"Crystal was absolutely amazing. I knew from the moment I got engaged that I wanted her for our wedding! She was more than what I even expected! She was so easy to work with! Made me and my entire wedding party feel so comfortable, and during the reception you didn’t even tell they were there and the BEST pictures came from that part of the wedding!
Hands down one of the best!"

"Thank you so much for the absolute best Christmas gift! I am completely in awe of them! If I haven’t looked through them all 20 times, I haven’t looked once. You and Brenna did such a fantastic job of capturing the joy and love that we overwhelmingly felt that day! You made sure to get photos of families and couples along with all the great candid shots. Some of our friends and family have suggested that they should be in magazines! We LOVE them!"

"We were so blessed to find Crystal to photograph our wedding! Throughout our entire wedding journey, she went above and beyond paying close attention to every detail. She made the process easy and stress free! Out of all of our vendors, she was the easiest to work with and knew exactly when certain events needed to be photographed. My husband and I both feel that throughout our wedding planning process, Crystal became like family. She captured our wedding day perfectly, capturing every detail to a tea."

"From my very first phone conversation with Crystal, I knew she would be an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. She was excited to learn about our day; ready to brainstorm about photo locations that would maximize our schedule but still capture NOLA's romantic charm. Having her at the helm alleviated a lot of my stress on the wedding day. If you choose Crystal, congratulations, your experience with her will truly be the best you can get!"

"When we first met with Crystal we were impressed by her professionalism, charming personality, and, of course, her beautiful work. Crystal had thought of everything - even a multi-layered storage system to make sure our images would be protected for years to come. We booked Crystal and I’m so grateful that we did. Crystal was an absolute treasure. She stayed calm and positive and found creative solutions to every situation. By the day of the event, she genuinely felt like part of the family."

"Of all of the vendors that we hired for our wedding, using Crystal Sanderson as our photographer was our best investment. It’s truly amazing how much she goes above and beyond her job duties throughout the entire process to make sure your vision is coming to life. She became my confidant and go-to person for everything. I found myself both crying and laughing viewing the pictures. Her integrity is a blessing for the wedding industry."

"Crystal was the absolute best!! After she did my sisters wedding the year before me, I had no doubt she’d be the one doing mine. I love my images so much!! Not only does she have such great quality photos, but her vision for all of our sessions (engagements, bridals and wedding) was wonderful. She is also the sweetest person and photographer I’ve ever met, which is one reason we love her! It is obvious how much Crystal loves what she does and she’s so great at it! Highly recommended to all!"
