About Carla

Inspired to share her gift of capturing priceless images, Carla launched her photography business in 2005. Since then, she has photographed Hundrends of children and families in Silicon Valley/Bay Area.

Her fresh style and contemporary flair bring out the true beauty, spirit, and individuality of everyone and everything she photographs. ”

Carla specializes in fresh, fun photography sessions that result in images you will cherish for a lifetime. She puts families at ease, connecting with children of all ages. They can relax and be themselves —resulting in beautiful portraits that reflect the child’s true spirit.

Away from her business she can often be found with her family. Her twin girls and supportive husband. Can't forget her darling doodle, Fozzie Bear!


“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” — FERRIS BUELLER
