My sister-in-law, Christina, has an amazing eye behind the camera.  I hate to even acknowledge that Christina (or “stina” as my kids call her) is part of my family because I may sound a little bias.  I hope by the end of this post you too can see why I believe so much in this girl and her work!  It is gorgeous!

 

The thing about having a professional photographer in the family is we always have amazing shots from our family functions, just like my birthday pumpkin carving/fire pit/cookout extravaganza.

One thing that I just adore about Christina’s pictures are how real and genuine they are while being completely gorgeous!!  I know from our family shoots, we have kids that don’t always want to smile or sit still.   Christina can somehow still get awesome pictures with some fidgety subjects all the while capturing their natural joy.  I love hugging pictures with huge smiles!!

Christina is the real deal.  She works hard and will spend hours and hours researching new shooting locations, going and checking the lighting at these locations to save you time and get you the best pictures possible.  She strives for excellence and it shows in her work.  Although her work is perfect in my eyes, she spends hours reading other photographers’ blogs, learning, and experimenting.  She has a natural gift and is still humble.  I love to watch the joy she gets from creating art in taking gorgeous pictures.  She comes alive behind a camera and I feel it shows in work.

Christina has done family shoots…

She has a love for capturing life at its fullest and that is how she rolls living it.  Life is an adventure.  She has captured my guys in the middle of a water balloon fight, wearing five different parts of superhero costumes all at once, and even Reagan’s first painting experience.  These pictures are priceless.  If you are pregnant, I can’t imagine the incredible pictures Christina could capture!  She would do an incredible job at a maternity shoot or even a baby’s first newborn pictures!  Capturing those little toes and smiles in their sleep is so sweet.

If you live in the Atlanta, GA area, I highly recommend contacting Christina and seeing how you can set up your own photo shoot with her.  I know our family is going to get a shoot with her this Christmas season.  It will be the first time that all my siblings will be together in what feels like a really long time, so she is going to capture it with the mix of all different poses with our clan together.  Do you have family coming in town where you would like a photo shoot to capture the moment together??

I know I am smiling the whole time I scroll through her work.  It is so beautiful and full of heart and joy!

Thank you for stopping by and meeting a side of a girl, Christina, that helps my world go round.  Have an awesome day!!
