About Christine
Originating from the rain-soaked city of Portland, Oregon, my journey into photography began with an unexpected twist—I failed my high school photography class. Looking back, I realize it was never about the technicalities for me; it was always about people, emotions, and storytelling. Photography became a way to translate what I found beautiful into something tangible, a way to capture the feeling of a moment rather than just an image.
Now based in Palm Springs, California, and frequently working in Los Angeles and San Diego, I specialize in photography, creative direction, styling, and high-end retouching. My work is deeply rooted in understanding how visuals shape a brand’s identity. Whether shooting e-commerce, editorial, or advertising campaigns, I blend artistic vision with strategic execution to create compelling imagery that resonates with audiences and elevates brands.
I have had the opportunity to work with brands such as Pendleton, Hanna Anderson, Ralph Lauren, Nike Premium Footwear, Nike Golf, Target, Zulily, Fred Meyer, The North Face, Dakine, Follett, Kroger, LG, Sodexo, ACE Hardware, Kroger, Banana Republic, Vermouth Beauty, and Fashion to Figure, providing photography and retouching services that align with their unique aesthetics and marketing goals. These partnerships have given me a deep understanding of how to create imagery that not only looks beautiful but also tells a story and drives engagement.
With a background as a model, makeup artist, stylist, and art director, I bring a unique perspective to my work. I understand not only the technical side of photography but also how styling, composition, and branding work together to create powerful visuals. My approach is full-service, taking projects from concept development and styling to final retouching, ensuring that every detail is meticulously refined to maintain consistency and quality.
I believe photography isn’t just about capturing a moment—it’s about evoking emotion, shaping perception, and creating something that truly connects. Whether you’re looking for product photography, branding imagery, or editorial campaigns, I’d love to collaborate and bring your vision to life. I am available for studio shoots, on-location projects, and remote product photography, making it easy for brands to work with me from anywhere.
Now calling Southern California home, I am available for projects in Palm Springs, Los Angeles, San Diego, and beyond.
