Hello, I'm Christina Crawford, owner of Creative Soulutions LLC, specializing in lifestyle photography for products, brands, and most importantly, PEOPLE. I'm an on-location photographer based out of Tacoma, Washington but am willing to travel. I have a BS in psychology, 20+ years in customer service, 3 in leadership, 13 as a portrait photographer, and the last 3 as a brand and product photographer. I've always loved various art genres but photography has a special place in my heart. I started in 2010, not knowing much, determined as hell, and ready to learn. I wasn't good at it, at all. But gradually, I got the hang of it and started to educate myself on the various facets of the art. I became obsessed.

In 2021, a seed was planted to get serious. My friend and prior personal trainer and serial entrepreneur, Jazmin Richards asked me to do product photos and I told her I wasn’t a product photographer and her response was, “you are now.” Who else could push me around other than the person who was once my personal trainer. I started doing photos for her business that started at the height of the pandemic and from there, she started referring me out to her other entrepreneur friends. When I saw the demand for product photography and that I was decent at it, I decided it was time to see where this would take me. Deciding that it was time to start networking, I found myself at my first TBL meeting. It taught me networking is important and showed me the good in our community, the people who are the epitome of why Tacoma is Grit City. It's made me re-evaluate what I wanted my impact to be. It made me realize that I wasn't alone in this journey. Creative Soulutions LLC was established in 2021.

I want to address Creative Soulutions Community impact and philosophy...I want to leave people better in some way than before we met. Maybe not because I made that impact but acted as a conduit to help people see their own magnificence. I want to know their WHY and hear about their dreams and ambitions, what sets them on fire and makes them feel alive. Telling the story of the person behind the brand is both inspiring and impactful. One of my philosophies is that if I have food, WE have food. However I can show up for people is where I intend to. If that means they needed to vent during their session, I'm here for it. Or maybe they're not feeling so confident, I'm their hypewoman. Maybe they just want to share a small victory... I'm gonna make it a big deal. I get giddy at seeing people show up, day in and day out to be the best version of themselves, leaving their impact on the world. And I get to bear witness to and document it. I'd say I'm pretty lucky to share space with such powerful people.

My logo is designed to emphasize the word, "SOUL" in hopes you'll remember me, not just what I do. "You don't have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body, " was thought to have been authored by C.S. Lewis but the origin is uncertain. The statement resonates with me and I want to make sure your stories aren't forgotten or that your work could later be determined as the author was unknown. The colors of my logo are symbolic in that black and white are iconic, classic, and timeless. The pop of yellow is a reminder that everything the light touches turns to gold. I look forward to shedding light on the people of our community.

If you, like me, are SOUL-led in everything you do, should you find you need a photographer, my ask is that you consider Creative Soulutions for your needs. Lifestyle photos: Products. Brands. And most importantly, PEOPLE.

Please follow my journey on Instagram 😊

SALAMAT (THANK YOU!)

Christina
