You know that amazing travel host...

I'm Karissa.
Your photographer & planning buddy.

I travel throughout the world capturing couples’ & families beautiful and unique stories. I am a big ol’ nature lover, and my happy place is exploring the outdoors with my husband, dog, and son. My heart is most full while hiking, camping, road-tripping or sitting around a campfire with my favorite people.

I LOVE getting to meet new friends from around the world and can’t wait to learn about your story! So let’s get to know each other. Let’s chat through your vision, answer your questions and start planning your best adventure yet.

I am a huge space nerd and still brag about going to Space Camp in the 7th grade.

01

I am the kind of gal who asks for all three salsas at Chipotle.

02

I aspire to be LIKE Leslie Knope when I grow up.

03

I would pretty much always rather be hanging around a campfire.

04

If I could teleport anywhere I'd be on top of a mountain or enjoying a delicious meal with my favorite people

It's probably pretty obvious by now that I love to travel, and I'm guessing that you do too! Every year I travel across the US and internationally for elopements and intimate weddings. I've become an expert at shooting in all kinds of environments and planning for the best travel schedule around weather conditions, seasonal road closures, crowds and scouting breathtaking off-the-beaten-path spots for your day. I have some spots I'm heading listed here but I'll also be in Los Angeles and Southern California shooting. I'm always up for adding new spots to my schedule. Reach out so we can jump into planning!

YOSEMITE | OCTOBER

"They made us (people who are not used to being in front of a camera) feel super comfortable."

Justine & Gerry

We had such a wonderful experience with Wildflower Photo, and cannot recommend them enough! Karissa and Tyler were our photographers for our tiny wedding celebration in Joshua Tree, and they were fantastic. Not only are we thrilled with how the photos came out, but Karissa was excellent at communicating with us before/during/after. They made us (people who are not used to being in front of a camera) feel super comfortable.

"If you're looking for an experience where you are made to feel special, Karissa and Mike are THE best hype team. They are also just a joy to be around."

Allie & Eric

Karissa and Mike are just the best. Four other couples who are our close friends have all used Wildflower Photo Co., because they are just that good - both their photo AND video are phenomenal. If you're looking for an experience where you are made to feel special, Karissa and Mike are THE best hype team. They are also just a joy to be around.

"Please look no further when looking for a photographer! I can't recommend Mike and Karissa enough. One less thing to stress about for the big day, I promise :D"

THO & CHAZ

Mike and Karissa worked so hard all throughout our entire wedding weekend! They really don't stop until they get the shot. Also, shooting with them felt so naturally, we never felt too posed or awkward and all of our pictures turned out SO PERFECT!
