Turning Photos into Forests

Together we can restore forests, create habitat for biodiversity, and make a positive social impact one journey at a time. For every session captured, I’m planting trees.

Learn about my efforts

"Krysa was so warm and made us feel so relaxed. She had such a calming presence with our (usually shy) young child which resulted in the most beautiful, candid photos of our family. I’m so thankful for the precious memories that we’ll have forever. As a bonus, she even plants a tree for each session booked! I can’t recommend Krysa enough!"

Nicole and Sam

"Krysa beautifully captured the most wholesome, magical and loving family photos we have ever received. She held space for us to be ourselves and gave guidance if needed. Highly recommend Journey Family Photography for her professionalism, beautiful style and eye for detail. Thanks again Krysa!"

Rebecca and Regan

"What a beautiful experience we had with Krysa. We were lucky enough to have her come to our home and she made us all feel so comfortable and warm. The images she captured were so incredible and we will treasure them forever! I couldn’t recommend Journey Family Photography enough to capture special family moments, thank you Krysa!!"

Kate and Beau

"Krysa of Journey Family Photography was amazing. She made our newborn photoshoot so easy by coming to us and it was such a lovely experience for us and our little baby. The end result was also incredible and we are so happy with the pics capturing our baby. I’d highly recommend Krysa for any photography needs."

Sarah and Andre

"Our shoot was picturesque, non pretentious, and we felt so held and seen in the beautiful landscape Krysa chose for us. We didn't have to pose or look any particular way, and Krysa took the time to connect with us in a real and true way before shooting. If you're reading this and aren't sure if it's worth booking, I'm here to tell you 'yes!'. Go for it."

Yana and Alby

"Having a shoot with Krysa was such a fun, and special experience for my daughter Millie and myself. Krysa beautifully captured the special bond that we have, and created a perfect reflection of our relationship. I cannot recommend Krysa, or a session with Journey Family Photography enough."

Ella and Millie

"Krysa managed to make two usually awkward people feel completely comfortable and at ease in front of the lens AND masterfully wrangled our overly energetic/enthusiastic pup! We love our photos so much—they really capture our family dynamic! We absolutely 10/10 recommend Journey for anyone looking for some beautiful family photos."

Maddy and Lauchlan

"Krysa captured our maternity photos beautifully! She made us feel comfortable and took amazing natural shots that don’t look forced or posed. She is extremely talented and I would highly recommend her to others. She found the perfect location for our shoot and she provided access to our photos super quickly. Loved the whole experience! Thanks Krysa!!"

Natalie and Jacob

"We had such a wonderful experience capturing our family photos with Krysa. She put us all at ease and did such an amazing job at getting our young children to participate and even listen to her gentle instructions. And the end result totally blew us away—we love all our photos and will treasure them dearly."

Kirsty and Mychal

"Krysa was amazing, we had a very active 3 year old in our photoshoot and she made him feel so welcome and included even when it wasn’t his turn, he even wanted Krysa to come back and play! Krysa captured our family perfectly and we are so obsessed with our photos!"

Kris and Claire

Jasmine and James

"We had the best time with Krysa, she was relaxed, went with the flow and allowed our son to be the adventurous boy he is exploring the location. We ended up with the best shots of us laughing, playing, and enjoying life without any force. We are so in love with our pictures. I cannot recommend her beautiful soul highly enough!"

Aimee and Kyle

"We loved our experience with Krysa. Her warm and friendly nature made not only us, but our two children feel comfortable and this is reflected in our photos.
