Hi, I am Christina!

Photography started as a hobby of mine. I've always carried my camera! Literally, I got my first camera when I was nine. It was this gorgeous (to me) metallic lavender, film, point and shoot, ten dollar camera that I couldn't put down. Thank goodness I've improved since then. I later (much later) got into traveling. I started dabbling with DSLR's and slowly taught myself through A LOT of practice, courses, research, and mentors. Five years ago a friend asked if I would mind snapping a few of their little and here I am! I never thought I would have gotten this far. I'm still growing and learning in the photography world and in general!

The name "Oak & Sage" was chosen as I wanted to highlight my home base, the Okanagan Similikameen region. Upon moving here one of the first things I noticed is the beautiful sage brush. The "oak" is for wine country. It is important to me to incorporate the Okanagan into my name to acknowledge that I work, play, and benefit from, the ancestral, traditional, and unneeded territory of the Syilx people.

Outside of photography Im often seen chasing my three boys around with my partner, teaching/practicing yoga, hiking, traveling, or cooking and eating everything insight. I am also a Registered Nurse, which I work casually so my schedule remains quite open!

Being a mama has taught me how incredibly fast time goes, but being a nurse has shown me how important it is to capture all of life's moments, big and small. I believe in capturing all of the moment we can when and while we can. So lets connect! If you have an event, fashion, business shots, or are just capturing a moment in time, contact me and lets capture your moment!
