Hello, I’m Celina. I wear many hats and embrace being perfectly imperfect- a walking contradiction who finds beauty in everything.

I’m a visual art addict, a working mom to Mathis and Elsie, a loyal friend, a hopeless romantic, and someone who still believes in magic. Professionally, I’m the Artistic Director and content strategist for CrownRing | Noam Carver, a bridal company.

I also teach photography here and lead workshops in Montreal on photography and social media. Over the years, I’ve collaborated with brands like Disney, eBay and JCrew, built a Pinterest following of over 3 million.

Storytelling is at the heart of everything I do. I’ve been drawn to documentary photography for over a decade—capturing real, quiet, and messy moments. Lately, I’ve fallen in love with film again, developing and scanning at home and dreaming of one day building a darkroom.

Born into a half British, half Moroccan family, I’ve lived in Montreal since I was five. I love coffee, vintage finds, florals & stripes, anything Japanese, and all the colors.

I dance often, stay up too late, and am always happy to try something new—especially if it feels a little unexpected and fun.
