What I do

Three ways we can work together

Phone photography workshop

Phone Photography Training

Your team already has everything they need.

I teach hotel and hospitality teams how to create professional-quality content using the phones they already carry. One session is all it takes to change how your brand shows up online.

I found Cristina's photography course on LinkedIn and it's honestly been a game changer. She's not just a great photographer — she's an amazing coach too. After our session, I immediately wanted to get up and start taking pictures because I felt so inspired.

I had the pleasure of working with Cristina Simion on a comprehensive social media strategy. From strategic planning to tactical execution, she demonstrated an all-around mastery of marketing skills that truly elevated our online presence. Cristina's other hidden skill and passion is photography, making her a marketing all-rounder!

Cristina is a consummate professional. Enthusiastic and dedicated to her craft. As a small business owner with little skill in design and marketing, I have found her advice and input invaluable. I would have no hesitation in recommending her outstanding services.

I worked with Cristina to take some photos for my yoga business and from start to finish she was absolutely incredible! When I saw the final images I was blown away. I've had professional photos taken before but nothing as good as these. Cristina really captured my essence — I would highly, highly recommend her!

I engaged Cristina to help me re-launch my coaching business. Her phone photography masterclass and 1:1 training gave me a grounding so I could create images myself. She had great design ideas on the brand refresh and helped me convert my attempts into a great new site ready to re-launch. All within 6–7 weeks. I'm delighted with the results — she's a joy to work with.
