WHY HELLO THERE, FELLOW EXPLORER!
Let me share my journey quickly so you know that life - much like art - rarely follows a straight path...
-
Funny story - I actually put my camera away for nearly 10 years! Then one day, I booked a yoga and safari retreat in Botswana - and it completely changed my life. Watching the wild, breathing in nature, and reconnecting with silence sparked something deep inside me. I picked up my camera again, and photography became my way of meditating — a way to notice the present moment and share what can’t be put into words.

I shoot with a Fujifilm X-T30 II, my travel soulmate. My main lenses are the Fujinon 27mm f/2.8 (perfect for street and travel photography) and the Sigma 18–50mm f/2.8 (my go-to for events, concerts, and weddings). Lightweight, fast, and reliable — just how I like my camera gear (and my coffee).
-
I’ve learned from amazing mentors, including documentary filmmaker Nicholas Roosen (National Geographic, PBS, Arte). I’m also trained at BECA Photography Academy, where I developed my visual storytelling approach.
-
Travel photography – capturing landscapes, urban streets, and cultural moments around the world.
Event and festival photography – telling stories through candid, raw moments.
Portrait photography – highlighting personality, emotion, and connection.
Weddings – real emotions, not stiff poses. Think storytelling over staged smiles.
-
Absolutely! I’m a bit of a digital nomad at heart. I take on destination photography projects worldwide — from weddings and retreats to festivals and creative collaborations. If it involves a good story and good light, count me in.
-
Yoga found me when I needed it most. Yoga helped me reconnect with my body, peace, and purpose. My first solo trip was a yoga retreat in Bali, and it was so transformative that I later traveled to India for a full Yoga Teacher Training. That experience deepened not only my practice but also how I see the world - with patience, compassion, and curiosity.
Now, yoga and photography are intertwined in my life. I also share my yoga experience on my YouTube channel -
Before focusing on photography, I worked as a UX/UI designer for Coca-Cola and on freelance projects. My design experience enhances my photography by giving me a strong sense of composition, color, and visual storytelling. Check out my design portfolio.
-
I have photographed in Botswana, Zimbabwe, Portugal, Morocco Bulgaria, and across Europe and Asia. My work spans wildlife safaris, urban landscapes, cultural festivals, and portrait sessions.

So Christina, what’s your why?
I believe stories — whether told through photos, yoga, or design — have the power to heal, connect, and transform.
My mission is to inspire others to embrace their creative journey, to find beauty in simplicity, and to cultivate balance in a busy world. Whether you’re here to see my photography, join a yoga class, or explore design work, I want you to feel welcomed, inspired, and encouraged to follow your own path.
