BETH MITCHELL. WHAT A COOL MOM!

Beth Mitchell is a relaxed mom who is incredibly grounded and calm. I especially enjoyed our session together. Getting the very first smiles out of 7 week old Francesca was such a joy!!

"Because we wanted to capture each stage of our daughter's development, we decided to have Karina photograph our daughter at age 7 weeks. Our expectation was that the session would end quickly and with only a few usable pictures because of the difficulty in getting a child so young to "cooperate."  Amazingly, this did not happen. Karina was fantastic with our daughter. Not only was she able to capture her little personality, she was also able to capture quite a few smiles - something her dad and I had been trying to do but had not yet succeeded.  Karina has a great way with kids - our daughter loved her.  And, as importantly, she also has a great way with parents, being extremely patient and understanding when we needed to take our numerous feeding and diaper-changing breaks. It was a great experience and now we have phenomenal pictures capturing a precious time in our daughter's life." -Beth Mitchell 

Suki loves to hang out on set when there are babies in the studio.

"Karina is a passionate, perceptive artist. Her photos captured a depth of emotion and intensity I didn’t even realize I was experiencing! Working with her is more like working with a coach than a photographer – who are you being from moment to moment? What do you want to reflect? What is it to be intentional about the image you project? These are the questions that underlie her photo studies and as such, the experience of being photographed by Karina is deeply moving." -Elyse Napolitano
