About
I’ve been passionate about photography since I was young. At 16, my mother bought me my first DSLR and I started my first “photography business”. Since then, I’ve been learning and growing in my craft, and falling more and more in love with it.
I love candids and making real memories come to life in a tangible form for clients. The beautiful photos and reactions from clients once they receive their photos back is my reason to keep going!

THE BEST experience working with Carissa! She was responsive, answered all my questions and was incredibly helpful in figuring out the logistics. Carissa did an amazing job working with our family to capture all our photos in an efficient amount of time. She went above and beyond to ensure the process was fun and seamless. The photos turned out AMAZING! Carissa has her own style of photography which we really loved and we appreciate that our beach photos are unique, timeless and creative. We highly recommend Carissa to capture your special moments! Don’t even think about it; book with her!

Working with Carissa was an absolute dream. I booked her for a Halloween-inspired shoot at the historic Bonaventure Cemetery, and from start to finish, she blew me away. She was so easy to work with—professional but personable, creative but collaborative. She understood the vibe I was going for and elevated it with her unique artistic touch.
Not only did she scout stunning angles and play with light in the most magical way, but she also made me feel confident and comfortable throughout the session. Her turnaround time was so quick, and the final edits were perfection. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about their work and the experience they deliver, she’s the one. 10/10 recommend!
Details: Solo portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • I'm flexible • My home, venue, etc.

Working with Carissa was amazing! She made the weekend for my now fiancée and me so perfect. I can’t recommend her enough. She was super responsive to all of my messages, her turn around time on the actual images was great. She returned the album way sooner than expected. As an overall whole, I am so glad I was able to connect with her for my engagement needs. Thank you again Carissa!
