41/52 - Portrait

Yes, it is time for a portrait of our girl, and because her birthday is coming and Mama, Katrin and the children were visiting, i take all the children at once on the shot!

Because our girl will soon turn 3 years old, we had visitors this week-end: Mama, Katrin and Miri-Liv. Mir-Liv are actually Miriam and Liv, but Antonia keeps saying Miri-Liv. No question, she was excited and extremely happy to welcome her loved cousins here in Vienna. We had an interesting, and tight program: first, we visited the exhibition "Ich und Du, Hier und Dort" about foreign cultures here in Vienna, and people coming as refugees. I think it was very well made, and Antonia loved to dress all the foreign costumes and dance to the foreign rhythms. The evening was spent in the Italian restaurant "La Mere", and besides a small accident (the red wine was poured over the table and on Katrin's clothes), all went fine and we had delicious food. The next day we went again to the Mumok, the children's museum, and participated in their clay workshop. Antonia was sleeping the first hour, then woke up but refused to play because I was not here, and only the last 10 minutes started to enjoy. But in these last 10minutes, she created cool clay figurettes (with help of Mama). Sonja joined through the program for the week-end, which was very nice. And we received maybe the best birthday present: A coupon with free baby-sitting hours from her sons Albert and Philipp! More a present for us than for Toni, but we took it with pleasure :)

Hi.

My name is Christina. Welcome to my passion and my living dream. Weddings and family occasions to me are the events which most need to be memorialized and saved in pictures. I am a mother, photographer, biologist, and a happy-go-lucky person who loves to travel and has been known to throw caution to the wind. I use my camera and my curiosity to find love, beauty, joy and humor in unexpected places. Every time I meet a new couple so crazy in love they can’t keep their eyes and hands off each other, it makes my stomach flip because I absolutely know how it feels to be that new couple. This is how I know how much it matters to have those moments captured in time. Because no matter how many years pass, when you look back at those pictures, you won’t think about all the imperfections but you will remember the love, sun’s warmth and the song that was playing in the background and the moment will come live
