Kristen Bowen Photography
Romantic, film-inspired wedding photography that preserves the emotion, beauty, and moments of your wedding day.
Based in Indianapolis, available for destination weddings.
Authentic and Intimate
I specialize in capturing the genuine essence of your love story, focusing on those candid and intimate moments that define your journey. With an unobtrusive approach, I immerse myself in the celebration, ensuring that every stolen glance, shared laughter, and tender touch are preserved with unparalleled finesse. I love capturing beautiful pieces of art that transports you back to the emotion of your wedding day.
Joyful and Timeless
I bring a fusion of candid and editorial timelessness to your wedding day experience. While I have a passion for creating “wow” images and pieces of art, I also ensure that your celebration is not just captured but radiates the genuine happiness of the moment. We will have moments when I direct and pose, but we will also have moments of natural love and joy. I want photos that feel real and for the true emotion of the day to come through.
Bespoke and Professional
I am involved in the planning and preparation process, meeting with clients multiple times to create the perfect wedding photography timeline, assisting with family photo lists, and am available to help with any questions you might have. My team and I show up to your wedding fully prepared with a plan in hand, which allows us to enjoy and experience your day along with you. A wedding day should be about love, family and fun, and I work very hard to make sure my clients have the most enjoyable experience on their wedding day, all while delivering the gallery of their dreams.
