Yuba City Family Photographer

Do you want beautiful photos of your family but are worried that your kids won’t be able to sit still through a photo session? You have come to the right place, because we will not be sitting still for long! As your Yuba City Family Photographer, I will give your active rambunctious family plenty of opportunities to play, connect, love on each other and move during our photo session. Your kids will have so much fun running around, playing games and cuddling with you, and you will receive absolutely amazing photographs of your authentic selves playing and loving on each other. With 15+ years of experience working with kids of all ages, I connect with children of all ages and personality types, and know how to make photo sessions fun and engaging for everyone.

Who is Kristina Geddert?

Hi, I’m Kristina! If you are looking for a Yuba City Family Photographer who is exceptionally skilled and experienced working with all kinds of kids and will help everyone in your family have a great time, you have come to the right place! Before my career as a photographer, I was an elementary school teacher for 10 years, a camp counselor, a preschool teacher, and a swim instructor at a swim school specifically for children with disabilities! I have seen it all and know how to connect with even the wildest or shyest child. I come to photo sessions with a whole host of tools and tricks to help every single session go well with happy kids and happy smiles for the camera. From Kiki, my lens monkey, who helps kids dance and smile, to Charlie the teddy who comforts shy children, I bring all the bells and whistles to help your kids have fun AND get wonderful photos! But don’t take it from me! Here are what some of my clients have to say:

Yuba and Sutter Counties have a vast variety of different beautiful photo locations from urban to natural. Whether seeking a natural backdrop of the Yuba River or Sutter Buttes, or looking for the urban red brick look of Marysville downtown and Yuba County Library, there is something for everyone. I know where all of the best seasonal spots are from the Yuba City almond tree blossoms in February to the perfect fall colors backdrops in Wheatland and Browns Valley in fall.
