"What Exactly IS Embodiment Photography?"
Let me tell you the story...
Let me tell you the story...
My spiritual journey came before my artistry bloomed
When I first picked up a camera and discovered my love for photography, I was a nearly unrecognizable version of myself— a world away from the Christina writing these words today.
I was lost, to say the least.
Aimless and sifting through what felt like an entire universe of karmic baggage, trauma, and deep soul-level sadness.
I didn't know myself as a divine creator of my life yet, not even close.
My relationship with the girl in the mirror was anything but kind. The chaos of my inner world kept me trapped in a cycle—outsourcing my power, sabotaging my own growth, and feeling like I was letting my one wild and precious life slip through my fingers.
I was showing up with:
Shame instead of love.
Lies instead of truth.
Force instead of flow.
Everything shifted when
I stopped running, slowed down, and turned towards myself in ways I'd never been brave enough to do before.
I immersed myself in a spectrum of healing modalities—attending workshops, devouring self-help books, sitting in grief-tending ceremonies, choosing a 10-day silent meditation sit, and integrating lesson after lesson as I found my way out of my "dark night of the soul."
I approached these rites of passage as if my life depended on it—because saying "yes" to the life that called me forward meant letting go of the one that kept me trapped.
as I changed...
I realized my self-perception had to change with me
No matter how much I grew, if I didn't complete the healing process by seeing myself in new and courageous ways, I would inevitably slip back into old patterns—defaulting to the self-image I had held before all. that. work.
This is where the healing magic of being seen through art comes in
Through countless self-portraits and 500+ photography sessions for my community, I realized that photography had an uncanny ability to deepen our healing and broaden our possibilities.
Having the chance to truly see ourselves as we grow and change Creates the spaciousness to accept and integrate a new self.
you
bloom
I am a truth seeker, a deep listener, and an experienced and intuitive visionary here to bring light, color, and embodied expression into the world.
So who is Christina?
My mission is to help people see themselves in new ways, providing an antidote for shame and self-judgement.
Why? Because this is the heart of healing.
We cannot evolve beyond our
self-perception
And, my dear, we deserve to evolve
Outside of soul callings and entrepreneurship, I’m really just a lover.
You’ll find me challenging myself in the kitchen for the next best dish, doting on my 50+ houseplants, finding new music to fixate on, noticing the evening light set the world aglow, taking my husky on little adventures to see the world, and loving my queer partner and dear friends with as much depth and devotion as my heart can hold.
After surviving a lot of darkness in my life, I am truly just so. grateful. to have air in my lungs and love in my world.
I believe in tending to your garden and watching it bloom.
I believe in centering self-exploration, self-compassion, and community care as a way to heal the earth.
I believe in love, forgiveness, and trying again.
I believe in humans to be better today than we were yesterday.
I believe in us.
