About the Artist
Graduating from a technical photography school, Carol began her career as a commercial photographer, but soon found she enjoyed the creativity and spontaneity of the images she created outside the commercial studio. Her photographic interests soon evolved and she pursued freelance work while taking on positions in various fields.
"I found that more often than not, I could 'feel' what the light on a subject was trying to say. There's an emotional connection to most of the images I capture."
Several years later, wanting to explore her other interests, Carol made a career change. Earning her degree in Exercise Physiology, she has worked in cardiology and rehabilitation.
Since 2006, and being treated for physical trauma, she has since returned to her creative roots. With new eyes and a rekindled passion, she states, “I can totally immerse myself in the making of an image. Hours elapse, but seem like minutes. It is in this image making that I find fulfillment.”
