Log House Gardens Wedding: Justin + Amanda

The Sun was warm, and the wind high atop ASA Lofts in the Pearl. It was one of those days when you want to slip into your  bathing suit, lay out and just soak it in. I love when the wind has it’s way with your hair- the movement, the lift, the lightness of it. […]

Engagement Hotness: Meagan + Evan Cathedral Park Engagement

Oh the list of things I wish I had been told at the beginning! As a nervous, self-preoccupied newbie,  I was too engrossed in keeping my head above water to take the time and build relationships with the other wedding vendors. What a missed opportunity! This is why I’m telling YOU to open your eyes […]

Her genuine passion for life, fearlesslness and effortless […]

Marketing & Business: How to Manage your Pricing

4 years ago, I was running a clothing line, full website, and product coming out of my ears. While a glamorous job, it wasn’t worth the remuneration I was getting for the sacrifice my family and I were investing. Struggling, and not a little frustrated, I started to look for other options. Meanwhile, I had […]

Inspiration & Art: Pop Art

After 2 years of working full-time as a photographer, I was feeling more confident and ready to see my work published.   But where to begin? Do I have to sift through thousands of wedding blogs and submit my photos in their particular format and hope they get accepted? That’s when Jasmine Star and her […]

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth. Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar. The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn’t listen. She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way. 

WE ARE SOULMATES

WHY we're the perfect match

"Christa, you are such a delight to work with. You bring so much energy and direction to a photo shoot. The photographs you take, are truly a reflection of your talent and passion in photography."

"Christa is incredible. She really gets to know you, makes you feel comfortable and takes fabulous photos. Christa took our engagement photos, did a boudoir photo shoot for kate and did our wedding. We couldn't be happier with her.

"Christa is professional, fun, creative and in touch with her clients. She makes everyone look and feel beautiful. We could not be happier with her and her work."

Long before I was engaged, I knew I wanted Christa Taylor Photography to capture the special moments of my wedding. She more than met our expectations, and seldom a month goes by without somebody telling us how gorgeous our wedding pictures turned out! 
 Working with Christa is like finding some awesome girlfriend who completely gets you and can show you the beauty in whatever project you're undertaking. I recommend her to every bride I work with! Thank you, Christa, for your incredible work!

Christa is absolutely PHENOMENAL! My husband and I are beyond blessed to have had her capture our day! She was so great at directing people kindly and having fun too! She's a blast and we enjoyed the day more because of her! We loved getting to know her and she even had us to her home the week after our wedding for a brief photo shoot since the weather had been bad on the wedding day...she really went above and WAY beyond the call of a photographer and became our friend! She's the type we'd schedule a photo shoot with simply to see her and catch up!! There are not words to reccomend Christa highly enough! 💕We love you Christa!!

"SHE WAS SO GREAT AT DIRECTING PEOPLE
KINDLY AND HAVING FUN..."
