Read More“Cristina provides an excellent service as a professional photographer for events and exhibitions. I have hired her repeatedly to photograph arts events, including private views, book launches, demonstrations, presentations and exhibitions, since 2013.
Cristina is amazing. She completely understands what is needed and how to capture natural photographs of everyone at an event. Her sensitivity to visual art and the way she can capture the atmosphere of an event are her huge asset. She has a great touch composing dynamic images, and produces a great mix of wide angle shots and details.
She is a real pleasure to work with, relaxed, calm, professional and attentive. She is efficient, turns up exactly when she says she will, and returns skilfully and thoughtfully edited images in a fast turnaround.
I can thoroughly recommend Cristina’s services as a photographer, particularly if you have an art, cultural or creative event that you need coverage for, or you need professional product or portrait photography. She is great at what she does, and is a lovely person to have around too.”
