lifestyle + family photographer
hey there
I am christina Corrin
Based in Chehalis, WA and beyond.
Hello, I am Christina - a lifestyle and family photographer in the Pacific Northwest.
My journey with photography began when I was young. I was always carrying around my parents' cameras and camcorders, capturing the mundane life and my siblings. Creating art has been a huge passion of mine. It only blossomed as I started taking self portraits and roped my siblings and friends to model for me.
Music, light, people-watching, and nature inspires me. I love taking in the small details and habits around me. I believe that everyone has a story to tell. My heart is to hype you up to show your value and worth through telling your story.
I will capture the beauty that you already hold.
When I am not behind the camera, I am catching up on shows with my husband, outside with my family, chasing my 3 year old with the baby in my arms, or working on an art project.
My Philosophy
I focus on documenting authentic stories that are true to you. A meaningful experience that showcases your raw emotions on your day with the ones who matter most to you. Your photos should reflect who you are and how you love. By focusing on details, touches, and the surrounding. It tells the narrative of the life you love. My goal is to bring you right back to these moments in time. I don't want you to just have these photographs, but to be brought back to how this moment in your life felt.
This is the power a photographer can hold. These photos are time capsules that you get to look back on 20, 30, 40 years down the road, and pass them down to your legacies. After you're long gone, a part of you will forever remain-beautiful and timeless.
On your session day, I will bring kindness, positivity, and warmth. I will ease your worries so that you are comfortable in front of my lens. I am aware of my surroundings, capturing candid moments that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. I will gently guide you into the scene and bring laughter to ease your mind. I always strive to capture the best side of you and may have some strange ideas. But it is always in the effort of creating from the energy you bring and the details around us. I play off of your movements, guide as needed, and get easily inspired by subtle things -- whether that's light, how a piece of your hair falls, or even from the tilt of your head. I am always noticing how things dance together, and I will let you know how great you're doing.
It's important for my clients to know my philosophies and for me to intentionally know each of my clients. To truly capture and create based off of your energy and love.
Photographs are one of the most important things in our life. They tell the stories of little things that we have forgotten over time. Bringing back feelings and memories that we hold dear. They are time-capsules.
