Kristin did an exceptional job with our newborn's photos! The photos turned out beautifully and we'll always treasure them. We were amazed too how skilled she is with babies. She knew how to soothe our baby with just a few simple movements. She's clearly a professional. We'd highly recommend her! read more

We had such a wonderful experience working with Kristin! She was incredibly professional, warm, and patient, especially with our little ones. She made us feel comfortable right away, and was so great at engaging with our baby to get the sweetest, most natural shots. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful , clean, timeless, and full of emotion. You can tell she really understands lighting and composition, but more importantly, she knows how to create a calm and enjoyable experience for families. We're so happy with the results and will definitely be working with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and kind family photographer! read more

Wow!! Kristen was absolutely incredible. We were very unsure about doing newborn photos as we are first time parents and we have a very fussy baby. But she was incredible with him. She was able to keep him calm and get the best photos. She was also very respectful, washed her hands as soon as we got there, said we can be as involved as we would like and take photos during the session. And on top of it the photos are so precious. We are so happy we decided to this and have the memories for a lifetime!!! If you're looking for photos, she is the very best!! read more

Kristin was amazing. She was so patient with our newborn and made the whole experience so stress free!! Our photos turned out so perfect- we love them all. Book with Kristin ASAP!! :) read more

I used Kristin for our family photos this year and my family could not be happier. We even had our beagle puppy along for the adventure and Kristin handled her like a pro and got so many amazing photos of all of us with the dog--and some priceless shots of just the puppy and our daughter. When I initially reached out to Kristin I suggested a location and in her reply she mentioned she would be happy to shoot there but it is typically windy in the late afternoons and she suggested an alternative spot I might want to consider too. Her expertise saved me a bunch of hassle and heartache and produced beautiful photos. Kristin was quick and efficient and was able to provide us with a variety of backgrounds and poses in just 45 minutes of taking photos. I also received 3x the number of beautifully edited digital images I was expecting in less than a week after our photoshoot. I am recommending Kristin to all my friends and look forward to working with her again next year. Her knowledge of the area, coupled with her ability to easily navigate pets and kids, makes her an easy choice. If you work with Kristin you will receive countless priceless images of your family that you will enjoy for years to come. Contact her today. You won't regret it. read more

Kristin is AMAZING! I feel so lucky to have stumbled across her page! Our newborn photos came out incredible. I've literally scrolled through them over and over again. Beyond just her photo skills, Kristin is also professional and kind. She was awesome posing our little one and keeping her calm. I love that she has swaddles and headbands to change the baby into for different photos. We look forward to our next photo shoot! We will definitely contact Kristin again. read more

We found Kristin through her instagram. We liked the natural style of her newborn photos and that she had the option for a studio session. A lot of the other photographers we looked at just weren't our style with too many props or were in home sessions so Kristin ticked two of our biggest requirements. Booking was simple. I reached out through the form on her website and she answered quickly. I think we booked a date within 8 hours of me first reaching out. Her booking process was simple. Agreed on a date, signed an agreement and sent a deposit. Our studio session was wonderful. Kristin was warm and her studio was perfect for the session. We have an older child who is 15 months and Kristin was great with her. She was prepared with toys and little tricks to keep her interested in the session and interacting with her baby brother. Their photos together brought tears to my eyes, they're so beautiful and captured them the way I'll think of my babies forever. She was efficient taking the photos without ever making us feel rushed. We felt so at ease with her which I think showed in our photos. We will book Kristin for all of our family photos in the future. Thank you so much Kristin for sharing your gift with us. read more

Kristin is amazing!!! She was very easy to communicate with to book the session and answered my questions quickly. She is a baby whisper, capturing the sweetest pictures of my little newborn quickly. She also made the photoshoot so much fun for my 2 older sons (with props, silly questions and even some sweet treats) and loved that she captured genuine smiles. We are so happy with our family/newborn photos and would love to have Kristin shoot our family again. read more

I contacted Kristin during a busy holiday season. She was thankfully able to fit us in. She did such a beautiful job with our newborn and family photos. She was even able to get our rowdy 3 year old to participate. We are so thankful to have the photos and definitely hope she will take our photos again! read more

