Having professional photos taken can be quite stressful. For most people, being in front of the camera doesn’t feel natural! You’re feeling nervous and awkward, wondering what locations or outfits are best. What about timing for the best light?

“It’s the first day of autumn! A time of hot chocolatey mornings, and toasty marshmallow evenings, and, best of all, leaping into leaves!” – Winnie the Pooh

I love fall, the change of the weather, the stunning colorful sunsets, the crisp cool evenings and a brief moment of sweater weather for us SoCals. And I am sharing my favorite cozy fall vibes.

I love when I take my clients from wedding guest to engagement, to wedding, maternity for their first born and now second born (and all the holidays in-between)!

Our favorite Los Angeles, Orange County and South Bay locations for 2022 Holiday Portrait Sessions!

It feels a bit early to be talking holidays, am I right?!? But, with our sessions booking up so fast and school already starting, I guess it’s time! So here are all the details for 2022 Holiday Sessions. I’ve changed things up a little bit for this 2022 Holiday Season! See below and book your session […]

Meet me! I’m Krista Mason, a photographer that helps women feel comfortable, confident and beautiful in front of the camera.

Whether it’s capturing the moments of your baby starting pre-school, the beautiful connection with your baby bump, sending your oldest off to college, buying your first home, starting a new business, adopting your snuggly furbaby, or just documenting how your little humans, pets or business have grown so much in one year, I am so excited to document this moment for your family. 

I often used to tell my husband, “I wish my images were better… I wish my business *fill in the ‘better’ blank*“. Then, he would look at my images and says they are great, but my reaction would be “yeah, but….”. We all do it, but the key is to be proud of what you […]

Welcome, baby Noa! Get ready for the most precious, princess of girly, newborn session! I love Mom’s style of natural and natural mixed with the pop of pinks and glam headbands! So freaking adorable.

I get this question a lot, and I thought it would be the perfect time to explain to you what a mini session is!

A typical portrait experience lasts an hour or more, a mini session only lasts 20 minutes. It is a simple quick session where you know it will just focus on getting a few great, key shots for your holiday card or to update the walls of your home or document a memory of this moment in time. This is great if you have kiddos (or husbands) that don’t love being in a lot of pictures!

Mini sessions allow current clients the potential to have multiple sessions throughout the year. It allows them to document the moments that change in an instant, and are a great way for a new client to have a small taste of the Krista Mason Photography experience.

I love when my past wedding vendors want to collaborate on product or branding sessions! It seriously brings me so much happiness!

The biggest part that I miss about weddings are the connections made with all my favorite vendors, so when I get a chance to continue to work with them in new ways, it is so fulfilling and heartwarming!
