"Kristen is a JOY to work with! She has created endless memories for my family, capturing the most beautiful + intimate images.
She takes all the stress out of planning 'Pinterest Worthy' shoots. She scheduled a design consultation with me for my maternity, newborn and family pictures allowing me the opportunity to choose from the most beautiful dresses from her wardrobe and even has a wonderful hair + makeup team on hand to complete her unique experience. I HIGHLY recommend Greater Joy Portraits!"

"Kristen’s work is absolutely amazing! She has captured several significant moments within our family, each time her photos are more breathtaking than the last. Not only is she a talented artist but she’s kind, patient and super fun to work with! I can’t thank her enough for all the wonderful memories for years to come."
Michelle Mastalski
"Kristen is absolutely the best! A coworker recommended her Holiday session to me in 2017 for my then 1 year old and we haven't looked back. We now book with Kristen twice a year for Holiday photos and Birthday/Family sessions in the spring. Kristen has an amazing eye, is so patient with children and always has great recommendations for locations or to help complete my half baked idea for a theme. She is a pure joy to work with, always responsive, super accommodating, creative, easy going, helpful and organized. There's no one else I will trust to capture memories with my family, over the years to come, in beautiful still images... can't wait for our next photo session with Kristen & Greater Joy Portrait Studio."

"Greater Joy Portrait Studio by Kristen Barker is hands down the best experience you will ever receive. We have used Kristen many times for newborn, birthday and family photos. She is the most patient, kind, professional and nurturing person! We are always know we are going to love our photos, but let me tell you when you see yours for the first time you’re going to wonder how she does it. They are stunning and honestly just breathtaking, not only my photos, but all of the ones that we see. We can truly not recommend a more beautiful soul, when you choose Kristen for your photographer you will understand!"
Kristen Amato
"We love Kristen and the magic that she brings to all of her sessions! We have been clients since my daughter’s newborn pictures five and a half years ago. We would not trust anyone to capture our family so perfectly! Even twice during this pandemic she made us feel like things were almost normal again!"
Kelly Lovering
"My husband and I have been using Kristen to take our photos for 8 years now. She has been with us from our first pregnancy all the way through 3 kids. From maternity pictures to newborn photos to family photos Kristen does it all and each time she does it with perfection. She is kind, patient, calm, understanding and nurturing. She has a way with little ones and brings out the best in them and is able to capture those candid moments. We highly recommend Kristen and are so grateful to have shared such special moments with her. A picture is worth a thousand words and we are thankful we have gotten so many wonderful ones to cherish!!
Lori Wiacek
"We hired Kristen to capture my sons entire first year and she did not disappoint! She set up the newborn session nice and cozy and was so gentle with my son. She was so patient with my son while doing his sitter package and 1 year photos. She even took some pictures of all of us! Kristen was able to capture beautiful pictures that we will Treasure forever. Whenever I sent her an email she responded immediately! Definitely recommend her!"
Kerry Seaman
"Kristen Barker has been our family photographer for years! From maternity pictures to 8 year old Christmas pictures! Being a mom herself you get that family spirit as soon as your sessions start! She has always had a gift in creating perfect moments to capture! She is one of the most sweetest and caring people I know. Her pictures are breath taking and i can never fully thank her for all these memories she has given me. Kristen, you are truly a gift! Thank you for every moment!"
Mayghen Palomino
"My family and I have been using Kristen Barker for 10 years! We have used her for newborn, couple and family photos and she knocks it out of the park each and every time! I found her back in 2010 when I had my second child, and even when we moved to a different state 2.5 hours away, we still come back to have her take our family photos! She is just such a joy! She makes you feel comfortable and apart of the family, and then you see the pictures and are just blown away by her eye for greatness! Our last visit, we had 6 people ((4 kids)) and 2 puppies! Normally we are an overwhelming bunch, but Kristen is the epitome of grace under pressure! We recommend Kristen to everyone and anyone, you will be so happy you did!"
Amie Gomez
"We absolutely love Greater Joy. Kristen is so amazing at what she does. We just recently had new born photos taken of my daughter with her at her studio and everything was fantastic. I was so nervous because the baby was fussy and hungry and Kristen was able to keep the baby calm and was so patient when she needed to eat. The studio itself was beautiful and so clean and welcoming. I now have so many great pictures to display!"
Never hesitate to contact us! We love to help you.