I found Kristin while googling Palos Verdes photographers and was not disappointed! We were doing a girls staycation with my grandma, mom, and sister, and wanted photos since we don't get the chance to travel together very often. Kristin is so nice and got to know each of us and captured our different personalities perfectly. It looks like everyone is giving her great reviews for working with children, but I can say she's great with all generations! read more

I was looking to take family photos of me and my daughter and a photographer recommended Kristin. She was quick to respond to my e-mails/texts and I was able to book a photo session with her. In person, she is absolutely the sweetest and friendliest photographer I've encountered. Despite the weather (It rained the day before and sprinkled the day of our shoot) she captured beautiful photos of us and I couldn't be anymore happier with the final results. She made the shoot easy going and my daughter had a blast the whole time. In my opinion, the candid photos she got of us were the best; but I love all the photos! Her pricing is reasonable and worth the investment. The turn around time to receive my digital file of photos was a little under a week. Take in mind, every session is different and mayrequire more time for editing on her part, so be patient because you will not be disappointed =) Thank you again Kristin and will definitively book more sessions with you!!!! read more

Kristin is an absolute professional in every sense. She captures the beauty so well in all of her photos. With our fussy newborn, she worked her magic to help him relax and get gorgeous shots. She is also so personable and friendly. She really understands what families need and helps to get them amazing photos. Thank you Kristin! read more

I literally cannot speak enough wonderful praises about Kristin, her work, her demeanor, and our experience. I reached out to her via email, her response time was very fast and very detailed. She was so easy to book with and so patient with all my questions/inquiries. We booked her for a family maternity shoot and will be booking her for the newborn shoot and some headshots for my husband. She is so flexible and has a great way of capturing your vision and supporting you along the way. She made my little one so comfortable and the shoot fun for her-and the photos came out better than what I was envisioning. Her turn around time on the photos was super quick and easy to download. Looking forward to our next shoot together! Supporting local business is always something we try to do, and we would 10/10 recommend her for anyone in the SoCal area! Her pricing was, what we felt, very appropriate to what we were looking for and for what we received in return! She also has a studio option in addition to onsite which is very convenient! read more

We found Kristin here on Yelp and decided to go with her based off the fantastic reviews we saw. Scheduling an appointment was simple and when we arrived I was happy to see a lovely photo studio warmed and ready for our photo shoot. Kristin was so gentle and skilled at keeping our infant son calm during the shoot, we wish we could hire her as a babysitter! The photo's came out wonderful and we are so happy that we decided to go to Kristin for our newborn photos. The hardest part for us is choosing which of the many great pictures to use for our baby announcements. Thanks Kristin!!! read more

Words cannot describe Kristin's talent and charisma! Her style was exactly what I was looking for. My family and I did our very first family photo shoot and Kristin made the process seamless! She is organized, efficient and truly knows how to work with small children (I have 2 small boys). As much stress there is with taking those "perfect photos" for a Mom especially, Kristin made it so much fun and light! Looking forward to doing more family photo sessions with Kristin in the future! read more

Kristin was amazing with our family! We have four kids ages 5 and under - and she managed to get great pictures of everyone in the same picture. It was a miracle! She even worked with us to reschedule our session due to rain and worked within our busy schedule to get it done that same week. Thank you so much Kristin! We very highly recommend her as a photographer! read more

Kristin was beyond incredible. She shot our extended family a week ago in Newport Beach. Leading up to the photoshoot she was responsive, accommodating, and professional. During the shoot she was pure magic. She immediately put everyone (including a tentative 3 year old) at ease. She worked quickly with warmth and positive energy to get great shots of 4 family groups. The ultimate win: she somehow managed to get *multiple* shots of 10 adults + 3 kids (under 3) where everyone was smiling with eyes open!!! She also turned around edited shots in one week! We've never had such beautiful and joyous family photos. We're half tempted to fly back to Newport next year, just for her photos... Kristin is the most amazing family photographer - book her now! read more

Kristin did an outstanding job photographing our baby. She responded quickly to our request and provided great instructions on how to prepare for the baby shoot. Went very smoothly! Kristin is great with babies. Our boy didn't even wake up. She has a beautiful, clean and sanitized studio equipped with cute blankets, baskets and many other props. She is very friendly and professional. Most importantly, the pics turned out beautifully. We were sent an email with a link to the photos in under a week. Highly recommended! read more

