THE PERSON BEHIND WANDERLIGHT

Hi, I’m
Christina.

A photographer, filmmaker, educator, and someone who likes to see where a little curiosity can take us.

I’m based in Brentwood, Northern California. Through Wanderlight Studio, I photograph people, the work they do, and the moments they want to hold onto.

Let’s talk

WHY WANDERLIGHT

This studio was built on a love for storytelling, real connection, and the kind of beauty you don’t need to fake. I want you to feel seen, known, and celebrated in every frame.

01 / MAKING PHOTOGRAPHS

Room to be yourself.

Portraits, seniors, branding, weddings, events, theater, and sports. The setting changes, but there’s always a person and a story at the heart of it. I like leaving room for personality, a little play, and the unexpected moments along the way.

02 / SHARING WHAT I KNOW

Curiosity belongs here.

Before Wanderlight, I spent years teaching in homeschool co-ops and running a co-op of my own. Helping someone find their way with a camera feels like a natural part of the same work.

Sometimes we’re making photographs together. Sometimes we’re learning how to make them. Either way, there’s room to try something, get curious, and see where it goes.
