Hi, I'm Christine HartleyI'm a photographer born and raised in San Diego, California. I travel as much as I can to capture the beauty of nature.
I picked up a point-and-shoot camera to take scuba diving as something new to learn during Covid lockdowns. I found a passion in photographing the ocean. In 2023, I upgraded to a full mirrorless camera. Eventually, adding on multiple lenses and began shooting topside, expanding my passion of exploring the beauty of this vast planet. |