We have had Kristin take our family pictures twice now. So very happy with our pictures we absolutely love them! Thank you Kristen for these beautiful pictures. read more

Kristin Eldridge Photography - Family shot - Session Photography Near Me - Long Beach, California

Kristin did such a lovely job! We are in love with our maternity pictures! She also did such a wonderful job working with our almost-two year old, rambunctious son for our pictures! She came very ready, with extra snacks and toys to keep his attention! She was very responsive, with great ideas for settings! I also really appreciated her beautiful collection of maternity gowns clients can wear for the shoot! And she even allowed me to come in before to see how it looked on me before the actual shoot! Though we did an outdoor shoot, I got to see her indoor studio. It was beautiful, clean, and a great space to for a shoot! I highly recommend her! Thanks again Kristin! read more

We did our maternity shoot with Kristen. It was a very special moment for us, as we were capturing our rainbow baby pregnancy. Her genuinely kind response to our inquiry resonated with us, which made us very comfortable working with her. We love her photography style and she is such a joy to work with! Kristin is super friendly, flexible, kept in great communication with us and was highly responsive. During the photoshoot she gave great directions and the photos turned out AMAZING! We feel very lucky we found her and will be using her for our newborn photos. read more

Kristin is a miracle worker! How she got our rambunctious goldendoodle and our 2 year old to smile and look at the camera, I have no idea. We were also running late into our photo session and she was still able to take amazing photos. Highly recommended! read more

So thankful to have found Kristin to capture sweet photos of our growing family! My husband and I Were finding it difficult to secure a photographer near Orange County that was not only reasonably priced but that didn't make the photos all about the props and outfits the baby is wearing. We wanted a photographer that focused on our daughter and on us as a family in the images. Someone who could capture genuine moments and Kristin did exactly that. She was also so caring, sweet, and professional while offering prompt responses to any of our questions. Highly recommend her! read more

Amazing! Not only are the photos beautiful, Kristin was awesome to work with. She made our baby boy happy and kept him entertained the whole time. We didn't have to do anything! Her studio was clean, ready, and had great lighting! read more

Working with Kristin has been so wonderful! She took the photos for both my maternity shoot (with a toddler) and for our in-home newborn shoot. The first thing my husband and I noticed at our maternity shoot was how wonderful she was with our almost 2 year old son. He can be stubborn and doesn't always like to follow directions, but Kristin worked her magic with toys and snacks and was able to get my toddler to actually look at the camera and smile. I was amazed!! We did our newborn shoot in our home which I would describe as "chaotic" because we're about to move out.. But Kristin was cool, calm, and collected despite all the craziness going on. She was again able to get great shots of us as a family including my crazy toddler. The lighting in our home wasn't great but she was still able to get amazing shots of us in the nursery. The newborn photos are so sweet and I will cherish them forever. read more

We had such a great experience for our newborn+ family photos. Kristin was great with our toddlers and newborn, she made the morning so easy and peaceful. Her studio was really sweet and clean. Our pictures turned out beautiful. I can't wait for our next family photo shoot, I highly recommend her as a photographer! read more

Just recently brought our identical twin girls to Kristin for newborn photos. We were so impressed by her professionalism and how she was able to keep our babies so calm and content throughout the shoot. We absolutely love the photos and look forward to working wIth her in the future for all our family photos. read more

Kristin is one of the best photographers in the area. She is just INCREDIBLE!! We cannot get over how absolutely perfect our photos turned out after our session(s) with her. We are so grateful for Kristin and the memories she's captured for us so beautifully. We truly cannot recommend Kristin enough and will absolutely be working with her to capture more memories to come! read more

