I’m Krista, a soon-to-be magazine publisher, self-taught photographer, professional marketing consultant, quintessential Pisces, lover of handmades, single, 32-year-old Southern transplant with a fetish for words, hand-written letters mailed with a stamp, daydreaming, Williams-Sonoma, Valentine’s Day candy, cheese platters, glitter, party hostessing, the Bachelor(ette) when it’s not stupid (oxymoron intended), and climbing back into bed as soon as I get out of the shower (it’s the coziest!).
The last couple years have been a maze of discovery and understanding as I’ve sought to make sense of a substantial job loss, singledom (if you know a single guy, hit me up, I’m always accepting applications and set ups), and the intersection of my life and my faith. And I’m realizing this blog is where my “becoming” plays out. I suppose you could say, that that is its purpose–its theme. And I’m happy to have you here.
By way of announcement, you can also find me:
- on Facebook (subscribers only, unless we’ve actually met in person)
- on Instagram (looooooove the Instagram, which we call “The Iggy” in my house)
- on Pinterest
- on email
A few other details?
I cheat when I play pool (and and I get away with it every time, which has everything to do with long eyelashes).
I have a substantial number of high-heeled shoes in my closet that have never been worn.
I think my birthday is the greatest holiday every invented.
And I believe one can never have too many sets of dishes.
Lastly, if you’re wondering where to dive in, here are my favorite posts.
Krista, your photography is amazing. I first saw your work on Megan Sollis’ facebook, when you photographed she and a group of girls. I have started a non-profit organization centered around strengthening women. I was hoping I could use some of your incredible photos of women together. Of course, if you are willing, we will list you as a sponsor and make sure you have a proper link to your photography site.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks!

Do you make wedding dresses? I looked up Utah Seamstress and this is where one of the first links took me. I saw you made the cute bridesmaid dresses and one other, but neither were a wedding dress and those were the only two I found, so I’m just wondering do you usually make dresses, or just do the pictures and those were special occasions?
