I'm Krista
The heart behind Render & Bloom.
I’m a portrait and lifestyle photographer with a deep love for capturing honest connection, soft emotion, and the kind of moments you want to hold onto forever. What began as a creative outlet has grown into a space where families, women, and everyday souls can see themselves with tenderness and truth.
My work is rooted in simplicity, natural light, and the quiet beauty found in real relationships. Whether I'm documenting a family’s laughter among the trees, a mama in the sweetness of anticipation, or a professional stepping confidently into their story, my goal is always the same: to create images that feel like you.
Photography is my main love, but it’s also shaped by the rest of my creative world — the colors I paint with, the textures I’m drawn to, the small moments that inspire me. All of it informs how I see and how I shoot.
I’m based in Portland, Oregon, serving families and creatives who want photos that feel warm, grounded, and genuinely lived-in. I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to create something meaningful with you.
