San Diego Wedding Photographer
It all starts here
let's document your love story
So many expectations. So many opinions. It shouldn’t feel like a performance. It should feel like you. Honest. Joyful.
Completely yours.
Wedding planning can feel overwhelming.
This isn’t just about pretty details (though we’ll capture those, too). It’s about the look your love gives you. The laughter echoing through the getting-ready room. The handwritten notes, the quiet moments, the deep-in-your-bones kind of love.
I’m not just here to take photos. I’m here to serve you. To bring a calming presence (and stupid humor). To help you feel like yourself. To build a timeline that actually fits you, guide when needed, and step back when the moment speaks for itself.
It’s a day full of meaning, surrounded by your people, marked by moments too real to pose, and emotions you’ll want to relive forever.
Your wedding isn’t just a date on the calendar.
and deeply you
Intimate wedding photography that feels effortless, emotional,
howdy howdy, I'm Christi!
I’m absolutely in love with our wedding photos, she did such a great job capturing everything in such a beautiful way.

but because he knew those little things were the big things. He preserved the heartbeat of our family, one photo at a time. That’s the approach I bring to every wedding. Photography, for me, is personal. It’s legacy. It’s about showing up fully and honoring the in-between moments that tell the real story. Just like he did.
He always had his camera with him. Whether it was a middle school basketball game, a choir concert, a backyard summer day, or Christmas morning, he showed up, camera in hand, ready to capture it all. Not because the lighting was perfect or the moment was posed,

This was what I was meant to do.
Photography found me in the most unexpected way. My background was all in video, but during my freshman year of college, I picked up my Grandad’s camera and started taking photos just for fun. That one small step led to capturing my first wedding, and from there, everything clicked.
I’m a San Diego wedding photographer, but more than that, I am a storyteller.

I believe wholeheartedly that God has called me to serve through photography as a way to glorify Him and love others in the process. It’s an honor to capture the moments that reflect His goodness, joy, and the beauty of marriage.
I’ve always been a laid-back person, and I truly feel God designed me that way to be a calming presence, a source of peace and encouragement, especially on a day as meaningful as your wedding. My heart is to serve my couples with intentionality, to bring joy, and to show the love of Christ in every interaction.
As a photographer, nothing brings me more fulfillment than helping people feel seen and celebrated. I deeply value connection, authenticity, and transparency, and I strive to create an atmosphere that is warm and welcoming for everyone — regardless of their background or beliefs.
The why behind the lens
Christi was an absolute dream to work with! She was so thorough in making sure she would capture our dream photos for our wedding and she did just that!
Here to glorify God & document your love.

Christi did a wonderful job of capturing the joy and love that my husband and I feel for each other. During such a busy day, she provided us with peace during hectic moments. She continuously reassured us and created a comfortable environment. She perfectly captured and enhanced the natural beauty of each moment.
- Claire
Christi not only puts her entire heart into her business and clients, but she knows what she is doing. She is super organized and on top of things during the planning process and day-of wedding craziness. She is an expert on all things posing and editing. We felt like we had a friend there that day taking our photos, and that makes all the difference.
- Tarissa & Josiah
If I could give 10 stars to Christi, I would! She is hands down the best wedding photographer and I am SO GLAD my husband and I went with her! My husband and I both loved Christi's style of laid back, nostalgic, soft, romantic and authenticity. Ever since day 1, Christi was her authentic self and you could tell she was passionate about her job.
- Sydney & Brian
Wow! Where do I even begin? Christi absolutely poured into our engagement photos and wedding day photos to deliver the most beautiful, authentic, romantic, and intimate pictures. We will cherish these forever! Working with her was a wonderful experience! She was super communicative, intentional, down to earth, and fun.
- Summer
Christi was such a joy to work with! We really wanted to get the candid moments and loved her style when looking for the perfect photographer. We live in FL & were traveling over for the wedding, but she went above & beyond to look for the perfect spots for our day. She took our inspiration photos and made them a reality! Every time we look through our album we go back to that day & get all the feels again.
- Breanna
Where do I begin.. Christi is the most warm, kind, fun, friendly, personable photographer I've ever had the opportunity to work with. We wanted our photos of our elopement in Arizona to feel like a dream. I wanted to be able to feel the sunset and the breeze on my skin when I see the pictures a month later in the fall weather of New Hampshire. Every picture is beautiful and clearly depicts our love for each other.
