CMSours Photography

Room, our venue, and her portfolio quality was a step above all other photographers, including many who were much more expensive than her. We loved our fun engagement session at me and my husband's favorite spots in the city, which was followed by a two year wedding hiatus due to COVID. Rescheduling our date with Christina was a breeze, as she was so accommodating beyond our expectation. We were glad to have had our beautiful engagement photos to tide us over until our wedding. Like so many friends warned us, our wedding day flew by in a blink of an eye. At the end of the night, my husband and I were asking ourselves if we really just got married. We were hungry for photos to relive the day. Christina quickly sent us some highlights which brought me and my husband to tears. A few weeks later, we received our full album. We only have these photos to relive our big day, and we couldn't be happier that Christina was there to chronicle our wedding. Thank you!!!!

ur wedding (and personalities). From our initial consultation to the day of our wedding, Christina provided us with guidance (from locations to what outfits photograph best) to ensure that we would have the best photos. We really appreciated her honesty, but also willingness to capture what was truly special to us. Her flexibility and assurance during a planning season fraught by Covid regulations always put us at ease. And lastly, our photos were simply stunning and we will treasure them forever.

environment. I felt comfortable in an an ward situation because I don’t usually enjoy being in front of the camera. And, I had fun. I plan to have her as my photographer for future events. Her energy is contagious and she is a wealth of knowledge. Well deserved 5 star rating and I don’t give those lightly.

eel comfortable with her. During the day of my engagement, Christina was willing to get there earlier than planned to scope out the best areas for shots and walk me through some contingency plans in the event the weather didn’t cooperate. Having this level of communication and willingness to go above and beyond made me feel like Christina was just as invested in our engagement going smoothly as I was. Afterwards, Christina shared the photos with us super quickly, so we could send them to family and friends who couldn’t be there with us. We can’t recommend Christina enough - she is highly personable, professional, and her photos make for beautiful treasures that we will cherish forever!

al and helpful with all things wedding related as well as friendly to make you and friends and family feel comfortable and relaxed during photos. She really captured so many amazing moments and emotions from our wedding that we wouldn't have seen otherwise being so busy on that day! Can't recommend her enough.

ew all the right shots to get some amazing pictures. We can't thank her enough!

elt comfortable with), she was still able to capture so many beautiful moments on the day of. I especially enjoyed the questions she'd ask to catch reactions, as they were both fun to think about and respond to. Christina turns around photos so fast! You definitely go through some wedding withdrawal after the day is over, so it's wonderful being able to look over pictures so soon after to be able to reminisce. Looking back at the pictures, it seems like she was everywhere at once! She was able to capture pictures across all our guests, while not missing moments with us. She is also incredibly efficient with wrangling up family/big groups and getting the obligatory shots done. She blends right in as activities are happening, so it's easy to be yourself without feeling like you're being constantly watched/documented. We loved the positivity and energy Christina brought to our day. She was a great coach for the day of and helped keep us on schedule and just overall directing things (we didn't have a day of coordinator). We really couldn't have been happier with anyone else as our photographer!!

nsive in preparation mode, pre-wedding, and during - Professional throughout - Flexible with scheduling and to requests - Pleasant to work with and always happy (our families instantly liked her) - Most importantly, a great photographer who captured what went by so quickly for us at the ceremony and reception Christina went above and beyond to make us comfortable during our photo shoots and even sent us inspirational notes and gifts leading up to the special day. We couldn’t recommend Christina more. Thank you!

session (included in package price) Christina made us feel so comfortable! She kept the vibe super chill and relaxed, had us laughing throughout the entire shoot, and made us forget that we were at a public beach doing a photo shoot. My now husband and I both left feeling GREAT about the experience and couldn't wait to have her photographing our wedding. The same things can be said for the day of the wedding. Christina fit in so easily to the atmosphere of our day! I want to say she blended in so that you almost didn't notice that photos were being taken, but that's not entirely true. You definitely notice Christina dancing along to the music, smiling and laughing with guests, and matching the energy the whole night! On top of all this, our photos came out absolutely incredible! We looked more amazing than we ever thought possible and I am so thankful that she captured all of the aspects of the best day of our lives!

