hi! i’m christina.

Denver, CO // New York, NY // Anywhere

I’m a photographer and designer currently residing in Denver, CO, though I frequently return to New York for work and family whenever possible.

In June 2023, I turned my decade-long side business into my full-time career. What started as small independent creative endeavors of all kinds in 2014 slowly turned into what Amba Creative is today.

I’ve always had a passion for connecting with people and telling stories—I’m a strong believer that life is best lived when we are seen, understood, and celebrated. I do my very best to use visuals (whether it’s photo, video, websites, design, fine art, or anything else) to not only make my clients feel those things, but to have that apparent in the work I produced for them too.

With a background in advertising and marketing, it’s been such a gift to be able to use both my corporate and developed creative skills to make personal & meaningful art with so many amazing human beings!

"I shot with Amba Creative for content for my recent single- and she WORKED it. SHE took all my photoshoots I’ve ever done and put them all into Her pictures- I’ve never felt more like me. It really boosted my confidence. She’s so sweet and really listens to what her clients are expressing. Can’t wait to create with her again in the future !”

"I would not consider myself someone who is comfortable, much less confident, in front of the camera, but Christina was such a joy to work with. She helped me pose and gave me a variety of shots with different backgrounds at a fair, reasonable price. More importantly, from start to finish -- from scheduling, to shooting, to receiving final edits -- Christina made me feel like a priority. She was incredibly professional throughout the entire process, and I could tell how much she cared about my satisfaction with the results. Her dedication, attention-to-detail, and unique aesthetic are undeniable. I could not recommend her more to anyone who is considering working with her!"
