The newborn photos were beautiful and really captured this moment of time for our baby girl. The family photos were the best family photos weve ever had taken. She even got good ones of my son who wears glasses (always a challenge to photograph well) and is in a weird smile stage.

Tina is a gifted photographer and a perfectionist when it comes to posing and it shows in the quality of her images. She did our maternity and newborn photos and we could not have been more pleased with the outcome. She is accommodating with requests and truly strives to create your vision. She captured the love and excitement of our growing family perfectly and we will always have these images to look back on and cherish this time in our lives. Highly recommend to anyone seeking maternity and newborn photos. She is worth the investment for the pictures we will have forever. Thank you Tina, we

Christina was absolutely amazing, I could not recommend her enough. She was so patient as my newborn kept waking up just about every time we would touch him. Her patience and attention to detail blew my expectations out of the water. Im so happy that I recommended my two best friends to her before I even worked with her. You wont be disappointed with the photos you receive if you work with her.
