Hi, I am Christina

I'm a family photographer, capturing those moments from all stepping stones in your life. More than anything I love to create relationships with my clients, turning clients into friends.

I've always been the girl with the camera, but I started this as a business during the Covid shutdowns. Because so many other photographers where out of work I was able to do mentorships from photographers that have been in the field for decades. I was also able to really put time into learning the craft. Then when shutdowns lifted I was able to take what I learned and implement it!

A bit about me, I'm a mom of three girls, Ann-Marie, Belle and Austin and a baby boy, David Jr.. I moved to the Central Coast with my husband about 11 years ago from Riverside. It was the best thing we could have done for our family. I live out in the country of Paso Robles now on 10 acres. Enjoying our ranch life with our many animals.

Follow me on IG @Christina_marie_photography_ to see my stories and more insight to my life and the person I am :).

I am a huge animal lover. I have quite a few critters small and large of my own. From chickens and a pig to a couple horses.

If you would like to incorporate your furry baby into a session, please let me know. Because I love including animals.

If you have children with special needs, lets have a talk before your session to discuss how we can make it a fun and enjoyable experience for them. My first job was at a therapeutic horse camp. Where we helped kids gain confidence, have a good time, and learn about horses. This taught me so much about kids and kids with different abilities.

My approach with kids with special abilities is to plan an activity to focus on during the session. Something that is unique to their likes and/or something you do as a family. That way you can focus on having fun and I can focus on capturing candid smiles and genuine emotion.

I love lifestyle newborn sessions. This is where I am able to come to the comfort of your own home and capture your sweet little baby during the first couple weeks of life. I spend half the session on baby alone but then the other half of session on the whole family. Because we are in your home, this creates a relaxed environment where I can capture your genuine love and emotion for your precious new gift.
