Happy Clients & Portfolio
Heirloom Artwork can Change Your Life
Our children are the most photographed generation, yet they have the fewest physical prints or artwork compared to prior generations. Our children feel lost in this digital world and don't know where to turn to find themselves. Having physical artwork of your family will change your life.
We often decorate are homes with what makes us feel most comfortable and is important to us. We display what we feel is beautiful and hide the things we don't. Portraits on the walls of your home will reinforce to your family that you think they are worth showing off.

Love Notes
“I am so amazingly grateful to God, who has gifted Christina Baltazar with such invaluable gifts, creativity, and depth, patience, and the ability to look beyond the photo, and into the hearts and souls of the people who she photographs. She captures that moment and memorializes it in the work that she does. It’s so much more than a photo. It’s customized ART!”
“Here at my most vulnerable 7 fragile moment in this pregnancy journey, Christina made me feel extremely beautiful and empowered. She captured the essence of what the human body can do, the alchemy of creating and holding life within me while encouraging me to feel sexy which is a feeling all women should feel during pregnancy.”
“I wouldn't go to anyone else.”
“We just loved Christina’s work. She did an amazing job with our maternity and newborn session/pictures. We most definitely be booking with her again in the future.”

High School Senior Photography FAQs
When is the best time to schedule a senior portrait session?
We recommend scheduling your senior portrait session during the summer or early fall of your senior year. This will give you plenty of time to choose your favorite images and create custom graduation announcements or other keepsakes.
What should I wear for my senior portrait session?
We recommend wearing clothing that reflects your personal style and makes you feel confident and comfortable. We'll provide more detailed wardrobe tips during your pre-session consultation.
Can I bring props or include my hobbies/interests in my senior portraits?
Absolutely! We love incorporating your personality, hobbies, and interests into your senior portrait session. Let us know if there are any specific props or locations you'd like to include, and we'll work together to make it happen.
Can we bring our pets to my senior photography session?
Absolutely! Pets are welcome for on-location sessions! Just let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. If you have a particularly energetic pet, you may want to bring a friend or family member along to help wrangle them during the session.
How long does a senior portrait session last?
Our senior portrait sessions have different session options depending on your needs. We offer a quick 30-minute session option if you only want a few images, or you can have an entire day to yourself. Typically, most clients spend around 2 hours with us, which allows for plenty of time to capture a variety of poses and locations. We'll work with you to create a custom session that fits your unique style and personality.
What happens if it rains on the day of our session??
I always have a backup plan in the rare case of inclement weather. We can either reschedule for another day, or we can find an indoor location that will work for your session.
Do you retouch the images?
Yes! I absolutely retouch images to make them stand out amongst the crowds. Each image is adjusted as needed for exposure, contrast, color correction, etc. and before your final images are sent to the lab for printing, any unwanted blemishes or marks are removed as requested.
Do you offer prints or albums?
I offer a variety of print and album options to showcase your family photos. All of my clients order finished artwork from their session, whether it's a beautiful album or a custom-framed print for their home. I work with professional labs to ensure that your prints and products are of the highest quality and will last for generations.
When you order any images in print or albums, I also include a complimentary social media digital file for each image ordered. This allows you to share your favorite images with friends and family on social media while still having high-quality prints and albums for your home. I want to make sure that you have all the options you need to enjoy your family photos to the fullest, whether you're displaying them in your home or sharing them online.
Do you offer payment plans?
We understand that there are a lot of expenses that come with having a new baby, so we offer interest-free in-house payment plans for up to 6 months, or payments with AfterPay.
Meet Christina
As a child, the only portraits Christina had of herself were the awkward school portraits every year. Our family was never displayed on the walls of our home. It wasn't for lack of love, just that her single mother was too busy working multiple jobs and caring for five children...and before she knew it, Christina was off to college and married and starting a family of her own.
Christina's mission as a photographer became clear over a decade ago. To help her clients preserve their precious memories of their children & families and to celebrate every stage of a child's life and decorate her clients' homes with beautiful custom artwork of what is most important - FAMILY. Artwork that matters.
No matter what stage your child is in, there is no wrong time to have him or her photographed. We invite you to set up a time to meet with us for a portrait consultation to see how to create heirloom artwork for you and your family to enjoy.
