Karianne Munstedt Portrait Reviews

Karianne is such a wonderful photographer. I was so excited to participate in her Unfiltered project. It requires a lot of trust and vulnerability to bare it all, but she made it so easy. The studio is clean and beautiful and full of fun wardrobe options! I will definitely get photos taken by her again.

I recently had a photoshoot with Karianne and it was an AMAZING experience!!! I've known Karianne for a long time, so I knew I was going to have a great time but she really blew my expectations out of the water. I highly encourage anyone reading this to book a session. You won't regret it!

I was so nervous to do the Unfiltered session with Karianne, but I decided to trust her and do it. The most amazing thing is how comfortable I felt during the session. She was so chill, so encouraging, and so genuine! Normally I HATE being photographed, and I've NEVR done such a vulnerable photo shoot (no makeup, no hair styling, no fancy clothes, etc). And yet, the entire time I felt like I was just visiting with a good friend. I went into this experience only planning to buy a few images, but somehow I fell in love with my older curvier body as I saw them and ended up getting an album! Every time I look at the images, I'm able to accept my changing body a little more and give her grace and love! Thank you so much Karianne! You are a miracle worker!

Easiest 5-star review I have ever given. Kari nailed everything when it came to our employee photography/headshots. She brought her studio to us and was super easy to get in touch with about everything - she was also just a blast for myself and everyone to be around. I would most definitely recommend Kari for anyone that is looking for a photographer to take some corporate-style headshots.

My family had so much fun making lasting memories with Kari! She made sure the experience was enjoyable for all the littles AND the adults, helping us capture the authenticity of everyone's personality through fun poses! She picked a great outdoor location and the final images were beautiful! Highly recommend!

Last week at our Women 4 Women monthly event with the Peoria Chamber of Commerce, we invited Karianne to present her "Sisters, Sips & Selfies" program! If you run or are a part of a networking woman's group, I recommend you bring this fun program to your group! Karianne skillfully walked the ladies through a great discussion about why many women don't like to take selfies because of body image, vanity or just being self-conscious. Then we talked about how selfies can be useful personalizing our businesses. She shared learning tips on how to take better selfies and then she let us loose to have some fun! I loved all the laughter and the connections that were made around selfies! Karianne, thank you for sharing your vibrant personality and your talent teaching us how to bring out the essence of who we truly are. We had such a fun evening!

Thank you for the most amazing headshots! I only wish I would have done this sooner. Karianne was a professional from the start to the end. I love my photos and I will be back for more!!

I had an absolute blast at my photoshoot with Karianne! She made me feel comfortable and beautiful and I couldn't be happier with how my photos turned out. Karianne has such warmth and positivity, making it easy to be your natural self during the photo shoot, which shows in the finished product. Her creativity was refreshing as well, which generated some fun and unexpected pictures (see review phots)! Book yourself a session with Karianne and I guarantee you will leave feeling confident, beautiful and seen.

Karianne went out of her way to make me feel comfortable with the branding photoshoot before and during the actual day of the photoshoot. Her studio is amazing. I love how she worked with me to have the best experience possible while being photographed! The photos themselves turned out really well too. I highly recommend the experience!

I had a wonderful experience with Karianne during my photo session! She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process and I couldn't have been more happier with the results.

I am SO glad I chose Karianne for my branding photo shoot! We first met by zoom which was so great to get a feel for her and for her to get to know my personality even before the shoot. The day of, I knew I was in great hands. She had everything in order for each shot and outfit change. I loved having hair and makeup at the studio the whole time to change things as we went. Karianne made me feel like a star! Her energy was up and creative the whole time. The pictures turned out better than I even hoped for!! We captured a wide range of shots and poses so each one was really unique. Taking on a project like this seemed so stressful, and I didn't know where to start. Karianne made the whole experience comfortable and stress free!! I will definitely utilize Karianne for photos in the future!

Karianne is fantastic. I needed some updated headshots. I wanted them to be a mi of professional and more expressive of me. She hit all of my requests and more. The experience was friendly, comfortable, professional, and efficient. She listened and took the pics I wanted, and had creative ideas that made it better. I highly recommend Karianne Munstedt for all your professional needs.

Karianne Mundstet Portrait and team are an amazing bunch to work with. My first experience was on a business trip in Spokane and a last minute opportunity presented itself. I loved my session so much that a few years later, I booked another session. I travelled to AZ for the session and it was worth the time and money. I once again had an amazing experience and my photos elevated me, reflecting my personality and professionalism. Kari and her team are magical!

I've used Karianne for 4 different shoots now for my business and once for a personal shoot. You just can't beat the quality of the photos for our website and marketing. Her use of natural light is amazing and her commitment to bring out every person's inner beauty is so powerful. I have gone into her studio feeling very insecure and when I get the photos and see the results, wow, I didn't know I could look so good!! You won't be disappointed!!

Amazing woman and photographer. A wonderful friend. Highly recommended!!

My experience with Karianne was empowering and healing! I was treated with such loving care by Karianne and her stylist and makeup and hair specialists. She has a beautiful studio, played fun music, and I loved her dog Freddie! Before the photo shoot, I was feeling overweight and unconfident in my appearance. During the shoot and after, especially when the photos were revealed, I felt beautiful and much more comfortable in my skin. I cherish the photos and use them for both personal and business branding. I highly recommend that you give yourself the gift of working with Karianne. The experience, the photos, and the love are a valuable investment in you and your business.

It's amazing how a photo shoot can make you see yourself in a totally different way! Karianne is amazing and is truly passionate about helping women overcome our debilitating drive for perfectionism so that we are confident and empowered to be the most beautiful version of ourselves. Thank you, Kari, for such an amazing experience!

I had an idea of what I wanted to do to memorialize my birthday as a gift to myself, and I reached out to Kari to see if she could make my vision a reality. I described my vision to Kari and explained I was looking to walk away from our session with at least one picture that made me feel sexy, confident, and empowering. Kari was enthusiastically 100% on board from the very first message. When we had our consultation, she actively listened to what I wanted to do and gave me even more ideas to consider. Preparing for the shoot was a breeze after my consultation with the stylist, Amy. On the day of the shoot, I was admittedly nervous but those nerves went away immediately. I had an absolute blast and felt so comfortable. I just saw the previews of the pictures this past week and I cannot believe Kari was able to capture my personality, my vision, my sense of humor and my confidence. This once in a lifetime gift to myself is by far my favorite birthday present. Thank you Kari! You are a goddess!

I had the most amazing experience with Karianne! From the planning, to all communication, to the shoot itself, everything was just incredible. Karianne makes you feel so comfortable and so at ease, and she really knows how to draw the very best out of you. She understands the female body and that we're not all built like supermodels, and knows how to get you into poses that maximize all your best bits! When I saw the final images I actually cried - they were so beautiful and I really don't see myself that way. Perhaps that's part of Karianne's magic, knowing how to find the best in you, making you feel confident and strong, all while having fun. On top of that her photography is just phenomenal! A photoshoot with Karianne is a very empowering experience and I highly recommend it to everyone.
