Christina Sandrock was born in Freiburg in Breisgau (Germany) in 1977. She developed her interest in photography relatively late.
At the age of 22 she obtained her first camera. Many trips, mainly through Asia, trained her eye and the camera became her permanent companion.

After high school Christina applied to study in photography at Lette Verein Berlin and graduated in 2004. Later she worked as a freelance photography assistant for various photographers, including Frank P. Wartenberg, and was able to strengthen her professional know how and technique.

Beside other genres of photography she shifted the focus of her work to the theme of water, marine lifestyle and the underwater world. The underwater photography has been a complete success for the passionate sports diver Christina Sandrock. Diving with manta rays and her camera was the magical moment when she was truly hooked to it.
Her photographs are staged and they impress the beholder with unusual
perspectives, and surrealism that defies gravity.
 

Professionals in synchronised swimming, costume designers and make up artists are part of the team. Specialists on underwater missions which are available on demand as a full production service of Christina Sandrock Photography.

"Working together with people in the creative business has enriched my photographic life . I love to capture and freeze movements, because images give a perpetual and enjoyable impulse to the beholder irrespective of time and space".

Würde, Stolz und Menschlichkeit sprechen aus den Bildern der Foto-Designerin Christina Sandrock, die im Jahr 2005 überlebende Sinti und Roma der rassistischen NS-Verfolgung porträtierte.

In scharfem Kontrast stehen die Bilder zu Symbolen des totalen Vernichtungswillens der Nationalsozialisten: Überformatigen Ausschnittfotografien aus dem Vernichtungslager Auschwitz-Birkenau. Die bemerkenswerte Installation kommt fast ohne Worte aus. Lediglich kurze, biografische Angaben wachsen gleichsam vor den Portraits, zusammen mit Blumen als Symbolen neuen Lebens und neuer Lebenshoffnung, aus der Erde.
