Cristina, Localgrapher in Arnhem

Style:

Photography for me is about feeling the moment. I observe, I feel, I press the shutter. It’s all about evoking feelings and emotions. I like to add elements of storytelling into my photos, as you will notice my style is dark and moody filled with emotions. I rely mainly on natural light. My studio is in the outdoors.

Likes:

Herbal tea. I cannot live without my herbal tea in the mornings, afternoons, evenings. Basically any time of day, I’m up for drinking herbal tea of any kind. I am also a big animal lover, I’m the person that eagerly wants to pet a cat or dog on the streets and snap a quick shot if possible. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs at home. I love them. Lastly, I don’t particularly like cleaning but I am a bit of a clean freak. If my house is a mess, my mind is a mess. And that’s a big no-no for me.

Recommended places:

Arnhem is surrounded by nature reserves, such as the Hoge Veluwe National Park, which is a great spot for sunset photos in nature. A walk around the old downtown area which is home to many cozy cafes, designer shops, boutique is also a great place for street photography. If you visit the Netherlands, you must also visit the oldest city, Nijmegen. It’s filled with historical buildings and centuries-old plazas. An ideal place if you want to take memorable photos of your visit here. Amsterdam is great but if you really want a taste of a real Dutch city, Utrecht is the place. It’s considered the most beautiful canal city in Europe.
