Who's Carlin?

I love life – people, nature, the laughter, the tears, and all between.  That is why I photograph – to capture and root fleeting moments, so they may blossom into our future, bringing comfort, love, and hope with every visitation.   Every moment is a gift of Life, so photography is a gift of eternal moments.

Everybody has an indescribable, inner beauty.  In our photoshoots together, it's about highlighting your internal light, creating soulful images and a fun experience together.

Formally, I am trained as a professional pianist, where I developed a deep connection with people, the environment, and myself.  Music and photography strike the same internal chord, merely on different instruments.  A photography session is like chamber music, where I partner with others to discover and create beauty between and within us.

Besides working with individuals and smaller ensembles, I have also photographed for larger organizations, such as Aspen Music Festival, Boston University Tanglewood Institute, Seattle Symphony, Music@Menlo, and others San Francisco Conservatory of Music.  Each photo session is tailored to the needs and vision of the client’s image.  With love and passion, I devote myself to tell their story.

Contact me for further details, and I will be happy to talk with you.  Feel free to refer to the FAQ page or my testimonial page.
