Business Description
Kristen Mittlestedt is photographer and artist who travels around Indiana and Ohio.
Name: Kristen Mittlestedt ( Maiden Name: Kristen Smith )
Location: {The middle of nowhere} Bluffton, Indiana. Bluffton is a town 45 minutes south of Fort Wayne, IN and 45 minutes north of Muncie, IN. My entire family lives in Muncie, which is where I grew up, so it's great that I don't live to far from them. Bluffton works as a great central location for my current client base.
The World is My Studio. Currently all of my sessions are on location. This is a personal preference. I feel like when there is more space to roam around, boundaries are dropped, and clients (especially children) are less stressed and more at ease. I have nothing against studio photography, and love the look of it in some situations. However personally, I love natural feeling backdrops in which my clients can interact. For newborn sessions I do set up a small indoor studio in the nursery.
I Travel! My client base is spread across Central to Northeastern Indiana, but I love to travel; especially for weddings!
Help soothe my wanderlust and hire me for your destination wedding!
Education: I graduated from Ball State University in May of 2012, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. My emphasis was in photography, and I spent a good chunk of my undergraduate career working in the darkroom with various cameras. I love film photography, and currently I am working at building a darkroom for personal work.
Freetime, What Freetime? I'm just kidding. Although I do dedicate a lot of time to my work, I do find time to relax. I enjoy reading, and British television. I am very family-oriented so normally if there isn't a camera in my hand I am with my family in Muncie or with my husband.
