I am based in Chester County, and I photograph portraits, weddings, and headshots in the Philadelphia tri-state area. I began photographing professionally in 2000 and have taken photos of literally thousands of different kids and families, over 400 weddings, and hundreds of headshots.
My studio in Malvern is on gorgeous historic Chester County grounds, with 19th century preserved structures including an old ruin, a white-washed wooden barn, stone walls, a general store, and open outdoor space with tons of foliage.The building is a fully restored 1800's home, with a winding staircase, four fireplaces, and gorgeous wood floors.

Services
Based in historic Chester County, Pennsylvania, I photograph families big and small, pregnancy photos, newborns, first birthdays and cake smashes, pre-school portraits, kids, first holy communions, graduations, proposals and engagements, couples, businessmen and women, and other important life events.
I fell in love with shooting weddings when I began in 2002, and after 18 years and over 400 events, I actually STILL love them. I love photographing a couple at their first look and capturing the nervous happiness as they greet each other for the first time. I love goofing around with the wedding party during formals and capturing photos that are reflective of each couple's unique personalities.
Does your company need new "About Us" photos for your website? Do you need group portraits of executives or photography coverage of a corporate event or show? Are you renting out a commercial property and need good photos? I am available 7 days a week to document conferences, annual parties, trade shows, properties / buildings for rent or sale, or employee photos.
The session fee covers your photoshoot; prints and digital files are available a la carte. High-resolution digital files are not included with portrait session fees but are available for purchase, either as individual files ($50 each) or the full session ($600). You will choose what you'd like to buy after you see the photos, so you never need to commit to photos that haven't been taken yet.
Maternity sessions can be in my Malvern studio or on location, and should be photographed between 32 and 36 weeks into your pregnancy. Twins and multiples should be a little earlier, depending on your comfort level and doctor's recommendations. At the studio I have backdrops and lights for dramatic imagery, as well as outdoor historic grounds for environmental portraits.

I am glad I made the 30-minute drive to Crissy's studio rather than opting for someone located closer to me. Crissy made me look way better than I do in real life. The photo session was quick and easy, the studio was gorgeous, and Crissy was an absolute professional!

I found Crissy to be a super smart, professional and fun to work with. She did a great job helping me relax and pose for my head shots, giving me a wide range of image choices to work from and ultimately choose. I strongly recommend her, and will use her talents again if I need more professional photography work!

Crissy did a great job photographing our 4 year old son with special needs. He is hard to photograph because he is always moving and doesn't like the flash of the camera. Crissy took the time to show him her camera and let him push the button so he wouldn't be frightened. Her studio is in a beautiful location with indoor and outdoor scenery. The pictures were available online in under a week and the ordering process was easy. I also thought her prices were very reasonable. I would definitely recommend her to others.

Crissy is a meticulous artist who is truly passionate about her craft. We were referred to Crissy when another photographer wasn’t available for our wedding. I truly believe everything happens for a reason, and Crissy has now been a part of all the biggest milestones for our family. From our wedding, maternity photos, newborn photoshoots, 1st birthday photos, annual family photos, to beach photos with our extended family, and professional headshots, Crissy has captured the most beautiful pictures of our family. Somehow, she captures the perfect moments of my 2 little boys, when I can’t get

I chose Crissy as our photographer after seeing a family friend's wedding photos. Crissy and her assistant photographer Eric were great to work with. Crissy was very responsive and thorough during the planning process making sure she was familiar with our wedding party and our photo list. On our wedding day we felt at ease and comfortable with Crissy and Eric right away. Crissy was efficient working with our large wedding party to make sure we got all of our shots in. She has great vision and I'm very pleased with the locations and set ups she chose at our venue. I highly recommend Crissy.

Cryssi captured the exact moments that remind me how beautiful was our wedding day. Those pictures that you want to go back on your 50th wedding anniversary or even better, when your marriage struggles difficulty in life that you need to be reminded of the great team you started building with your husband.
Crissy is not only talented, she is an extraordinary person, easy going vendor, flexible, supportive and her team is exactly the same as her.
Thank you for made a print in our lives.
