Welland Photographer

Creating timeless images of love, laughter, and real connection in Welland and beyond.

As a Welland-based photographer, this city holds a special place in my heart. It’s where I live, raise my family, and run Kristine Marie Photography. Being local means I know all the best photo spots, lighting patterns at different parks, and even how to pivot when the weather shifts. I bring that hometown knowledge and connection into every session.

Kristine was my wedding photographer in 2021! She was amazing ! She helped with the engagement photos we had done in 2020 since I had no clue where to go for photos. She was fantastic! She made you feel like you were part of her family! On the wedding day she came to my house to photograph the boys and was super amazing with them! She then came to photograph the girls at a different location and she just knew what to do and what photos to take! The ceremony and photos and reception she took so many photos that are great and perfect and bring me back to that day every time I look at them !

Kristine was amazing on my wedding day! She arrived on time, was super organized, and took incredible photos. We got many beautiful photos with our family, had a really fun time with her during our couples' shoot, and she got great candids during our reception. Kristine was very unobtrusive, many of my guests didn't even realize we had a photographer! I would recommend her again and again to anyone looking for an event photographer <3

Marissa & Remy

Kristine was an absolute dream to work with! We had our wedding date and overall plan change dramatically multiple times due to the pandemic, and Kristine was so accommodating and flexible. I am not someone who feels comfortable in front of a camera and she really brought out the best of me on my wedding day! It was super helpful to have the engagement photoshoot included in our package to help us figure out what works best for us before the big day. I couldn’t be happier with the quality of my photos. Thank you Kristine for the beautiful memories!
