutely! I'm not just your photographer; I'm also your personal assistant for all things shoot related. I have a closet full of dresses you can wear and I help style your family around, I have a hair and makeup artist you can hire, and i have a note full of activity ideas you can do during your shoot
My primary focus is on wedding, elopement, and couples' photography. My passion lies in capturing the love stories of couples and creating beautiful, lasting memories for them. If you're looking for a photographer for other types of sessions, I'd love to connect you with my talented photographer friends!
