As a photographer of over five years, I've created a system that makes minis a breeze! Gone are the days you have to worry about how to pose, what to do, and what to wear. From beginning to end, I hold your hand and walk you through every step. I believe in transparency and communication and embody an experience that honors that.

I cannot wait to see your family this upcoming season. Let's make the best of it.

We love working with Carmen! My husband and I have worked with her for a couple years now for mini sessions. With two young (opinionated!) sons, we love taking periodic family photographs as they grow. Carmen clearly has lots of experience working with young kids and somehow manages to capture beautiful photos of our family no matter how rambunctious our family gets during the sessions. She is kind, patient, always communicates well, and takes beautiful photographs. I also love that she offers her mini sessions at a variety of locations, so the pictures never feel stale or repetitive. I highly recommend working with Carmen.
