While booking the session, Christa was the epitome of kindness and grace for determining best dates and solving the inevitable problems that can arise when scheduling a session. She was supportive and empowering with styling and choosing a location for a setting. During the session, she did an amazing job capturing our family's expressions and helping everyone be at ease and comfortable during the session. Christa captured so many real and beautiful moments of our family and we will treasure them for our lifetime and generations to come. Thank you Christa!!!

Saying Christa is amazing is an understatement! She absolutely made my vision come to life and more. She is great behind the camera but also such a sweet soul and great person. She has given me moments with my daughter that I will cherish forever. Don’t hesitate to choose her for your photographs. I promise you won’t regret it.

Christa Pastenbaugh is an incredible photographer. I've admired her work for a long time and found out she was relocating to Colorado, and decided to book with her immediately. We live 2 hours away and drove to her to have an amazing experience with my family. She was such a pro and made the entire experience so much fun for us. Our photos are stunning. I cannot wait to print them and showcase them as the main pieces in our home.

Scheduled my first shoot with Christa in 2020 the summer we moved to CA, and just had our last shoot with her the night before we left CA. She has photographed our family through adding a baby and watching both kiddos grow, she did my maternity photos, and she did my branding photos. Every single time I am blown away! Even when the shoot feels chaotic (#toddlers), she gets the shot. I tell her she’s magical, because she truly is. In addition to being incredibly talented, she is so much fun and easy going. Can’t recommend her enough!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Christa! Not only is she a delight to work with (professional, a great communicator and so kind) but also her work is stunning! I had so much fun during our shoot and I couldn’t be happier with our pictures. You can tell she really puts her clients at ease and it shows in her work. She even put up with our goofy dog who wanted to be in every photo. She had so much patience with my newborn and got the most amazing photos. I can’t recommend Christa enough!

Christa is amazing!! She was so wonderful from the start with helping us decide locations and outfits for our family pictures. She answered any and all questions and had tons of very helpful suggestions. Our shoot was so FUN! She was attentive to our little ones and showed she really cares about making the experience special. She is super patient and encouraging, and just made the whole experience a blast! The results of the shoot were absolutely stunning. The hardest part was narrowing down which pictures to use for cards/prints because we loved them all! Overall, we were so pleased with the whole experience and can’t wait to use Christa for photos in the future!!
