Encinitas Ca 92024
“I was raised on a lake nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains of California, where fences were non-existent and I roamed freely. I I found my sanctuary amidst the rolling hills of oaks and transporting waters of Malibu Lake. This profound connection with the wild instilled in me a deep respect for our environment and a desire to protect it. My photography is an extension of this passion, capturing the raw essence of nature and highlighting the urgent need for conservation. Through my lens, I want to inspire others to see the beauty of our natural world and understand our critical role in preserving it.”
In 2023 she was certified by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy. Driven by a mission to foster a harmonious relationship between children, adults, and the more-than-human world, Christina mentors young aspiring photographers, teaching them the art of nature photography. Through these mentorships, they not only impart technical skills but also inspire a deep appreciation for the environment, encouraging the next generation to become advocates for social change and environmental stewardship. She published her first book, Sanctuary in the Wild with Datz Press in 2024.
Christina’s work is a testament to the belief that by nurturing our connection to nature, we can cultivate a more compassionate and sustainable world.
