YOUR LOVE STORY THE WAY YOU WANT TO REMEMBER

check availability

Hi, I’m Cris, the lead photographer behind El Corazón, an editorial and documentary wedding photography studio based in Austin, serving couples in New York, Los Angeles and worldwide.

My approach to photography goes beyond the clicks I take with my camera. I focus on capturing love stories with intention and emotion, creating images that feel timeless, meaningful, and deeply personal.

Blending documentary storytelling with a refined editorial eye, I photograph on both digital and analog film to offer a dynamic perspective of your day.

The result is a thoughtful mix of real moments and artful imagery, telling your story in a way you’ll want to remember.

• Want to feel confident and comfortable being themselves, while trusting guidance to elevate moments when needed.

• Looking for photos that reflect who they are as a couple and the essence of their day.

FROM PAST
TO FUTURE COUPLES

Cris is amazing! We had so much fun with her. She was great at giving us directions and was also willing to listen to any of our crazy ideas and requests. The pictures are INCREDIBLE, and they truly reflect who we are as a couple. We would absolutely use her again and we highly recommend her to others.

We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos! Cris was so lovely to work with and her work is so beautiful. We love how everything turned out and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Cris is a fantastic professional! Right from the get-go she was really easy to work with. She made all of the process really easy and stress-free. She was not only our photographer, she was like a close friend helping to organize our day, not to mention, the photos came out absolutely amazing!!!!

Our destination wedding experience was incredible! My husband and I made the decision to do something different and opted for an adventure elopement in a magical location. Cris was wonderful in supporting us and making our dream come true! She helped us with all the arrangements, making the whole process a joy to plan and totally stress-free, which was one of our biggest concerns and our main reason for not opting for a traditional wedding!
