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 as they unfold.

"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,


a Spokane family and documentary photographer and I'm so excited you're here!


Becoming a mom shifted everything for me, including how I see time. Suddenly, I understood how quickly it goes as I watch my son grow up right before my eyes.


Photographs let us hold on to moments in time, and I love that because, as a mom, I never want to forget a thing.
