Capturing Love & Planning Adventures
I’m Kristin, a photographer, videographer, and travel agent passionate about capturing love and creating unforgettable experiences. Whether it’s an adventurous elopement or a meaningful family trip, I’m here to help you feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
Inclusivity is at the heart of everything I do. As a mom of three, including each with their own abilities, and someone who lives with disabilities myself, I create space where all bodies, all love, and all stories are welcome.
What we do
At Desert Bloom Photo + Travel Co, I specialize in capturing meaningful stories through inclusive photography, cinematic videography, and personalized travel planning. Whether you’re exchanging vows on a mountaintop, celebrating a growing family, or chasing sunsets abroad, I create experiences rooted in connection and care.
My work is designed for couples, families, and individuals who want more than just pretty pictures—they want their moments preserved with heart and authenticity. From luxury elopements and destination weddings to maternity, family, and lifestyle sessions, I’m here to guide and support you. I also offer curated travel agent services to help you plan unforgettable adventures with ease.
Every service is tailored with accessibility and body-positive values in mind.
No matter your journey, I’m honored to be part of telling your story.
I am currently in the midst of rebranding and rebuilding, so you may see some "construction" across my social media and my website for a bit. Not to worry though, as we are still here and now booking again.
SHARE YOUR STORY.
I love helping others, whether that's capturing a special bond between a growing family, to achieving a major milestone, or to any other spectacular moments along the way. I want to be the one who can share your story, no matter the distance.
Check out my work, and inquire for questions or information.
I'm happy to help wherever I can.
Let's connect and create some magic together!
Travel planning
Planning a vacation should feel exciting, not overwhelming. As a certified travel agent, I help couples, families, groups and solo travelers book unforgettable getaways without the guesswork. From relaxing all-inclusive resorts and cruises to international sightseeing and theme park magic, I make the entire process stress-free. My travel planning services come at no additional cost, and I can often transfer your current booking to me so you don’t miss out on extra perks or upgrades.
I proudly work with all types of travelers and specialize in inclusive, accessible trips that suit your unique needs.Whether you're looking for a quick weekend escape or a fully customized itinerary abroad, I’m here to help make it easy and memorable. Every person deserves some adventure.
A WEDDING DAY THAT FEELS LIKE AN ADVENTURE
Vow & Voyage Collections are crafted for couples who dream beyond the ordinary. These luxury elopement experiences include everything you need for a beautifully intentional day, with photography coverage starting at 4 hours, personalized travel planning, curated vendor referrals, and even legal officiating when needed.
Each collection is thoughtfully designed to remove the stress and overwhelm of traditional wedding planning and replace it with something more intimate, personal, and unforgettable. I’ll work with you to design a one-of-a-kind celebration—whether you’re exchanging vows on a cliffside in Maui, chasing sunsets in the Arizona desert, or whispering “I do” on a hidden beach in Europe. As both your photographer and certified travel planner, I take care of the logistics, coordination, and creative storytelling so you can focus entirely on each other.
All travel for you and your partner is included, so your only job is to show up, breathe it in, and say yes in a place that feels like magic. Whether it’s a windswept coastline, a desert at golden hour, or a hidden gem across the globe, your story deserves to be felt, not just photographed.
