Krista Suzanne Photography

Gardendale, AL
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000

My friends would describe me as a sunny and bright person, and that’s how I photograph. I love capturing joy and making sure that the session feels that way too. I am the youngest sister of four girls and it have always been surrounded by creativity (and girls borrowing all my clothes). My favorite thing is bringing that creativity and fun to my sessions, and I can’t believe I get to bring my passion to my job each day.

Krista was such a joy to work with! She keeps up with you with emails so that you always know what’s going on and how she’s getting prepped. She’s encouraging during photos and was always available to help me take a break if I needed it! The photos have turned out beautifully and I’m in love with all that I’ve seen I highly recommend her to anyone for wedding photos!

Kelvin and Robert were phenomenal to work with. They made the entire process of choosing your music very simple. They were very professional but also went with the flow. There were some last minute changes to our ceremony songs that I wanted that Robert changed with absolutely no problem. Kelvin (DJKelz) made the night absolutely incredible!

Awarded Best of Zola
I used A Rae of Light for my June 9 wedding and she was wonderful! I hired her partial planning service and it ended up being exactly what I needed, as a fairly self-driven type A bride who did not live in the city (Birmingham) where my wedding was happening. Raven served as essential eyes and ears throughout the process. She had great recommendations for venues and vendors, and was able to use her connections to get some discounts and deals for us, which as a budget-conscious bride I really appreciated!!! She also gave us a great recommendation for our afterparty, and was extremely patient as I went back-and-forth on whether to implement our heat plan (ended up going with our Plan A and it was beautiful!). Most importantly, she communicated well with us and helped implement our vision for what we wanted for the wedding rather than imposing her ideas. The wedding day was amazingly stress-free and it was all because of her! I highly highly recommend working with her!

We found Greg and BJ at a local bridal show. We talked with them and loved what they offered. We met with them a few weeks later, and felt very comfortable. We hired them for our ceremony and reception. At our meeting before the wedding, we filled out planners for everything I wanted to happen. The day of, the ceremony went great. They played music 30 minutes before for FREE! They put mics on the Pastor and my Groom Charles so we could be heard. The music was timed perfectly. In the reception they played easy jazz music during dinner. Our dances and cake cutting went without a hitch. They then started the dance music and we had a blast!
