New England & Destination Photographer
Capturing Brands, Portraits & Intimate Weddings
Hi, I’m Karina — photographer, creative director, and storyteller behind the lens. I’ve always been the girl with a camera, but for a long time photography lived quietly on the hobby shelf. Everything shifted when I immigrated to the United States and met my husband. As we began traveling together more intentionally, photography became my way of connecting with people, places, and stories far beyond my own.
After visiting over 20 countries and 28 states, what started as a creative outlet evolved into a way of capturing genuine moments, shared experiences, and love in all its forms.
Creative Storytelling Approach
My work is rooted in storytelling — the kind that makes you feel like you’re watching your favorite film unfold. I take the time to connect, observe, and create space for things to unfold naturally, so your photos reflect who you are, not a version of you performing for the camera. I’m drawn to thoughtful locations and intentional visual concepts that complement your story and the environment around you — creating imagery that feels cohesive, personal, and true to the moment.
Documenting Stories Worldwide
I’m based in Boston, and much of my work happens close to home — from Martha’s Vineyard to Cape Cod, while also taking me beyond New England for destination projects across the U.S. and Europe.
Throughout the year, I travel for weddings, elopements, and creative projects — including equestrian work in Florida and destination celebrations in California and Hawaii.
You can check my travel schedule to see where I’ll be next, or reach out if your location isn’t listed. From elopements in Grand Teton National Park to sunset sessions in Malibu and horseback shoots in Iceland, I’m always open to traveling for meaningful stories.
Portfolio
Some of my favorite projects were created in places that inspire me the most — like Hawaii and Wyoming — and often feature horses, movement, and a sense of freedom. I love creating branding and couples imagery that feels honest and personal, focused on your story rather than Pinterest trends or templates.
Visual Poetry
For me, photography is visual poetry — a blend of candid moments, reportage, editorial details, and cinematic framing. It’s about emotion, connection, and preserving the moments that quietly shape a story. If that resonates with you, I’d love for you to explore my portfolio and the stories I’ve been honored to capture.
Discover Boston’s hidden gems
with my free photo guide
Boston is full of incredible photo spots, but let’s be honest — the best ones aren’t always the most obvious. As a photographer, I’m always scouting for unique locations beyond the typical tourist stops. That’s why I created the Offbeat Boston Photo Guide — a curated list of my favorite hidden gems, cool murals, charming streets, and unexpected backdrops that will take your photography to the next level.
