Carolyn and her husband Bruno originally lived in New York City. She felt the California landscape was the perfect backdrop to her fresh and colorful photography, so they relocated to Southern California 10 years ago. Besides the invaluable knowledge garnered from her modeling and acting careers, Carolyn has taken numerous photography classes and seminars, including studying at the prestigious Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. She has won numerous awards in various art competitions and has been published in several national publications.

Carolyn especially enjoys photographing weddings because she knows the images will be cherished for generations, and she always feels honored when she is chosen to document such an important milestone. The images from her own wedding 11 years ago were disappointing and she strives to give her clients better images than they could have imagined.

Carolyn continues to do some modeling and acting, which helps her become a better photographer. "It gives me better insight into both sides of the equation," she says. "Certain elements of photography cannot be taught. Although passion is necessary, it is not enough," Carolyn says. She explains, "when I put my camera up to my eye, the world moves in slow motion and is somehow more colorful, more beautiful, more innocent."
