Here to prove that timeless & traditional can still be a damn good time.

 

Hey there, I'm Christina!

Not to be dramatic, but I’ve been dreaming about being your photographer. 

Photographs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up playing with a polaroid camera, snapping blurry photos of a staircase or the trees in my backyard (thankfully my skills have improved since then). My Papou (that’s Greek for grandpa) was a photographer too and he always had a camera in hand, capturing bits and pieces of our lives that I don’t remember, but get to relive thanks to him. 

As I got older, I realized that it wasn't so much about taking the photos that I was in awe of, but rather the meaning behind them. The chance to freeze a moment in time. It was a wild concept that with one click, I could turn those moments into something I could keep forever. I fell in love with it.

This is what I want to give to you. 

 A chance to relive your best days.
Photographs that let memories rush back in.
Tokens of their best moments that can be passed through generations to come. 

Here’s what I’m all about:

Less picture perfect, more true to you.

❁ GENUINE HUMAN CONNECTION

❁ FREEDOM TO BE WHO YOU ARE 

❁ UNFILTERED ENERGY OF CELEBRATION

“She has incredible vision and you can truly tell she loves what she does.”

“Christina has been an absolute blessing over the last year since we started working with her. We’ve done fall photos, engagement photos and our elopement with her plus headshots and she has gone above and beyond every single time. 

She makes herself available every step from booking to after your photos are delivered and has been so helpful in the elopement and wedding planning process. She has had us both tearing up going through our albums multiple times and we get so many compliments on the photos we have around our home that she took. We are so excited to have her at our wedding next year.”

My Story

  • So, why wedding photography?

    Have you ever seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding? Well the 2000s rom com wasn’t exaggerating, that’s actually what it’s like. Growing up in a Greek Orthodox family, there was nothing I loved more than a big, fat wedding celebration – cliche, I know.

    But there’s just something about being surrounded by people you’ve known your whole life, your family and your chosen family all in one room, having a blast celebrating together.

    It’s good for the soul and the spirit. Nothing beats it.

  • Celebrations & gatherings come second nature to me.

    The word ‘parea’ (the last Greek word I’ll teach you today, I promise) means a group of friends who regularly get together to share experiences, values, and ideas. The idea is that this connection & growth enriches your life.

    For me, parea has meant being born into an extended family, even beyond my own blood, with friends & families I've known forever. My parents are friends with their parents. My grandparents are friends with their grandparents.

    People, gatherings, celebrations – they’re a core part of who I am.

  • My clients? They’re my parea, too.

    It starts with a, “hey, can you photograph our engagement photos?” and it quickly turns into wedding photography. Suddenly, I’m there for every special occasion, milestone, and phase of life you’re going through.

    Anniversary sessions. Maternity photoshoots. Your niece’s senior portraits. Vow renewals and family photos and brand photography when you finally start that business you’ve been dreaming up.

    I’ll never get tired of being the one who gets to document your favorite moments and giving you the gift of reliving them through photos forever.

You should also know that: 

❁ Your session might turn into a jam sesh (with its very own playlist)

❁ Liking chicken wings is a personality trait at this point 

❁ I’ll be SO stoked if you ask to bring your pup along 

❁ My clients turn into friends quickly & I like it like that 

❁ I’m obsessed with the beach (but seafood makes me gag)

❁ Advocating for what my couples want is THE most important thing to me

❁ We might end up at happy hour after your session (I don’t make the rules)

Feeling like I might be the ranch to your chicken wing? 

Then it’s time for you to reach out and tell me everything.  (And it’s time for me to make a trip to my favorite wing joint because I just made myself hungry. Wanna come?)
