About Artist
Cristina Capellino
I started taking pictures initially for fun with my old cell phone. I photographed mostly landscapes, but also colors, shapes, lines and geometries and the photos were a real disaster. I switched to a compact camera, but it wasn't enough. Thanks to a friend, I started taking my first shots with his self-taught reflex. In 2016, I held my first photographic exhibition. Since 2017, I have participated in workshops and courses, trying to deepen the technical, but also emotional aspect of photography. I work with natural light, but I have also experimented with continuous light and flash. Natural light is what excites me the most. Portraits in natural light become magic: you can really get to grasp gestures, expressions, stopping a moment and capturing the emotion in its entirety. I like everything that is color, shape, movement. I have a long way to go, but I like to learn. I don't know how to post-produce yet, but I like to proceed slowly... I'll get to that too. I photograph because through photography I can tell emotions, life, feeling, fear, desire, heart, values and reality... photography, in short, allows me to express what words can hardly convey.
