Meet Chrissy
Hi! I'm Chrissy. I photograph nature scenes and landscapes around the world but my heart and home are in the Poconos of Pennsylvania. No matter the season or weather, I feel at home when I'm outdoors with my camera.

Daily hands-on instruction during extended field sessions
I’m excited to share that I’ll be teaching at the Out of Merritt Island Bird Photography Conference, happening March 8–12, 2026, in Florida. For over 60 years, Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge has been a sanctuary for diverse wildlife, including 358 bird species.
This immersive, five-day event is one of the best opportunities for nature photographers to hone their wildlife skills. The birds at Merritt Island are accustomed to people, which means you’ll have incredible access to photograph them up close while learning from some of the best bird photographers and instructors in the world.
If you’ve ever wanted to strengthen your wildlife photography—mastering timing, movement, light, and patience—this is the place to do it.
