The quiet before the storm

I mean this literally, there were many heavy rainstorms at the beginning of this week, and in between beautiful calm moments, with dark thick clouds moving around. Just ideal for some photo-sessions. And a good possibility for Antonia to discover a new passion: jumping into puddles of water. With normal shoes, rubber-boots, barefoot, with and without using hands, it does not matter, no puddle can be bypassed, but she needs to jump in and splash right through it. This week-end was also Juhannus, or mid-summer, a very big celebration day in Finland and luckily the weather was clearing up and it was warm and sunny this day. We were invited to friend's, and had barbecue, nice company, sauna with "swimming in the lake afterwards" - great. Antonia was playing with other children and having fun running around naked. Maybe best Juhannus ever :).

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
