Kentucky Photographer Christina Ramsey: A Journey Through Childhood

It wasn’t that long ago that a friend pointed out Christina Ramsey of Christina Ramsey Photography after a discussion about using the Saturday Evening Post magazine covers as photographic inspiration. Her images remind me of a bygone era that has been rediscovered. In her own words she describes her purpose as wanting to take the viewer through a “journey of childhood.”

Looking through her portfolio, this is exactly what I saw, childhood as I would imagine it through the eyes of the child. She describes her two children as her inspiration for her fine art and when I asked Christina about her kids, her response really summed up what I already felt when viewing her images…

“My son is 3 ½ years old and my little girl is 21 months old. They are an absolute delight. My son, South, is a character. He doesn’t meet a stranger and can have you laughing so hard in a matter of minutes. He is all boy too. Like I said he’s only 3 ½ years old and has already had 7 stitches! He is just now starting to take care of his baby sister and it makes me so happy. I always said that when I had kids I wanted a boy and girl and that I wanted the boy to be older so he could protect his baby sister. I try to portray that in my photos of them. I think it really does come across just how much they love and care for each other. As for my little girl, Autumn, she is an angel. I mean an absolute angel. She is even sweeter than she looks. I always say that God gave me such a sweet baby girl because he knows I can’t handle another boy like South, lol! I love that she is starting to show her cute little personality. She really loves her big brother too. I’m pretty sure she thinks he hung the moon. They are a blessing and I love capturing these precious moments with them while they are so young.” ~ C. Ramsey
