About Kristina Krug Photography

Nashville photographer, Kristina Krug creates vivid photographs for leading magazines, advertising agencies, and design firms, and specializes in environmental portraits.

Before moving to Nashville, Tennessee in 2000, Kristina Marie Krug worked as a freelance art director in Chicago for advertising, editorial, and catalog clients, where she began shooting for some of the same clients she worked for as a designer. Her experience in print design and branding give her a unique vantage point, making shoots smooth for art directors and photo editors.

In her portrait work, Kristina is gifted in photographing everyday people. She is inspired by an insatiable desire to uncover individual and universal truths captured during a momentary glimpse through her lens. Her unique unique perspective is full of compassion. And though some of her portraits may often express a harsh reality, they still seem to reveal a tangible sense of beauty and hope. She shoots photographs that are honest, vivid, memorable, and timeless.

In her personal work, shooting 'analog' cultivates an intuitive experience for her, so she loves shooting with manual cameras, for the organic quality, color saturation, grain, tone, warmth, and detail that is eminent in film photography.
