Thanks for the amazing review, Mark and Cherie!
When I looked into Bay Area photographers for a fun and relatively informal photo session with my significant other, I found no shortage of options, but one website and portfolio truly stood out -- Nightingale Photography. I knew from the moment I saw her work that Christina was going to be the right choice, and she did not disappoint.
Tons of positives:
- she was easy to communicate and plan with, even when I wanted to switch one of my locations the week of the shoot
- she made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is no small task
- she was flexible with my ideas, but also brought her own to the table
- photos were back even sooner than I'd expected, and were of the quality I'd seen on her website
But I think what I liked best was Christina herself. She was extremely pleasant to work with, and treated my casual event with the same professionalism and respect that she would a wedding. She had very positive presence and brought a really good energy and enthusiasm to the shoot. She was a lot of fun and brought out the best in my partner and me.
I'm so glad I selected Christina and Nightingale Photography, and she would absolutely be my first choice if I were to need a photographer again. Thank you!
I loved that this wonderful family brought bubbly to their family portrait session for a celebratory moment. What a fun addition to the session!

You deserve to be queen for a day during your pregnancy. Celebrate what youโre accomplishing and the miracle of this experience. Kelli looked amazing in her flowing gown as her family surrounded her with love. Congratulations to this beautiful family!
Around 9 months is a delicious time for baby portraits. Capture the rolls, the chub, the beauty.
She said yes!!!! Piper and her dad, Aaron, popped the question to fabulous Mariana with joy and gusto! Piper wore her fanciest bandana to the proposal and made sure dad remembered champagneโฆand the ring. Ok, cute or what!?!?!๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ฅน
Including siblings in a newborn photo session is incredibly heartwarming. There's something truly special about capturing the bond between older brothers and sisters and the newest addition to the family. I advise parents to talk to their older children about the photo session beforehand and encourage them to share any ideas they might have. This involvement fosters a sense of ownership, engagement, and pride in the older siblings. Congratulations to Pacific and Coral for being such wonderful siblings to Baby Rome!
Capturing all the feels from the start to the sweetest milestones! I had the honor of following Dana and Chrisโs love story for over two years. From their elegant San Francisco engagement session, to the โI doโsโ on their big day, then onto the exciting bump pics during their maternity shoot, and finally, the adorable squishiness of their newborn. Each image tells a story of love, growth, and new beginnings. Itโs like being part of their big, beautiful family album, and Iโm so grateful they chose me to be their photographer for these amazing moments!
What an adorable sight! Sophia welcomed the New Year in style, donning a bright red dress of her own choice. She coordinated her outfit with a matching ensemble for her furry (and patient) companion, Coconuts. Opting for the timeless backdrop of Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, Sophia and her family created new memories during their 2024 photo session. Sophia, you owned the spotlight and my heart! ๐
New Year, new babies! How exciting that we get to celebrate the beginning of 2024 with darling newborns! Thanks, Baby Alora for making the world just a little brighter.
Make your maternity session a day to remember! I always encourage my couples to choose a location that inspires and speaks to them. As they look at their portraits years from now, they will remember how they felt that day: filled with anticipation for baby to arrive, anxious yet excited, unprepared but so ready to meet her. Dress up in something that makes you feel beautiful and make dinner reservations to complete this momentous experience.
I had the pleasure of photographing Dana and Chris's wedding and now this special maternity session. They are so anxious to welcome baby boy into the world, and that's one lucky guy.
Congratulations!
Erica and Michael are wonderful long time clients of mine so we wanted to make this year special! ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ ๐ โจ With the addition of their daughter, we thought it would be fun to start at their home with a PJs session and then head out to the beautiful parks for more traditional holiday family portraits. I love that they truly cherish photography and display it all over the house to celebrate family each and every day! ๐ก ๐ธ

Curious about the results from a shorter, 20 min. portrait event? I really like them for young children, who, as we know, have shorter attention spans. Let's capture a few smiles, give a cuddle, and create a lovely grouping of portraits without stress. See you soon! Link in bio for info.
I love embracing the great outdoors and the beauty of family amidst the towering redwoods. It was so fun to capture the genuine smiles, laughter, and the unbreakable bonds that made this portrait session truly unforgettable! ๐ฒโจ

Capturing the purest moments of family love right where it all begins - at home. Megan and Bryan welcomed their precious newborn, Andie, surrounded by love, laughter, and the pitter-patter of paws. Our fur babies, often the first to join our journey, play a huge part in shaping our child's childhood. Including them in these cherished memories is an ode to the beautiful bond that grows within these walls. ๐พ๐ถ๐ป๐
Capturing the love and anticipation of Kristin and Andrew, as they embrace the natural beauty of San Francisco during this magical time. From the heart of the Presidio to the gentle embrace of Kristin's mom's dog, Joe, these moments are a celebration of their journey into parenthood. ๐ฟ๐พ๐ซ
Breaking free from the ordinary and embracing the extraordinary. For this family session, we ventured into the vibrant tapestry of San Francisco Chinatown. Embrace the unconventional and let your family's story unfold in unexpected settings! Consider thinking outside the box for your next maternity/family session, finding inspiration in diverse landscapes and vibrant communities. ๐ธ๐โจ
From maternity magic to yearly beach portraits, this family's journey at Alameda Beach is a beautiful tradition in the making! Embracing spontaneity, they jumped in the water as the sun set, creating memories of laughter and warm summer evenings. It's the genuine moments that truly paint the picture of love and togetherness! ๐๏ธ๐

As a photographer, Iโm thrilled to freeze these precious family moments in time. It was an absolute delight to watch the newest addition to this family, sweet baby boy Austen, steal the hearts of his two older brothers, and of course Mom and Dad!
I love new clients! I had the pleasure of meeting Jenn Collins and her family in the beautiful Mt. Diablo landscape with golden grasses and rolling hills. The girls were absolutely delightful and ended up climbing trees. Adorable. Make sure to book a session with your family early, spots fill up quickly. Details in bio. See you soon!
