Hi, I’m Crystal, the heart behind Pink and Black Photography!

Your Certified and Award-Winning Calgary-Based Photographer!

As a proud mom of three, I know how important it is to preserve life’s milestones—whether it’s the excitement of an engagement, the magic of a wedding, the beauty of pregnancy, or the precious early years with your little ones. These moments deserve to be celebrated and captured in a way that reflects the true essence of who you are.

More about me and what I offer.


I’m also passionate about empowering women through boudoir photography. I understand the beauty, confidence, and strength that come from helping women embrace their unique selves and feel their absolute best. Boudoir is about more than just photos; it’s about celebrating your individuality, building confidence, and honoring who you are.


As a certified photographer with Learn Photography Canada since 2018, I ensure my skills stay fresh and aligned with industry standards. I’ve also been fortunate to win awards with Shine Photography, further fueling my commitment to capturing stunning and meaningful moments.


My goal is to provide a personalized, stress-free experience for each client. I want to understand your story and bring it to life through portraits that truly reflect who you are. Together, we’ll create images you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Let’s make something unforgettable together—timeless, authentic photography that captures your most meaningful moments.

KIND WORDS

I had the opportunity to work with Crystal, for our Engagement and Wedding photos. In February, we had our Engagement photos at Fish Creek Park. We had our Wedding in High River. Crystal was there to capture our entire day. She was so easy to work with and professional. I was so grateful to have her take photos at our family farm in High River. This meant I could have photos with my horse, which I had always dreamed of on my Wedding day.
