I signed up for Carmen’s “Come As You Are” photoshoot, wanting to step out of my comfort zone and do something for myself, but not really knowing what to expect; the experience I had with her far exceeded anything I could have imagined! She is a true artist, skilled in her craft. What she does isn’t simple portrait photography, but capturing who you are. My photoshoot with her showed me a side of myself I’ve never seen in photo, with an expert-level attention to detail. The photos she captured of me are beautiful! I haven’t felt as good about myself as I did looking at those photos in a long time! Carmen is also very personable and caring; it was so easy to become comfortable in her presence. I hope to experience working with her again some day.

Carmen is a gifted individual, who made me feel like a model. Our photoshoot felt effortless and easy going. She sparked creativity within me during our photoshoot and inspired an atmosphere that allowed me to breathe and let go. Her eye for detail is astonishing. Carmen, thank you for a wonderful experience and I'm grateful for your artistic view. You are a breath of fresh air.

Carmen is phenomenal. She is such a fantastic photographer! From our first chat to the shoot day, she made the whole experience so comfortable and fun. She paid close attention to every detail we discussed and made sure my personality came through in each photo. She’s patient, kind, and truly talented at what she does. The photoshoot was a 100% experience. I had an absolute blast and felt so confident the entire time. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about their craft and their clients! 🤗

Not just a photography session but an experience of self care, self compassion and self celebration. Carmen has a warmth that disarms nervousness and builds confidence. Whether you hang your new art proudly for all to see or you keep them as private mementos of pride to reflect on years from now; she’ll capture you feeling your absolute best self. The pang of uncomfortable vanity quickly turns to a celebration of you and all that you are / been through / hope to be. Thank you Carmen, that was a blast!

I didn't know what I was looking for exactly when I approached Carmen. I just told her I was looking to find "me" and to be able to capture that person as a gift for my family. Carmen has an amazing ability and talent that can see the beauty in a person and can capture it for all to see. She went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations with her professionalism. She was able to find the joy in our family pictures and to find "me" in my individual photos. She was attentive and patient making me feel comfortable and relaxed. Thank you Carmen for the amazing gift you gave me and my family. They are images that we will treasure.
