Who Am I?

Hello!  I am Cristina, a photographer
specializing in photographing love, marriage, and babies.  The whole bit.  A little thing we call life.    

I LOVE  what I do.                       LOVE what I do.

I tear up at every wedding I shoot (just a teeny bit) because I am madly, deeply in love with weddings and what they represent.

I have two beautiful girls who are the center of my universe and totally rock my world. Yes, I photograph them often.

I have a husband who not only supports me and my crazy endevors, but completely encourages me to have them in the first place.  For his support, I am beyond thankful.

I grew up watching black and white movies.

For six years I lived near the beaches of California and it changed my life.

I am blessed. by. God.         Immensly.

And I am completely honored that you've stopped by to have a small look at life through my lens.  I do hope enjoy it and stop by often.

::she lied::

At our consultation she warned me that she didn’t like being photographed.  Well, she lied.  And I’m glad she did.

He wasn’t so shabby either.  They were seriously cute together.

About this post….

I know I said I wouldn’t blog, but I can’t help myself.  There have been so many good things going on lately.  Just one image of this wedding for now and back to the grind! I wish I could blog everyone I photograph, but I never get that opportunity.  How do I determine what I blog? Timing.  If I haven’t blogged a portrait, I’ll do that.  If I haven’t blogged a wedding, I’ll do that.  If there’s something I feel is a little different and I want you to see it and love it as much as I do, I’ll do that.  It really just depends what’s on my plate and how much time I have.  Right now, I hardly have any time at all, but I can’t help share something NEW when I can.

See you here soon!

::before I go MIA.::

I have sooo many cool things to blog, but this weekend and upcoming week will be all work and no play.

I’ll be finishing galleries and making sure my calendar is squared away for the rest of the year.  Yes… the rest of the year.

I know. It’s crazy that way around here. Most people will find it hard to believe, but very soon I will be completely booked for the fall until Christmas.  They are often shocked, but it’s true.

I will have to hold off on blogging for just a little bit, but here is a little list of what is to come.

  • Laura and Elvis - Part II
  • Photoshoot with a fashionista
  • Cute Kids and a car (see below)
  • A couple of first time Mom’s who worked it for me
  • Another rockin’ wedding

Then, there is all the behind-the-scenes stuff that I’m finishing.  A couple of weddings… and albums… and stuff to mail. Whew!

So, off I go, into never never land.  I’ll see you when I return.

Below, a favorite image of the week.  I have the best clients.

::married - laura and elvis..part 1::

Oops. I hit publish before I was ready and I just noticed it now. Oh well. It gives me a good reason to stop now and make everyone wait for Laura and Elvis - Part 2! Wait patiently. I’ll make it worth your while.

::married - victoria and oscar::

I’m back in the country now and although I have many, many images to post from my Mexico adventure, I must first showcase some images from Victoria and Oscar’s wedding.  I’ll let the images speak for themselves.  Congratulations to you, both!

Just a quick note letting you know that I will be out of the country shooting a wedding in central Mexico.  I will not be available by phone or internet but I will be returning on Monday.  Have a great long weekend everyone!

I leave you with images of my daughter having her cake and eating it, too.
