Testimonials

"Having Bug photograph my family is just an added bonus to getting to hang out with her.  Bug has quickly become one of my closest friends and we always make once in a lifetime memories together, and of course, we always take professional photos on our adventures.  I've always admired her work and the more I see, the more respect I have for her.  I love photography myself, and I've learned so much from her.  But, even knowing how to adjust settings, it isn't the same as when she is behind the camera.  You can't recreate talent.  She has a unique eye and it makes for one of a kind photography.  The pictures I've gotten of my daughter are some of my most treasured possessions and I know I'll only cherish them more as she changes, grows, & time goes on.  But, thanks to bug and her quick little shots here and there between laughing my butt off, I'll always be able to remember the angle of my sweet babies nose and her little goofy smile with gaped baby teeth, and all the other moments that would otherwise flash by.  She does an amazing job at making you feel comfortable, as if you'd been friends your entire life.  Her photography is not only unique and one of a kind, but, SHE is one of a kind.  Genuinely up-beat, funny, professional, easy going, considerate, patient, and of course, ridiculously talented.  If you are looking into hiring her, do it!  You'll make a great new friend, and have timeless quality photographs.

"I was absolutely delighted by the photos I received from Cristina. She cleverly managed to feature my product (socks and tights) in a subtle way that made the items shine. We had great communication throughout the whole process and I definitely recommend her services!"

"I had Cristina take pictures of our little family.  The whole experience was wonderful!  I was a bit nervous of doing them in our own house (we’re forever remodeling) but Cristina nailed the lighting and captured moments of both my kids and the house that I’ll never forget.  The pictures came back fast and Cristina was so professional and sweet to work with.  Thank you Cristina for these beautiful photos that I will love forever!"

"I have had the pleasure of working with Cristina on two product shoots, and I cannot say enough good things about her and about my experience! The communication beforehand was really helpful for me; she made sure to ask about specific shots that I needed and delivered on them beautifully.  She did an excellent job capturing the vibe and style of my shop and gave me tons of gorgeous photos to choose from. Having Cristina photograph my garments has taken such a tremendous load off of my shoulders as a small shop owner, as I am never short on inspiring content for social media or product shots for my website now. I know that working with Cristina has greatly contributed to the growth of my shop, and I am so grateful! The fact that she is a total joy to work with is just icing on the cake. Highly recommend!"

"I absolutely LOVE working with Bug as a photographer!  She loves taking photos that are natural - no funny posing or cheesy props.  It’s really capturing a snapshot into our average day.  I was able to wake up the day of our photo shoot & put on our normal clothes like I normally do - didn’t even wear makeup!  It’s nice to have no stress to feel like I have to get all dressed up to take photos in my home.  She encouraged my spirited 3 year old to dance, jump, play, and do everything she normally does - so we could get pictures that captures her personality perfectly.  The pictures of my sweet baby were perfect - she captured all her expressions!  I love the photos because as a busy mom, I’m not good at capturing the fun we have and love to go back and see how even after a little bit of time the girls have changed!"

"Cristina's talent is just amazing. Her ability to take my product, and photograph it naturally, in action, without being staged is exactly what I envisioned. She makes me fall in love with my own blankets and lovey's all over again by capturing the sweetest littlest details. Like a mama using our blanket to soothe her baby, or tiny toddler hands clutching a lovey close to her cheek. I continue to rely on her skills, and use her photos on our site, social media, and have used them on thank you cards and on display at shows. Cristina communicates very well; she's always quick to respond and keeps me updated about the status of the shoot. As long as she's doing photography, I'll continue to have her handle all of our product shoots. She's my go to."

"I can't say enough good things about our experience with Bug. She has done so many pictures for us, but our most recent ones are my absolute favorite. She came to the hospital to take pictures of my husband and me with our new baby girl. I had been looking forward to those pictures and they turned out better than I had expected! A few days later, Bug came to our home to take family pictures of us with our other two children and our newest edition. We loved having Bug come to our home. It made it easy for us to not have to go anywhere, but it gave us photos of us in the place we love the most, home! Bug made everything so calm. She took her time to make sure she got that perfect picture. These photos are ones that I love and will cherish forever. They are candid, which I love the most about them, and they show the happiness and love we have in our home because of that sweet new spirit that came into our family!"
