YOUR FOREVER STORY

Your wedding photos deserve to stand the test of time, while capturing your soul-pounding joy for today.

My job while telling Your Forever Story is to capture every moment of your day, big and small, and have SO MUCH FUN doing it! For as long as you live, you will be telling stories of your wedding day- but nothing will tell them better than these photos.

Contrary to what you might THINK I would say as a wedding photographer, I actually don’t think your wedding photos are the most important part of your day - LIVING IT is! I’m there to freeze those moments of living fully, forever. That girl walking in the room with a high pitched squeal that it’s your wedding day!? That’s me. The one passing over a glass of champagne while you kick your shoes off to dance?! Still me. The one reminding you, the one who slouches in photos (yes, you, lol) to stand up straight? Yep. Definitely me.

THIS IS YOUR DAY, AND I CAN'T WAIT TO BE A PART OF IT.

    “Where do I start? How about by telling you that your wedding simply will not be the same if you do not hire Kerri. Period. She will make you feel comfortable, confident, relaxed, less stressed and somehow, MORE excited than you already are for your wedding. She is one of the most genuine, authentic, hype-soul, kind-hearted, and talented humans I have ever met. Not only are you hiring a 10/10 photographer for your big day, but you are hiring a real friend. She cares so much about you, how you feel, how your people feel, and ensures you have the BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. On your wedding day, sometimes the smallest gestures go the longest way and that is a detail I will always remember because of Kerri. Enough about her INSANELY AMAZING PERSONALITY, HAVE YOU SEEN HER PHOTOS AND EDITING SKILLS? She was graced with the most perfect eye, hand, heart, brain and soul for photos and capturing the moment that is most authentically you and your spouse. She captured us so wonderfully that I wouldn’t want to remember the day any other way. It’s exactly how I felt in all these moments. I could cry again and again thinking about Kerri and the impact that she had on me and my wedding day. Was I 100% less stressed about the entire day because of Kerri? Yes. Was I 100% more fed and hydrated because of Kerri? Yes. Was our wedding party more happy and felt more appreciated and respected because of Kerri? Yes. Did my mom, dad and brothers absolutely love Kerri? Yes. Was I kept in line and on time because of Kerri? Yes. Was Kerri way beyond a “vendor” to Scott and me? Yes. If this review does not convey to you that you NEED TO HIRE KERRI CARLQUIST TO PHOTOGRAPH YOUR WEDDING. I think we need to sit down at dinner and I need to talk some sense into you. Please, please make the best wedding decision possible (besides choosing a 10/10 spouse) and hire Kerri to stand with you on the biggest day of your life!“

  • "Book Kerri not just for her talent at capturing the little memories and big moments of your wedding day; but for her kind spirit, laser focus, masterful planning, and warm heart."

    “One look at Kerri’s Instagram and you can see how she so effortlessly captures the essence of every couple that she works with. We want to highlight how far beyond just a wedding photographer Kerri goes for her couples. She seamlessly manages to act as a photographer, wedding planner, family/bridal party wrangler, traffic director, hype girl, therapist and friend all at once. Booking Kerri as our wedding photographer was by far the best decision that we made!

    Leading up to our wedding, Kerri checked in with us constantly, and her organization skills were unmatched by any other group that we worked with.

    On the big day, Kerri was the star of the show. She wrangled the family, kept constant coordination with our other vendors, brought the energy of ten people to the wedding party, and stepped in to fix things throughout the entire course of the day. We were so confident in the success of our wedding because Kerri was leading the charge. Our photos turned out to be everything we could have dreamed of and more. Book Kerri not just for her talent at capturing the little memories and big moments of your wedding day; but for her kind spirit, laser focus, masterful planning, and warm heart.”

  • "Kerri proved that investing in her as our wedding photographer was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day!"

    “BOOK KERRI, just do it! I knew the second I got engaged I would be having Kerri along with me for the ride! She did our engagement photos, which only got us SO much more hyped for the wedding (they turned out better than we could have ever imagined). After that Kerri was constantly checking in on the wedding planning and providing her expertise. Flash forward to our day, Kerri proved that investing in her as our wedding photographer was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day. Kerri brought an unparalleled warmth & energy that helped make the day feel so fun, and made us so comfortable in front of the camera. Kerri's personality matched with her insane talent resulted in photos that captured the genuine happiness of our day, that we'll be able to look back at for years to come and remember each moment as it was. Not only is Kerri extremely talented behind the camera, but she truly cares about her couples. She was my go to for vendor recommendations, my hype woman when I found my dress & and on our big day (no seriously I don't think anyone has ever told me I'm beautiful so many times, lol love you forever), and basically a coordinator (helping us get photo permits, developing and keeping our detailed timeline, and communicating with vendors) all in one. If you're questioning if Kerri is the right photographer for you, go ahead and book her already - she will be worth it!”
