"I had the pleasure of working with Carina for our engagement session, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we met, she radiated a sense of calm and professionalism that instantly put us at ease. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and she genuinely seemed excited about capturing our love story through her lens.

One thing that really stood out to me about Carina was her adventurous spirit. She encouraged us to step out of our comfort zones and take photos in busy public places, which added an extra element of excitement to the shoot. Despite the hustle and bustle around us, she managed to create a relaxed and intimate atmosphere that allowed us to be ourselves and truly enjoy the moment.

Throughout the session, she had a wonderful way of blending creativity and spontaneity. She had a keen eye for unique angles and details, and she wasn't afraid to think outside the box to capture something truly special. Her enthusiasm was contagious, and it was clear that she was passionate about her craft.

I can't wait to see how she brings our love story to life on our big day. Thank you for everything, and thank you for making our engagement session so memorable"

Carina is incredibly talented! Her personality and direction made the session feel so natural. She captured truly beautiful images of my family. Leading up to the session she was very responsive and helpful for what to expect. When looking at my gallery I caught myself saying out loud “this one is my favorite” and almost immediately saying the same thing about the next photo. We would highly recommend Carina to anyone we know and look forward to working with her again!"

Before my session with Carina I was feeling a little camera shy. As soon as she began shooting my nervousness escaped me. She made me more than comfortable as she gave me direction on how to pose and also came with creative ideas for my headshots. She was fun and energetic and it allowed for my personality to show through my photos. Her editing style is unique and impressive. I love the  way she showcases her moody style while staying true to naturally existing tones and colors. I am looking forward to working with Carina again in the future."

Carina came and took 6 month photos of my little one. The experience was great and we got some amazing photos and memories! Carina was so great with my little one. She was very patient with my little when the smiles were absolutely not happening. Overall it was a great experience and I am very glad that we chose Carina to capture these moments!"

I fell in love with Carina’s editing style - dark and moody while the colors remain vibrant and true. In our session, she was very personable and social. I couldn’t believe how much I felt like we connected (despite being near strangers) and she truly brought out the best in my partner and I. She made us feel very comfortable and gave us great direction which made the resulting photos INCREDIBLE. I love how she was able to capture our relationship so purely - I can’t wait to display our gallery throughout our home!"

A tender moment between parent and newborn baby in soft, intimate lighting.

She was absolutely wonderful to work with! The images she captured of our family and newborn were beautiful and raw—we love them. She did a wonderful job with our other kiddos and was gentle and kind. She provided great communication, was efficient in her time for the session and we felt so comfortable immediately with her. Her personality is the type you feel like you’ve known each other a long time as soon as you meet. We received our images with in only a couple days! Highly highly recommend for your photography needs!!"
