Behind the Lens
ABOUT carina
Enneagram 8, lover of breakfast tacos & dumplings, and travel obsessed.
A San Antonio portrait and wedding photographer, and I’m so happy you’re here!
I’m also a proud mama, which has given me a whole new perspective on the little moments that make life so special. These days, I’m focusing more on lifestyle and portrait photography because I believe every story—big or small—deserves to be captured.
Before photography, I worked as a Finance Manager at one of the top hotels in Texas, where I learned all about five-star customer service and the importance of creating memorable experiences. That’s where my passion for serving clients started, and it’s what drives me to make every photo session as stress-free and enjoyable as possible for you!
Whether it’s your wedding day or a family portrait, I feel truly honored to capture the moments that matter most to you. I can’t wait to create something beautiful together!

This wonderful human. My husband, Robert. Believe it or not, he's as hilarious as he is handsome. Still pinching myself, because I can't believe I got so lucky!

Spending time traveling and trying new restaurants, cooking breakfast and lounging on the sofa, and gym dates that end with smoothies or acai bowls.

Never having enough pairs of shoes, shopping for workout clothes, and water bottles. Watching Disney movies on repeat. And always having room for dessert after dinner.

From eating delicious food from Michelin Star hawker stalls to the worlds largest infinity pool! Inspired by the movie Crazy Rich Asians, our Singapore trip was definitely my favorite!
