As a yoga instructor and dancer, I have need for photos ranging from movement and full body shots, to detail and commercial head shots. She has delivered on every level; all while running the shoots in a timely and organized manner. I always feel comfortable in front of her lens, knowing she will always help me and my business partners look our best. Working with her feels like a collaboration every step of the way. On the post-production end, Krescent is very timely and thorough about getting the top shots edited and then takes the time to hand pick the best shots for your needs. Her touch-up style is light but flattering and as a fine artist, she really understands color and tone. She always imbues the shots with artistry and soul, yet has a rigorous work ethic so you know your deadlines can be met.

She is timely through the editing and selection process, and over all a joy to work with! I reccomend her highly for your photographic needs. My online shop, Lucuwear.com is a fine showcase of the great talent Krescent shares when working with the models and her clients.

In this day and age, for small businesses, video is essential for standing out from the crowd and…read morecommunicating who you are. There is only so much differentiation that you can achieve through website design and copy, so it's tough to stand out with a website alone. I wanted to stand out from the sea of wedding photographers to my ideal clients by making clear to them my quirky, laid back, yet analytical personality [so I've been told ;) ] and unique approach to photography. I wanted them also to hear my voice and sense my energy. I'd seen other photographers' videos and while many were pretty, none really conveyed to me who they were as people or photographers. Having a Videokard made has been, no exaggeration, one of the best, if not the best, decision I made for my business. I've received accolades for the video across the board - from past clients, friends, and industry peers. I've also experienced a pronounced uptick in photography inquiries. And, best of all, the video just feels like, well, ME - the best version of me that I could have hoped for someone to capture. This is thanks not only to Karrie's considerable marketing and videography experience, but also her ability to intuit what shines about both your personality and business and highlight those in a video that is professional and engaging. Lastly, the whole experience was easy as pie. Though Karrie has an organized and systematic way of tackling a video project (making the process efficient), she still tailors the content/look/feel of the video to the individual business and is able to roll with the punches if you request editing changes. Rest assured that your video will look like no one else's (in a good way). My advice: book her before the secret gets out and her prices go sky high!

As a professional wedding photographer, I knew that part of what would give me an extra edge with…read morestanding out to potential clients is having my personality conveyed on my website. I had been searching for a videographer to help me with this but when I found Karrie, I knew I was going to be in good hands. She's not just a videographer, she's a marketing genius, a fabulous editor and director AND a music composer as well! LOVE HER. She made the whole process really easy. From the initial meeting, she asked really smart questions to help focus my video to properly communicate what I wanted. And she was with me each step of the way, addressing my concerns and making me feel relaxed and walking me through the overwhelming process of being in front of the camera. Her gentle understanding and expert guidance was a constant throughout the Videokard process, something that I really valued and couldn't thank her enough for. She truly went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the final product! And the video that we made for my business is exactly what I want. (Showing off my down-to-earth but humorous personality? Check. Communicating my industry experience? Check. Making me look professional? Check. Composing a Wes Anderson-esque soundtrack? CHECK!) I've received so many compliments about the final video and I've been told over and over again that it really captures my personality and it feels like you know me by the end of it. That's exactly what I wanted. I HIGHLY recommend Videokard to anyone who's looking to bring their business to the next level. Seriously, worth it. Don't believe me?

Her calm presence made the wedding day itself go smoothly and she was able to document hilarious (and meaningful) moments with our guests that we would have otherwise missed. She was somehow everywhere at once and captured all the important moments unobtrusively.

It allowed me to worry less on one thing while working on other parts of planning.
