let me photograph what makes your heart happy
Hello there! I’m Kristyna,
a family photographer based in Vancouver, BC.



Welcome to my happy little place where I showcase my art.
I've been photographing families from Lower Mainland for almost a decade! Thanks to my oldest daughter, my original muse, I found my life purpose in creating memories and documenting some of the most important milestones in people's lives.
And not just that, day-to-day life moments, such as hanging out at your home, playing with the train set your son is obsessed with, baking cookies that your kids love, wrapping your arms around your partner while kids go crazy at the playground right by your house, those moments are the closest to your heart and belong to your only. I can tell you now, those will be the images the whole family will treasure for years ahead.
When capturing your life story, I focus on the in betweens, the realness of your love, on things that uniquely belong to your family.
You being together.
I want you all to enjoy this by being yourself so I can show you how beautiful your life is.

"WOW WOW WOW! You are incredible at what you do! I am blown away that you caught so many beautiful moments. The editing, the cropping choices, the candid moments, the posed ones; I’m in love with it all! It’s going to be very hard choosing which ones to print. We are definitely going to want family photos with you again in the summer ☺️ and the next year and the next year and so on. Really amazing work 🙏🏻"

Had Kristyna for my maternity and newborn photo session and i am so happy that i made the right decision to have her for such an important event of my life. Loved her photography style - all natural no forced poses, candid and just the perfect captures. The final images are well edited - she kept all the original details and love love loved how the colors came out. Would definitley recommend her for any life event photoshoot as she knows well how to capture the love within your family and you”ll love the session as she makes you so comfortable, bringing out all the smiles and laughter.

Omg again (and as always) blown away by your captures. Not sure how you got pictures of Ayla smiling as she was such a grump, but you did!! Such an amazing album of the chaos, the calm and all the love. Thank you again so much! It’s always a pleasure to have our sessions with you!!

"I know it’s your work but thank you for being so warm and genuine from the start. From my first inquiry to finally making it happen! I love that you were patient and encouraging.
I love that you captured the realness of that day- because that’s our everyday. And I love it. It’s the ups and the tantrums; the mess and the little wins; the cries and the laughs in between. So thank you, thank you again. "
