After a long journey of self discovery which included a BA from the University of Southern California and a JD from South Texas College of Law, Kristine returned to photography because of her creative urges.
While Kristine has a very gifted eye for composition, color and lighting, she is best known for her ability to create a comfortable atmosphere and rapport that draws the client(s) in and allows the essence of their personality to be captured. Kristine converses with her client(s) until their interactions create the perfect candid moment. Kristine began her career as a natural portraiture photographer, but quickly expanded her art to include talent headshots and commercial/editorial/fashion photography at the request of a few Houston talent agencies. She is particularly effective in this area because of her past experience in front of the camera. Kristine was once a child actor in San Francisco and also pursued a modeling career in Los Angeles in the 1980's. After moving to Houston, Kristine also represented the local area in the Miss Texas Pageant as Miss Humble/Kingwood in 1991 and Miss Houston in 1992. She placed in the top 10 both years.
While Kristine can brilliantly capture adults, her specialty, without a doubt, is working with children. Her three little ones have taught her patience and given her the ability to be a big kid herself. She can relate to children and has the ability to make them feel relaxed and confident. She will never tell a child to smile, but will make a child laugh.
Kristine focuses on quality rather then quantity which is why her appointment schedule is very limited. She will only book a few appointments a day. This assures that there is time to visit and never a necessity to rush a sitting. Kristine has the ability to make every client feel special. This explains why Kristine is so successful with her word of mouth business and why her customers always return to her for their photographic needs.
KRISTINE
Kristine was born and raised in Fresno, California. Her father was a professional photographer so it was only natural that Kristine would inherit his talent and passion and pursue this artistic career.