a's personality, and we couldn't be happier with our experience with her. The moments she captured are perfect and we will treasure these photos forever! Oct. 2018: After researching wedding photographers on The Knot, we selected Christina for her bright and vibrant style, her organization and professionalism. She educates you through the whole process, and she's extremely easy to work and communicate with. We just completed our engagement shoot, and it was so laid-back like we were already close friends. She gently directed us with fun, get-to-know-the-couple questions and games, so each shot was candid and captured the essence of our relationship. We received the photos in just a few days and were both blown away by how stunningly beautiful they look! We cannot wait to work with Christina again when we get married next year, and we'd highly recommend her to others!

(engagement photos all the way to post-wedding), and vividly captured many amazing moments with us and our friends and family. The final products are visually stunning and can speak for themselves, but what I want others to understand is how fun and easy it is to work with Christina. A few of my family members independently commented on how personable she was and easy to smile for during all the picture-taking. When some of the wedding prep process was stressful for all involved, Christina did not lose her cool or her kind and caring professionalism, and really helped us get through some difficult moments. If you want someone to not only photograph your special experience, but also make it more wonderful by their care and presence, this is the photographer you want.

e happier! I am so pleased with our photos! And I was so surprised at how much fun we had taking them! My partner and I both really hate to be photographed, but Christina made our engagement session so much fun! Not only did we have a blast taking them, the outcome was amazing. I normally hate seeing pictures of myself, but these are the first photos I've ever looked at and thought, "wow!" Christina really has an eye to capture the perfect photos. She is so easy to work with and quick to respond to emails. You can tell she's thought through the details and knows what to expect or recommend. And she has a wonderful personality that makes you feel right at ease! Wedding planning is HARD, but CMSours Photography was the easiest and most rewarding decision of the entire process!

the turnaround time was about two weeks which I think is really good but she delivered way faster. The photos are beautiful!! Christina captures the light and the feel of the moment so perfectly. One of the most important things to me in a photographer is that they capture genuine moments, not just glamorous posed shots (which she also does well) and Christina captured lots of laughs and little moments between us. She's also a pleasure to work with. I thought we would be a little uncomfortable and awkward in front of the camera but I didn't feel that way at all with Christina! We were able to feel relaxed and be ourselves with her. She also met with us one evening before the shoot and got to know a bit more about us and our wedding. I highly recommend Christina and if you like beautiful light and joy filled photos you won't be disappointed!

ckly set up an in-person meeting the very next day and I was so captivated by her bubbly personality and the quality of her work that I had a feeling she would be the one! We booked the White Gold package with her (10 hours wedding photography and free engagement session). Our April engagement session photos at Fort Mason & Pier 7 came out absolutely gorgeous and we had so much fun with Christina guiding us on the poses! Our August wedding at the Cliff House at Ocean Beach was an absolute blast and the guests loved every minute they had with Christina! She was so organized and thorough in getting all the shots we wanted with family and friends and we were so grateful to be in expert hands! Throughout the whole timeline leading up to the wedding, Christina has pleasantly surprised us with her flexibility with timing, dependability, super quick turnaround on photos (we loved getting a small sneak peek at the wedding album just one day after the wedding), and overall cheerfulness! She has been an absolute joy and delight to work with! I can truly say that it has been a pleasure and we can’t wait to go back for more photo opportunities in the future! Thank you, Christina!

it's obvious that I really needed that main accessory! She was generous about her time and was gracious with helping us capture really epic shots from a difficult location. Thanks for hiking with us and taking the time to learn about our relationship. The wind wasn't on our side but Christina does a great job working with her clients, lighting and the unpredictable Mother Nature! Oh yeah did I mention that her prices are beyond affordable and worth every penny?

the time. As a bonus, Christina is so great to have around during the pre-wedding pictures (and craziness). She is sweet and professional. Her calm and positive attitude was great for the day of. At one point she even tracked down some champaign for me! I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HER FOR YOUR WEDDING!

happy with her work as well. Christina is great at communication, always on time, made us and our guest feel comfortable and very professional. Every time I see the proofs I'm amazed with her talent.
