People are real, moments are real, emotions are real.

So lets be real.

Hey There!

I’m Christina, but you can call me Cee. I’m an awkward millennial, who fits the stigma of my generation by always taking “too-many pictures”.

I don’t claim to be focused on only one world of photography, as I am drawn to capturing candid, honest moments in whatever form they appear. My photographs embrace the kinesthetic empathy that movement provides, even within a still image. Using my long history of dance training, I create images that represent life: ongoing, imperfect, and full of motion.

some fun-facts about me:

I have two cats: Ollivander & Batman, and a dog: Nebraska Jones, all of whom I rescued and love more than anything else in the world! (and coincidentally, they are all black & white, so they match!)
I binge-watch way too much Netflix and have an ongoing rotation of The Office, Parks & Rec, Community, New Girl, It’s Always Sunny, and 30 Rock.
I love puns and will laugh at any dad joke.
I’m in an informal book club called Book Club Wenches and read over 50 books this past year.
I’ve been with my partner, Matt (who is a musician), for 11 years and we’re probably the most married-but-not-married couple you will ever meet.
I’m only 5’1, so if you’re tall be prepared for me to balance on crazy things to get the best shot of you!
I currently have 4 tattoos- two are song lyrics by the great Bon Iver and Manchester Orchestra, and the others are a grouping of stars, and a cluster of bamboo.
I choreographed and danced in Julien Baker’s “Appointments” music video, and was in the live-studio audience for Wandavision!

To quote the great Pina Bausch, “I'm not interested in how people move, but what moves them.”

You deserve images that capture who you are, where you like to hang out, and how you like to feel. In an ideal session, you will ease into poses that you can let loose and be yourself in, while I act as a fly on the wall to capture you spending time just being you! Get silly, dance around, and share some intimate moments, and I will be there to create beautiful photos of you and this moment in your life!

a few tips to get the best photos ever:

Pick a fun and exciting location for your session! I have plenty of ideas if you need some guidance.
Coordinate your clothing - don’t worry, I’ll provide a guide!
Be ready to goof off, get sentimental, and move all over the place!
Laugh at my puns and bad jokes… it will at least come out great in your photos!
Come prepped with your favorite song or music genre, and I’ll get those tunes blasting!
