Capturing the Essence of Life


Capturing the essense of life

I'm a Christian and a child of Jesus! I was born and raised a GA girl all my life (GO DAWGS and GO BRAVES!) I have over 15 years of experience in the photography world. I've studied under some of the best in the business and enjoy helping others do the same. I love to travel for photography events and sessions and I'm always up for new places and new people to meet. My photo style is light with some bright or bold colors to make you pop! I love to laugh and have fun and it always rubs off the people around me and those I take photos of. My husband and I are foodies so I can't say I have a favorite type or place. We are sports people in our house so come prepared to talk some stats but I'm also a sucker for a good romance movie, which definitely shows in many of my wedding and engagement photos. I have been blessed by God with a supportive husband and and two sons who are both smart, loving and take after their daddy. (If you know my husband, you know what fun I have in my household) My oldest son is already taking after me with his love for the camera. When I'm not doing photography, I'm a Stay-at-Home mom homeschooling my two boys and spending all the time I can with them while they are still young. I look forward to capturing the essence of your life.

Your Fine Art Arkansas Photographer

Hi, I'm Karla

weddings

am so excited you're here. I hope you enjoy getting to know a little more about me.

Say Hello
families

After graduating from high school, I moved to Savannah, GA and attended Armstrong Atlantic State University. It was there I learned that photography was my passion. I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Art in Photography and decided to make the beautiful town of Savannah and all it has to offer my place to set up my studio.

In August 2021, my family and I packed up our lives in Georgia and moved to Arkansas so my husband could chase his dream of being in ministry. I am excited to be moving my business to Arkansas and learning the beautiful natural wonders and getting to photograph them behind my all wonderful clients.

began my love for photography when I was in high school. Taking a picture and seeing it develop into my own became exciting.

Karla,
You were such an amazing photographer and overall person to have present on our big day. I can't tell you how appreciative Corey and I were to have you there and to keep us organized and sane. Again, I just can't thank you enough and I have many people getting married soon so I will be sure to pass your name along. 
- Emily and Corey + the dogs

"This day will forever be special to me and Ethan for more reasons than one and we were so happy to have such an amazing photographer to share it with and be able to cherish those special moments!"
- Morgan and Ethan

"Karla did a spectacular job photographing my daughter's special day! From the hair and make-up all the way through the exit shots. She was extremely organized, knew who was to be in the specials shots and was completely flexible when we came up with ideas of our own. During the ceremony and reception she worked seamlessly. I was never interrupted to pose for a specific shot. It was an amazing day and Karla made sure it was completely captured! By the way, this was a destination wedding for everyone and working with Karla long distance was always easy." - Celeste

“Karla and Travis were amazing! They are not only great photographers, but also great people and we really enjoyed hanging out with them during the wedding and reception. We will definitely be hiring them when we have kids to do a shoot for that. You will love them! - Greg
