A professional and fully-guided studio photoshoot experience that helps you look and feel your best
I’ll take you step-by-step from start to finish. Starting with discovering what type of photoshoot experience you’re looking for through a conversation about you and your goals, we spend the time to plan every step so you can feel confident and relaxed, not nervous and unsure. Professional styling and session planning are all part of the process that ensures this experience is fulfilling and grounding. Your photoshoot experience will take place in my cozy and welcoming downtown Red Deer photo studio where I love to welcome everyday people from all walks of life. I can’t wait to get to know you more.

“I am just elated and feel so confident as a woman. Carmen made me feel comfortable stepping out of my comfort zone and is truly blessed with a talent. She captured everything I ever imagined in a short amount of time. I am so grateful and just truly blessed to have been given this day.”
Janelle, Red Deer
Our photoshoot specialties include classic and magazine style portraiture for women 35 and beyond, boudoir-alternative photography for women 35 and beyond, modern maternity sessions, and headshots and personal branding photography for professionals and entrepreneurs.
Who am I, and who are these photoshoots for?
As a person I value authenticity, and as a photographer I celebrate it. In this studio, your photo shoot is an experience designed to make you feel comfortable with the unique person you are - extroverted, reserved, sensual, modest, joyful or reflective - and to capture you as you wish you could be seen. It’s designed to make you feel connected, strong, and valued. It’s designed to remind you of your importance and worth.
I take pride in building relationships that allow people to relax in this space and that make photo sessions fun and fulfilling. Professional hair and makeup are included in each session, and you won’t be worried for a moment about where to put your hands - I’ll observe your natural body language then direct your movements to bring out your beauty in such a way that you’ll never be able to say “but I’m not photogenic” again.
I serve clients of any gender and gender expression. I love to photograph maternity in a modern way, and I can photograph traditional headshots or nontraditional professional portraits. I find special fulfillment in connecting with and creating portraits for women 35 and above - there is something very special to me about helping women my age and older rediscover what they love about themselves now.
It’s my goal to take the best photos you have ever seen of yourself. To give you a memorable and meaningful experience and to create art for your walls that will remind you every day of your strength, beauty, resilience and determination.
Let’s turn you into art!
