Hi, I'm Karina

I'm a strong do it your way advocate and I believe in experience over all. My job as an artist is to create with you, and capture your story the way it deserves to be told. My style is honest, free and all about you. Meaningful, intentional, and connected. I want you to truly enjoy, soak in this experience and create memories to last a lifetime.

 It's all about the small moments, deep connection, and big laughs - your unique story, a great adventure and celebrating you.

Capturing real love & real stories meaningfully

I'm all about doing things your way, and showcasing you for who you truly are.  Co-creating meaningful memories to last a lifetime is so much more important to me than "getting the shot".  I want this to be about experience, and your unique, beautiful story.  Together, I want to capture the real stuff.  The laughs so big they make you tear up, the soft fleeting smiles and inside jokes.  Whatever your adventure may be, it deserves to be captured significantly and intentionally.  Driven by your authenticity, and with a documentary approach, for me it's about creating an environment where you can just be, naturally.

For the wild lovers and madly in love with life, let's embrace your great adventure.

Experience-based adventure sessions, elopements, and intimate weddings to capture and celebrate the essence of you.

MY PHILOSOPHY

In a world full of so much distracting influence and messaging, in my eyes it's truly about feeling truly loved, accepted and yourself without any of the distractions.  Choosing to embrace what's genuinely you is such a powerful and magical thing and that's what I love.  Going against the grain to slow down, breathe in, and enjoy the moment.

Photography is such a universal, powerful way to capture all those deep feelings, moments of joy, uncontrollable laughter and the way you fall into each other.  Photographs can represent who you were in that moment, what you felt, and why you chose each other.  I’ve experienced love, friendship, authenticity and human connection make up the most extraordinary things in life and I feel so grateful to be able to document these timeless memories. Relishing the real and embracing the unknown, there’s a sense of wonder in everything. Getting to capture that, stop time, and hand those memories over to you to be remembered forever, that's what it's about.

MY WHY

Every couple,I shoot, I see the world through a whole new lens. Your story will be different from the last, and this ignites my passion all over again.

BEHIND THE LENS

I do things a bit differently.  Unposed and true to your authenticity. My style is heavily focused on real moments, nothing staged, nothing set up, no awkward half-smiles.  It's my goal to create an environment for you to be yourselves and craft an unforgettable experience for you to remember. Your wedding day shouldn’t feel like a stressful, rushed, all-day photoshoot—it should feel like your greatest adventure yet, with you both just being yourselves and having the best day of your lives. So you can count on laid-back, FUN, stress free & candid photos of it all.

Hand on heart, every ounce of my energy will go towards creating a gorgeous collection of photos that truly represent you, and memorialize your day forever.  When you look through the photos memories will come to life and it'll be as though you're right there doing it all over again.

A totally true to you experience

my favourite things

I've always been creatively minded and had a deep curiosity and love for people, stories places and how they all intertwine.  Travel has been a huge part of my life since I was young, and it's largely the source of so much of my inspiration.  I love painting, my house plants and little garden, spending time in my amazingly beautiful second home in Dominican Republic, and going on the best adventures always with family, amazing friends, and my love.  You might see some snippets of these over on my instagram and whatever new hobby I've decided to immerse myself in at the moment.

That’s a little sneak peek into my life and a few of my favourite things. No matter who and where we are, we’re all souls wandering this beautiful earth, with a different story to share. No tale is one and the same. And that’s why I LOVE documenting love stories (and hopefully yours too!

Chasing adventure, dancing barefoot, and creating meaningful memories along the way.

Visual storytelling for the barefoot wanderers, starry-eyed lovers, & madly in love with life.  intentional memories to celebrate you.

No story is one and the same. Yours will be finessed to share your unique journey.
