Santa Barbara Fine Art School Portraits


Fine Art School Portraits are a fresh and modern perspective on school photography. At the heart of my approach is the genuine portrayal of each child in front of the camera. I never coerce artificial smiles or impose awkward poses. Instead, I capture the authentic essence of the child as they naturally are on that day. The outcome is a collection of timeless and authentic portraits, a departure from the conventional, clichéd photos characterized by garish flashes and cluttered backgrounds. 


I take pride in creating a light and enjoyable experience for your children, fostering an environment where they can relax and be themselves. My aim is to deliver a fun and stress-free atmosphere that enables their true personalities to shine through effortlessly.

Review Best locations for Santa Barbara Lifestyle Photographer Family, Newborn, Maternity photography fine art school po
Tristin worked so well with the children in our program. She helped everyone feel at ease and captured beautiful images of all 30 of us! Her warm, professional manner was fun and engaging for everyone, adults and children alike. I look forward to working with Tristin again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer for their family, program or event. She has a great eye and a wonderful presence!

Tristin was wonderful with the kids and I really appreciated how quickly she was able to capture some great shots of our sometimes squirmy children. I love the way the photos turned out.
