I have worked together with Cristina several times on Photography projects. Besides the superb outcome, Cristina is an accurate professional with high sense of responsibility that made our collaboration a great experience. Moreover, Cristina is a driven entrepreneur and this is what makes her different from the competition. Thus, I highly recommend Cristina for any type of photography project and any type of project she might be involved with.

When I initially arrived, I felt quite self-conscious about myself. A million questions about if I would love myself when I saw the photos. Cristina was both very encouraging and warm. She made me feel special with her attention to even the smallest details, which made me feel relaxed and less self-conscious quickly. This especially showed when they were helping me pick out the right combinations in outfits and ensuring that my hair was right before taking photos. Being able to laugh a little also helped enormously to take the edge off. When I saw my photos for the first time I was blown away, honestly. Cristina's creative talent leaves me speechless. I felt like a lioness on top of her game, and not the game playing the lioness! I would definitely recommend this experience to other women!

It was a real pleasure to work with Cristina and the outcome of the photo shooting was amazing and any penny worth! There was no time pressure and we experimented with a couple of outfits and plenty of poses to get the perfect picture. In the end there were lots of perfect pics and I get plenty of compliments from all sides on my new profile picture. I can highly recommend Cristina and her work.

There are many good photographers who understand the technical aspects of making good portraits, but Cristina has talent that can’t be learned — it’s a gift. She really is like a magician. She’s smart and savvy, throughly prepares each portrait session, and surrounds herself with a small, skilled team. But what she goes on to achieve with just a camera and a simple backdrop is truly incredible. Her portraits are so rich, they capture the essence of the subject. How do you bring out someone’s personality in a photo? First of all, the subject has to feel completely at ease so she can be herself. Cristina makes her clients feel comfortable and self-confident in front of the camera. The results speak for themselves.

After multiple positive recommendations (and a very underwhelming experience with my company's photographer!) I enlisted the help of Cristina to take profile portrait photos of myself. My overall experience working with Cristina was wonderful - she was involved from the beginning when she scheduled a Zoom call to get to know each other and align on expectations. Cristina invited me to her charming, light, studio in Amsterdam and made me feel very comfortable - the entire photoshoot felt easy and enjoyable. The most impressive part was the quality of the photos - I was very pleased with the results - it's remarkable what a professional like Cristina can accomplish with a solid understanding of how to leverage lightening and clients' features. It is without hesitation that I recommend Cristina Stoian to anyone looking to look their best through photography.

Cristina is a professional, talented photographer and a wonderful and inspiring woman. The shooting I had with her was a fabulous experience, she helped me discover and love a hidden side of myself, it made me feel more at ease, comfortable with myself. When I saw the pictures, I felt amazed, it was hard to recognize myself in some of the pictures, and again, I discovered something new about myself. I would definitely recommend this experience, it met and exceeded my expectations.