So I found Kristin from Yelp during the holidays last year. I'm typically scrambling to do family holiday photos. I loved the prices of the mini-sessions Kristin had on her website, except we couldn't get all the family together on the dates that were left because...I'm was so last minute. Kristin had the great ideas on Pinterest worthy photos and I'm sorry Kristin, I totally R&D it (rip off and duplicate), except it was a major fail. Ultimately, we mailed out blown-up blurry holiday photos that were soooo bad! The new year rolled around and a wonderful family business opportunity presented itself, calling for a new website, business cards and social media photos. I really loved Kristin's vibe from her photos and contacted her to do a specific kind of photo shoot. She was sweet and polite in her response and said she doesn't specialize in headshots and recommended another colleague. I clarified my vision for what we were looking for and voila, she absolutely made it happen! She recommended the perfect location. We had a bit of back and forth because of the weather and then I had a sick kiddo, but she was very accommodating. On picture day, she led us through the shots, made it super fun for the whole family, and even got our normally reserved 5 year old to do an ENTIRE line up of Fort Night dances on video! We totally found our family photographer and will sign up wayyy in advance for our mini-sessions! Mahalo Kristin! read more

We wanted to get family photos while on vacation. I found Kristin's website and reached out. From the start she was very personable and helpful. She suggested a great location for our family photos. She was go good with our daughter and got some precious smiles! Thank you Kristin! read more

Kristin is an amazing photographer! I love all my family photos. She has a true talent of capturing the moment.

I was recommended Kristin by another photographer in the area who wasn't able to work with us due to scheduling. Kristin took portraits of my 4.5 month old baby in her studio which turned out amazing. She was able to squeeze us in super quickly which I very much appreciated. We did a mini session which worked out perfectly for baby. She was so good with my baby and helped keep her in a good mood to get the perfect shots quickly and avoid any meltdowns. I was very nervous about how my baby would handle the session, but Kristin helped make it a great experience for both of us. She also delivered the finished photos so quickly. read more

Kristin was so fantastic to work with. We just had our first baby and wanted newborn photos taken. We reached out to Kristin once we were able to bring our new baby home from the hospital and she worked to fit us into her schedule. We loved her comfy little studio. She made the session so easy and we love the way the photos turned out. We will definitely be hiring her again for family photos in the future! read more

Back in June I booked Kristin. I waited til the last minute to book a newborn shoot. I wasn't sure I was gonna do one but I'm so glad it did. I was unprepared for the most part but Kristin had everything together. She was very professional and personable. Our photos were fantastic. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I will definitely use her in the future for future family shoots. I highly recommend her. Thank you Kristin! read more

Prior to booking with Kristin, My concerns were that my 5 year old son is usually reserved around strangers and would put up a fight as he usually does during photo shoots and my 2 week old daughter would cry when taken out of her routine. Kristin however made my son feel comfortable as soon as he walked in and she had a way of keeping my daughter calm throughout the session. Kristin's studio is very clean and her professionalism was nothing short of what we were expecting. Her experience and expertise showed in our photos and we couldn't have been happier sharing our photos with family and friends. I would highly recommend Kristin. read more

Kristin's work is nothing short of amazing! She worked her magic and somehow made pictures with my completely uncooperative toddler seem so natural. Her patience, amazing eye, and ninja like moves ( absolutely needed to be able to catch my toddler at the perfect time ) made our maternity/family photography session so memorable. I can't wait to book her again for another session to include our newborn. read more

KRISTIN IS AMAZING!!!! A good friend of mine, uses Kristin for holiday photos, and recommended her for my daughter's first birthday pictures. BEST REC EVER. Just got the photos back and am over the moon. She comes with a full bag of tricks--perfect for little ones, and is just a joy to work with. She makes you feel comfortable and relaxed from the get-go. She's so sweet and patient and you feel like you've known her for years right off the bat. Super personable--my kids loved her and warmed up right away. Cannot say enough about how well our shoot went! Thanks so much, Kristin!! xxxxxxx read more

Kristin did a fantastic job with our newborn. She was prompt with scheduling and very communicative with the whole process. When we arrived she had everything ready and the room was warm and comfortable for our little one. She took the best care during the session to keep our baby comfortable and cozy. She was so patient with the poses and took her time changing out wraps and accessories to keep him sleeping and happy. I couldn't have asked for better pictures from a newborn session! We got the photos back in less than a week and Kristin did a fantastic job with editing! We also got sneak peeks just a few days later. Overall it was a great and easy experience for two new mommies thanks to Kristin. Thank you! read more

Kristin was great to work with and was very patient and gentle with our little one, who didn't cooperate and stayed awake for half of the shoot. And the photos turned out adorable! Highly recommend! read more
