ABOUT CHRISTINA
I have been a freelance commercial and fine art photographer for over 30 years. I was based in Los Angeles for 25 years and moved back to Delaware in March 2020.
After getting my second photography degree from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA, in 1993, I started shooting professionally in product, architecture, still life, food and floral for advertising.
My fine artwork also involves food and floral images, but with a different purpose. Instead of selling the subject, I want the subject to invoke those happy chemicals in your brain to give you a break from those stresses in your day.
