When you’re planning your Lake Tahoe wedding, there’s a good chance you don’t want to be stuck in a stuffy building completely cut off from the surroundings. No way!

This intimate April wedding at Tahoe Blue Estate wanted to give us a second winter. Blusteringly frigid winds did not steal any joy from this intimate wedding at Tahoe Blue Estate.

SHALL WE MEET?
HI FRIENDS
I’m Kirsten—a wedding photographer here to guide you through this wildly exciting time…and toward the best lighting.
Ever since my days in the highschool darkroom, I’ve been enamored with the power images have to tell a compelling story. I went on to study photography and fashion at Savannah College of Art & Design and worked as an editor for a studio before founding Kirsten Marie Photography in 2012. Every day since, and I’ve fallen deeper in love with the art of wedding photography—there’s just nothing quite as fascinating and fulfilling as documenting the tenderness and palatable joy weddings bring out in people.
As someone who’s painfully spotlight-shy, I know how awkward being photographed can feel—which is why I work to bring an atmosphere of ease to our time together. I pour my whole heart into hyping you up, getting you the material you deserve, and making sure you feel comfortable and cared for.
Beyond the lens, I’m a mom to two feisty girls. Translation: there’s no challenge I cannot handle. While you’re soaking in sunsets and sipping champagne—you can find me crawling through bushes and traipsing through snowpack to get the best angle…and loving every single second of it.
