Christora Osters

Owner / Lead Photographer

MORE ABOUT CHRISTORA

Chris Osters, Lead Photographer

Hey everyone!  I’m Chris, co-owner of Green Apple Photography and spouse of lead photographer Christora.  I got into photography because of the passion I saw Christora find while taking photos.  It turns out I have that same passion too! I really enjoy making sure the day runs smoothly and helping in any way that I can to make your day memorable.

When I’m not shooting, I like to travel, play golf, taste bourbon and be an all around physics nerd.  People say I have a voice for radio...so I'm also a trivia MC at a local bar.   I am a lover of all things science and technology and strive to try new things in my work. I love problem solving and puzzles, so don't be surprised if you find that Rubiks Cube you've had laying around solved after your big day.

Katie Willis Rhodes, Lead Photographer

Hey!! I’m Katie!! I am an artist, photographer, dog mom, wife, sister, aunt, Starbucks lover, black licorice fan, houseplant collector, craft-making fiend.

Photography has been my passion since high school. Formerly taught using a manual camera and film, I learned how to develop images in a dark room when I was a student at DuPont Manual. I continued my love of photography by earning a bachelors of Art in Studio Art from the University of Louisville.

My photography career began after a devastating loss. My Dad passed in 2004 and being behind the camera provided a mental escape through the grieving process. I could focus on the beauty of life as seen through my view finder. Having very few photos of my Dad, his passing forced me to recognize the importance of photographing loved ones.

Being a wedding photographer, I am able to do what I love most! From the details of the day to photographing tears of joy, my favorite part of photographing each wedding is capturing moments as they occur —- the first time you embrace your partner on your wedding day, the exchanging of vows, special moments with family and friends who mean the most to you! Bonus points for laughter!! If you’re planning to wear a dinosaur costume or secretly smash your wedding cake into the smiling faces of your best man, count me in!! It’s these type of details that excite me!! I can’t wait to be part of your big day!!

Kaitlyn, Second Photographer

Hey there, I’m Kaitlyn! I have always been the friend with the camera capturing the candid moments of the people I love the most.

Photography for me never feels like work because I love every stage from the planning to the editing. My goal is to make every person that steps in front of my lens feel comfortable along with helping the day run as smooth as can be. There is a 99.9% chance that I will shed a tear on your wedding day, it’s just who I am!

When I am not behind the camera I am usually cooking up a fancy meal pretending I am on the Food Network channel or cuddling with my 2 big dogs

Hey y’all, I’m Gabbi. I’m a creative who often gets her head in the clouds! I love giggling with you and being able to capture moments to help others see all the magical details.

I feel so lucky to have landed at Green Apple to be able to grow as a photographer. My previous experience is pretty digital marketing heavy with an emphasis on lifestyle imagery, mostly for social media use. Being able to be a part of your wedding day is so amazing and I feel so lucky to be able to help capture all your memories!

When I’m not working, you can usually find me at the barn playing with my horse, running, or going on adventures with my husband and dog!

Hello! My name is Amber, and I was a previous bride that had the pleasure of working with Christora. She made my day the absolute best! My family will be forever thankful for the support Green Apple provided on my special day! I’ve wanted to remain a member of the Green Apple family since. I’ve always had a passion for photography. Photography is a hobby I’ve always wanted to pursue and I finally have the opportunity to work some of the best people I know.

I am a full time social worker, mom of two beautiful children, and wife to a loving husband. When I’m not working I’m always playing with my little ones and spending time with family. Making memories and taking all the photos possible to remember the best moments of my life. Photos allow you to look back at the best moments of your life and time stands still. I have two fur babies that also get their photos taken and attention sometimes!

Hello. My name is Giavanna, but you can call me G!

I’ve always been intrigued with the wedding and event industry. After I graduated with my hospitality degree from Western Kentucky University in May of 2022, I immediately landed a job at an event planning company here in Louisville.

I’ve assisted weddings ranging from 100 to 250 guests and helped the day run smoothly from the behind the scenes.

Fascinated with my former high school Spanish teachers distinguished photography career, I reached out to Christora asking if there was any way I could help!Fast forward a little but, and here I am assisting Green Apple Photography.

By the way, if you can’t find me, check the pool, the library, or the gym. If you’re reading this I’m looking forward to meeting you and helping your big day run smoothly!!
