the man behind the camera
Hey there! I’m Carlos (obviously)…
I take photos, crack jokes, and make sure you walk away looking like a million bucks. As a professional photographer with over a decade of experience, I specialize in bold, clean imagery that commands attention. My work has been published in OBVIOUS Magazine, KRAVE Magazine, SNUBB3D Magazine, and more.
With over 13 years of experience as a fashion and portrait photographer, I’m here to capture the moments that define you - bold, sophisticated, and uniquely you. My passion for photography began when I was just 8 years old, playing around with my mom’s Polaroid camera. Little did I know that curiosity would turn into a lifelong career dedicated to the art of photography.
Before photography, I spent 10 years teaching 5th graders (so trust me, I can handle almost any photoshoot situation). I later worked as an academic advisor, helping college students navigate their next steps.
My style? Think clean, bold, and timeless - especially in black and white. It’s a look that my clients love because it not only looks striking but also brings out the essence of who they are.
With a Master of Education (M.Ed) degree from the Louisiana State University (GEAUX TIGERS!), I’ve combined my passion for teaching with my love of photography. I’ve taught countless workshops on business strategies and lighting techniques, sharing my expertise with aspiring photographers.
I’ve had the privilege of photographing some incredible people - celebrities, athletes, supermodels, and, most importantly, people just like you.

My ‘Why’
My ‘why’ is to honor the essence of each individual, capturing moments that speak to their strength, ambition, and authenticity. Photography, for me, is more than just an art form; it’s a way to empower clients to own their stories and make bold statements in a world that often overlooks them. Through my work, I aim to make a lasting impact, one that goes beyond the frame and into the hearts and minds of those who see it.
