Hey There
Being a mom is like being in a time warp - life speeds up even more! I found myself desperately trying to capture every little moment in pictures before they slipped away. Having had a knack for photography, I decided to start my own business. I want to help others freeze those precious moments in time, so you can relive over and over (and over) again.
All About Me
Hello there! My name is Christine, and I am thrilled to share a little bit about myself with you. I am a mom to Luke, one wild and amazing boy, as well as a wife to Jeff, who is my biggest supporter. In addition to being a mom and wife, I am also a pediatric cardiac intensive care nurse, a cancer warrior, and most recently, a photographer.
Photography has always been a passion of mine, ever since getting my first camera for my 13th birthday. My friends and I did numerous very awkward teenage photoshoots with that camera, but it was the start of something special. After the birth of my son Luke, my passion for photography increased more and more. I found myself taking more images and spending more time perfecting editing styles. However, I only had the one subject. Between wanting to have more variety in my images and my desire to help other moms capture the moments of life that slip by too fast, I decided to pursue photography professionally.

I think, in some ways, my cancer diagnosis in 2016 also contributes to my want to help others capture life before it might be too late to do so. As a cancer warrior, I know firsthand how important it is to cherish every moment and capture memories that will last a lifetime. I am committed to making sure each of my clients receives the best possible experience and images that they will cherish for a lifetime.

I believe that every moment is worth cherishing, and I am committed to helping my clients capture memories that will last forever. In ways, my own cancer diagnosis in 2016 has contributed to my desire to help others capture life before it might be too late to do so. As a fighter myself, I know firsthand how important it is to cherish every moment and make memories that will last a lifetime. I am dedicated to providing my clients with the best possible experience and images that they will cherish for years to come.
I offer a range of photography services, including family portraits, maternity and newborn photography as well as engagement photos and much more. In addition, I have started offering end-of-life photography to the families I work with in the ICU. While you won't find these photos on my website, if it is something you are looking for, please send me a message, and I would be honored to capture this important time for you.
​
Thank you for considering me as your photographer!

XOXO, Christine
