• A celebration of your connection with your body

    Give your body a voice

    For generations, We were told what to do How to sit How to smile How to cover our bodies Our body is governed by so many rules, set in place to control us. I would like to live in a world where women do not have to see their bodies as a reason to hide away. I want to show you there’s nothing wrong with your bodyYou are perfectly fine the way you areBe your most feminine.Getting in touch with your body – is taking your own power and living it. Start exploring your feminine power. By honouring who you are, by holding space for you to be yourself, by seeing you as you see yourself in the mirror when nobody is watching. Are you ready to see your most glorious self?

    For 70+ years, capitalist marketing has been telling us we are simply not good as we are. Reversing centuries of patriarchy is not going to happen over night. Guilt and shame have deep roots within ourselves, These are the tools used to govern our bodies. I want to show you there’s nothing wrong with your body Be your most feminine You are perfectly fine the way you are Are you ready to see your most divine self ?

The Embodiment Experience

Since I started my photography studio, my mission was to empower women in their professional and personal life. I wanted to help women to connect to themselves and see themselves how I see them. And while I mastered that over the past 10 years, I felt there was something more. Now I want to go deeper. To the root cause of all our insecurities. The connection we have with our body.

“The photoshoot with Cristina was life-changing! I felt like the goddess self that I only dream of being — because of Cristina’s presence and photographic gaze. She is beyond supportive — she makes you feel divine and beautiful during the actual shoot — even before you see the amazing photos! After a few difficult years for me, health-wise, where I was struggling with some anxiety issues, this photoshoot was better than therapy — it was a healing somatic experience in itself. I felt transformed by the day we had together! I think anyone who goes into a shoot with Cristina should do so with the intention to be fully present, to be free to be led by her into a version of you that you forgot about! And the photos were incredible, I wanted them all!! They connect me to the magic of that day every time I use them. Thank you so much, Cristina, for your vision, your love, your guidance, your gentle support & your beautiful work. You helped me find myself again after years of hiding. 🤍

“I invite you to a personal session with me,
I’ll show you a side of you that doesn’t usually get to be seen.
I want you to be able to see the
beautiful, natural, confident woman in yourself.”

My name is Cristina and I am a portrait photographer. I’ve learned through the years that photographing the lives and hearts of women runs so much deeper than just getting your picture taken. It’s an emotional experience, one that exposes vulnerabilities, but all the while empowers and uplifts. It’s an experience I want every women to have. One where she realises her beauty is unmistakable and the role that she plays in this world is both irreplaceable and imperative. My promise to you is that once you step in front of my camera, this will happen. And it’s an experience you won’t forget.

I look forward to seeing you in my studio.

Yours truly,

"Everybody should do that to pamper yourself for one day. I had the pleasure to do it with 2 good friends and that was the best experience at all. To share these moments together and discussing the impressions we made back and forth was really great."

During my experience with Cristina, I was a bit shy in the beginning and felt quite insecure, but she created a very relaxing and friendly atmosphere so that I could just be myself without any artificial postures and facial expressions.

"I really enjoyed the day at your "studio" with getting styled and put into poses how I had never done before. So it was a very special experience of feeling beautiful and discovering new facettes of myself."
